What is the meaning of "illegal" indexedType ?
If I file out the package with this, I can't read it again without replacing the "illegal" by "none" Smalltalk.UnPackage defineClass: #UneClasse superclass: #{Core.Object} indexedType: #illegal private: false instanceVariableNames: '' classInstanceVariableNames: '' imports: '' category: '' _______________________________________________ vwnc mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/vwnc |

It means that somehow the "format" of your class got garbled. The
""format" is a number that encodes a few things, including the "indexedType". If you have an old saved "image" you might get the valid format from it -- but note that it includes other things other than just the indexedType. On perhaps simple solution would be to file-it-out, edit the file (changing #illegal to #none) then filing it back in, then try a file-out again and see if the indexedType is now #none. I ran into this a couple of weeks ago and and never thought of the file-out/file-in idea, so basically managed to get it corrected without that.

Thanks,
In fact, in one of the class method, I set the "format" variable that I wanted to use as a temporary variable, (but, with the use of letting the browser declare automatically the temporary variables, I did not see that the "format" variable was allredy used). I'll remember, allways declare manually temporary variables. 2013/5/9 Dennis Smith <[hidden email]>: > It means that somehow the "format" of your class got garbled.

In reply to this post by Vincent Lesbros-2
I find that syntax highlighting helps me a lot with these types of errors (assuming you're coloring different variable types differently). Even if you happen to override a variable with a temp variable, it will be highlighted differently.
