Re: [Pharo-users] smalltalk - instantiate an object with parameters..

by Carla F. Griggio

Hmm... there's no "magic" for this. Some options: Instead of instantiating your objects with new, try defining your own class method for getting a new instance. Something like: Dog *class*>>newWithParams: aDictionary ^self new params: aDictionary Dog>>params: aDictionary params := aDictionary Is that something similar to what you were looking for?

"now do the special initialization here..." " for instance set the sound" sound := aString. Dog >> initialize "do the default initialization here" "for instance set a default sound" sound := 'bark'. Hope that helps :)

smalltalk - instantiate an object with parameters..

by sergio_101

yes, i know this sounds simple.. but is it possible to instantiate an object with some parameters? say i have a dictionary: params := Dictionary new. params at: 'sound' put: 'bark' dog := Dog new. ^^ at this point, i would like to just create a dog and send it 'params' all at once.. can i do this? what would the syntax look like? thanks! -- ---- peace, sergio photographer, journalist, visionary http://www.ThoseOptimizeGuys.com http://www.CodingForHire.com http://www.coffee-black.com http://www.painlessfrugality.com http://www.twitter.com/sergio_101 http://www.facebook.com/sergio101

But if memory does not fails me, we have some outstanding issues with osprocess , waiting to be fixed. And answering your question about who solves these errors: anyone who want them fixed and having time to do that. -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko.
