Hi,

Nice to find another Smalltalker here. I guess you already have most of
your answer. Of course you still need some list of classes. With
phpPeanuts i have a classloading function that keeps such a list in a
global variable. It was meant for use with php4, to look up the
classname in original case from the lower case result php4's get_class
function gives, but i guess you can use it for other kinds of reflection
too:


function includeClass($className, $dirPath='') {
if ($dirPath && substr($dirPath, -1) != '/')
$dirPath .= '/';

$result = require_once("../classes/$dirPath"."$className.php");

if ($result)
$GLOBALS['PntIncludedClasses'][strtolower($className)] = $className;

return $result;
}


Greetings,

Henk Verhoeven,

BTW, if you also miss the senders and implementers search, you could
take a look at this hypercode browser:

(To my regret i did still did not find time to make it an aplha download..)
