Metaprogramming Ruby Prepared exclusively for Shohei Tanaka What Readers Are Saying About Metaprogramming Ruby Reading this book was like diving into a new world of thinking. I tried a mix of Java and JRuby metaprogramming on a recent project. Using Java alone would now feel like entering a sword fight carrying only a banana, when my opponent is wielding a one-meter-long Samurai blade. Sebastian Hennebrüder Java Consultant and Trainer, laliluna.de This Ruby book fills a gap between language reference manuals and programming cookbooks. Not only does it explain various meta- programming facilities, but it also shows a pragmatic way of making software smaller and better. There’s a caveat, though; when the new knowledge sinks in, programming in more mainstream languages will start feeling like a chore. Jurek Husakowski Software Designer, Philips Applied Technologies Before this book, I’d never found a clear organization and explanation of concepts like the Ruby object model, closures, DSLs definition, and eigenclasses all spiced with real-life examples taken from the gems we usually use every day. This book is definitely worth reading. Carlo Pecchia Software Engineer I’ve had a lot of trouble finding a good way to pick up these meta- programming techniques, and this book is bar none the best way to do it. Paolo Perrotta makes it painless to learn Ruby’s most complex secrets and use them in practical applications.

Metaprogramming comes from Lisp (and Smalltalk). It’s a bit like magic, which makes something astonish- ing possible. There are two kinds of magic: white magic, which does good things, and black magic, which can do nasty things. Likewise, there are two aspects to metaprogramming. If you discipline yourself, you can do good things, such as enhancing the language without tweaking its syntax by macros or enabling internal domain-specific languages. But you can fall into the dark side of metaprogramming. Metaprogramming can confuse easily. Ruby trusts you. Ruby treats you as a grown-up programmer. It gives you great power such as metaprogramming. But you need to remember that with great power comes great responsibility. Enjoy programming in Ruby. matz October 2009 Prepared exclusively for Shohei Tanaka Acknowledgments Before I begin, I need to thank a few people.

  • Practical Example of Tcl Command Design in a Qt/C++ Graphical Application Tony Johnson October 18Th, 2017 Tony [email protected]
    Practical Example of Tcl Command Design in a Qt/C++ Graphical Application Tony Johnson October 18th, 2017 [email protected] Abstract Tcl provides excellent support for creating complicated user commands in applications that have correct-by-construction built-in help, support for hidden commands, support for position- independent switches, and more. This paper discusses the technical details for how we created one such command in our Qt-based application. Summary In this paper I will discuss the technical details around the design for the Tcl “wave” command in our Qt-based [1] application. Visualizer is a GUI for displaying and analyzing simulation waveforms. It is driven by the user either via standard GUI operations such as menu selections, button clicks, drag and drop, key accelerators, etc or via commands passed in through a command prompt which is a Tcl shell. Because GUI operations are inherently difficult to automate among other reasons, there was a strong need to have a command for our waveform window that could do everything that could be done via the GUI. Since we already had a Tcl shell in our application, the obvious answer was to create a Tcl command to provide this capability. Luckily Tcl is well suited for implementing such a complex command. Background and Motivation Command-based control of graphical user interface interactions is important for many different reasons. The four key reasons that motivated this work were: Testing; User Control; 3rd Party Access; Save/Restore; and Expandability. Testing Unless you want to retest the GUI operations in your application by hand with every major release, minor release, feature addition and bug fix (trust me, you don’t), then you will want to have some way to create automated tests for GUI interactions.

Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Inger S. B. Brodey Todd Ramón Ochoa Marsha S. Collins Tanya L. Shields Madeline G. Levine © 2016 Donato Fhunsu ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Donato Fhunsu: The Kongo Rule: The Palo Monte Mayombe Wisdom Society (Reglas de Congo: Palo Monte Mayombe) A Book by Lydia Cabrera An English Translation from the Spanish (Under the direction of Inger S. B. Brodey and Todd Ramón Ochoa) This dissertation is a critical analysis and annotated translation, from Spanish into English, of the book Reglas de Congo: Palo Monte Mayombe, by the Cuban anthropologist, artist, and writer Lydia Cabrera (1899-1991). Cabrera’s text is a hybrid ethnographic book of religion, slave narratives (oral history), and folklore (songs, poetry) that she devoted to a group of Afro-Cubans known as “los Congos de Cuba,” descendants of the Africans who were brought to the Caribbean island of Cuba during the trans-Atlantic Ocean African slave trade from the former Kongo Kingdom, which occupied the present-day southwestern part of Congo-Kinshasa, Congo-Brazzaville, Cabinda, and northern Angola. The Kongo Kingdom had formal contact with Christianity through the Kingdom of Portugal as early as the 1490s.

  • Squish for Java Data Sheet
    Home: www.froglogic.com E-Mail: [email protected] Evaluation: www.froglogic.com/evaluate ...one leap ahead Squish® for Java® DATA SHEET Functional GUI testing is a vital part of the development and QA process of today©s complex GUI applications. Manually testing the GUI of an application is error-prone, unreliable, unpredictable and slow. Automating this process on the other hand, allows to reliably deliver results quickly, enabling developers to find and fix regressions in nearly no time. This does not only save time but also money. Squish for Java is the most powerful automated GUI testing tool for Java™ Swing/AWT, SWT and Eclipse® Rich Client Platform (RCP) applications. Squish for Java offers dedicated support and tight integration for these GUI toolkits. Using the comfortable Squish IDE, tests are created using Squish©s event recorder. Verification and synchronization points can be easily inserted. Squish allows the user to choose between popular and open scripting languages such as Python, JavaScript, Perl and Tcl for test scripts. Therefore the complete set of language features, in addition to Squish©s test-specific APIs can be used to create powerful and robust tests. Squish for Java recognizes all standard Java GUI controls and offers special support for complex widgets such as tree-, table-, list and menu controls. In addition Squish for Java recognizes custom Java controls. Squish for Java©s mechanism to identify Java GUI widgets is very robust to make sure Squish tests will keep working while the application evolves. Squish for Java provides access to the complete Java API via its test scripting languages and offers access to all objects and properties via the Spy and verification point editor.
