method (send a-drracket:language:language create-executable       settings       parent       program-filename)

→ void?

settings : settings

parent : (or/c (is-a?/c dialog%) (is-a?/c frame%))

program-filename : string?

This method creates an executable in the given language. The program-filename is the name of the program to store in the executable and executable-filename is the name of a file where the executable goes.

See also drracket:language:create-module-based-stand-alone-executable and drracket:language:create-module-based-launcher.

method (send a-drracket:language:language default-settings)

→ settings

Specifies the default settings for this language.

method (send a-drracket:language:language default-settings? settings)

→ boolean?

settings : settings

Return #t if the input settings matches the default settings obtained via default-settings.

method (send a-drracket:language:language first-opened settings)

→ void?

settings : settings

This method is called after the language is initialized, but no program has yet been run. It is called from the user’s eventspace’s main thread.

See also initialize-console.

Calling this method should not escape. DrRacket calls this method in a parameterize where the error-escape-handler is set to an escaping continuation that continues initializing the interactions window. Thus, raising an exception will report the error in the user’s interactions window as if this were a bug in the user’s program. Escaping in any other way, however, can cause DrRacket to fail to start up.

Also, IO system will deadlock if the first-opened method does IO on the user’s IO ports, so the calling context of first-opened sets the current-output-port and current-error-port to ports that just collect all of the IO that happened and then replay it later in the initialization of the user’s program.

Contrary to the method contract spec, DrRacket will also invoke this method if it has zero arguments, passing nothing; the zero argument version is for backwards compatibility and is not recommended.

method (send a-drracket:language:language front-end/complete-program       port       settings)

→ (-> (or/c sexp/c syntax? eof-object?))

port : port?

settings : settings

front-end/complete-program method reads and parses a program in the language. The port argument contains all of the data to be read (until eof) and the name of the port (obtained via object-name) is a value representing the source of the program (typically an editor, but may also be a string naming a file or some other value). The settings argument is the current settings for the language.

The front-end/complete-program method is expected to return a thunk that is called repeatedly to get all of the expressions in the program. When all expressions have been read, the thunk is expected to return eof.

This method is only called for programs in the definitions window. Notably, it is not called for programs that are loaded or evaled. See current-load and current-eval for those.

This method is expected to raise an appropriate exception if the program is malformed, eg an exn:syntax or exn:read.

This is called on the user’s thread, as is the thunk it returns.

Implementations of this method should not return fully expanded expressions, since there are two forms of expansion, using either expand or expand-top-level-with-compile-time-evals and the use of the expanded code dictates which applies.

See also front-end/interaction and front-end/finished-complete-program.

method (send a-drracket:language:language front-end/finished-complete-program settings)

→ any

settings : settings

This method is called when Run is clicked, but only after front-end/complete-program has been called. Specifically, front-end/complete-program is first called to get a thunk that reads from the program. That thunk is called some number of times, eventually returning eof, or raising an exception. Then, this method is called.

This method is called on the user’s main eventspace thread, and without a prompt or other control delimiter. It must return without raising an error, or else the DrRacket window will be wedged.

method (send a-drracket:language:language front-end/interaction       port       settings)

→ (-> (or/c sexp/c syntax? eof-object?))

port : input-port?

settings : settings

This method is just like front-end/complete-program except that it is called with program fragments, for example the expressions entered in the interactions window. It is also used in other contexts by tools to expand single expressions.

See also front-end/finished-complete-program.

method (send a-drracket:language:language get-comment-character)

→   string?   char?

Returns text to be used for the “Insert Large Letters” menu item in DrRacket. The first result is a prefix to be placed at the beginning of each line and the second result is a character to be used for each pixel in the letters.

method (send a-drracket:language:language get-language-name)

→ string?

Returns the name of the language, as shown in the REPL when executing programs in the language and in the bottom left of the DrRacket window.

method (send a-drracket:language:language get-language-numbers)

→ (cons/c number? (listof number?))

This method is used in a manner analogous to get-language-position.

Each element in the list indicates how the names at that point in dialog will be sorted. Names with lower numbers appear first. If two languages are added to DrRacket with the same strings (as given by the get-language-position method) the corresponding numbers returned by this method must be the same. Additionally, no two languages can have the same set of numbers.

(Note: this method should always return the same result, for the same language.)

method (send a-drracket:language:language get-language-position)

→ (cons/c string? (listof string?))

This method returns a list of strings that is used to organize this language with the other languages. Each entry in that list is a category or subcategory of the language and the last entry in the list is the name of the language itself. In the language dialog, each element in the list except for the last will be a nested turn down triangle on the left of the dialog. The final entry will be the name that the user can choose to select this language. Names that are the same will be combined into the same turndown entry.

For example, if one language’s position is:

(list "General Category" "Specific Category" "My Language")

and another’s is:

(list "General Category" "Specific Category" "My Other Language")

The language dialog will collapse the first two elements in the list, resulting in only a pair of nested turn-down triangles, not parallel pairs of nested turn-down triangles.

method (send a-drracket:language:language get-language-url)

→ (or/c string? #f)

Specification: Returns a url for the language. Default implementation: If the result isn’t #f, the name of the language is clickable in the interactions window and clicking takes you to this url.

method (send a-drracket:language:language get-metadata   modname       settings)

→ string?

modname : symbol?

settings : any/c

This method is only called when get-reader-module returns an sexp.

It is expected to return a string that contains N lines, where N is the result of calling get-metadata-lines. The string is prefixed to the buffer before the file is saved by DrRacket, and removed from the buffer after it is opened in DrRacket.

The string is expect to be a prefix to the file that sets up a reader for files in this language, using #reader.

The modname argument’s printed form is the same as the file’s name, but without the path, and without an extension. The settings argument is the current language’s settings value.

See also metadata->settings, get-metadata-lines, and get-reader-module.

method (send a-drracket:language:language get-metadata-lines)

→ number?

This method is only called when get-reader-module returns an sexp.

The result of the method is a count of the number of lines in the strings that get-metadata returns. The get-metadata function does not necessarily return the same string each time it is called (see metadata->settings) but it is expected to always return a string with a fixed number of lines, as indicated by the result of this method.

method (send a-drracket:language:language get-one-line-summary)

→ string?

Specification: The result of this method is shown in the language dialog when the user selects this language. Default implementation:

method (send a-drracket:language:language get-reader-module)

→ (or/c sexp-representing-a-require-spec #f)

The result of this method is used when saving or loading files.

If the result is a sexp, saved files get a prefix inserted at the beginning (the prefix is determined by calling get-metadata). When the file is then loaded, DrRacket recognizes this prefix and sets the language back to match the saved file.

See also metadata->settings, get-metadata-lines, and get-metadata.

method (send a-drracket:language:language get-style-delta)

→   (or/c #f       (is-a?/c style-delta%)       (listof (list/c (is-a?/c style-delta%)                       number?                       number?)))

The style delta that this method returns is used in the language dialog and the DrRacket REPL when the language’s name is printed.

When it is #f, no styling is used.

If the result is a list, each element is expected to be a list of three items, a style-delta, and two numbers. The style delta will be applied to the corresponding portion of the name.

method (send a-drracket:language:language extra-repl-information       settings       port)

→ void?

settings : settings

port : output-port?

This method is called on the DrRacket eventspace main thread to insert extra information into the REPL to reflect the state of the program.

It is used, for example, to print out the “Teachpack” lines in the HtDP languages.

method (send a-drracket:language:language marshall-settings settings)

→ writable

settings : settings

Translates an instance of the settings type into a Racket object that can be written out to disk.

method (send a-drracket:language:language metadata->settings metadata)

→ settings

metadata : string?

This method is only called when get-reader-module returns an sexp.

When a file is opened in DrRacket, if this language’s get-reader-module returns an sexp, the prefix of the file (the first N lines, where N is the number returned by get-metadata-lines) is scanned for "#reader" followed by the result of get-reader-module. If that pattern is found, the language is set to this language. Also, the entire prefix is passed, as a string, to this method which returns a settings value, used as the settings for this language.

method (send a-drracket:language:language on-execute       settings       run-on-user-thread)

→ any

settings : settings

run-on-user-thread : ((-> any) -> any)

The on-execute method is called on DrRacket’s eventspace’s main thread before any evaluation happens when the Run button is clicked. It is also called when a new DrRacket tab (or window) is created to initialize the empty interactions window.

Use this method to initialize Racket’s Parameters for the user. When this function is called, the user’s thread has already been created, as has its custodian. These parameters have been changed from the defaults in Racket:

• current-custodian is set to a new custodian.

• current-namespace has been set to a newly created empty namespace. This namespace has the following modules copied (with namespace-attach-module) from DrRacket’s original namespace:

  • 'mzscheme

  • 'mred

• read-curly-brace-as-paren is #t,

• read-square-bracket-as-paren is #t,

• The port-write-handler and port-display-handler have been set to procedures that call pretty-print and pretty-display instead of write and display. When pretty-print and pretty-display are called by these parameters, the pretty-print-columns parameter is set to 'infinity, so the output looks just like write and display. This is done so that special scheme values can be displayed as snips.

• The current-print-covert-hook is to a procedure so that snip%s are just returned directly to be inserted into the interactions text% object.

• The output and input ports are set to point to the interactions window with these parameters: current-input-port, current-output-port, and current-error-port.

• The event-dispatch-handler is set so that DrRacket can perform some initial setup and close down around the user’s code.

• The current-directory and current-load-relative-directory are set to the directory where the definitions file is saved, or if it isn’t saved, to the initial directory where DrRacket started up.

• The snip-class-list, returned by get-the-snip-class-list is initialized with all of the snipclasses in DrRacket’s eventspace’s snip-class-list.

• The error-print-source-location parameter is set to #f and the error-display-handler is set to a handler that creates an error message from the exception record, with font and color information and inserts that error message into the definitions window.

The run-on-user-thread arguments accepts thunks and runs them on the user’s eventspace’s main thread. The output ports are not yet functioning, so print outs should be directed to the original DrRacket output port, if necessary.

This thunk is wrapped in a with-handlers that catches all exceptions matching exn:fail? and then prints out the exception message to the original output port of the DrRacket process.

method (send a-drracket:language:language order-manuals manuals)

→   (listof bytes?)   boolean?

manuals : (listof bytes?)

Returns a sublist of its input, that specifies the manuals (and their order) to search in. The boolean result indicates if doc.txt files should be searched.

method (send a-drracket:language:language render-value   value       settings       port)

→ void?

value : TST

settings : settings

This method is just like render-value/format except that it is expected to put the entire value on a single line with no newline after the value.

method (send a-drracket:language:language render-value/format       value       settings       port       width)

→ void?

value : TST

settings : settings

port : port?

width : (or/c number? 'infinity)

This method is used to print values into a port, for display to a user. The final argument is a maximum width to use (in characters) when formatting the value.

This method is expected to format the value by inserting newlines in appropriate places and is expected to render a newline after the value.

See also render-value.

method (send a-drracket:language:language unmarshall-settings input)

  = (list "(define" "(define ...)" "δ") — specifies the prefix that the define popup should look for and what label it should have, or #f if it should not appear at all. Text is found only when it is not in a comment or string literal.

  If the list of three strings alternative is used, the first string is the prefix that is looked for when finding definitions. The second and third strings are used as the label of the control, in horizontal and vertical mode, respectively.

  If it is a list of lists, then multiple prefixes are used for the definition pop-up. The name of the popup menu is based only on the first element of the list. When a nested list contains fourth and fifth elements, they can supply replacements (when not #f) for the default functions that find a prefix and extract the subsequent name. See Definition Popup-Menu Navigation for information about the protocols for the finding and extraction procedures.

  The pair of strings alternative is deprecated. If it is used, the pair (cons a-str b-str) is the same as (list a-str b-str "δ").
