Hi Marcel,

what do you think about making ReleaseBuilder's preference settings more modular? Instead of having the settings in setPreferences, each class therein could implement setPreferencesForRelease. Pros are
- classes can be updated without having to change ReleaseBuilder, which is good when preferences are added or removed
- setters then aren't needed (not particularly compelling)
Cons are
- one has the browse several methods to see all the preferences

Hi Marcel,

Hi Eliot,

the job of a release manager is challenging. :-) For this, having one place to orchestrate all the defaults is very helpful. One can also work around special cases in the last minute. Happened before, will happen again. ;-)

We do need preference setters. They are good for handling and documenting side-effects. They are also good for all sorts of install scripts like in our change sets. Take a look at:

SystemWindow class >> #gradientWindow:

SystemWindow class >> #windowTitleActiveOnFirstClick:

SystemWindow class >> #moveMenuButtonRight:

I do not argue that these cases represent the best way to implement such preferences. However, they are valuable "tools" in their own right. :-)

If you prefer having settings in one place, and it seems for good reason, then I'm happy.

 

Best,

Marcel
