he he he. thanks Fernando. and really really happy that you find it useful.
but is see maybe an issue here. It concerns the pragma keyword. It is currently a global keyword. Maybe one should also allow a way to specify where the pragma are to be collected. maybe something like:
MyMorph>>menuBuilder    ^ (PragmaMenuBuilder localPragmaKeyword: 'tileMenu' model: self )
notice the #localPragmaKeyword:model selector instead of #pragmaKeyword:model. it would constraint the builder to only search pragma locally. does it make sense to you ?
Cheers Alain
Yes, searching the class only would be a good idea, I'd almost consider making it the default and rename #pragmaKeyword: to #globalPragmaKeyword:. It's faster, and in most cases it does what you need, also in the case where you want  extensibility (through extension methods, only risk is clashing names)
Cheers, Henry
Hi, since i'm new to pragmas could you please explain me the diference between global and local searches. I dont understand to whom the local and global context applies to, when using #localPragmaKeyword:model: as oposed to #pragmaKeyword:model:. Fernando
