This is a little awkward, there are lots of simple classes defined in racket/draw, font%, color%, pen%, brush% and so on. They just hold a group of plain data, hence opportunities to be inspected easily. However by default all classes are opaque, the easiest (and perhaps unique) way to handle this is to inherit them and implement the `printable<%>` or `writable<%>`.
Despite the wordy code and wasting little runtime space, the major problem is all those classes hide their (set-immutable) methods, even worse, the immutability is checked through the private field. As a consequence, subclasses of Pen% and Brush% copy color instances every time to make them immutable (and opaque) again... So is it okay to open that interface? Besides, With a long term plan, I want to improve the font infrastructure, meanwhile maybe font% also should provide a (get-handler) or (get-desc). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
