[squeak-dev] Problems with #caseError

Hi Dave,


I am sorry for the confusion. It took me some time to finally find the right thread, but apparently, Nicolas already has merged this changeset last May via Compiler-nice.430. (Thank you, Nicolas!) Because the thread when I mentioned it here ended with Marcel's advice to merge the changeset later, I had assumed that it would still be to do.

I could now, once again, point to the advantages of a GitHub-like issue and PR tracker where you could close and auto-reference threads from each other, but I guess I have already done this often enough. :-) Maybe it would be a good idea to (manually) send a short confirmation message directly to the thread where a changeset has been posted when someone finds the time to merge it. For inbox versions, this process is easier because they are arranged in Monticello with a clear identifier ...


Again, sorry for wasting your time! Nevertheless, your thoughts on #caseError: (with argument) and my #allLiterals observation are highly welcome. :-)

I have no clue why the Nabble link does not point to the exact conversation. Usually, it does as far as I know. I also think it would be an improvement if replies that are sent via Nabble would have attached the entire conversation. Are we in control of the Nabble sources to make such a change?


Best,

Christoph

Perhaps you can update the changes and maybe submit back to the inbox?
Looking at the change set, I see that your change to Object is already
in the image, and there have been more recent changes to MessageNode
that presumably would require merging. I expect that the remaining change
would be a small update to the Compiler package.

I should note that it took me quite some time to figure out the context
of this message. I think it is because of this:

Apparently you send this as a reply from the forum, but the resulting
email here on the list provided no context for the thread you were
discussing. I was unable to find any prior emails with this subject
in the recent archives. I finally figured it out when I noticed the
"Sent from:" line at the bottom of your message.

Dave
