Re: [Pharo-project] Auto create new and initialize methods for new class?

Anyway, we need to learn if we want to create things with something else than new... But I like basicNew initialize the way it is now. 2012/6/16 Stéphane Ducasse <stephane.ducasse@inria.fr>:

Stéphane, would you mind expanding a bit on what mistake CLOS didn't make?

create-instance invokes initialize-instance in CLOS for every class.

In Smalltalk (not squeak or pharo), new does not invoke initialize. Now CLOS arrived 10 years after Smalltalk and we fixed that problem in our lovely environment.
