Hi Christoph,

no, the return value of "someClass category" should never be 'nil'.

Uniclasses should be stored in #UserObjects.

Please don't. Instead, make sure that after 
"ReleaseBuilder prepareSourceCode; clearCaches"
all those strange classes are either gone or fixed.

Best,
Marcel

Hi all,

is it a valid state for a class's category to be nil? I recently got an error in Class >> #isDeprecated because [self category] was nil. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce it, but I guess it happened in the context of uniclasses.

Should we make the following change?



Best,
Christoph
