[ALLY] About Rebol/View/Desktop

 [1/10] from: etienne:alaurent:free at: 4-May-2001 0:38


Hi, I would like to see the code for Desktop in Rebol/View (it could be very educational). How can I do to see it ? Cheers.

Hi, Use the 'source command like this source desktop and after that : source ctx-viewtop I'm a newbie and haven't enough time to explore ...! Have a lot of fun and good luck ;-)) Ronald

Hi, Ronald I tested this before in my linux box, and I obtained a frozen Rebol console (I don't know why) without any code. Merci quand même ! Cheers Etienne <---------------------------------> Le ven, 04 mai 2001, vous avez écrit :

If you came back after 30 mins or so, you would have seen the source scrolling down :-) -- Graham Chiu

I'm waiting.. I "source ctx-desktop" IMHO it looks like that ctx-desktop is HUGE word and decompiling it takes a lot of time.. at lest Rebol keeps allocation/freeing dynamic memory (win2k) so it's not totally frosen.. I noticed that Rebol keeps allocating/freeing memory quite a lot.. I think some kind of local pool might be faster than continuously using system calls... OTOH this is perhaps not typical way to use Rebol (so far: 14 minutes Cpu-time, 35megabytes of memory and 22million page-faults ... This on 700MHz Duron with 256MB ram :) Joanna

Hi Etienne Try this. Set your user prefs so that the desktop does not automatically come up, i.e. View boots into the console. Verify that ctx-viewtop is a block. block? ctx-viewtop ;should return true Then type these lines in the console. echo %viewtop.txt print mold ctx-viewtop echo none The code will appear in the text file. -Larry ----- Original Message ----- From: "Etienne ALAURENT" <[etienne--alaurent--free--fr]> To: <[rebol-list--rebol--com]> Sent: Thursday, May 03, 2001 4:19 PM Subject: [REBOL] Re: About Rebol/View/Desktop Hi, Ronald I tested this before in my linux box, and I obtained a frozen Rebol console (I don't know why) without any code.

Here is a starting point. Can anyone get to this code in a system object browser?
>> source desktop
desktop: func [][ if block? ctx-viewtop [ctx-viewtop: context ctx-viewtop] ctx-viewtop/init-desktop do-events ]
>> type? ctx-viewtop
== object!
>> probe first ctx-viewtop
== [self dtw-skin reb-folder reb-icon suffix-map dtw-open this-path folder-stack index-cache image-cache icon-space dtf-slide-max h... ...init-desktop]
>> probe get in ctx-viewtop 'init-desktop
func [][ dbug ["Desktop boot" now] windowize-dtw resize-dtw reskin-dtw dtw-skin view/new/options/title dtw-face [resize] "Desktop" etc... ] Anton.

You most likely have 2 different versions of View installed. The first release did not create the local folder, and you had to do it by hand, editing the desktop/bookmarks.r file. -- Graham Chiu
