Completely removed the nested hierarchy, where
the top-level implementation forwarded to yet another
sub-implementation of the same interface. Rather, this
sub-implementation (OpClosure) is now a mere implementation
detail class without VTable, and without half-baked
re-implementation of the CmdClosure interface. And the
state-switch from unbound to bound arguments is now
implemented as a plain-flat boolean flag, instead of
hiding it in the VTable.
To make this possible, without having to rewrite lots of
tests, I've created a clone of StorageHolder as a
"proof-of-concept" dummy implementation, for the sole
purpose of writing test fixtures. This one behaves
similar to the real-world thing, but cares only
for closing the command operation and omits all
the gory details of memento capturing and undo.
Seems this was part of the confusion when looking at
the inheritance graph: Names where almost reversed
to the meaning. the ArgumentHolder was *not* the
argument holder, but the top level closure. And
the class "Closure" was not "the" Closure, but
just the argument holder. ;-)
based on the new generic tuple builder, we're now able to
add a new binding function into the command implementation
machinery, alongside the existing one. As it stands, the
latter will be used rather by unit tests, while the new
access path is what will be actually taken within
the application, when receiving argument binding
messages dispatched via the UI-Bus.
this was a classical example of a muddled and messed-up design,
driven just by the fact that I wanted to "spare" some functions,
with the net effect of writing more functions, plus a proxy class
plus create a lot of confusion for the reader.
This was easy to resolve though, once I resorted to the
general adivice to make public interface methods final,
make the extension ponts protected and never
to chain two extension points
- 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
this was introduced into namespace mobject and spread from there.
Since the habit is to use more specific typedefs like PClip,
it is preferrable to spell out the full namespace
Ouch!
Why does C++ lack the most basic everyday stuff?
It needn't be performant. It needn't support some fancy
higher order container. Just join the f***ing strings.
use Bosst?? -- OMG!! pulls in half the metra programming library
and tries to work on any concievable range like object. Just
somehow our Lumiera Forward Iterators aren't "range-like" enough
for boost's taste.
Thus let's code up that fucking for-loop ourselves, once and forever.
Clang doesn't allow to declare a private nested class as friend.
This is unfortunate, but likely correct to the letter of the standard.
As a workaround, now we're creating the instances within a static
function of DependencyFactory -- in the end this improves readability
A second issue fixed with this changeset is the scope of the
marker function. Clang is right, this isn't ADL, thus an inline
friend definition is simply not visible outside the class.
lib::Depend<TY> works as drop-in replacement for lib::Singleton<TY>
This changeset removes the convoluted special cases like
SingletonSub and MockInjector.
these simple utils (length of typelist, maximum size
containment test) are mostly not used in conjunction
with the more elaborate typelist manipulatino utils.
Moreover, we lacked a dedicated unit test
As we're using now a command frontend interface and
and CommandImpl frame in the Registry, most of the
functionaliry on Mutation's interface is superfluous.
Additionally, this separates Mutation and Closure.
