Hello guys,
Is there a reason this method use :
(Scanner isLiteralSymbol: '_') ifTrue: [ self initializeChars: '_' to: #alphabetic ] ifFalse: [ self initializeChars: '_' to: #special ].
and not
(Scanner allowUnderscoreAsAssignment) ifTrue: [ self initializeChars: '_' to: #special ] ifFalse:[ self initializeChars: '_' to: #alphabetic ]
?
Cheers,
Ben
Compatibility I would guess. In Squeak, allowUnderscoreAsAssignment is still a Preferences method.
No, it never was a method of Preferences. It's a pragma preference, but in Squeak 4.1 it has a different name, IIRC prefAllowUnderscoreAssignment. Levente
