- Supports and initiated the idea of Design by contract - pre- and postconditions, loop variants etc.
- Has an elegant model for multiple inheritance
- Has an impressive semantic model to back up what is going on during object creation and manipulation
- Has had garbage collection built in from the early beginnings
http://www.purl.org/NET/Tcl-FAQ/part1.html says:D. Eiffelmailto:[email protected] (Stephan Herrmann) says:... [the tclish package provides] the marriage of two very different principles by means of combining two programming languages into a hybrid program architecture.There are three classes for the user - tcl interpretor, tk application, and tk window. See ftp://hepunx.rl.ac.uk/pub/eiffel/tclish for details.
What: [TclEiffel] Where: http://www.eiffel-forum.org/archive/bergmeyer/tcl-eiffel.htm Description: A GUI extension to SmallEiffel 0.80. Based on Tcl/Tk 8.0. Works on Linux and on Windows 95 with CygWin32. Updated: 10/1998 Contact: Unknown (Joachim Bergmeyer)
What: tclMIDI Where: ftp://ftp.boogie.com/pub/midi/ ftp://ftp.procplace.com/pub/tcl/sorted/apps/tclmidi/4.1/ http://madonna.me.berkeley.edu/~greg/tclmidi/ ftp://xor.com/pub/midi/tclmidi-3.1.tar.gz ftp://ftp.sterling.com/usenet/comp.sources.misc/packages/tclm/ Description: Tclm is Tcl extended with dynamically loadable standard MIDI file manipulation commands. It is designed for creating and editing standard MIDI files. With the proper device interface it can also be used to play and record MIDI files. This runs on Unix and Windows. It comes with a device driver to interface with a few types of MIDI cards (MPU401, MQX32, Gravis UltraSound and SoundBlaster) and also supports using your serial port as a MIDI interface. The new maintainer of this code has rewritten the original Tclmidi in Eiffel. It requires Tcl 8.x and SmallEiffel -0.79, midi-eiffel. The latest version of tclmidi is v4.1 and the latest version of midi-eiffel is v1.1 Updated: 09/1999 Contact: mailto:[email protected] (Mike Durian)
What: [Tk for SmallEiffel] Where: http://home.pages.de/~jbergmeyer/ Description: Small extension for SmallEiffel which provides a GUI by connecting to a Tcl/Tk interpreter via a socket class. Updated: 10/1998 Contact: mailto:[email protected] (Joachim Bergmeyer)
What: [Omo] Where: http://hepunx.rl.ac.uk/packages/omo.html http://hepunx.rl.ac.uk/pub/packages/omo.tar.Z Description: A design and reverse engineering tool able to accept and generate Eiffel code. It supports a class model. Updated: 09/1998 Contact: mailto:[email protected]
What: [eiftcl] Where: ftp://ftp.procplace.com/pub/tcl/sorted/packages-7.6/devel/eiftcl.tar.gz Description: Provide basic facilities for combining the programming languages Eiffel and Tcl into a hybrid program architecture. Updated: 10/1998 Contact: mailto:[email protected] (Stephan Herrmann)
What: [Gweld-TclTk] Where: http://www.eiffel-forum.org/archive/tcltk/ Description: An Eiffel widget library, using Tcl as Eiffel classes. Works with SmallEiffel 0.86 and ISE Eiffel 4.0. Uses Tcl 4.2. Updated: 10/1998 Contact: Unknown (Roy Phillips)
