Dolphin Smalltalk, or "Dolphin" for short, is an implementation of the Smalltalk programming language for Microsoft Windows platform.
Contents
The Dolphin 7 version release coincided with the project going open source.
Dolphin is notable for its 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 convention of the Smalltalk MVC framework with the choice of a Model–view–presenter framework.
Code refactoring
Full integration of the Refactoring Browser tools from Refactory Inc.
System browser
Provides a package-based browsing environment as an alternative to a conventional Smalltalk class hierarchy browser.
IdeaSpace
A "tabbed" container for managing Dolphin browsers and tools and associating them together with a particular idea or workflow. The idea is to save screen space and clutter and to help developers focus on their train of thought.
Version control
Source code management very similar to the ENVY source code manager that was available for some other commercial Smalltalk dialects.
