[Re-directing to laszlo-dev, as I think this should be of general
interest to the community.]
Probably I'm just not a very good documenter. The stuff I wrote
after E.g., was supposed to be an example.
Try typing: `Debug.warn('This is a hotlink: %w', {a: 1, b: 2})` into
the eval pane of the Debugger and I think it will be obvious?
There is stuff written up at:
http://www.laszlosystems.com/lps-3.2/docs/reference/debug.html
see Debug.format and Debug.formatToString. And Debug.
{debug,info,warn,error} all have the same capabilities.
Any Object that is displayed using %w (in legal's %s too), will
automatically be hot-linked. For backwards compatibility, if you
just give any of the Debug.format-like methods a bunch of arguments
instead of using the format string, it will behave like old
Debug.write and just output the arguments separated by spaces, but
again, any Objects will automatically be hot linked (hm, that might
be only in legal's too).
Here's an example from the LFC:
Debug.error("%w.makeChild(%w, %w) when %w.__LZdeleted", this, e,
async, p);
All the objects referred to with %w will be hot linked.
Maybe Mr. Sundman can offer some advice on how to make the
documentation more user friendly?
