I was writing Magritte descriptions for a JenkinsServer object and wanted to semi-automate the creation of buttons to start and stop the UI. Something like MAContainerMorph>>#addButtons, but sending messages to the model object. As a start, I made a new annotation to tag unary methods that are part of the public API, so you can write e.g.: stop <magritteAction> ZnEasy get: 'http://localhost:', self port asString, '/exit'. [ self isRunning ] whileTrue: [ self wait ]. process close; closePipes. Then I patched MAContainerMorph [1] to add the buttons for all such actions. The result is a toolbar added to Magritte views, like: <http://forum.world.st/file/n4693208/Screen_Shot_2013-06-13_at_1.13.19_PM.png> What do you guys think? [1] I'd like to generalize it to the description level so that it's available in Seaside, etc ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Model-actions-tp4693208.html Sent from the Magritte, Pier and Related Tools mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Magritte, Pier and Related Tools ... https://www.iam.unibe.ch/mailman/listinfo/smallwiki
