You are probably expecting the #load message to be sent to the result of #version:, but what actually happens is #load is sent to the string '1.1.1' and strings do not understand #load.

A unary message (#load) is evaluated before a binary message (+) is evaluated before keyword message (#version:) .

Hi,

I'm trying to set up Pharo Non Core Packages from the online instructions I found while reading this: http://book.pharo-project.org/**book/PharoTools/Pharo-Non-** Core-Packages/?_s=EsEMhY54b-**mcYFMW&_k=3zFruWTkOJUr_OF8&_n&**50<http://book.pharo-project.org/book/PharoTools/Pharo-Non-Core-Packages/?_s=Es...>

Unfortunately I get an error, as the attached image shows:

[image: Inline image 1]

What I have done, is selected all of the code and "done it", I've also tried selecting only the Gopher part and do that first, then do the second part, but it's at the second part that it crashes.

Any tips?

Many thanks,

Victor Stan

I guess this is a dead end for this package?

Hi, as I already said: This is code for a very old version of Pharo that will just *not* work in a current version. "ConfigurationOfPharoNonCore" is not maintained for quite a while, it's all old versions that are loaded. Marcus

Wanted to play around with audio api. Is there a way to get a description of what each package does in the configuration browser? I just see the name, which I have to Google to figure out what it does. Victor Stan On Apr 5, 2013 1:15 AM, "Marcus Denker" <marcus.denker@inria.fr> wrote:

Why do you want to load it?

Maybe I missed it but perhaps a suggestion might be to have the writer or editor mark the version they used when writing the notes, just for reference. If I figure out how to run it I can leave a comment. Victor Stan On Apr 2, 2013 10:04 AM, "Marcus Denker" <marcus.denker@inria.fr> wrote:

Hello,

This is a package for some very old version of Pharo, it makes no sense in current versions as the code it loads does not work in current versions of Pharo.

Someone should update the editable book.
