Hi, I just want to present some small extensions for packages:
1. Add extra meta information ====================== A short description of the package, url of the project, and an icon these points would be useful for an ui in VisualGST. I would like to make the difference between prereq packages and sub packages for instance Iliad would have iliad-more-.... has a subpackage and swazoo has prereq. 2. Virtual packages =============== A virtual package would only contains prereq packages and sub packages. for instance It will be usefull for ui if you search iliad it will display iliad with priority and the other sub packages after. 3. add a reload message ;-) ================== 4. Load order ========== Something that's annoying with big packages is that we should put the files ordered with the inheritance order. A solution is too to a pass on the package and generate the right file loading order. But things remain complicated when you inherit from external packages and the other. All the suggestions/ideas are welcome ;) 5. Atomic loading ??? ============== Cheers, Gwen _______________________________________________ help-smalltalk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-smalltalk
