* nx.tcl (VariableSlot): Fix value=delete to actually accept and implement "-nocomplain". Added tests (missing so far entirely) and updated the man pages accordingly.

  1. … 6 more files in changeset.
* nx.tcl, parameters.test (defineIncrementalOperations): Make sure value=add and value=delete actually run value checkers and, in case of "convert", pick up the conversion result. Added basic test.

Prepare value=* reform in tests

  1. … 2 more files in changeset.
* nsf.c (ArgumentCheck): Avoid double dispatching to value checkers (built-in and type=*) for "slotset" parameters. Previously, configure and then the value=set (value=add) method triggered one dispatch each. Now, the configure pass skips the check and shifts sole responsibility on the value=set/ value=add methods. Added basic test cases to parameters.test to capture the intended call semantics.

Slot trace reform: - redesign of slot interface of traces from * variables contains cmds and variable references to * slot specific methods with the same interface as slot-setters - new: * specify flag "-trace" with a list of values "get", "set", "default" * when flag is set, a trace will be registered calling methods value=get obj variable value=set obj variable value value=default obj variable on the slot (actually the first two are identical with the methods used for slot-defined accessors) - updated regression test * new flag "-notrace" for "nsf::var::set" and "nsf::var::get"

- nx: added flag "-debug" and "-deprecated" to methods "method" "object method" "alias" "object alias" "forward" "object forward" such one can use e.g. /cls/ public alias -deprecated|-debug /method/ ... /cls/ public forward -deprecated|-debug /method/ ... /cls/ public method -deprecated|-debug /method/ ... /obj/ public object alias -deprecated|-debug /method/ ... /obj/ public object forward -deprecated|-debug /method/ ... /obj/ public object method -deprecated|-debug /method/ ...

- added new cmd:

nsf::method::property /obj/ ?-per-object? /method/ exists

to check, whether a method is defined for an object.

- output triggered via "-debug" is now generated via the

tcl functions "nsf::debug::call" and "nsf::debug::exit",

that can be redefined (similar to e.g. nsf::deprecated)

- cleanup of nsfProfile.c commands

- extended regression test

- Fixed a bug that disallowed the combination of valuecmd and valuechangedcmd for a single property (many thanks to Zoran for pointing this out)

Removed implicit substdefault for configure parameters in nx:

- The syntax of substdefault for method parameters and configure

parameters was different. For method parameters, it was necessary to

specify :substdefault per parameter to activate it, for configure

parameter is was based in the XOTcl tradition on the content of the

default (whether it contains [...]) One problem is, that there was

no easy way to turn this feature off. If one wants to provide a

script block as a default, it was necessary to escape all square

brackets.

- Now, in nx, one has to specify :substdefault for configure

parameter explicitly as well, syntax for configure and method

parameters is the same.

- XOTcl 2.0 keeps implicit substdefaults (backward compatible)

- fix bug: never try to substdefault, when there is no default given.

nx.tcl: pluralism reform part 3 - introduced simple plural form "mixins" and "filters" for introspection - moved differentiated interface into slot methods. the slot methods "get" stay symmetrically to "set", but additional methods "classes" or "methods" are used like "guard" to obtain partial results of the mixin and filter specs - changed info methods /cls/ info mixin classes -> /cls/ info mixins /cls/ info filter methods -> /cls/ info filters /obj/ info object mixin classes -> /obj/ info object mixins /obj/ info object filter methods -> /obj/ info object filters - dropped /cls/ info mixin guard /cls/ info filter guard /obj/ info object mixin guard /obj/ info object filter guard - added /cls/ mixin classes /cls/ filter methods /obj/ object filter methods /obj/ object mixin classes

nx.tcl: pluralism reform part 2 - changed methods /cls/ info subclass -> /cls/ info subclasses /cls/ info superclass -> /cls/ info superclasses /cls/ mixin ... -> /cls/ mixins /cls/ filter ... -> /cls/ filters /cls/ object mixin ... -> /cls/ object mixins /cls/ object filter ... -> /cls/ object filters - changed configure parameters /cls/ configure -mixin -> /cls/ configure -mixins /cls/ configure -filter -> /cls/ configure -filters /obj/ configure -object-mixin -> /obj/ configure -object-mixins /obj/ configure -object-filter -> /obj/ configure -object-filters - added handling for calling relationslot with unknown sub method

nsf.c: - allow abbreaviated nonpos args - change name of relationslot "superclass" to "superclasses". (part of a planned change to use plural for setvalued parameters, "info superclasses" and similar changes for mixins/filters will probably follow)

  1. … 7 more files in changeset.
nsf.c: - define means to protect "undefined" internally-directly called methods __alloc and __dealloc in nx. This is achieved mostly via a an additional value in a method declaration in ::nsf::objectsystem::create. Example: -class.dealloc {__dealloc ::nsf::methods::class::dealloc 1} - extend regression test

  1. … 9 more files in changeset.
nsf.c: - relax the meaning of noleadingdash to allow negative numbers - rename noleadingdash to e.g. nodashalnum

  1. … 11 more files in changeset.
nsf.c: parameter passing reform - don't pass full argument list for filteing methods calle further methods from C (such as new/create/... ) to allow processing of e.g. "--" in "new" to separate arguments to "new" cleanly from arguments passed to "create". Now we can use e.g. "C new -- -childof 123" in case class C has a property "childof". - extend c-generator to accept option "-objv0" to pass the original "objv[0]" to the called command. Since we had previously "allargs", we have to pass the objv[0] now differently - more thorough checking ISOBJ(someObj) macro for asserts (use "assert(ISOBJ(someObj))" instead of just "assert(someObj)") - extend regression test

  1. … 11 more files in changeset.
- fix a few more cases, where required accessor method "get" was missing

- rename nsf::parameter:invalidate::classcache -> nsf::parameter::cache::classinvalidate nsf::parameter:invalidate::objectcache -> nsf::parameter::cache::objectinvalidate reasons: (a) remove single colon inside the name, (b) put verb to the end

nsf.c: - added options to filter output from ::nsf::cmd::info parameter options (args, syntax, parameter) - deleted: - "/obj/ info lookup configure parameters ?pattern?" - "/obj/ info lookup configure syntax" - added: - "/obj/ info lookup parameters /methodName/ ?pattern?" - "/obj/ info lookup syntax /methodName/ ?pattern?" This covers as well - "/obj/ info lookup parameters configure|create|new|... ?pattern?" - extend regression test

  1. … 9 more files in changeset.
nsf.c, gentclAPI.tcl: - new argument types "virtualobjectargs" and "virtualclassargs" for context-specific argument resolutions: when a context object is provided, arguments of type "virtualobjectargs" are determined based on the slots applicable for the object (like "... lookup ..."), arguments of type "virtualclassargs" are resolved against a class. These types are used as follows: /obj/ configure /virtualobjectargs/ /cls/ create /name/ /virtualclassargs/ /cls/ recreate /name/ /virtualclassargs/ /cls/ new ?-childof /obj/? /virtualclassargs/ This new feature allows us to provide better error messages and to make much of the "... info ... configure parameter ..." infrastructure much less important. - For "virtualclassargs" we need the functionality to obtain from the C-Code based on a class the configure parameters applicable to objects of this class. - add argument "-context ..." to "cmd::info" to pass the context object (so far the only place where the context-object is used) - object system configuration parameters changes: new: -class.configureparameter new: -object.configureparameter removed: -class.objectparameter

nsf.c - renamed parameter::get -> parameter::info - renamed method::get -> cmd::info
