Hi Eliot,


Can you give an exact step-by-step example to reproduce?

It appears that the context is reset before compiling the method, so when you have a syntax error, the execution will have been reset. However, I could not find a scenario in which the syntax error is displayed in the original text ...

Best,
Christoph

Betreff: [squeak-dev] tedious programming-in-the-debugger error needs fixing

Hi All,

    if in a block in the debugger and one redefines the method, the debugger says "I will need to go back to the method that defined this block" or some such. If there is a syntax error in the new code one is trying to compile then the original method is displayed, the syntax error is displayed in that original text, and one's edited text is lost.

best, Eliot
