Running without sources/changes ?
Hi, Does anyone know if we can still run Pharo (4) without sources and without changes ? Years ago there used to be an option to 'abandon changes' and/or 'abandon sources', IIRC. Can we still do that ? I can't find this option in System Settings. I want to run just a reduced image on a server. Sven
I tried that recently in a Pharo 1.3 image. âabandon sourcesâ et al donât work. What does work however is Smalltalk closeSourceFiles; openSourceFiles. I use it to speed up some stuff we do (prevents a lot of IO operations). I havenât tried it in newer versions though. Cheers, Max

No, in Pharo4 it does not work⦠we should have a look again, if we have the time. What is clear is that we really need to find a better solution to .changes/.sources⦠Marcus

It would be good to have this functionality back, but it is not a high priority. But in 4.0 even #cleanupForProduction did not work ... It did not make that much size difference anyway, so again, no high priority. Sven

everything not tested does not work by definition. I am therefore skeptical every time we want to deploy differently than we use the system every day⦠- The artefact on the CI server has to be the artefact of release - the artefact we use for development has to be the artefact of deployment. Marcus
