Re: [Pharo-dev] getting the history of a method?

Alex from memory an activeRing definition is always returning the current method definition. aspassive I guess is creating one that represents a method at a certain point. and yes we should continue to improving ring.

Hi!

I have the following:

Object subclass: #A. A compile: 'foo ^ 5'. A compile: 'foo ^ 10'.

(A >> #foo) asHistoricalRingDefinition

But I have no idea how I can get the two time stamps of A>>foo and the two source code?

did you check the api?

I cannot figure out what is the difference between asPassiveRingDefinition, asActiveRingDefinition, asFullRingDefinition… These methods all return a RGMethodDefinition.

Yes what is different is the way they access and return their source.

Cheers, Alexandre
