Hi Ted!
Just a little note to say that the bug which you uncovered regarding
array probing has been fixed!
Explanation:
------------
Until now the default behaviour of the probing mechanism upon encountering
a variable which it did not know how to display, was to print out the type
of that variable (in a special objective-c runtime system encoding).
Unfortunately, in the case of arrays the encoding contains square brackets,
which confuse the Tcl/Tk interpreter when it is asked to display the typing.
Fix:
----
The new behaviour of the probe (next release of Swarm) will be to print
"..." when it encounters a variable which it cannot represent properly.
Of course, in the long run we would like to allow the representation of
arrays, structs, etc.
Regards,
Manor.
