Hello all,

I downloaded XOTcl 1.6.0 today, and I immediately ran into an issue in some of my existing code. The following example works in XOTcl 1.5.6, but is different in XOTcl 1.6.0 -- as I understand the documentation on the website, there should be no difference between versions.


package require XOTcl
namespace import ::xotcl::*
Class Foo
set f [Foo new]
$f info Class ;# returns "::Foo", which seems correct
$f info Class "Foo" ;# in 1.5.6, returns 1; in 1.6.0, returns an empty string


To repeat, the issue is that "Object info class <classname>" returns a boolean value in XOTcl 1.5.6, but returns an empty string in 1.6.0 -- the current documentation on the website suggests that the 1.5.6 behavior is correct.

Am I missing something? Should the documentation be changed, or is the behavior in 1.6.0 incorrect? I downloaded the package via ActiveState's teacup service; I'm working on Mac OS X 10.4 Intel.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Cheers,
Edmond
