ANN: Ctalk 0.0.55 2015-05-27 Released

Show all headers | View raw

Ctalk release 0.0.55 2015-05-26 adds overloaded math operators for
String, Collection, and Key objects, and members of their subclasses.
The overloaded operators provide a compact way to manage object
references.  Among other uses, the references can act as ad-hoc
iterators, as in programs like this one.

  List new aList;
  Key new aKey;

  aList push "item1";
  aList push "item2";
  aList push "item3";

  aKey = *aList;

  do {
    printf ("%s\n", *aKey);
  } while (++aKey);

Note that *aList refers to the first member of the list, which is a
collection key, while *aKey refers to the key's content, which is a
String object.  So an expression like **aList returns the first String
in aList.

The source code for this release is downloadable at:

Also new in this release are many methods, like String : chomp and
Object : isSubclassOf, as well as the methods that overload math
operators, including +, -, ++, --, +=, -=, !, and *.  Methods in the
Collection hierarchy are now more consistent, and a few duplicate
methods were removed.

There's also an upgraded version of the, "methods," utility, and the
chaser.c example program, which displays a side scrolling message in a
terminal window.
