System

 [1/10] from: rsaathoff::datajunction::com at: 7-Jun-2001 12:45


Where can I find documentation for all the System/ methods? I haven't been able to find them on the internet. Is there some place I haven't looked? Ryan

REBOLiens: Again, where can we find documentation for System/methods ? Jeannot

... Hi, Jeannot, To my knowledge, the only comprehensive documentation of System/ is in reading the source itself. One way to get a complete document of the System/ at the mezzanine level is to type the following: echo %/path/to/my/system-1-2.txt probe system echo off It takes awhile, so don't be impatient, and the document will be about 1.5 MB large. Genuinely, if you wish to understand how something works, reading the mezzanine level of system is the way to do it. If you are looking for something in particular, there are shorter way to look. --Scott Jones

Or another way that's a little quicker is: save %system.dat system -jeff

Just out of curiosity, how long should this take? The first method ran for over an hour on a 0.5 GHz PIII under WinNT before I got this email and decided enough was enough. Jeff's method has been at it about an hour now. Ted

Hi, Ted, Whoa, there horsie. I think you've got a run away. If I recall correctly, if you are doing this from /View, then you must start /View in the console mode, otherwise, you'll get cyclic references/recursion. If you normally boot /View to the desktop, then click User on the menu bar, and uncheck the Open Desktop on Startup, close /View, then restart, then follow Jeff's directions. Sorry!!!!! It should take about 5 to 10 seconds. 8-0 --Scott Jones

Howdy, Ted: Sounds like you're using an old copy of REBOL. Mine runs in about a second on 200mhz machine. Older versions of REBOL would lock up on molding the SYSTEM object. -jeff

Hi Ted With Core 2.5 almost instantaneous. With View 1.2 on 450 Mhz PII Win98, booted to console (i.e., desktop not loaded)
>> t: now/time save %system.dat system now/time - t
== 0:00:09 -Larry

now. looong. if you do this after opening the desktop. somewhere is suggested to put the dumping in %user.r so nothing is opend. once faces are shown it goes quite heavy (if terminating at all).
