I'm developing a number of classes where it would be convenient to be

instance variable, but is still useful when inspecting.

I can obviously develop an inspector extension for my application, but
was wondering if there is a framework in place that allows a list of
attributes to be declared that can also be inspected in a similar
fashion to normal instance variables.

Many thanks to Doru and everyone who has contributed to the GT Inspector
framework.�� It has significantly influenced my development and the
architecture of the software I'm currently working on (in a positive
way, of course).


Would it be feasible to have a "CalculationSlot"
that was read only, and each time it was read it performed the calculation?
