Re: [Bug-apl] Calling Value::print() with different ⎕PW

[Juergen Sauermann]

Hi Elias,

normally you do something like this:

// const Value & value;

PrintContext pctx(style, Workspace::get_PP(), Workspace::get_CT(), Workspace::get_PW());
PrintBuffer pb(value, pctx);
UCS_string ucs(pb, value.get_rank(), pctx.get_PW());
...

You can use your own ⎕PW value instead of Workspace::get_PW() above.

It is generally a bad idea if programs or functions other then the interpreter itself modify the data structures
of the interpreter because the functions of the interpreter make certain assumptions regarding the state of
its data structures. If other functions modify these data structures, then it becomes impossible for me to
maintain the interpreter.

In my native code, I would like to be able to get a printable representation of a Value_P as if ⎕PW was set to some very large value (effectively unlimited).

What is the most efficient way to do this?

I was trying to call assign on the return value from Workspace::get_v_Quad_PW(), but I got a DOMAIN ERROR (I suppose I made some silly mistake somewhere though) but I don't think that might be the best way to it.

Elias
