Dolphin Smalltalk, or "Dolphin" for short, is an implementation of the programming language Smalltalk for Microsoft Windows.
The Dolphin 7 version release coincided with the project becoming free and open-source software under an MIT License.[1]
Dolphin uses an integrated development environment. The toolset of this Smalltalk dialect include an integrated refactoring browser, a package browser and a WYSIWYG "view composer". Dolphin deviates from the conventional Smalltalk framework of model–view–controller (MVC), instead using model–view–presenter (MVP).
Features
[edit]- Integration of the Refactoring Browser tools from Refactory Inc.
- Package-based browsing environment as an alternative to a conventional Smalltalk class hierarchy browser.
- A tabbed container to manage Dolphin browsers and tools and associating them together with a given idea or workflow. The goal is to save screen space and clutter and to help developers focus on their train of thought.
- Source code management very similar to the ENVY source code manager that was available for some other commercial Smalltalk dialects.
