Adding a dependency to a version

Hi!

The toolbox is indeed cool. It would be cool to have a addDependency: packageNames to: aVersionName
Is this feasable?

By the way, who is DataCurator ? :-) E.g., Metacello-ToolBox-DataCurator.106

Cheers,
Alexandre

Alexandre,

I've added a feature request ...

DataCurator is the GemStone data base user and he snuck into some of my commits because it is used by default when an author name is not supplied ... GemTools always picks up the author from the pharo image, but tODE runs as a pure serer app and the author info wasn't be supplied...

It would be really cool to have it

Alexandre,

I suppose this is a statement about the MetacelloToolBox API, but there is already an API for adding dependencies (along with othor things:):

  MetacelloTooBox class>>modifyVersion:section:for:repository:requiredProjects:packages:dependencies:includes:files:repositories:preLoadDoIts:postLoadDoIts:supplyingAnswers:groups:

MetacelloTooBoxAPITestCase>>testComplexModifyBaseline is an example of adding a new package and the dependency for that package ....

Since there are a lot of things that can be modified in a version I'm not sure that it is worth adding a collection of add* methods, but if that would simplify the things for you (and other tool builders), then I will certainly add the extra methods ...

Let me know what you think,

Dale

Dale,

First of all I would like to thank you for considering our request. Your patience and continuous effort on Metacello is extremely valuable, as well as being an amazing example for our students.

Juan Pablo and I will have a look at this. February is a kind of holiday period in Chile. We will have a look at it asap.

Cheers,
Alexandre

Alexandre,

Thanks:)

I will probably release 1.0-beta.32 before too soon, keep I'll keep the issue open and if you find you still need additions to the api I can still drop another release...

Dale
