+1. This seems in line with duck typing, an oft touted advantage of dynamic languages like Smalltalk. Although, for new projects you can subclass ConfigurationOf (an actual class). The problem is that when Metacello was brand new, one could not depend on any support classes preloaded into all supported platforms, so it made no assumptions and bootstrapped the entire library if necessary. ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Projects-are-slowly-getting-to-live-and-tp4843277p4843439.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
