Since Tuesday I worked with Philippe on how SCOOP may be interpreted and implemented in SmallEiffel. There are a lot of pitfalls not readily apparent with this keyword, "separate". We hope to achieve something, though.
Yesterday I wrote the C support for basic threading and message passing; today (and the following days?) I'll deal with SmallEiffel.
Yesterday I installed GPG too, my mails should now all be signed.
Well, that is my first entry, let's sum up a bit.
First of all, I'm not an English native, so expect some mistakes. My apologies, once and for all.
I work for an IS company (ALPLOG, France). Currently my client is Schlumberger, Besançon, France. I stop working for this client at the end of October.
I'll be in holidays till November, 12. I expect to work on SMerge, maybe I'll have some further look at the Eiffel mode (I hacked it a bit today).
I don't know yet where I'll work after that. I hope I will still be able to work on SMerge.
Wednesday I will see Philippe Ribet, a friend of mine (we are from the same school). Philippe is currently working for the SmallEiffel team. I should see Dominique Colnet too.
Well, time to get back home. I have no work left here at Schlumberger, these days are pretty boring. Looking forward being Wednesday 16h00...
New HTML Parser: The long-awaited libxml2 based HTML parser code is live. It needs further work but already handles most markup better than the original parser.
