MongoDB - added "nx::mongo::db drop collection /name/" - returning status from "nx::mongo::db remove" as success (0 or 1)
2-1-0-rc + 55 more
TODO (+1 -0)
2566 2566     the code generator usable for submodules as well
2567 2567
2568 2568 - added flag ?-type ...? to "info lookup slots"
2569 2569 - made all useful converters external symbols
2570 2570 - added flag ?-type ...? to "info slots"
2571 2571 - delete accessor when slot is destroyed
2572 2572 - added pattern to "info slots"
2573 2573 - added to "info slot /attName/"
2574 2574
2575 2575 - Fixed dispatch of defaultmethod for ensemble methods
2576 2576 - Added compile flag DISPATCH_ALWAYS_DEFINED_METHODS (deactivated).
2577 2577   So far, nx just uses dispatch on overloads or filters, but not on
2578 2578   defines (possible to call e.g. "destroy" from a script, but
2579 2579   internally the direct dispatch is used, as long there is no
2580 2580   overload). The compileflag would force to use the slower
2581 2581   dispatch always.
2582 2582 - Extended regression test
2583 2583 - Improve locality
2584 2584
2585 2585 - Let "info slot" return the slot object
  2586 - nx::mongo: Initial commit of the experimental mongoDB interface for nx
2586 2587
2587 2588 TODO:
2588 2589 - how to delete attributes?
2589 2590
2590 2591 - Higher binary compatibility for future versions:
2591 2592   * It is not nice to have the full Nsf_Param structure in nsf.h
2592 2593     (required for Nsf_methodDefinition in the c code generator)
2593 2594   * It is not nice to have the full ParseContext structure in nsfmongo
2594 2595     (required for the allocation of the parse context in the stubs)
2595 2596   Adding fields to these structures would kill alder binaries
2596 2597 - not all converters have already external symbols
2597 2598
2598 2599 - when alloc|dealloc are loaded via require, we have
2599 2600   no redefined-protection on those. Since the script does not know,
2600 2601   on which class|object these are defined one cannot make assumption
2601 2602   on these. Problem?
2602 2603 - The structure of the script body requires currently that
2603 2604   "class|object ?-per-object?" is inserted at the 1nd pos.
2604 2605   This is not sufficient, if we would like to test in this
2605 2606   script, whether the first arg is e.g. a class.
