Fellow xotclers,
i am glad to annouce the availablity of xotcl 1.4.0. The major changes against 1.3.9 are:
* Improved Functionality * new option: ::xotcl::configure softrecreate on|off if softrecreate is set, class relations (superclass, subclass, class, instances) are not affected by a recreate; this allows files with class definitions more easily to reload + easier syntax for providing commands for initializing default values + setting and querying options for ::xotcl::configure simiar to set
* Improved Code Quality: + fixed a bug in connection with nonpositional arguments and "args" + fixed a bug with adding on the fly transitive mixin classes + fixed a bug with filter states after next + fixed omitted error message after calling self with unknown subcommands + fixed a bug with variable traces on thread exit (triggered by volatile) + fixed incorrect rpm dependencies + cleaner compile for xotcl for gcc 4.* under linux + don't destroy namespace imported child objects + info children returns true children, not namespace imported objects/classes + unsetting the global variable "cmd" from predefined.xotcl + Upgraded TEA to 3.5 + more regression tests addeed
For more details about the changes, please consult the ChangeLog and documentation on www.xotcl.org.
The window binaries will follow soon.
all the best -gustaf neumann
