Libraries

The framework provides these libraries:

• Entire Framework
  • (require-library "framework.ss" "framework") This library adds all of the definitions and macros in this manual to the top-level.
  • (require-library "frameworks.ss" "framework")

    This library adds a signature definitions framework^ and signature definitions for each of the constituent units for the "frameworkr.ss" unit. It also requires the macro.ss library, the tests.ss library.

  • (require-library "frameworkr.ss" "framework")

    This library returns a unit/sig that imports two units. The first must be the result of (require-library "corer.ss") and the second must be mred@, which is built in to PLT MrEd: Graphical Toolbox Manual.

    This unit exports several sub-units. Each sub unit corresponds to one chapter in the Reference part of this manual.

  • (require-library "macro.ss" "framework") This defines the mixin macro. See the mixin section for more information.

• Test Suite Engine
  • (require-library "test.ss" "framework") This library adds all of the definitions in the test section to the top-level.
  • (require-library "tests.ss" "framework")

    This library adds all of the signature definitions needed for the testing engine to the top-level.

  • (require-library "testr.ss" "framework")

    This library returns a unit/sig that imports two units. The first must be mred@, which is built in to MrEd, and the second must be the result of (require-library "keys.ss" "framework")

  • (require-library "keys.ss" "framework")

    This library returns a unit/sig that imports nothing. It matches the framework:keys^ signature, defined by the "tests.ss" library, described above.

The framework provides libraries to accomodate two styles of program construction: with units and through the top-level. Programmers who only use the top-level to construct their programs should use "framework.ss". Programmers who use units to construct their programs should first require "frameworks.ss" and then use "frameworkr.ss" to construct their programs.
