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
