[F-Script-talk] incomplete FSClass instance implementation

[Kimon T. <ki...@ma...>]

Hi,

I seem to be having some issues using FScript & FSClass. I'm currently  
at version 1.3.5 & 2.1 respectively running under 10.5.1. When I  
executed the following example code:

 > Circle := FSClass newClass:'Circle'.
 > Circle addProperty:'radius'.

I receive:

error: an instance of Circle does not respond to "addProperty:"

Indeed when browsing my Circle FSClass under the object browser, the  
FSClass instance selectors do not appear to be present. Does FSClass  
require FScript 2.0 or is there something else I might be missing?

Thanks,
Kimon

Hey Kimon,

Looking at the FSClass source, it might be a problem running on Leopard.

The +[FSClass newClass:] method returns a proxy object that can handle
an addProperty: message.  The -class method on that proxy is
implemented to return the un-proxied class.

Something about Leopard may be causing that -class method to be
invoked where it wasn't before, because I can make things work a bit
better by removing the implementation of -class on FSClass.

This works with the class method removed:

> Circ := FSClass newClass:'Circle'

> Circ addProperty:'radius'

> c := Circ alloc init

> c setRadius:5
nil

> c radius
5

Dealing directly with the [Circle class] object still doesn't work for
me.  From the source, I'm not sure it's expected to..

FSClass definitely does not work properly on Leopard. I haven't had a chance to investigate it in detail, but I hope to have a Leopard-compatible, 64-bit version released by the end of January.
