[Seaside] WATask, anyone?

[Nick Ager]

Hi Sebastian,

I occasionally use WATask if I think it helps express my intent.
For example from Pier Admin

PRAdminSetupCreateKernelFromTemplate>>go
> | kernelNamedispatcherNamePair |
>
> kernelNamedispatcherNamePair := self
> selectAndCreateFromTemplateDistribution.
> self queryAdminUICreationFor: kernelNamedispatcherNamePair kernelName at:
> kernelNamedispatcherNamePair dispatcherName


and

PRAdminSetupRecreateExportedKernel>>go
> | kernelCreator |
>
>  [ kernelCreator isNil ] whileTrue: [
> kernelCreator := self selectExportedKernelComponent.
> (self ifPresentConfirmRemovalOfApplicationAt: kernelCreator
> dispatcherPathName) ifFalse: [ kernelCreator := nil ] ].
>
> self createExportedKernel: kernelCreator.
> self queryAdminUICreationFor: kernelCreator kernelName at: kernelCreator
> dispatcherPathName


I'll let others judge if I've succeeded in clearly expressing my intent.

Nick
