- parameter specs: use "arg=" in object parameter type "method" as name of a called method to allow to call unregistered methods - eliminate protected method "noinit" for nx and allow it just as an object parameter

- library/lib/doc-tools.tcl: Added a link renderer for Tcl commands, pointing to the tcl.tk online reference; usage: <<tclcmd /cmd/>>. - library/nx/nx.nxd: Fixed glossary references pointing to mixin classes. - glossary.html.tmpl: Made the tmpl more robust against the non-existence of glossary entries. - method.html.tmpl: Made Type and Protection fully conditional - doc-tools.tcl: added a @project.is_validated attribute to reflect the validation status of a given project. this should later turn into a derived property. - langRef.xotcl: added a missing </tt> closing tag, to avoid tt pollution of the remaining document space.

- nsf.nxd: Completed a first draft version of the NSF reference (needs to be revised and improved in further iterations) - doc-tools.tcl: Fixed an issue with closing comment blocks (the last comment line closes with an eof), previously dropped silently by the processor.

- library/lib/doc-tools.tcl: added [pinfo append] to collect multiple validation reports per entity - library/lib/doc-tools.tcl / owned_parts(): skip entities which are not structured themselves (namely parameters); otherwise they show up in the lefthand navigation or the autosearch box. also: glossary entries now disappeared from these navigation items (do we need them there?). - library/lib/doc-assets/command.html.tmpl: validation reports need to be fused using [join] - library/lib/doc-assets/command.html.tmpl: fixed subcommand support; adjusted and refined the per-command template, as well as @command validation. - Provided for parameter validation for @command and the extraction of the parametersyntax for commands - nsf.nxd: Added to the NSF documentation, namely completed a first round commands ::nsf::alias throughout ::nsf::log. Also: Refactored some glossary entries to nsf.nxd. - glossary: glossary entries can now be shared between projects; this required to make the back references aware of their project context. - @project: added a depends attribute which can be used to express inter-project dependencies. - An empty @doc string is now reported during validation - processor->process(): Added include/exclude filtering based on namespace patterns

- removed method "setter" from nx - nx method "attribute": changed name of nonposarg from "slotclass" to "class" - fix bug for "C class-object attribute foo" (incorrect forwarder) - extended regression test

- Changed parametersyntax visualisation to show variable/replacable elements in italics. - Rewrote the method template for attribute accessors/mutators - Revised and refactored the resolution helper of member entities along an inheritance path to reflect member overloading - Reduced verbosity

- Adjusted the TODOs - Completed marking internally-called methods and provided a first documentation draft for them. - Fixed the indentation level for code listings - Now using method.html.tmpl to render per-object methods in class.html.tmpl - Fixed return (out parameter) validation

  1. … 4 more files in changeset.
- "/obj/ info method parametersyntax /method/": return results of ::nsf::parametersyntax in case, the parametersyntax cannot obtained from a parameter definition (e.g. the method is a forwarder to a tcl cmd).

- Adjusted for multiplicity types - Added new templates: attributemethod.html.tmpl is responsible for rendering accessor/mutators for attribute slots, object.html.tmpl for objects. - I now render attribute slots both in their object parameter view & a method view. Furthermore, I distinguish between the incremental vs. ordinary interface (as requested). - Fixed div boxing scheme (again) - Adjusted various places (method.html.tmpl, submethod.html.tmpl) to display the status marks (more to come) - Streamlined the method views, introducing Type and Protection sections - Started adopting the /obj/ prefix in parameter listings - Made the @use mechanism working again (under validation). Once tiny bit needs to be fixed: The upward propagation of status messages if @use is in place. - Removed the cause for redundant validation calls by traversing the entity hierarchy only once. - Added nx-specific tracers (to distinguish between ensemble and slot objects, ...) For now, they work fine, but are tangled with non-nx tracing. This needs refactoring. - Added another nx-specific tracer which tackles the issue of the __resolve_method_path helper. While quite cumbersome and coupling nxdoc to many internal design decisions of nx, it turns any change in nx.tcl unnecessary. - Fixed ::nx::doc::handleinfo to deal with objects as methods (the case for intermediate ensemble objects). - Added ::nsf::setter support - Fixed the validation support for submethod structures. - Some cleanup (to be continued)

- improve wording in comment

- introduced a few forms of multiplicty * 0..1 allow empty value * 0..* list, can be empty (equivalent to 0..n) * 1..* list, cannot be empty (equivalent to 1..n) - deprecate multivalued in parameter specs in favor of multiplicty - deprecate allowempty in parameter specs in favor of multiplicty - adjust regression test

- quote name of referenced parameter in error message to ease reading - new parameter checker "parameter", performing an approximate checking for valid parameter specs - set NSF_ARG_CHECK_NONPOS only when there are multiple arguments - remove space checking for NSF_ARG_CHECK_NONPOS in favor of parameter checker

- minor cleanup

- Fixed some naming confusion around @class-object-method - Completed statusmark support down to the @param level - method parameter definitions are now pre-processed during tracing; see ::nx::doc::paraminfo - Continued the pinfo/pdata-based refactoring

Accomplishments: - Completed a first version of the sandboxed (partial) evaluation of Tcl source artifacts (packages, script files, C extensions) based on a dedicated child/slave interp environment: see ::nx::doc::Sandbox; the test suite and the test documentation builts run on it. - Based on this infrastructure, we can now generate a snapshot of a program's structure to be documented (and contrast it to the explicitly documented structure). - Added simplistic css sprites for visualising the doc entity status (extra, missing, mismatch, complete); see also library/lib/doc-assets/status.svg and library/lib/doc-assets/status.png - The entity status is printed optionally along with the print name of an entity - Added switch-like parts to represent properties of doc entities: @deprecated, @stashed, @c-implemented, @syshook. The implementation and use of ::nx::doc::SwitchAttribute should be reviewed after having figured out how to proceed using "switching" objparams. - I provide a multi-property dispatcher as doc-syntactic sugar and for mere convenience: @property

Various:

- Corrected some div-boxing mess in the templates

- Added a filtered helper to process entity collections

- Made the mixin layer infrastructure more symmetric (a revoke operation).

- Added tracers for ::nsf::method and ::nsf::alias (remains to be completed)

- Renamed ::nx::doc to ::nx::processor and turned it into another

mixin layer to trace the doc entity creation in e.g. readin()

- Companion (*.nxd) files: Revised the handling of companion

files. Temporarily moved generic/nsf.nxd in the top-level

directory. We need to find a permanent place as its location is

currently derived from the location of the shared extension. A

candidate is doc/ but this is not linked to the shared extension

location at all.

- processor.readin() now returns a collection of entities created

during its execution.

- Improved robustedness and orthogonality: destroy hooks; the

tag-dispatcher can now handle empty comment lines; when placing NSF

object tracer, we now use the freshly added introspection of an

object system's method aliases.
