CoffeeScript with ColdMUD assumptions?

ColdMUD assumptions

  • All changes to objects persisted at end or suspension of task.

  • Task execution starts with network input or resumption of suspended tasks.

  • Handy sockets

  • So here's our hook

  • the engine handles the network and tasks

  • bounding with persistence is just book-keeping

ColdObjRef

In order to simplify messaging, ColdObjects view each other through references unique to each relationship. The reference knows who the sender and caller are and constructs the message accordingly. Even self-messaging goes through a reference so that the definer knows who the sender is.

class ColdObjRef
  constructor: ({@referrer, @referred}) ->

  createMessage: (methodName, args, sender = @referrer) ->
    new ColdMessage
      sender: sender
      caller: @referrer
      methodName: methodName
      args: args
      self: @referred
      definer: @referred.matchMethod @referrer, methodName, args
