Hi,
i would like a way to define metalinks at debug time, by "visually" selecting ast nodes in the debugger. For example i would like to see a method that i am debugging and by a clic on the source code it would select the associated ast node and allow me to put a metalink right there.
- does that exist ?
This might get you close... Debug into... 1 printString In Variables tab, select "thisContext" In Raw tab, select method In AST tab, select your node.
From there on, I don't know. Please report back if you get something to work.
- if not, does a tool to display or to navigate through metalinks already exists ?
I don't think so. Pharo 6 has only the first step of having the basic underlying system implemented. cheers -ben
- if not any, can somebody point me to documentation and/or ressources to extend the debugger so i can try to build it ? (i've already seen the spec book to build ui but i want to see what is possible with the debugger)
