Disabling the Debugger for Distribution

Hi All,

Is there a way to disable the debugger for a distribution version of a Squeak app.?

Something like hitting the abandon button before the debugger appears.

Thanks in advance.

Changing ToolSet default should do the trick. You can install a ToolSet
that just displays a polite information instead of opening a debugger.

Thank you.

I'll try subclassing the standard one.

Seems like some errors keep looping if they somehow remain unhandled... like 'does not understand'. DivideByZero doesn't have the problem.

However, I have enough info to proceed for now.

Thank you again.

Re: Disabling the Debugger for Distribution

Thanks again for the pointer to ToolSet. I use my own new subclass tool set to override common errors like ZeroDivide.

However, just returning w/o handling an error like #doesNotUnderstand: seems to leave the process in a loop trying to handle the unhandled error, freezing the UI (until interrupted).

For now, I've changed Object>>doesNotUnderstand: to test if my toolset is the default and just return, but this has the effect of a continue rather than an abandon.

Cheers,
Darius
