[racket] Intended behavior of get-font method on control<%>?
Hi all,
I have been working on contracting classes in MrEd and I've stumbled on what
seems to be an inconsistency in documentation.
The docs for control<%> lists the following method contract:
(send a-control get-font) → (is-a?/c font%)
but if you try this on a button%, you'll get a funny result.
$ (send (make-object button% "Press me" (make-object frame% "Foo")) get-font)
. . procedure get-font method in basic-control%: expects 1 argument, given 0
button% appears to be implemented through basic-control%, but basic-control% in
turn just throws away the parameter in the implementation:
[get-font (lambda (e) (send wx get-font))] (line 77, mritem.rkt)
If you try calling the method with a parameter you get this:
$ (send (make-object button% "Press me" (make-object frame% "Foo")) get-font "junk")
. . send: no such method: get-font for class: ...private/wxwindow.rkt:136:4
Does anyone know what the intended behavior for this method is?
Thanks,
Asumu
