<p>Cuis has had support for arbitrary method properties for a long
time already, although it had no tool support and not much use for
them. They are stored in the optional AdditionalMethodState,
together with Pragmas. The properties are associations, and
behavior is Dictionary like. Keys are Symbols, and values are
literals. They are used for specifying methods to be included in
bootstrapped images and code libraries. They are don't affect code
behavior, and they are not part of a method source code. They are
'extra' metadata.</p>
<p>Bootstrap and Libraries are still in development, but they are
good enough to start experimenting with them. See, for instance,
senders of #MinimalKernel01 or #libraryName.</p>
<p>Recently I added a way to edit them in Browsers ('What to Show' /
'properties'), and added them (if present) to FileOuts and all
Chunk files.</p>
<p>They are useful for system level tools, and usually not so much
for applications.</p>
<p>Cheers,</p>

Folks,<br>
<br>
Recently I've been working on better handling of Method
Properties. This <br>
is something that most people never use, but it is really
handy when you <br>
need them.<br>
<br>
In a browser or method list do right click / show method
properties. By <br>
default you get an empty Array, but you can edit it to add
Associations <br>
as the comment there shows. Then save.<br>
<br>
Method properties are saved files in a new (optional)
section between <br>
the MethodDefinition and the method source code. Save
changesets or do <br>
file out with methods including properties to experiment
with this. See <br>
haw they are handled in the Changes List from files, etc.
Hope you like it.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
