Hi Folks. Just a little tip. I guess Dale will ANN in next Metacello version, but for those who doesn't want to wait :) Read the above mail !!! Now there is support to unload of Metacello itself. I can create a ConfigurationOfMyApplication that I use to load all my necessary stuff in a code (runtime) image, and then Metacello disappear. I use metacello to create the image, but then I unload it. Like a builder: it helps to build and then we work is finished we goes out not occupy space in your just new little house :) Cheers Mariano On Wed, Jan 27, 2010 at 9:09 PM, Dale Henrichs <dale.henrichs@gemstone.com>wrote:

I've just committed a new version of ConfigurationOfMetacello (ConfigurationOfMetacello-DaleHenrichs.149) with the class-side method #unloadMetacello implemented using the aforementioned Gofer script.

The template config has the class-side method #unloadMetacello (available when 1.0-beta.23 is released) implemented as follows:

unloadMetacello Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfMetacello ifPresent: [:cls | cls unloadMetacello ]

This method can be added to existing configs and then used in the load method or build scripts as desired.
