The latest spec (0.098) is now live on the site. A new boot image is available as well. The revised spec removes support for the method category string from the grammar,
describes a new experimental feature, transient slots, designed to help support orthogonal synchronization,
and has other minor corrections.
Hi Gilad:
Any specific reason for the removal?I didn't find them particularly useful in text files, so, I won't really miss them if I remove them from SOMns as well. Am just curious.
describes a new experimental feature, transient slots, designed to help support orthogonal synchronization,Hm, reading the spec, to me it sounds as if transient slots work very much like inner classes.For a moment, I was wondering whether inner classes could be seen as syntactic sugar over transient slots but that wouldn't be correct, because we don't have class literals, only object literals.Do I understand that correctly?
and has other minor corrections.Is the spec a Latex document?Since I am always curious what you change, perhaps it would be possible to get a diff, or a latexdiff (https://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/latexdiff?lang=en)?
