Audrey Tang 提到: However, in S02 you removed the Code class and replaced it with Routine, but that does not really work; for example, a bare block is a Code, but it cannot be a Routine since it can't be wrapped in place, and caller() would bypass it when considering caller frames. I should've been more explicit. While I don't really have a problem with replacing Code with Callable (except the latter is more wordy, so why not replace Callable with Code...), the issue is that your S02.pod edits indicates that a variable foo must always be bound to a Routine object. However, variable with the sigil can be bound to a Block as well, so replacing Code with Routine at line 1487 and 1512 doesn't quite work. :-) Cheers, Audrey

John M. Dlugosz 提到: I've edited several of the S??.pod files,but I have not heard back from the owner ($Larry, whose name is on the top of the file) about accepting merging or rejecting my changes. I've posted the files to http://www.dlugosz.com/Perl6/offerings/ so they don't get lost, until someone with authority wants to diff them. I'm diffing them (slowly), and have committed your stylistic edits to S02.pod. Thanks!

I should've been more explicit. While I don't really have a problem with replacing Code with Callable (except the latter is more wordy, so why not replace Callable with Code...), 1) nobody cared enough to discuss it for a couple weeks, and I decided that's one reason why this is moving so slowly...better to =do= already. See earlier post on Callable/Code. 2) Callable is mentioned in S02 as the role that goes with variables, and that is latest most official statement from Larry. Uses of Code for that role (eqv to variable) is relic from before roles. Why not use Code instead of Callable? I think Larry wanted those key sigil roles to have names that are adjectives. In any case, they form a nice matched set. the issue is that your S02.pod edits indicates that a variable foo must always be bound to a Routine object. However, variable with the sigil can be bound to a Block as well, so replacing Code with Routine at line 1487 and 1512 doesn't quite work. :-) I must have made a mistake; that should have been Callable. Callable is synonomous with the sigil. Cheers, Audrey
