[vwnc] Question regarding publishing issue..

Hi all.. As I mentioned in my last email, I'm working on a few  
Magritte related changes and have a newer version of Magritte loaded  
and running in VW (Magritte-All-lr.270) but when I try to publish it  
to my local store I get the following message from VW which i've never  
seen before:

"One or more of the components in Magritte overrides another.
  Publishing will cause one to replace the other when loading.

   It is recommended that you resolve these redundancies before
  publishing..

    Continue?"

I believe I'm understanding what it's complaining about but do not  
understand how to remedy this once I select "View overrides"..

It comes up with a list of 20-30 items but I'm clueless on how to  
proceed..  From what I can tell, it's complaining because I've got
Magritte-overrides that live in another package (in this case  
MagritteForVisualWorks).  Anyway, one of the complaints is for :

Magritte.MAValidationError class>>description:signal:

Interestingly enough I only find one definition for that method and it  
lives in the other package (MagritteForVisualWorks)..  I don't see that
as a problem since the MagritteForVisualWorks package is to be loaded  
AFTER the main Magritte package.. Is this simply a dependency issue?

Anyway, advice on how to proceed would be much appreciated!

Rick,

If I am not mistaken, his message appears when you have a method in one
package and an override for the method in a second package, and publish a
bundle containing both (I haven't done this myself, so I am guessing here).
The override list will show you the method which is currently on top of the
"override stack". To see the overridden methods, you have to select the
method in the refactoring browser and select the tab "Overridden" - browsing
for implementors does not show the overridden methods. The "Overridden" tab
will show you a list of the overridden methods and the packages defining
them. The list has a context menu where you can choose to restore or dismiss
an overridden method to resolve the conflict.

HTH,
Joachim

This is new since 7.6, earlier versions would have refused to publish
your bundle.

This is supposed to fix bundles so now we can publish (ThirdPartyPackage
+ MyPatchesToThatPackage + MyApplication) in a single version of a bundle.

I think the dialog is awkward though, perhaps we need a marker on the
bundle saying that overrides by [MyPatchesToThatPackage] are allowed but
that others are suspect.
Currently we have to answer the dialog every time we publish such a
bundle -- we are training ourselves to become blind to it ;-)
