Updates: Cc: laurent.laffont Comment #4 on issue 3463 by Torsten....@astares.de: [Failing Test] HelpBrowserTest.testOpen http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3463 OK, to give more context: - the test HelpBrowserTest.testOpen just checks if the help browser can be opened without any problem (by checking if an exception occurs) - unfortunately there is an exception thrown Why: - one of the included help books is Laurents "SmalltalkSyntaxTutorial" - this class is instantiated and during intialization it sends #prepareDebuggerExample - this method compiles some code which ends up in the method CompiledMethod>>putSource:fromParseNode:inFile:withPreamble: - this method signals the exception: InMidstOfFileinNotification signal ifFalse: [file flush]. - this can be reproduced with the following code: [Object compile: 'foo ^3+4' classified: 'test'] on: Exception do: [:ex | ex inspect] This also gives the InMidstOfFileinNotification Dont know why this InMidstOfFileinNotification Possible Solutions: - handle the notification in #prepareDebuggerExample (while compiling the code) - maybe we should also change #testOpen to just check for errors instead of exception while opening: self shouldnt: block raise: Error (this would avoid notifications which are also exceptions)
