This class provides a text editor specialized for editing lists of
Itcl classes. These class lists can be used to generate an
graphical class diagram.
This tool is automatically invoked whenever you open any file with a
".icl" extension (.icl stands for Itcl Class List).
The ItclClassList class is derived from
the Edit class,
and therefore inherits all of its features.
The Itcl Class List tool consists of a tool bar and a windowpane
containing the current list of itcl classes. Usually, the user adds
classes to the list and then generates a class diagram.
Toolbar
The tool bar consists of the following buttons:
- Include Tycho
- This button inserts the names of all of the Tycho Itcl files into
the current list. This is especially useful if you want to make a
custom diagram of the Tycho classes and classes the you are working on.
- Include Directory
- This button brings up a file browser and prompts the user to
select a file in a directory. All of the
*.itcl
and
*.itk
files are then added to the current list of Itcl
files.
- Clear
- This button clears the entire contents of the current list.
- Diagram File Name
- This button brings up a file browser that allows the you to
select the file name of class diagram to be produced. The class
diagram that is produced is a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG), so the
diagram file name should have a
.dag
extension.
- Update Class Diagram
- This button generates a class diagram from the current list of
files. The class diagram is a DAG, so the EditDAG
class is used.
