Then I do not get why / is expecting a string and cannot accept a path. Then I do not get why we have paths. Stef On Fri, Feb 2, 2018 at 8:22 PM, Stephane Ducasse <stepharo.self@gmail.com> wrote:
HI
I have the following scenario:
'/Users/ducasse/Workspace/FirstCircle/MyBooks/Bk-Writing/PharoBooks/Booklet-AMiniSchemeInPharo/_result' asFileReference / 'book.pillar'
"File @ /Users/ducasse/Workspace/FirstCircle/MyBooks/Bk-Writing/PharoBooks/Booklet-AMiniSchemeInPharo/_result/book.pillar"
ok it works.
I want to update the contents of a target folder only if a file is missing or too old compared to a source.
The idea is that I have a target folder and I need to know if a file located in the source tree should be copied under the target. So I compute the difference from the root of the source to the file and I want to apply this path to the target to check some file properties.
now I do not understand how I can get the following working:
'/Users/ducasse/Workspace/FirstCircle/MyBooks/Bk-Writing/PharoBooks/Booklet-AMiniSchemeInPharo/_result' asFileReference /
('/Users/ducasse/Workspace/FirstCircle/MyBooks/Bk-Writing/PharoBooks/Booklet-AMiniSchemeInPharo/book.pillar' asFileReference path) relativeTo: ('/Users/ducasse/Workspace/FirstCircle/MyBooks/Bk-Writing/PharoBooks/Booklet-AMiniSchemeInPharo' asFileReference path)
