Object>>mustBeBoolean

Hello,

  Why does Object>>mustBeBoolean use a notification, which is
  resumable, instead of an error, which would be non resumable?

Probably to support the "proceed for truth" dialog. But I've seen it cause some interesting problems.

Andres,

Please update to VisualWorks 7.4.1. Since that version MustBeBoolean is a
subclass of Error.
