- implemented XOTclObjInfoHasMixinMethod() and XOTclObjInfoHasTypeMethod() - renamed "$obj info hasnamespace" to "$obj info has namespace" - added "$obj info has mixin $class" - added "$obj info has type $class" - extended regression test for parametercheck/objectproperty/is

  1. … 6 more files in changeset.

  1. … 5 more files in changeset.
- changed info to new interface (partly done for nx, migration for xotcl to be done)

  1. … 4 more files in changeset.
- added object info methods mixinguard, mixinclasses to objectInfoMethod - added class info methods mixinguard, mixinclasses to classInfoMethod - built a temporary solution for dispatcher "mixin", since forward mangles args - nx: we have now "obj info mixin guard name" instead of "obj info filter -guard name" - nx: we have now "obj info mixin classes ...." instead of "obj info filter ...." - updated migration guide

  1. … 11 more files in changeset.

  1. … 7 more files in changeset.
- experimental method-property "class-only": this allows to make object save against per-object mixins of meta-classes. the flag is only used in the mixin-resolver - used for the time being in nx only for Class.info, but would apply as well for methods defined on both Object and Class.

  1. … 4 more files in changeset.
- changed __invalidateobjectparameter from a method of class to framework primitiv ::nsf::invalidateobjectparameter

  1. … 5 more files in changeset.
- made Class.info, Class.mixin, Class.filter robust against per-object mixins from meta-classes - extended regression test

  1. … 5 more files in changeset.
- changed "info method filter ...." into "info callable filter ..." - fixed "o info callable method" in some cases with mixins - extended regression test - updated migration guide

  1. … 6 more files in changeset.
- renamed "info method name ..." into "info method handle ...", since it returned already the handle - renamed ListMethodName() to ListMethodHandle() - changed output of "info callable -which ..." from definition to method handle - renamed "info callable -which ..." into "info callable method ..." - updated regression test to reflect the changes

  1. … 13 more files in changeset.
- removed method "filtersearch" from nx.tcl - added "obj info method filter methodName" to nx - updated xotcl.2 to use new filtersearch imprementation - updated migration guide

  1. … 5 more files in changeset.
- implemented return value checker (for scripted and c-implemented methods) - additional methodproperty returns (for registering a return value checker) - support for incrementally adding stuff to paramDefs (such as slotobj or return value) - new c-function ParamDefsNew() - added regression test for return value checker

  1. … 7 more files in changeset.
- made the "next scripting laguage" a own, loadable tcl package (currently named nx, name is subject of change) - predefined.tcl is now pretty minimal.

  1. … 32 more files in changeset.
- xotcl.c: * new function GetObjectFromNsName() to obtail object or class from a fully qualified namespace name used in method handles (such as e.g. ::nx::core::classes::X) * new function MethodHandleObj() to return a tcl_obj containing the methodhandle * removed obsolete method getFullProcQualifier() * info methods obtain now object and/or class from fully qualified method names (method handles) if possible * return message handles in "current next", "current filterreg" and "... info filter ... -order", which can be used in "info method .... " for obtaining more details. * change all occurrances of "self" in next regression tests to current. - xotcl2.tcl * implemented "self" as a proc to provide extensibility and full backward compatibilty; this opens opportunity to replace now e.g. "self proc" by "current method", etc. * provide full compatibility for "self next", "self filterreg" and "... info filter ... -order", returning old-style multiword method handles (such as e.g. "::C instproc foo") - changed "next" to current in documentation framework and templates

  1. … 19 more files in changeset.
- deactivated __next for now - iterated thought doc.tcl-TODOs - fixed path in invocation of xotcl doc script

  1. … 11 more files in changeset.
- renamed mk_predefined.xotcl -> mk_predefined.tcl - renamed predefined.xotcl -> predefined.tcl - additional subcommand "info method parametersyntax <methodname>" returns parameters in a syntax similar to the tcl man pages - added ability to pass syntax for forwarded methods via set ::nx::core::signature(::nx::Object-method-forward) (experimental) - fixed documentation system to work with actual version - added undocumented methods for quality control in documentation - added checks for documented, but unavailable methods in documentation - added comparison of documented parameters vs. actual parameters in documentation

  1. … 17 more files in changeset.
- changed "require next" to "... nx" - changed "require next::test" to "... nx::test" - changed "require next::doc" to "... nx::doc"

  1. … 33 more files in changeset.
- Implemented "Class info parameter" in Tcl, aliases for xotcl. Now both definition of parameters and setting of __parameter are in Tcl.

  1. … 6 more files in changeset.
- changed prefix from "::next::" to "::nx"

  1. … 21 more files in changeset.
- namespace changes: mostly due to marketing reasons, the naming of the top-level namespace changed from "xotcl2" to "next". reasons: xotcl is hard to pronounce for beginners, sounds like "exotic" (but who wants to program in an exotic language) has a certain stigma of strange namings (e.g. "instproc"), is seen as a precursor of tcloo, the top-level namespace ::xotcl2:: is not very nice either, the separation of framework and language is not clear.

We have now:

::next (the new object system, former ::xotcl2)

::next::core (framework, primitives)

::xotcl (former xotcl1)

- "::xotcl::use" no longer needed, use Tcl standard mechanisms instead

(e.g. "package req next"; "package req XOTcl", "namespace import ::next*")

  1. … 48 more files in changeset.
- ::xotcl:.configure: added option "keepinitcmd" to flag, whether or not initcmds should be kept as instance variables

  1. … 6 more files in changeset.
- add check for optional match arguments in tcl stub generator - fix potential memory leaks all "definitely losts" from valgrind (except 24 bytes from Tcl_PkgRequire) gone

  1. … 3 more files in changeset.
- first part of allowing arbitrary named internally called methods.

  1. … 5 more files in changeset.
- use "CONST char *" in generated interface and below

  1. … 5 more files in changeset.
- defined "xotcl::current" as synonym for "::xotcl::self" - new options for ::xotcl::current current object == current current method == current proc current callingmethod == current callingproc - "self proc" and friends are for backward compatibility for xotcl1, "current method" and friends are for xotcl2 - namespace exported "::xotcl::current"

  1. … 4 more files in changeset.
- renaming of instance variable specific primitiva for more constistency with ::xotcl::importvar:

::xotcl::exists -> ::xotcl::existsvar

::xotcl::setinstvar -> ::xotcl::setvar
