Categorise method defaults?
When using Pharo 4.0 - if I create a new class (subclass of Object) and then create a new class method for constructing that instance - when I try to classify the method why is the list of possibilities empty? In old versions of squeak I recall there was a list of possibilities already in the image to choose from? I was expecting âinstance creationâ to be there already for me? Am i missing something? Tim

Nope. You're not missing anything. And it's been the same in Pharo 3 and 2 (AFAIR). This "categorization" issue was discussed before, with pointers to "category suggestion algorithms", but nothing has happened. Regards! Esteban A. Maringolo
It is just a glitch. I worked on a better categoriser and it requires one or two days of polishing to integrate it. If you want to help just ask. Stef On 9/8/14 16:23, Tim Mackinnon wrote:

I am interested in that categorizer, especially to tweak it to my own patterns of use. Where is it? Will it work in 3.0? (As 3.0 is the release we can use for production code). Phil â
