[Pharo-project] Debugger code edits lost?
Please do not ask me how to reproduce this... :) Actually, I *think* it might be triggered by certain types of syntax errors. Bottom line is that the sometime I do a fair bit of coding in the debugger, only to find that the fruits of my labor went to oblivion and beyond. Gone - no trace of it. It has happened enough that that I believe there are legs to it. Has anyone else seen it?

Yes, many times. In Squeak, so it might well be in those parts still common to both. I happened to be working with partial continuations, so I was actively hacking the stack in which I was debugging, but I've seen it occasionally elsewhere too. You edit the method, accept, restart... and if you open a Browser on that method the method's unchanged and versions shows no trace of your edit. frank
Ok, it's not just me... ________________________________________ From: pharo-project-bounces@lists.gforge.inria.fr [pharo-project-bounces@lists.gforge.inria.fr] on behalf of Frank Shearar [frank.shearar@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2012 12:33 PM To: Pharo-project@lists.gforge.inria.fr Subject: Re: [Pharo-project] Debugger code edits lost?
