From pc at p-cos.net Sun Sep 11 14:28:28 2005 From: pc at p-cos.net (Pascal Costanza) Date: Sun, 11 Sep 2005 16:28:28 +0200 Subject: [closer-announce] ContextL 0.1 released Message-ID: Hi everyone, I have just released ContextL 0.1 at http://common-lisp.net/project/ closer/contextl.html Major changes: - There were unnecesarry &allow-other-keys declarations in some places which didn't buy anything but removed some useful runtime checks. (In the ContextL presentation in Munich, I was able to say :layered-accessors instead of :layered-accessor, and this was indeed caused by unnecessary &allow-other-keys declarations.) - The naming convention for methods on layered functions has been removed. Instead, one can now say define-layered-method, which is in fact now the preferred way to define layered methods. (Thanks to Bjoern Lindberg and Thomas F. Burdick for insisting!) - It's now possible to say with-inactive-layers. This was one of the most requested features at this young age of ContextL. Thanks to Thomas F. Burdick, Peter Herth, Boern Lindberg and Jim Newton for helping me out with finding a good name for that construct. ;) Cheers, Pascal -- OOPSLA'05 tutorial on generic functions & the CLOS Metaobject Protocol ++++ see http://p-cos.net/oopsla05-tutorial.html for more details ++++ Pascal Costanza, mailto:pc at p-cos.net, http://p-cos.net Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Programming Technology Lab Pleinlaan 2, B-1050 Brussel, Belgium
