Documentation

[Omer Katz]

I don't understand half of the current API.
The reason is that I know every class that was presented by the book but afterwards there is no real detailed documentation.
For instance I'm looking on MultiMethods and I have no clue what Lhs and Rhs is.

Also why weren't we updated about the upcoming release.
I had a feature to include. The Decorator class that I wrote for Loki.

Hi Omer,

We need to update the documentation to reflect the changes and features in the new release.  You can find documentation for much of Loki here
http://loki-lib.sourceforge.net/
and here:
http://loki-lib.sourceforge.net/html/modules.html

The terms, lhs and rhs, are abbreviations for Left-Hand-Side and Right-Hand-Side.  They refer to the left and right operands in some functions.
For example:
string operator + ( const string & lhs, const string & rhs );
string b( "the left" );
string c( " is right" );
string a = b + c;  // a == "the left is right"

I wanted to get the release out soon for several reasons.  We overlooked letting other developers know.

Cheers,

Rich

Well basically I'm making a new namespace of design patterns for Loki.
It's a shame...  I could have submitted part of it.
Can I just update the svn from now on?

Hi Omer,

I'd like to hear your plans for adding other design patterns into Loki.  I tried to send you an email at brokenblade@users.sourceforge.net, but the email bounced.  Can you send me a private message via sourceforge so I know how to reach you through email?

Thanks!

Rich

Oh and about the docs... A simple explenation will be enough for me to help writing the docs :)
I'd like to really get into this :):)
