XOTcl Is Not Snit
Sarnold 2005-10-05 -- I am trying to emulate snit with an XOTcl class...
What : Xoins Where : http://sarnold.free.fr/abandon/xoins.zip Version : 2006-02-20 v0.5, patchlevel 1 Description : Xoins is a package emulating snit with the same syntax. A great speed improvement is achieved by building types as XOTcl classes. Switching from snit types, widgets and widgetadaptors may only require a 'package require xoins', and then renaming 'snit::type' to 'xoins::type', widget and widgetadaptor require the same process, maybe more transformations if you are unlucky.
Has the speed improvement been quantified? Are there examples? - escargo 29 Sep 2006.
There are two examples and a snit vs xoins benchmark in the .zip file. xoins typically is twice faster than snit, and much more for object instanciation. - Sarnold 1 Oct 2006
schlenk Is this vs. snit 1 or the Tcl 8.5 using snit 2 (which is much faster in some operations)? And with which XOTcl version did you test.
The following Snidgets work fine with Xoins:
