[REBOL] How do I dynamically extend an object! instance

I have an existing dataase of saved objects which I wish to add fields to (IE add words:). I probably only want to add the words if I absolutely must in order to keep size down. I also may already have added a particular word to an object instance and dont wish to overwrite the value already assoc

[REBOL] rebol weak points (i think) Re:(3)

Rebol Modules have been discussed by Carl Sassenrath. They should cover what you require, if an 'object! doesn't quite fit what you want. I'm getting a friend who has got a bigger collection of emails to post it to the list again or to find which message it was. Andrew Martin ICQ: 26227169 http:/

[REBOL] rebol weak points (i think) Re:(2)

no. The Math/Pie you have created is an instance variable not a static variable. It is associated with an instance of the class, not the class itself. A static variable means that there is a single copy of this variable associated with class itself. You do not need to instantiate a class to use st

Hi all, thanks for your answers! I think for the time being everything is okay with Rebol, especially when it comes to learning Rebol it's good to have it handy on all kinds of Intel machines in order to establish a large developer community. However, I try to find out where the IT market might a

I've just started to play around with rebol. It definately has it's =advantages for the beginner progammer but it seems shows some weakness =for advanced, modular based programming. For example, all user/system =defined variables are either global (or local to a function). Since all =variabl

Hi all, I am amazed by REBOL as a language environmment - it's like a dream has become true. However, I am worried about the fact that there are no ports to PDAs available yet, not even to the most popular platforms, e.g., Palm and Psion. I would like to carry REBOL around with me on a small poc

Yes... "closing a port" == "killing a connection". That's why you want to leave it open until you're done with your IRC session. R. At 10:18 AM 9/9/2000 -0500, you wrote: > > If I open a port to an IRC server doesnt closing the port each time I want >to send data effectively kill the conn

Paul, "b" is just what comes in from the port. As you can see by the second line of code, 'b is simply a string. You see it's contents when this program runs, as all this does is print 'b over and over as the data arrives. Check out the docs/examples on 'parse... it's very powerful and exactly
