ChangeLog =========
6 March 2019: -------------
* I spent last two days trying approaches to make the introduction of +Application+ concept less intrusive.
Thing is, since several applications can be alive at the same time (in general at least two: Pharo and the application the user is developing, but there can be more), when you create a window, is mandatory to know the application it belongs to.
And this is a problem.
Why? Well, because there are two ways to do it:
It can be:
---- MyWindowClass newApplication: myApplication. ----
or:
---- myApplication new: MyWindowClass. ----
And well... both approaches require that you are in possesion of an application when you create a window.
Really random thought... If somehow a window is created without it knowing the application, could it create a new application for it - it occurs to me it might be called an "anonymous application" but I've no idea if that makes sense within the framework, and too many random applications might be unmanageable. cheers -ben P.S. Thanks for these ChangeLogs. Great to see whats in the pipeline.
