Hi Eliot.

In ReleaseBuilder-mt.201, I added #saveAsNewClean and #saveClean. Well, if you miss an MC snapshot, how could you revert all your changes in that package?

Best,

Hi All,

    when I try and drive ReleaseBuilder programmatically I get a number of errors such as this:

Error: Missing snapshot: Traits-pre.307

It would be nice either to ignore such errors or to have an entry-point in ReleaseBuilder that just does the preference setting, recompileAll, condenseChanges and save.


BTW, ReleaseBuilder's recompileAll appears not to be working perfectly.  With the new bytecode set installed we still expect to see quick methods compiled using the default bytecode set (something I have to fix but isn't high priority).  But even ignoring quick methods there are lots of methods that remain in the old bytecode set:

CompiledMethod allInstances size 67104
(CompiledMethod allInstances select: [:m| m signFlag]) size 61154
(CompiledMethod allInstances reject: [:m| m signFlag or: [m isQuick]]) size 1253

But this could b e operator error.  I found the above while using a modified script that avoided checkForDirtyPackages.
_,,,^..^,,,_

best, Eliot
