Hi,
I am happy to announce a new feature in Glamour in the form of the
Accumulator browser. This browser is an implicit one that just takes
the input entity and creates a new pane for it. It is called an
Accumulator, because it accumulates panes as you provide a new input.
These panes are then displayed as tabs.
A complementary feature is in a new way bundle transmissions are
passed around. You can pass it like before with andShow:, or you can
do it with andShowWithoutOverride:. It's not a very nice name, but the
idea is that it only transmits the presentation if the same
presentations were not already found in the target pane.
Using Accumulator you can now emulate browsers that behave like the
Eclipse central pane. An example can be found here:
GLMBasicExamples new accumulator openOn: 42.
This feature is now also used in the MooseFinder and MoosePanel. If
you open the Panel and select a model, you open it in a new tab. From
the Finder, if you double click on an item in a list you get it in a
new tab.
I hope you like it.
Cheers,
Doru
