Ciao,
i have some packages with some class definition.
Now the package1 define Class1 and Class2 with some reference to classA and classB defined into pachageA.
packageA other hand, have some reference to class1 and class2.
Now my question is:
i can load the package1 and packageA without other considerations,
leaving the system to resolve references as classes are loaded?
No, I donât think so. You will receive a warning and can then proceed. That will compile the methods but the class references will have been compiled as nil references. So you will need to recompile those methods afterwards.
But if i used the Metacello baseline or configuration definition		 i can load with 	#atomic 	load types?

With this load types i solve my problematic?

Now when i  load a baseline definition with :

	| pathToPackageDirectory |
	"edit to match the path to your chosen package directory"
	pathToPackageDirectory := '/DTRDevelopment'.
	Metacello new
	  baseline: 'DtrBase';
 	 repository: 'filetree://', pathToPackageDirectory;
	  load.

	how i can define the load types?

	Thanks,

If these classes need each other, then they probably belong into the same package.
Just to be clear, what do you mean by âpackageâ? If you are referring to something like âMY-Coreâ and âMY-Viewâ but both are loaded when loading the Monticello package âMYâ then it will work. If you load âMY-Coreâ and âMy-Viewâ as separate Monticello packages the above will happen.
