about ConfigurationOfXXX

Hi, i wanted to know if there's documentation on the ConfigurationOfXXX classes.

Because it seems to me that now we just cut and paste from previous ones. Maybe a super class ConfigurationOfPackages could be created?

Could someone please ilustrate the usage and examples , and maybe put it on the Pharo Web Page. Specially because it seems to be the standard way of loading monticello projects now.

Thanks!
Fernando

Hi Fernando. This is part of the Metacello project. You can read the tutorial here: http://code.google.com/p/metacello/wiki/Tutorial
I recommend you the image based one.

There is also a group for Metacello: http://groups.google.com/group/metacello

Yes, you have to copy from the class MetacelloConfigTemplate

Yes, we discussed about having a superclass. The problem is where is that class? It should be in the "core" of Pharo, Squeak, Gemstone. See this thread:

http://groups.google.com/group/metacello/browse_thread/thread/c056f4e44e4523f0/

Not yet. We are in a "testing moment". If we completely decide to go with Metacello maybe we can add something in Pharo Website. Maybe others think we should add something now....I don't know

Thanks!
Fernando

Btw, I do a class copy of MetacelloConfigTemplate rather than copy and paste methods:)

Thanks for the info Mariano and Dale, I understand more now after reading what Metacello is.

I think this info should be posted on the squeaksource of Metacello Configurations web page.

Thanks,
Fernando

Thanks for the info! I understand much better Metacello now.

I think it would be helpful if this info were posted on the Metacello Repository Squeak Source page. So people dont get lost on the first approach to ConfigurationOf... and Metacello ( ..and Gofer).

Why don't make the bootstrap process to self compile the required class
in the hosting environments.
This way the hosting environment musn't have anything about Metacello
but it can compile/install the required classes as the first steps of
the bootstrap process.

Or maybe I'm talking nuts :)
