what's wrong ?? is there any sample code ?

To follow up on this - the demo/ and examples/ subdirs in the MK source distribution have some sample code, for C++, Python, and Tcl.


For C++, there are 140+ little self-contained tests in the tests/ regression test suite. They may not be perfect examples, but they are very small and self-contained, and definitely a good spot to look for uses of all of the different view operators.

I don't want to discourage people. On the contrary. But I'm juggling time between a number of activities. I've been working on some Really Exciting Technology To Take Metakit Way Further (TM) for some time now. So my efforts to help and support and improve docs are going to be limited, while maintaining my long-term commitment to help resolve and fix bugs.

As you may have seen, the www.equi4.com website has recently gotten an overhaul, in an attempt to make things easier to find. I've started writing up some more pages in response to questions on this list. And I've just finished a basic utility to display low-level stats and verify free-space integrity of MK datafiles, see http://www.equi4.com/mkstats.html

A number of people have sent a donation lately (thank you!), and Apple Computer has recently rewarded the fact that MK is doing well for them in every release of MacOSX all the way to Panther by donating a 17" Powerbook (whee!), so I can't even start to tell you how motivated I am to take the revolution of Metakit further. I'm saying this to let you know that although a mailing list like this is usually about Q's and problems, there really are many things going pretty well these days. The one constraint seems to be my time (and a more fanatic focus).

If you want to help, consider writing a small piece about some aspect of Metakit - as a good deed on some rainy day, perhaps. You can either do it all yourself, put it on your website and announce it so I can point to it, or enter it as a page in the MK wiki at http://www.equi4.com/metakit/wiki.cgi - or you can email me and I'll go out of my way to set up a new page and integrate it with what's on the website already (with full credits and acknowledgement).

The other way to help, and it's really encouraging to see it happen more and more, is to participate and help out with questions on this mailing list.

Happy coding, may Metakit serve everyone really well :)
