- reduce verbosity - redoce scope of variables

- adding spaces after comma in argument lists

- fix typos in string "unknown" (unknwon, unkown)

- provide backward compatibility for unknwon method (when method contains spaces). - some minor cleanup - extended regression test

- TODO: Added an entry concerning callstack introspection (as discussed today) - generic/nsf.c: Some minor renaming in NsfOConfigureMethod(); made sure that intermediate frames resulting from forward-parameter dispatches are equally marked INACTIVE. - tests/disposition.test: Added tests covering uplevel/upvar support under parameter/disposition dispatches (i.e., uplevel and upvar calls from within parameter-dispatched methods); the tests also cover XOTcl's residualargs dispatches.

- generic/nsf.c / CallConfigureMethod() + CmdMethodDispatch(): Rephrased the accompanying docstrings slightly, to align the documentation to the underlying implementation details.

- generic/nsf.c / NsfOConfigureMethod(): Configure adds frames to its callstack context, however, so far the callstack modifications have not honoured the fact that configure() can be called from uplevel'ed call sites. The callstack context resulting from a prior uplevel was erased by the call frame introductions. As a consequence, parameter-dispatched methods found themselves in a wrong variable frame context. The suggested patch adds uplevel awareness in the most generic way I could think of. The entire test suite runs against the patched NsfOConfigureMethod(). However, I might be missing unwanted consequences for untested cases ... we need to think of further test scenarios ...

- generic/nsf.c: Provide the [current class] context to submethods

- tests/disposition.test: Added some tests on the interaction of

INACTIVE frames (mixin, filter) and submethods

- tests/submethods.test: Testing [current class] context for submethods

- generic/nsfStack.c: Revised my former patch for traversing callstacks under ensemle dispatches. We fixed the traversal-ending gateway expression; and added transparency for INACTIVE frames when assembling the method path. Added further tests, remain to be completed ...

- Reduced verbosity in nsf.c, reactivated a test case

- tests/forward.test, tests/methods.test: Remove some intermediary statements

- nsfStack.c / CallStackMethodPath(): Providing a fix for reporting method paths correctly when dispatching to ensembles from alias parameters. Prior to that fix, the intermediate (and inactive) CMETHOD frame wrapping configure() calls caused [current methodpath]s to report empty string elements. Added some test cases. - nsf.c / ObjectDispatch(), DispatchUnknownMethod(): When testing objects as alias parameter targets, I found cases when the default (C-level) unknown handler was invoked upon. The result was an unknown message which reported the delegator object as "unknown" method! This was due to injecting the delegator object into the argument vector at position 0, subsequently used by the C-level unknown handler. First, I tried to make the C-level unknown handler aware of the ensemble call context (by funneling through the CSC and frame flags) but this turned out to be complicated to achieve this simple task. As an alternative, I suggest the following patch: The first argument in unknown calls is treated as a list, and dependening on the call context (ensemble vs. non-ensemble) contains all the necessary call data. For ensemble methods, it is the delegator object, the entire method path (as returned by [current methodpath]), and the actual unknown selector. The default C-level handler, treating the call info as list, resorts to reporting the last element of the list which is always the unknown selector. Custom (ensemble-level, application-level) unknown handler can wrap and further process the information as necessary. To demonstrate the usefulness, I rewrote EnsembleObject->unknown() accordingly. I checked for Tcl_Obj leaks. - Added some tests on objects as targets of alias object parameter. To be continued.

- nsf.c: * report only fully initialized slot objects via "info slots" to avoid chicken-egg problem during method "objectparameter" * added flag -array to ::nsf::var::exists to check, whether the variable is an array (to avoid "o eval {array exists ...}" in the serializer. * provided flags to VarExists instead of multiple args * don't add new pointer entries in Nsf_PointerTypeLookup()

- correct result type

- mongodb interface: * mongo::gridfile::seek: added a seek command for gridfiles * added example for the low-level interface to shwo how to access gridfs via the plain mongodb interface, how to add some additional metadata (e.g. dublin core meta data) and how to retrieve this via the gridfile interface

- library/nx/nx.tcl: Fixed Attribute->reconfigure() to cover the reconfiguration of a default value in the per-object case ... - tests/parameters.test: Added Victor Mayevski's example as a proper test case. Details need to be discussed ...

- C-code generator: * additional parameter swith "-withObj" to allow passing of internal representation and the according TclObj * * c-implemented methods: report types in "info parameter" for more builtin types. * use "-withObj" in mongodb interface * adapted regression test

- generic/nsf.c: Shuffled around the word order and adding some quoting in the error message for enforcing multivalued, non-empty list multiplicities; to differentiate between parameter name and value literals etc.

- nsf.c: no good reason to disallow user defined types for for alias, forward or initcmd

- generic/nsf.c: Re-introduce trimming for "names" of unknown parameter options.

- generic/nsf.c: Aligned error messages for parameter options; Re-arranged control flow in ParamOptionParse() slightly, do allow for [string is] types being used as options of disposition types. Refactored code slightly (e.g., removed unneeded, intermediary Tcl_Objs). - tests/disposition.test: Extended test suite, in particular, for covering multiplicity types as parameter options of disposition types. - tests/parameters.test: Adjusting for rephrased error messages.
