Subject: name() method
Print | Individual message | Show original | Report this message | Find messages by this author
I was scanning the todo.txt document, looking for issues that I could
pursue in an attempt to learn more about Zimbu. I picked this bug just
for grins:

- Bug: cannot use Conversion.int2string.name()

but I ended up with very confused regarding the name() method.

Is name() intended to (eventually) be a universal method for all Zimbu
objects and types? I have only seen it used with ENUM so far. Can you
point me to a design discussion on this function?

Thanks,
Dave

name() currently works for an enum value. It should return the name of
the value,
in this case "int2string".

It's not very important, I haven't sorted bugs by proirity yet.
