Stef,
Are you concerned that an error is raised, or over exactly which error is
raised? The code
| b c |
b := [ :Object | Object ].
c := b value: Object.
is something that I would rather not have compile. Perhaps it should, just as
one is free to evaluate
Object := 'this is really a bad idea to evaluate'.
but the latter is at least akin to shooting one's foot with a clearly-marked
weapon. Using Object as a temp name is not something that I can ever see as a
good idea, but assignments to globals have uses.
Bill

Hi
I was reading Issue 2436: Compiler outofScopeNotification
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=2436
which I integrated in 12240
and I still do not get why in Squeak or pharo now
| b c |
b := [ :Object | Object ].
c := b value: Object.
raises Unknown variable Object
while
| b c |
b := [ :x | x ].
c := b value: Object.
just returns Object
