[Oorexx-devel] Editing the Wiki

2011-12-20 Thread Sahananda (Jon) Wolfers
All,

I just added a couple of pages to the Wiki.
It was suggested that I pass on any wiki editing experience I garnered, so:

1) sign on to sourceforge
2) Find the Wiki
3) Press the edit tab

to create a new section surround it by ==  ==
==New Section==

to link to a page
[[Page Name]]

to create a new page, create a link to it, preview your link and click on
it.

To get code to appear together in a box, prepend each and every line with
two spaces.

I couldn't see a way to change fonts etc., but maybe next time.

Jon

[Oorexx-devel] Question ad rev. 7391 (sandbox/jlf)

2011-12-20 Thread Rony G. Flatscher
Bonsoir Jean-Louis,

looking through the commits I stumbled over your commit to rev. 7391 applied to 
your sandbox version
of ooRexx, giving the comment:

Revision: 7391
  http://oorexx.svn.sourceforge.net/oorexx/?rev=7391view=rev
Author:   jfaucher
Date: 2011-12-19 21:31:09 + (Mon, 19 Dec 2011)
Log Message:

Moved wide-char oodialog (now outdated) to oodialog.wchar

and then reading sandbox/jlf/_diary:

 
===
+2011 dec 19
+
+Moved wide-char oodialog (now outdated) to oodialog.wchar and adapted the 
makefiles
+to build both standard oodialog and oodialog.wchar. The wide-char version 
can be
+still useful to test unicode support by the interpreter.
+
+Next step : merge from trunk.
+
+

+===

Does this comment mean that your sandbox version of ooRexx is fully 
Unicode-enabled already?

If so, how would you describe its stability? In any case: would it be possible 
to get at a binary
version of it (Windows, Linux or Mac, any bitness) to be able to test it over 
Christmas?

---

Also another question in this context: what about oodialog.wchar that you state 
to be outdated,
was it fully Unicode-enabled (as wchar and your respective documentation in the 
sandbox indicate)?
What about the newest version of oodialog then?

TIA,

---rony

 Unicode-enabled already?


no...I did not work on Unicode since several months. But since uft-8 is
compatible with ascii, it's possible to process utf-8 strings and pass them
to (or receive them from) oodialog. That's why I say I can use
oodialog.wchar to test unicode, assuming I restart to work on Unicode.


 If so, how would you describe its stability? In any case: would it be
 possible to get at a binary version of it (Windows, Linux or Mac, any
 bitness) to be able to test it over Christmas?

 The sandbox version is very stable. I run ooRexxShell daily, which loads
*all* the packages/libraries, including bsf4oorexx. After modifying one of
the packages, I enter the 'reload' command which reloads everything in a
few seconds, and I test.
I can deliver a binary version for Windows (32 bits)  and Mac (64 bits)
through dropbox. The main thing to test is the RexxContextualSource (that I
will probably rename RexxBlock) and all its derivatives.

 respective documentation in the sandbox indicate)? What about the newest
 version of oodialog then?


yes, oodialog.wchar is fully Unicode. Internally, all the strings are
utf-16 strings. At the boundaries, the multi-bytes strings (which covers
ascii, utf-8 strings) are converted to/from UTF-16. You have just to
specify the code page of the multi-bytes strings.
I don't plan to redo this work for the new oodialog, But the work is not
lost...

Hi Rony,

To clarify this a little regarding ooDialog, there have been huge changes
to the ooDialog code base since Jean-Louis branched it off to his sand
box.  And, since I'm not done making changes / refactoring code, it would
be a very large job for him to bring it up to date.
