Hello,

I took the ContactManager code from your Pharocast at http://www.pharocasts.com/2011/02/pharo-gui-with-polymorph.html and modified it to run with SandstoneDb, using the ideas from

http://www.pharocasts.com/2010/04/sandstonedb-simple-activerecord-style.html

Go ahead and use it for a future Pharocast if you want, or figure out some place to put it.

Because Contact is an SDActiveRecord, the database is constructed from the SandstoneDb records:

Contacts class >>database |db| db := Contact findAll asOrderedCollection. ^ db

and so it is portable, so long as the Contacts records are put in the correctly named Pharo subdirectory.

Opening the ContactListEditor uses an initialization which is supposed to avoid the need to close/reopen Pharo after creating the Contacts class.

Tested on Pharo 1.3 using SandstoneDb-RamonLeon.135.mcz

Thanks a lot Doug. May be the next step would be to create a ConfigurationOfContactManager :) Laurent
