This is not directly the compiler API, but the API used by tools (e.g. requestors):
There where three methods to test if the requestor operates on whole methods or not.
- isWorkspace - isScripting - isForScripting
This had lead to odd bugs in the past that something that was tested for one requestor failed if used in another context. (For that, we added both #isScripting and #isForScripting for some cases already).
This Issue points to a series of PRs that unifies the situation:
unify #isScripting and #isForScripting #9921 https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/issues/9921
Note: it is not really possible to do this backward compatible in a nice way, but the good news is that this is an API used for tools that should not be used normally outside of the development tools themselves.
There are two PRs to be reviewed: 1) spec https://github.com/pharo-spec/Spec/pull/1289 <https://github.com/pharo-spec/Spec/pull/1289> 2) rest of the system: https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/11416 <https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/11416> Marcus
