The System Package

Dear All,

It seems that the class category 'System' is registered as a package  
and each System-XXX category is both a package and a class category.
As a consequence, System is a package that contains sub-packages, and  
'System-Object Storage' is listed as a package.

I suggest that package name should never contain a  '-'. This require  
quite some discipline to not mess up the thing.

Cheers,
Alexandre

I don't have a package registered called 'System', however there are
some other packaging related problems in the latest Pharo. The classes
BlockClosuresTestCase, ClosureTests, CollectionCombinator, and
DecompilerTests are in no package.

I used the following script, that is part of code critics:

| packages |
packages := MCWorkingCopy allManagers
        collect: [ :each | each packageInfo ].
SystemNavigation default allClassesAndTraits
        do: [ :class |
                (packages count: [ :package | package includesSystemCategory: class
category ]) ~= 1
                        ifTrue: [ Transcript show: class name; show: ' ('; show: class
category; show: ')'; cr ]
                        ifFalse: [ [ :mclass |
                                mclass selectors do: [ :selector |
                                        (packages count: [ :package | package includesMethod: selector
ofClass: mclass ]) ~= 1
                                                ifTrue: [ Transcript show: mclass name; show: '>>'; show:
selector; cr ] ] ] value: class; value: class class ] ]
        displayingProgress: 'Checking Packages'

That does not solve the problem of overlapping packages. See
<http://code.google.com/p/seaside/wiki/PackageNaming> for a large
scale packaging scheme that works.

Ah this is another problem.
I will add an entry when the web site works again.

Strange, I do not know what went wrong. Sorry, we should have checked  
in a fresh image before.

Why using - in package names where it is a special character for MC.  
Why not _ instead?
Just wondering. In Moose, we have Moose-All, Moose-OBBrowser, ..., but  
if one define a package Moose, then we are a kind of screwed.
