We posted a refresh of the x10doc on x10-lang.org a few minutes ago that (a) has more comments on a few more key classes in x10.lang (still lots to do unfortunately) and (b) only includes the public/protected methods (as is standard for javadoc in Java). The later should help make it easier to see at a glance what the intended public API of the various classes is. --dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ X10-users mailing list X10-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/x10-users
