It does not work on Pharo3.0. But it used to work! At least it works on the Squeak5.0: from the method pane, you can evaluate both instance and method variables, usefull when you need to make some code test with both instance and method variable.
So it looks like a regression appearing at least with pharo 3.0, but may be before :( Hilaire Le 06/04/2016 09:13, Nicolai Hess a écrit : > I now see the problem. > For the context inspector, the compiler can generate code for evaluating > the "printit on a variable" > but for variables that are in fact instance variables, it does not > generate an error because > it resolves the variable name and index from the (object) instance > scope.
