Thanks Ben. I have a question. Would it make sense to have a setting to reset on each session the registry? What you should know is that Guille is actively improving (refactoring, rethinking the API of iceberg) to produce a better UI then. We are really concerned how we can get the same confort than we got before. We do not send all the exchanges we have on the topics Stef On Thu, Dec 7, 2017 at 5:52 PM, Ben Coman <btc@openinworld.com> wrote:

Hi,
noob question: i installed bloc and tried to run examples.
It worked well on Fedora 27 but not on latest Debian 64 bits because the path of libcairo.so.2 was wrong.
So i fixed it in the code, but when trying the bloc examples again the lib path is still wrong (in the debugger).
Is there a way to reload the cairo lib or to reset it, so that the path would be right and it would find the lib ?
I've also been frustrated by this, particularly as a supa-fresh-FFI-noob before I understood what was happening. I've found it a minor annoyance but sufficient to to close and reopen an image to reset things, but being able to do it live in-Image is really nice.

you need to reset FFI:
FFIMethodRegistry resetAll.
That is really nice to know, but by the time I need it I will probably have forgotten it, and closing/reopening the Image will be faster than searching forum.world.st or asking again the mail list. Could we possibly have World > Tools > Reset FFI ?

Added https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/20835/Add-World-Tools-Reset-FFI I should have a go at doing it, but I'm not sure which class is preferred to hang the menu pragma on, and also I'm still lagging for contributing to Pharo 7 (not really any technical issue now, but lack of time to practice the workflow)
