serializer.tcl - added flag -objmap to Serialzer.deepSerialize to make serialzer usable for copying (-map is to coarse) - extended regression test

  1. … 2 more files in changeset.
nsf.c - removed obsolete function AssertionAppendPrePost() - removed obsolete function NsfNSCopyCmdsCmd() and ::nsf::nscopycmd (handled now more general on scripting level in the "copy" method)

nx.tcl:

- "copy" method: fixed copying of class-level per-object methods

- extended regression tests

nsf.c - fixed a bug in "info methods returns" in cases, where no returns info was available. - we can "/obj/ copy" now objects/classes containing * aliases * setter * ensemble methods * method protections Instead of handling cmd copying in NsfNSCopyCmdsCmd, it is replaced now by introspection. - extended regression test

- hopefully the last changes for ?object? method|variable|property: defined * "/obj/ delete object method" * "/obj/ delete object property" * "/obj/ delete object variable"

Method and configure parameter reform, Part 2: In order to streamline the interface further, we tried to follow the idea to use "... info /plural word/" to obtain a set of handles, and then a separate call to obtain the details. Therefore, we replaced

/cls/ info slot objects

/cls/ info slot definitions

/cls/ info slot names

/obj/ info object slot objects

/obj/ info object slot definitions

/obj/ info object slot names

/obj/ info lookup slots

by

/cls/ info slots ?-type /type/? ?-closure? ?-source all|application|baseclasses? ?/pattern/?

/obj/ info object slots ?-type /type/? ?/pattern/?

/obj/ info slot definition /obj/

/obj/ info lookup slots ?-type /type/? ?-source all|application|baseclasses? ?/pattern/?

  1. … 9 more files in changeset.
- added "/obj/ object variable" and "/obj/ object property"

Object-method Reform: - changed interface to object specific commands by requiring an ensemble named "object". The rational behind is essentially to use always the same info command to retrieve object specific methods, no matter whether these are defined on a plain object or an a class object (does not break the "contract" what e.g. "info method" returns).

Now we define methods via:

/cls/ method foo {args} {...body...}

/cls/ object method foo {args} {...body...}

/obj/ object method foo {args} {...body...}

Similarly, aliases, forwards and mixins are defined, e.g.

/cls/ mixin add ...

/cls/ object mixin add ...

/obj/ object mixin add ...

/obj/ require object method ...

The same change propagated as well to the "info" method.

Now we have:

/cls/ info methods ...

/cls/ info object methods ...

/obj/ info object methods ...

Similar, the object parametererization uses

/cls/ create obj -object-mixin M

/cls/ create obj -object-filter f

/metacls/ create cls -mixin M1 -object-mixin M2

/metacls/ create cls -filter f1 -object-filter f2

- as a consequence,

a) "/cls/ class method ...",

"/cls/ class alias ...",

"/cls/ class forward ...",

"/cls/ class filter ...",

"/cls/ class mixin ...",

"/cls/ class info ..."

"/obj/ class method require method ..."

"/obj/ class method require public method ..."

"/obj/ class method require protected method ..."

"/obj/ class method require private method ..."

were dropped

b) "/obj/ method ....",

"/obj/ alias ....",

"/obj/ forward ...."

"/obj/ filter ...."

"/obj/ mixin ...."

"/obj/ info method*"

"/cls/ create obj -mixin M"

"/cls/ create obj -filter f"

"/obj/ method require method ..."

"/obj/ method require public method ..."

"/obj/ method require protected method ..."

"/obj/ method require private method ..."

were dropped

- added package nx::class to allow optionally the "class" notation

"/cls/ class method ..." (and friends, see (a)), and

"/cls/ class info ...

- added package nx::plain-object-method to allow optionally plain method

b) "/obj/ method ...." (and friends, see (b))

- add support to slots to use ensemble methods as setters

Property reform part 1:

- disallow protection modifiers for "properties" and

add new flag "-accessor" to "property" and "variable"

This changes definitions like

Class create C {

:property {a a1}

:public property {b b1}

:protected property {c c1}

:private property {d d1}

}

to

Class create C {

:property {a a1}

:property -accessor public {b b1}

:property -accessor protected {c c1}

:property -accessor private {d d1}

}

since "properties" are always public accessible

over the "configure" and "cget" interface, but the

accessors methods might not be public. The value of

the accessor might be also "none" (specifying explicitely

that no accessor is wanted) or "", which means: use the default.

Same holds for "variable"

- disallow parameter option "incremental" and change it to a flag

of the property or variable. The motivation for this is due to

the fact, that "incremental" is a property of the accessor, and

not of the value.

old:

Class create C {

:property foo:int,incremental

:variable bar:int,incremental

}

new:

Class create C {

:property -incremental foo:int

:variable -incremental bar:int

}

- disallow "public class property" and friends since these are not needed

- removed parameter property "noaccessor"

- removed "nx::configure defaultPropertyCallProtection" and

method hook "__default_property_call_protection"

- introduced "nx::configure defaultAccessor" and

method hook "__default_accessor"

- for the time being, "defaultAccessor" is "public" for NX and XOTcl,

will be changed to "none" in NX

- extended regression test (new file properties.test)

- fixed regression test to run all test again correctly

nsf.c: - extended nsf::method::delete to handle ensemble names

nx.tcl:

- added tk/incr-tcl style cget methods on class/object levels.

- improve copy handling with other child-types of the slot container working

- make sure to ignore non-slot-type objects in slot introspection

- worked on regression test until "methods.test". others are missing,

but maybe reconsideration

  1. … 7 more files in changeset.
- generic/nsf.c, ObjectDispatch(): Re-arranged the handling of fully-qualified method dispatches with the selectors resolving to existing objects and, in particular, nested (namespace-qualified) objects. Prior to that, dispatches such as "::C ::parent::child" were not covered appropriately: ::parent was reported as valid regObj and so the dispatcher continued to dispatch to the cmd "::parent::child" in the self-context ::parent::child ... with unwanted side-effects (e.g., XOTcl's unknown handling was bypassed). - tests/methods.test: Added basic tests on the (current) handling for such ::* dispatches and a specific test set on the intended XOTcl behaviour.

- nsf.c: start all error messages with a lower case word for consistency and to follow closer to Tcl's conventions

- alias reform: instead of calling first an alias with a stack frame followed by the dispatched of the aliased cmd, resolve aliases internally in dispatch. This has the advantage that we do not have to ignore the "transparent" stack frame in some sitations, and we have much less problems with the names of the aliased cmds (e.g. objects) in the introspection methods. Additionally, several problem cases disappeared from the regression test cases. In addition, the new approach is faster. - eliminating obsolete flag NSF_CSC_CALL_IS_TRANSPARENT

  1. … 9 more files in changeset.
- Added exerpimental object property "allowmethoddispatch" for child-objects to be called from parent objects via method interface. Background: both, per-object methods and childobjects are implemented via cmds in the same tcl namespace. Without special care, both are callable via the standard dispatch. Apparently, this is not always wanted. - handled allowmethoddispatch and keepcallerself in copy/move - set allowmethoddispatch per-default in XOTcl - removed visablilty of objects with "allowmethoddispatch" false in "info methods" and "info search methods" - extended regression test

- nx.tcl: * made "/cls/ class ..." using ensemble methods and therefore extensible. * This introduces some definition order dependencies in nx.tcl and some redundancy ("class filter" and "class mixin"), but maybe this can be eliminated.
