general TODO

syntax: phase <nr> [<who>] <deadline>

phase 0 (everyone!) saturday, may 6

  • specify ADT
  • generate and discuss a complete ADT of the EV_FOLDING_WIDGET here, if it's complete & correct, we can copy it over to the main page.

phase 1 (stefan, oliver, thomas, Grippus, sanakan) saturday, may 13

  • implement first rough draft of the EV_FOLDING_WIDGET based on the ADT from above (see also hint below).

phase 2 (lukas, Bru, Lord Bubu, sanakan) ...

  • write interface EV_FOLDING_CONTROLLER for users to use our folding widget by supplying an AST.

phase 3 (Grippus, Ledergec, salmanasar, ) ...

  • extensive testing (all members)
  • documentation

phase 4 (to be assigned) ...

  • integration with EiffelStudio (aka. wunschtraum...)

hint

Bayt

The folding support should be included the: EDITABLE_TEXT_PANEL

So far I agree with Exception, will read the paper mentioned below voer the weekend (have to go to a buck's night, so it may not be too productive, though ;)

i think we need another data type / class that specifies where folding is possible and wheter it's folded or nod. i propose the name EV_FOLDING_AREA.

it should have the following functions:
create: -> EV_FOLDING_AREA
the area goes from this character on.
from: EV_FOLDING_AREA -> INTEGER
the area goes from this character on.
to: EV_FOLDING_AREA -> INTEGER
the area goes until this character.
folded: EV_FOLDING_AREA -> BOOLEAN
is it folded or not?
fold: EV_FOLDING_AREA -> EV_FOLDING_AREA
fold the area.
unfold: EV_FOLDING_AREA -> EV_FOLDING_AREA
fold the area.
content: EV_FOLDING_AREA x EV_FOLDING_WIDGET -> STRING
the content of the area.

the structure would be controlled by the controller witch knows of the AST.

as always, this is only a proposal.

Here a link to an interesting paper about ADTs and text editors (node 15): http://www.cs.unm.edu/~crowley/papers/sds/sds.html
Are you able to see the figures?

no images over here, either... but here's a download of said paper: crowley98data.ps

working title of the project

A few ideas:

  • Folding -> falten -> eiffel-origami
  • FEES : Folding editor for Eiffel Studio
  • hidden beauty project
  • HYCs : Hide your code
  • Folding Fields
  • Heilige Dreifaltigkeit

any comments from team members?

Bayt I really like origamiE :-)

Bru origamiE is cool. Another propasal: FEdEX (Folding: an Editor Extension or an Eiffel eXtension)
