nsf.c: - change name of enumeratorConverterEntry to Nsf_EnumeratorConverterEntry, move it with NSF_ARG_* flags to tcl.h to make it available in derived modules using the converter - Added editor hints for a more uniform appearance

- use tcl8.5 commands instead of 8.4 idioms

nx::test: - change test cases to newer interface - don't use "namespace import nx::*" in test cases when not required

- Method and configure parameter reform

/cls/ info configure parameters ?pattern? -> list of params

/cls/ info configure syntax -> syntax output

/obj/ info method parameters /methodName/ ?/pattern/? -> list of params

/obj/ info method syntax -> syntax output

/obj/ info lookup configure parameter ?/pattern/? -> list of params

/obj/ info lookup configure syntax -> syntax output

/cls/ info parameter list|name|syntax /param/ -> value

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

- test.tcl: * don't export Test per-default * define Test as nx::Test * make Test parameter count 1 the default, change to higher numbers where needed

* Hopefully the last big naming change: Instead of writing "C class-object method foo {} {...}" one can write now "C class method foo {} {...}" to define a class method named "foo" for class "C". This naming change became possible by defining XOTcl's "class" (and "superclass") as object parameter only. To change a class of an object o, one has to use "o configure -class NEWCLASS". The term "object-class" looks alien to language beginners, the term "class" is much more straightforward. Changing classes or superclasses is seldomly used by typicall application programs.

For already existing nx scripts, changing "object-class" into

class should be straightforward.

* various documentation updates (migration guide, nx tutorial)

  1. … 22 more files in changeset.
- changed named of method handling commands in nsf: ::nsf::methodproperty => ::nsf::method::property ::nsf::method => ::nsf::method::create ::nsf::methoddelete => ::nsf::method::delete ::nsf::alias => ::nsf::method::alias ::nsf::forward => ::nsf::method::forward ::nsf::setter => ::nsf::method::setter (updated regression test, docs, ...)

  1. … 24 more files in changeset.
- made error messages more consistent - improved error messages for "returns" and "nsf::is" (omit parameter name)

  1. … 11 more files in changeset.
- added returns handling for nx in serializer - extended regression test

  1. … 2 more files in changeset.
- extended 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

  1. … 11 more files in changeset.
- nsf.c: aquire parameter structure for returns more lazyly (otherwise, a serializer handling returns would aquire the structure for every argument) - extend regression test

  1. … 1 more file in changeset.
- Fixed an issue when accessing partly initialised NsfParamDefs (created e.g. by [::nsf::methodproperty ... returns]) from [info method] subcommands, previously leading to invalid memory accesses. Added a test to tests/returns.test. - Minor correction: xotcl2's method_handle_to_xotcl was not aware of the change to "class-object" as scope modifier.

  1. … 2 more files in changeset.
- added regression test for forwarder and returns

  1. … 1 more file in changeset.
- changed returns syntax from '->' to '-returns'

  1. … 4 more files in changeset.
- nx.tcl: removed debugging output - nx.tcl: added syntactic sugar to "method" and "alias" for return value checking. One can write now: Class create C { :public method foo {a:int b:int} -> int { return [expr {$a + $b}] } } - extended regression test
