[Seaside] A little HowTo

[Torsten Bergmann]

The typical notation for class methods in tools/text/newsgroups is using 
"class" to distinguish it from an instance method. So it would be
better to write:

WhateverRoot class>>canBeRoot
	^true

So Foo class>>bar means the class side method and Foo>>bar the
instance method. Thats also how it is displayed in Senders/implementors
reference tools (not in Squeak, but in Pharo similar to other Smalltalks).


Also note that this tutorial only works in Seaside 2.8. I would make
that clear when people read it later and try it out.

In the newer Seaside 2.9 (which is available as alpha version on http://builder.seaside.st) the #registerAsApplication: is deprecated.

There you would write:
 
  MyRootComponent(class)>>initialize
	WAAdmin register: self asApplicationAt: 'foo'


Its also common practice not to call "super initialize" in class
side #initialize methods.

But thanks for your effort. I'm sure it will help others getting
into Seaside.

Bye
Torsten
