Update of /cvsroot/sbcl/sbcl
In directory sc8-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv32115
Modified Files:
NEWS version.lisp-expr
Log Message:
0.8.3.5:
DOCUMENTATION fixes:
... make generic function documentation findable;
... systematize DOCUMENTATION support, by having one method per
specified method, so adding support for STANDARD-METHODs
and for METHOD-COMBINATIONs
... refactor :RANDOM-DOCUMENTATION :STUFF stuff into an
auxiliary pair of functions, and use them in
COMPILER-MACRO and METHOD-COMBINATION methods;
... also set documentation in
LOAD-{SHORT,LONG}-METHOD-COMBINATION
(there's still some leftover refactoring to be done, and maybe
a systematic test suite to be written...)
