So there has been a revived discussion of adding "tooltip" support to
inlets/outlets, based on Günter's old patch. I think we should open up
the discussion again to see if we can come up with a solution that
Miller would accept. I believe his original objection was based on the
fact that the patch added a record to the t_class struct. So I was
thinking that instead of storing the tooltip data in t_class, it could
be stored using a custom struct like t_inletdescription that was then
added to object's class.
so the new objection will be based on the fact that the patch added a
record to the t_class struct?... i mean, this struct doesn't make any
difference with the original objection.
I guess the advantage of putting it into t_class is that there would only be
one copy of it.
Indeed.
That makes sense since every instance should need the same data.
Why does this make sense? I mean, how can you actually tell that every
instance should need the same data?
