But the default mechanism will be an optionnal module

Default includes: system/contexts/exports

cause frankly shaving off 100kb from rebol.exe... in an attempt to 
improve it... is like saying that life vests are in the life boats... 
but the life boats aren't accesible unless you are sinking.

I see no point in modularisation of current R3. It is still small. 
I just wish that we do plug-ins and interfacing, tasking, in really 
good way = good for concurrency environments ...
Maxim

there is a point where smaller isn't better.  it just gets annoying.

How about an on line compiling service ?  one use per month for free.
Maxim

python is a good example of this.  the language as a whole  got much 
better when they integrated the datatype manipulations libs within 
the datatype classes themselves.
BrianH

Pekr, just because it is modular doesn't mean that the modules won't 
be included. HTTP is handled by a module now.
Maxim

in any case, I do think carl does not want rebol to become an include 
festival.
so I'm not too worried.
Steeve

Actually, modules are just separated context to my mind, not really 
an astounding new features
we used context to have the same behavior in R2
BrianH
15-May-2009
[2552]
Carl wants REBOL development to be manageable. Modules make that 
happen. Just ask Reichart: Qtask is built on modules.
Maxim
15-May-2009
[2553]
astounding for some things yes.
BrianH

Having separated contexts and being able to manage them well is a 
big deal, for security and for ease of programming.

we can now add plugin interfaces to apps, without hackers being able 
to probe inside the main app, for example.
Steeve
15-May-2009
[2557x2]
but managing them well is the job of the programmer, we can do dirty 
design with modules too, having them now don't prevent us to do trashes
i mean with the contexts in R2 we can do nice design too
Maxim
15-May-2009
[2559]
this is a serious flaw in R2... if you want to store encryption keys 
within an application and want to provide some sort of plugin interface, 
you are pretty much fucked... people can rip your application appart, 
and there is nothing you can do about it...


a part creating a dialect, which is complicated as hell if you want 
to provide do-like syntax.
BrianH

[2560]
Ah, but having modules lets the work of the good programmers be protected 
from the bad programmers.
Steeve
15-May-2009
[2561]
Eh but we have only good programmers here :-)
Maxim

which are stymied because there are bad ones out there   ;-D

You know Brian, you can be a good programmer even without knowing 
Rebol :-)
but i agree, it's an heavy handicap to not knowing Rebol
BrianH
15-May-2009
[2575]
Yup. And you can have bad moments even if you are a good programmer. 
That's what this group is for :)

Ladislav put nice additions to DLL interfacing ... this should make 
wrapping more flexible ...
Maxim
15-May-2009
[2579]
it would be nice to be able to use the information they contain in 
the resource parts, basically auto-describing the dll themselves...
and use class members... in some way or another.
BrianH
15-May-2009
[2580]
We should really be talking about this in !REBOL3.
Maxim
15-May-2009

isn't it annyoing to be told to stay on-topic  !!??!?!   ;-)
BrianH

I only do it here. In R3 chat I move the messages.
Maxim

time if I start chatting there...

in R3 chat
