parse "into collections automatically". You didn't inspectIt for
verifying
your (false) claim, didn't you.
No I didn't! The { } just looked so wrong and like C! I'm used to
#()
which of course doesn't work.
Also, have a look at the implementors of
#caseOf: and #caseOf:otherwise:, they are heavy users of literal
blocks in
Collections ...
I will!
argh! Ugly!
Yes. And, into the other direction, even in good core methods one
often
finds things like
^ dict at: aKey ifAbsent: [nil]
this is much better.
I would like to see caseOf:...removed from the system
I started to write this too but thought about some of the errors
that people
receive about wrong form of block and didn't want to scare people.
