cannot update metacello in rc3

Hi,

I took the RC3 dev image and I tried "ConfigurationOfMetacello  
loadLatestVersion", but it fails.

I did not have time to look into this, but this is problematic :).

Cheers,
Doru

Hi,

Sorry, I am a bit sick and did not express myself correctly. I just  
wanted to point out the fact that loadLatestVersion crashes, which is  
a bit strange. And for that, I just described the simple scenario to  
reproduce it.

I did not want to say that it is impossible to load the latest  
Metacello :)

Cheers,
Doru

Doru,

I was just a little bit worried when RC3 was shipped with a #development blessing for 1.0-beta.25, now I have a concrete reason to be worried.

Since 1.0-beta.25 is in #development, the latestVersion of Metacello is 1.0-beta.24.1 and thats the version that gets loaded by #loadLatestVersion...

With that said you _have_ exposed a bug in the #loadLatestVersion method:

  | project |
  project := self project.
  project updateProject.
  project latestversion load

When self project is evaluated the latestVersion is 1.0-beta.24.1. After #updateProject is performed, the latestVersion in ConfigurationOfMetacello is 1.0-beta.25.1, but since we don't refresh the project, we load 1.0-beta.24.1.

If you do "ConfigurationOfMetacello loadLatestVersion", close the walkback(s) and try "ConfigurationOfMetacello loadLatestVersion" again, you'll be updated correctly.

I've checked in a fix for #loadLatestVersion, so if you update the configuration first, then do #loadLatestVersion ... that will work also.

Nice catch and I hope that you get better,

Dale
