PharoJS - converting to Javascript error

Hello. I am trying to convert my Pharo (4.0) classes to Javascript.

I wrote a Pharo PBE-LightsOut application as book PBE.
Initially converted LOCell and LoGame classes.
Loaded these classes in a browser from an index.html and accused lack of SimpleSwitchMorph, SimpleButtonMorph and BorderedMorph.

Command to convert:
JbSmalltalkToJavaScriptExporter exportClasses: {BorderedMorph } packages: #() inNewFileNamed: 'BorderedMorph.js'

Converting BorderedMorph this error occurs:
MessageNotUndestood: WorldMorph >> javaScriptName

The other classes were converted to JavaScript without problems.

Appreciate any help.

thank you

Ok. This is a bug I wasn't aware of. Thanks for reporting it.
I'll have a look.

But, even if we fix it, don't expect morphs to work on JS.
PharoJS doesn't support graphic primitives... at least not in the near future :-)

PharoJS allows connecting to third-party JS code and of course all HTML5 DOM objects and handle them from pharo.
I'd rather bet on a solution that follows this route. But, it's way too early to decide anything.
We'll see once we'll be there.
