As I could run the full test suite on Windows successfully, I will commit the code and related
unit tests in a short while.
Here a synopsis:
The .Package class gets two new protected methods:
* the protected class method "globalOptions" which allows to query and
set override package
options and an override count which controls whether the override
package options get
applied whenever a program/package gets newly called or required:
globalOptions(option[,newValue])
o option "OverridePackageOptions" (only first capital letter needed):
returns a string
formatted as an "::OPTIONS" directive showing all options and their
values; if one
supplies "newValue" it needs to be a string formatted as an
"::OPTIONS" directive,
which will be used from then on to override the internal package
options on newly
called or required programs.
o option "CountOverride" (only first capital letter needed): returns
the current
countOverride value; if one supplies "newValue" it needs to be a
whole number. If
countOverride is 0, then no overrides take place. If count Override
is a positive
number n, the overrides take place n times. If count is a negative
number like -1,
then the overrides take place forever ("globally").
* the protected instance method "options" which allows to query and set
(individual) package
options for the package: options ([option[,newValue]])
o (no arguments): returns a string formatted as an "::OPTIONS"
directive showing all
options and their values
o "All" (only first capital letter needed): this option mandates
"newValue" which can be
one of "Condition" or "Syntax"; it sets all conditions (Error,
FAilure, Lostdigits,
NOString, NOTready, NOValue) to "newValue"; it is an error to omit
"newValue"
o "Digits" (only first capital letter needed): returns the current
digits() setting; if
"newValue" is given it must be a positive whole number that is
larger than fuzz()
o "Error" (only first capital letter needed): returns current
condition's setting
("CONDITION"=default, "SYNTAX"); if "newValue" is given it must be either
"Condition"
or "Syntax"
o "FAilure" (only first two capital letters needed): returns current
condition's setting
("CONDITION"=default, "SYNTAX"); if "newValue" is given it must be either
"Condition"
or "Syntax"
o "FOrm" (only first two capital letters needed): returns the current
form() setting
(either "SCIENTIFIC" or "ENGINEERING"); if "newValue" is given it
must be either
"Scientific" or "Engineering"
o "FUzz" (only first two capital letters needed): returns the current
fuzz() setting;
if "newValue" is given it must be a zero or a positive whole number
that is smaller
than digits()
o "InitialPackageSettings" (only first capital letter needed):
returns a string
formatted as an "::OPTIONS" directive showing all options and their
values; one must
not supply a "newValue" which would be regarded as an error
o "Lostdigits" (only first capital letter needed): returns current
condition's setting
("CONDITION"=default, "SYNTAX"); if "newValue" is given it must be either
"Condition"
or "Syntax"
o "NOString" (only first three capital letters needed): returns
current condition's
setting ("CONDITION"=default, "SYNTAX"); if "newValue" is given it
must be either
"Condition" or "Syntax"
o "NOTready" (only first three capital letters needed): returns
current condition's
setting ("CONDITION"=default, "SYNTAX"); if "newValue" is given it
must be either
"Condition" or "Syntax"
o "NOValue" (only first three capital letters needed): returns
current condition's
setting ("CONDITION"=default, "SYNTAX"); if "newValue" is given it
must be either
"Condition" or "Syntax"
o "Prolog" (only first capital letter needed): returns current
prolog s setting
("PROLOG"=default, "NOPROLOG"); if "newValue" is given it must be either
"Prolog" or
"Noprolog"
o "Reset" (only first capital letter needed): returns a string
formatted as an
"::OPTIONS" directive showing all options and their values; one
must not supply a
"newValue" which would be regarded as an error
o "SetPackageOptions" (only first capital letter needed): returns a
string formatted as
an "::OPTIONS" directive showing all options and their values and
sets the package
options to "InitialPackageSettings"; one must not supply a
"newValue" which would be
regarded as an error
Sorry, "SetPackageOptions" must have a "newValue" string argument formatted as an "::OPTIONS"
directive. Also fixed the code to check for this, which will get committed the moment SourceForge is
available again for commits.
o
o "Trace" (only first capital letter needed): returns a single
letter indicating the
trace option in effect ("A", "C", "E", "F", "I", "L", "N", "O", "R"); if
"newValue"
is given it needs to be one of "All", "Commands", "Error", "Failure",
"Intermediates",
"Labels", "Normal", or "Off"
To get at this version, check back with
<https://sourceforge.net/projects/oorexx/files/oorexx/5.2.0beta/> in a little while, as Jenkins
will create and test ooRexx on many operating systems each time commits occur to ooRexx' trunk.
