Re: [Pharo-users] canonical way to convert Symbol into Class (retrieve class by its name)

Re: [Pharo-users] Object configuration idioms

Hi Peter, I would just fill in the configuration and have it give me the correct client which uses the configuration instance. = | client | client := TwitterConfiguration new username: 'stuff'; password: 'password1'; port: '1234'; useHttps; client.
