stuck in the tutorial..

i am stuck on the tutorial..

i am here:

http://www.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/swa/seaside/tutorial?_k=JOUlYeKE&_s=HnxMstOOzMFNlEFy

let me know if that takes you back to the front of the tutorial.. i am on the components page...

this section:

 Of course, you want to see some results now, therefore we refactor StRootComponent>>#initialize to call self initializeMenuComponent instead of simply initializing themenuComponent instance variable.


i just can't figure out where to put this line:

self initializeMenuComponent

it seems like it should be in:

StMenuComponent>>#initialize, because that's where initializeMenuComponent is..

but that doesn't work..

if i put it in StRootComponent>>#initialize like so:

initialize
       super initialize.
       self
               menuComponent: StMenuComponent new;
               listComponent: StListComponent new.
       self initializeMenuComponent.


i  get this:

MessageNotUnderstood: StRootComponent>>initializeMenuComponent

which totally makes sense..

anyone have any ideas?

thanks!

initializeMenuComponent is a seperate method you need to create that will "initialize" the menu component.  I think you are just adding the line at the bottom of you code, and the method doesn't exist.  At least, thats what the error says.  hope that helps :)

my bad..

DANGIT..

rather than reading the text under the method that clearly states where it goes.. but i instead put the method where i THOUGHT it should go...

all is well now..

thanks!
