[REBOL] Re: local vars in functions

Hi, because my example in the first message used the first "strange-buggy" word of context, it was wrong, a correct version could be: a: b: 1 make object! [print value? 'b a: "" b: ""] false which confirms that 'b is local and unset. --- Ciao Romano -- To unsubscribe from this list, plea

1. You can start processes via command line in paid versions of rebol. The master could then start as many slaves as it needs. No forking in native rebol. Here is a simple 2 line a piece master and slave demo, made in about two minutes. This is one way to communicate between processes. ---

I wrote an article a couple of months ago for daemonnews.org about Jakarta-Tomcat and how to run it on FreeBSD. I have received such wonderful help from Rebol the company, ( including an evaluation build of Link for FreeBSD less than 24 hours after asking for it ! ), as well as from th

[REBOL] Re: local vars in functions

Hi, Rethinking at my previous message, i must change one thing. At the start of the block context, the first (set)word is a strange word which i don't understand well. Could it be a bug? This is OK: foo: 0 foo2: 1 >> make object! [get 'foo2 foo: 2 foo2: 3] ** Script Error: foo2 has no value **

Hi, Anton, I agree with Ladislav (BTW he created, i think, a "perfect" simulation of make object! in one of his articles). As you can see here: >> a: 1 == 1 >> context [ print unset? a ;(1) a: "b" ;(2) ] true the word 'a in the print statement in the block context (1) is uns

Hi Anton, a little discussion may be useful sometimes: Ladislav, I disagree. I don't think this is an adequate proof. (You didn't observe the scan happening, so it's a theory, not an observation.) You are right. It is a theory supported by observation. In http://www.rebolforces.com/~ladislav

Thanks, Ammon. I am trying to summarize it. I can develop my mail.r using view.exe and distribute these files paying perfectly nothing to Rebol. But as I need more features, the price may become considerably. Also, I may never need IOS. Is that for client or server use? Of course my mail clients w

Ladislav, I disagree. I don't think this is an adequate proof. (You didn't observe the scan happening, so it's a theory, not an observation.) In my understanding, context evaluates its blk argument, and as it moves along from item to item, finds set-words and their values and adds them to the ne
