[7.8] Packaging with the SettingsDomain class

I created a subclass of SettingsDomain for my application. This works
great in the development environment, but I'm having a very hard time
including this functionality when I try to package a runtime
application. Has anyone else tried this? Any suggestions?

This functionality is described in the docs like it is meant for
general application use, but it is in the Tools-IDE bundle. Why is
this?

Thanks,

Take a look at RuntimePackager.RuntimeBuilderItems>>defaultPackageNamesDeleted.

It seems like this bundle is removed by default.

I would consider not using SettingsDomain, or any other class in
Tools-IDE bundle, in runtime code.

Kind regards,

I just don't rip that package (Tools-IDE) out when I package. If you use RTP, tell it not to take it out. If you don't use RTP, that's easier to accomplish.

I think RTP tries to strip too much. In the present day environment
with most computers have at least 4GB memory, the demand to make
application foot-prints as small as possible does not exist. James put
out a nice Smalltalk Daily of how to make a run-time package by
scripting.

Dear Carl,
in 7.10, I'm fixing a bug that allows the RTP sometimes to strip the
superclass of a class it's been ordered to keep. Your example - a
subclass you've created whose superclass is in a package stripped by
default - is IIRC just such a case. To avoid, as James suggests,
override the default strip-outs to leave in either all Tools-IDE if your
space requirements and etc. are happy with it or else just the bundle
with the superclass and anything it needs.

Yours faithfully
Niall Ross
