view source

[amitu]

If a component or record is defined as:

-- component foo:
-- end: foo

Then foo.SOURCE is a string that shows the definition of foo.

This is largely helpful for documentation purpose.

Source Of A Block

-- block optional-name:
-- integer x: 20

-- foo:

-- end: optional-name

-- ftd.text: $optional-name.SOURCE

Source Would Be Record

-- record ftd.source:
string module:
integer start-line-number:
string code:
string list lines:
