First part is to define the steps (the protocol) at the
model element level, which gets a command prepared and invoked.
Test fails still, because there is no actual argument binding
invoked in the TestNexus
- remove unnecessary includes
- expunge all remaining usages of boost::format
- able to leave out the expliti string(elm) in output
- drop various operator<<, since we're now picking up
custom string conversions automatically
- delete diagnostics headers, which are now largely superfluous
- use newer helper functions occasionally
I didn't blindly change any usage of <iostream> though;
sometimes, just using the output streams right away
seems adequate.
...and learned a lot about the new type_traits on the way.
As it seems, it is not possible to get a clean error message
when passing an "object" with no custom string conversion;
instead, some overload for an rvalue-ostream kicks in.
probably I'll go for shoing a type string in these cases
now we use boost::format through our own front-end util::_Fmt
solely, which both helps to reduce compilation time and code size,
and gives us a direct string conversion, which automatically
uses any custom operator string() available on arguments.
While desirable as such, I did this conversion now, since
it allows us to get rid of boost::str, which in turn helps
to drill down any remaning uses of our own util::str
to make them stand out more prominently, some entity comments
where started with a line of starts. Unfortunately, doxygen
(and javadoc) only recogise comments which are started exactly
with /**
This caused quite some comments to be ignored by doxygen.
Credits to Hendrik Boom for spotting this problem!
A workaround is to end the line of stars with *//**
using our util::_Fmt front-end helps to reduce the code size,
since all usages rely on a single inclusion of boost::format
including boost::format via header can cause quite some code bloat
NOTE: partial solution, still some further includes to reorganise
the buildsystem will now pick up and link
all test cases according to the layer, e.g.
backend tests will automatically be linked
against the backend + library solely.
