Just a status update: we merged all the code. - we now have for both the class and method view a Critique rule that warns you if you use shadowing vars.
- Pavel fixed all the cases of shadowing class variables. Thanks! - release tests are active, #testNoShadowedVariablesInMethods fo methods and at the class level: testClassesShadow | classes | classes := Smalltalk globals allBehaviors select: [ :class | class definedVariables anySatisfy: [ :var | var isShadowing ] ]. self assert: classes isEmpty description: classes asArray asString status cleanups: - DONE: Shadowed vars (as we saw) => TODO: combine the snippets of writing into one blog post for the devblog - DONE: unused Class Variables - ongoing: unused ivars. Just some left in Spec+Newtools (and one in Kernel tests) - ongoing: all methods should be categorized. - todo: we should have no method that is the same as a method in a superclass > On 2 Apr 2021, at 15:33, Marcus Denker <marcus.den...@inria.fr> wrote: > > > > # Code Critique > > What we need next is a Code Critique rule.
