hello list,
if we do the following in a workspace:
[| a |
a := 1.
Compiler new evaluate: '1+a' in: thisContext to: nil
] value
.. it returns 2
now if we open a Transcript and do this:
[| a |
a := 1.
Transcript show:
(Compiler new evaluate: '1+a' in: thisContext to: nil)
] fork
.. we get an 'out of scope' notification
this is very surprising to me, so I tried my best to understand what is
happening and now I wonder:
1) is it an undesirable limitation of the Parser, or am I missing
something ?
2) if we change MessageAsTempNode>>scope so that it returns 0 or 1, the
second example works fine. what would be the other (undesirable) effects
for such a change?
3) is this the same issue as
http://www.nabble.com/-GRR--OutOfScopeNotification-catching-caught-me-t1414869.html(discussed here a few months ago) ?
4) should we do something about it ?
thanks,
Stef
