We can also synchronize CODTC and FOTDC in order to comment classes related to the fix. Now we just need someone to lead the FOTDC. I already do COTDC so is there a good soul ?

Re: [Pharo-project] Funky BalloonMorph

I added the BalloonMorph class>>initialize in the same ticket http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3694 Steph, can you recall me if the class initialize method is called automatically at start up or something like that or does it need to be called manually?

[Pharo-project] How to manage removed classes, ScriptLoader and Undeclared ?

by Mariano Martinez Peck

Hi guys. It seems when a class is removed, and used by ScriptLoader, it goes to Undeclared, logically. Example: SMxHandMorph was removed. However, ScriptLoader >> update13143 did something with such class. So, now, it is in Undeclared. How can we correctly solve this kind of problem? 1) Always use "Smalltalk at:" and #perform: in ScriptLoader updates? 2) remove those #update methods ? 3) Fix the broken ones by Smalltalk at: a and #perform: ? Thanks -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com
