Announcing XOTcl 1.6.2 *************************
We are pleased to announce the availability of XOTcl 1.6.2
Major changes relative to 1.6.1 are:
* Functional extensions: - handle nonposargs in method "copy" properly
- new command ::xotcl::finalize (for forcing cleanup and destuctor execution at a time in a multi-threaded environment, where it is still safe to execute all tcl commands)
* Extended and generalized "info" method
- Added "<class> mixinof -closure ?pattern?" Query the objects for which <class> is used as a per-object-mixin (directly or indirectly)
* Fixes for potential crashes
- Implemented proper downgrading of Classes to Objects (handle cases, where something was created first as an object and is reclassed/recreated later as a class) and vice versa
- Reset mixin order for per-object mixins, when the superclass of a class is deleted, which is used as per-object mixin
* Improved documentation
* Extended regression tests
* Some code cleanup
For more details about the changes, please consult the ChangeLog and documentation.
