Hi:
I got here a Monticello package that does not properly load using
the Metacello configuration. The image freezes and cmd+. does not
pop up a debugger anymore.
Is there a way to force Monticello/Metacello to fall back on the
included source instead of using the binary snapshot? (I guess
that is going wrong for some reason).
Not very elegant, but you can delete the .bin from the .mcz file, and it
should fall back to importing from sources.
The binary snapshot is only for the definitions. The source is always
get from the .sources.
I'm not sure what you mean, but the source compiled when you install an
MCDefinition, is taken from the .bin if that was the source of it. (its
source instvar is a string, not a pointer to source location in .sources
file).
Which is why it's safe to do non-ascii code in mcz as long as you can
read from the .bin (As WideStrings are decoded properly), otherwise the
.sources will be read as latin1, though they weren't written as such if
any of the methods contained non-latin1, iirc.
Cheers,
