Re: evil hack in buffer.c, and need for internal docs onwidgetcode

The hook needs to be called when this list changes so that the tabs instantiators get updated (not their display). Given *where* it is called you need to make sure that it *is* called. The hook is bogus for the example you give above, you would put it on find-file-hooks and redisplay would take care of the rest. Yes, but Ben the whole point is finding an appropriate place to change the tab instantiators when a buffer changes, there were no hooks that I was aware of that would do this and putting it on record-buffer seemed about the only effective way of doing this. Changing the content of the gutter should (and does) cause the gutter to be redisplayed, if this is not the case then it is a bug that will not be helped by the change I made. I fixed your original bug report about this so I assume you are referring to something different - an example would help. andy -------------------------------------------------------------- Dr Andy Piper Principal Consultant, BEA Systems Ltd
