description method cached?

Doing a seaside app using magritte, within pier, within the glass appliance

I created a subclass of MATextInputComponent to do some specific validation, call it FooInputComponent,

I changed the old description method to send componentClass: like this

descriptionFoo
    ^MAStringDescription new
    componentClass: FooInputComponent;
    selectorAccessor: #foo;
    label: 'Foo';
    priority: 40;
    yourself

However, the change doesn't seem to apply, the container still gets a MATextInputComponent. I placed a halt in descriptionFoo and it never triggers.

Is this a caching issue that I can reset?

Thanks
Joel

MADescriptionBuilder default flush

does the trick

Yeah, GemStone does not automatically flush the cache when the code changes.

You might want to implement a description builder that does not cache
at all. Caching makes meta-description heavy apps considerably faster,
but it also introduces all kinds of new problems (e.g. when you change
descriptions on the fly).
