Locking Configurations

Sean DeNigris

Does #lock work for Configurations the same way I understand it for

baselines? In other words, if one evaluated:

Metacello new

    configuration: 'Sample';

    repository: 'filetree://<fulll-path-to-directory>;

    lock.


Would that load the packages from filetree://<fulll-path-to-directory>, as

well as the config?

Re: Locking Configurations

Dale Henrichs-3

I've spent less time using locks on a ConfigurationOf, but the original lock implementation was intended to allow you to have your own disk-based repository for ConfigurationOfs and BaselineOfs ... If I'm not mistaken, I think you will want to use a mcz repostiroy (MCDirectoryRepository) for your local repo, The filetree repo will only store one version of each mcz file and with a configuration (especially if you don't lock the version) you could very easily be attempting to load different versions of the same package ...

The lock command associates the version/repository with another repository, but does not map package versions[1].

The BaselineOf lock and filetree work well together, because the BaselineOf does not specify package versions ...
