I lost all my work on RPackage of yesterday - I cannot find the changes and the packages I saved are corrupted
and now I would like to restart to load from a given version but the ConfigurationOfRPackage ConfigurationOfRPackage-StephaneDucasse.10 version10: spec <version: '1.0' imports: #('1.0-baseline' )> spec for: #'common' do: [ spec blessing: #'release'. spec description: 'New version'. spec author: 'AlexandreBergel'. spec timestamp: '2/18/2011 12:53'. spec package: 'SystemAnnouncements' with: 'SystemAnnouncements-cyrilledelaunay.36'; package: 'RPackage-Core' with: 'RPackage-Core-AlexandreBergel.66'; package: 'RPackage-Tests' with: 'RPackage-Tests-cyrilledelaunay.26'; package: 'RPackage-UI' with: 'RPackage-UI-FernandoOlivero.16'; package: 'RPackage-SystemIntegration' with: 'RPackage-SystemIntegration-cyrilledelaunay.50'. ]. now when I do ConfigurationOfRPackage project load: #'1.0' is telling to me that there is no symbolic version and I do not get it. I'm lost and really frustrated. Stef _______________________________________________ Moose-dev mailing list [hidden email] https://www.iam.unibe.ch/mailman/listinfo/moose-dev |

Do: ConfigurationOfRPackage project load: '1.0' instead. Chees

I did not know about this convention. I find this design to be unnecessarily confusing.
Why is this needed? Why not use strings / symbols interchangeable?

I mentioned something similar to this a few months ago. The reason is primarily for making legacy configuration work.

I still do not understand why symbolic versions cannot be treated like normal versions (I argued for this before :)). Their name should be unique within the overall versions anyway, so I do not see where the compatibility would break.

Could you point me to the original mail where you argued for this?
From this thread I cannot tell (I know, I guess I am just dense:) what the problem is nor what the proposed solution would be, so I cannot comment without some more context... It's quite possible that I missed the point the last time around, so you'll have to start at the beginning of this conversation to bring me into the loop:) Dale On 04/14/2011 01:34 PM, Tudor Girba wrote: > I still do not understand why symbolic versions cannot be treated > like normal versions (I argued for this before :)).

FWIW, I intended for symbolic versions to be in a separate namespace, so that #stable, #bleedingEdge, #development and any other symbolic versions wouldn't inadvertently collide with a literal version of the same name. Symbolic versions are defined differently and mean something different from literal versions, so I wanted a user to be able to look at a load expression and know that if she saw something that looked like this: ConfigurationOfRPackage project load: #'1.0' That she would not be surprised when the `ConfigurationOfRPackage project currentVersion` answered '1.0-beta.28.3' and not #'1.0'. So when someone gets the error 'Symbolic version not found' when they try to run `ConfigurationOfRPackage project load: #'1.0'`, I say that it is doing exactly what it should be doing ... With that said, I don't deny that it is confusing, but really not any more confustion than getting the error 'Version not found' when trying to run the following expression `ConfigurationOfRPackage project load: '1,0'`...There's a typo in the expression and it would be nice if the error said, "you've put a #, instead of $. in the version name"... Finally, I think that the distinction between symbolic versions and literal versions will be much more obvious in the MetacelloBrowser and typing errors won't be the primary issue...
