Re: [Pharo-dev] SyntaxError: parentheses; cascades and yourself (Opal vs. old compilers parser)

Interesting. I think that for a cascade you need more than one message send.

The following method compiles with Opal:

createRedMorph ^ (self new color:Color red); yourself

but gives a syntax error with the old compilers parser

createRedMorph ^ (self new color:Color red)End of block expected -> ; yourself

removing the parenthesis of course works for both. Who is right ?

(for those who understand the ParseTreeSearcher syntax, how would a search expression look, for finding code like:

"(some expression);yourself"
