[gobo-eiffel-develop] GEC persistence closure & debugger

[Wolfgang J. <wj...@so...>]

Hello Eric and all GOBO/GEC developers,

some time ago i've announced development of persistence closure (i.e. 
class STORABLE)
and a debugger for the GEC. It took some time to get stable version
(in particular, treatment of agents was --and is-- rather terrible).

Now, I think, the stuff can be published: you will find it in 
git-repository
   http://www.cs.uni-potsdam.de/~wjansen/gobo-git
and there in branch "debugger" (the "master" branch is that from 
SourceForge).
Is this location accessible? Should I prepare the stuff a different way?

For those of you interested to know what has been done, most differences
to the "master" branch are contained and described in git-version
   9003cd425affac20f946d7803e2782dfd261fbe7 .
Later versions are merely fine tuning.

To use the new things you need to re-install the GEC.
Precisely, you must compile GEC twice: first using an existing compiler
and then using the just obtained, somewhat extended compiler.
Other tools don't need to be re-installed.
Forthcoming re-installations will need only one compilation
if the extended compiler can be used.

User manuals are in directories
   doc/persistence/persist.pdf
   doc/debugger/debug.pdf
of the repository.

Enjoy GEC-debugging!
WJ
