Hi all
I want something similar in the spirit to PythonDocTest
https://docs.python.org/2/library/doctest.html
I'm talking about
basename
"Returns the base of the basename,
i.e.
/foo/gloops.taz basename is 'gloops.taz'
/ basename is '/'"
Pragmas do not work well i.e.,
basename
"Returns the base of the basename"
<expr: '''/foo/gloops.taz'' asFileReference basename' result:
'gloops.taz'>
We should invent a syntax to be put inside comments and that we can easily
parse because we need to improve
the use and discovery of the library.
I was thinking about
basename
"Returns the base of the basename"
"
'/foo/gloops.taz' asFileReference basename
>>> 'gloops.taz'
"
Do you have any idea?
basename
"Returns the base of the basename"
"""
'/foo/gloops.taz' asFileReference basename
==> 'gloops.taz'
"""
self size == 0
"the root node"
ifTrue: [ ^ '/'].
^ self at: self size
I like this idea. But a fine semantic....
We should think of these less as "tests"
and more as "howto" snippets that are tested for correctness.
They should show just the *simplest* was to get an object to which the
method can be sent.
Maybe they could be also displayed via the gtExample interface ??
May be. Right now I want to make sure that all the little examples that
are written for example
inside methods are correct.
