Re: [Magritte] Pragmas

The details have to be determined yet, it mainly helps to ensure extensibility and avoids to have naming conventions; probably there are other possibilites: * Magritte-Descriptions - Now: There is a naming convention that all descriptions have to be put on the class-side of the model and that their selectors should look like #description[A-Z][A-Za-z0-9]+. Not only this is extremely ugly but also forces other packages to override, if they want to extend another package. - Pragmas: It should be possible to define descriptions within different methods, so that different packages are able to customize the same description. Probably there are This could look like: EditPage class>>contentsDescription (core package) <description> ^ MAMemoDescription selector: #contents EditPage class>>contentsDescriptionComponent: aDescription (seaside view) <description: #contentsDescription> ^ aDescription componentClass: PRContentsEditor EditPage class>>contentsDescriptionPersistency: aDescription (persistency paackge) <description: #contentsDescription> ^ aDescription persistencyStrategy: PROmniPersistent new * Pier-Parser - Now: The Pier-Wiki parser right now is quite limited, because extensions cannot modify or extend its behaviour without duplicating everything. - Pragmas: I would like so simplify it so that it triggers sub- parsers from line prefixes. These prefixes are defined as method- pragmas so that other packages are able to add their own extensions. Any other ideas? Lukas -- Lukas Renggli http://www.lukas-renggli.ch
