#1 rewrite script and rule communication
Hello,
I found out that with VisualWorks 7.1 it's possible to
build small rewrite scripts which could be sent by mail
(see attached code template, critics welcome :-).
Such scripts are quite useful. You can send them per
mail and apply the same refactorings in different project
environments by simply changing the list of bundles. Or
you could automate lint-checks in a similar way and add
them to the continous integration process like you'd do
it with regression tests.
One approach to make things a little bit more convenient
for team development would be to integrate save and
load buttons into the rewrite tool. E. g. I'd like to store
rules and/or a script based on the given rule and
environment right from the rewrite pane of VW's system
browser.
Cheers
Sascha
