current design for Context’s virtual filesystem

Posted in consulting, Context, Naiad, Smalltalk, Spoon with tags , , , , , on 13 January 2014 by Craig Latta

I’m writing Context’s virtual filesystem support now. The directory structure looks like this:

--
root
   classes
      <each class>
         methods
            all
               <each method>
                  literals
                     <literal objects>
                  source
                  version
            inherited
               <inherited methods>
            local
               <locally-defined methods>
         slots
            all
               <each slot>
                  <instances ordered by slot>
                     references
                        <referring objects>
                     slots
                        <etc>
            inherited
               <etc>
            local
               <etc>
   processes
      <each process' suspended context>
         method
            instructions
            literals
               <literal objects>
         sender
            <etc>
   README.html
