• Wrote the first incarnation of the redesigned detail view to use trees of blocks. I ran into a lots of snags and one remains so I haven't checked in my code. I'm working around several snags which include:
• I'd like to have a kind that refers it's view. This involves creating a new subclass of Kind Kind, called ContentKind, adding an attribute for the view. I couldn't get this to work, although Andi says it should. It might be a problem with parcel xml, I tried to explain it to Morgen, but he still seems a bit confused about what I'm trying to do.
• I need a dictionary whose key is a kind and stores a reference to a view. The repository doesn't support such data structures, so I'm hacking it by using UUID stored as strings instead of references.
• The remaining stag I'm having trouble is wiring up the new view into wxWidgets. I'm quite close, but not there yet.
• I emailed Bryan my diffs so he could work on it while I'm gone if he chooses. If anyone wants to see the code before I return, let him know and he can send you the diffs.
