Hi Ari (and Novamente people),
So I've implemented a fresh add that uses dummy Contexts. I'm now
considering the best way to implement retrieval of version specific
TruthValues, since one can no longer can simply use the Handle, as the
VersionHandle is also needed to recall a specific TruthValue.
My idea was to use a pair<Handle,VersionHandle> in place of Handle
within the boost::variant Vertex. The tricky pointer/type distinction
can still go on with the Handle part of the pair. I want to check
first however before going ahead with it, since the Vertex variant is
used within AtomSpace for an addAtom method and within AtomSpace
utility files, so perhaps there are other things within Novamente that
would be impacted if they are being ported to OpenCog?
Cheers,
J

Joel,
once I finally got to the linking stage, MSVS finds 104 errors and then
crashes. It may be due to some of the very long template error messages.
I used to compile novamente code without serious problems in spring 2007.
Perhaps the OpenCog has added some special extra complication there... I've
never seen anything like this with MSVS; I'm using the 2005 version.
Anyway, since I'm not going to be helpful with the code anytime soon, I'll
prioritize giving you some of those screencasts regarding the most important
PLN classes.

Still working on compiling it? Sorry it's a pain :/
In the BZR branch I've recently added a function stub to add atoms in
dummy contexts and hopefully will get this done by the end of the
week. I'm somewhat confident about what I have to do to allow the
addition of atoms emulating fresh functionality, but a little hazy on
how to provide the recall of those atoms since instead of handle
they'll also need a version handle (or the index of the dummy context
used).
