Hi Phil,<br>
<br>
For most people, the general advice is to just use a new, updated
image from the repo. In general, I think that keeping own work
separate from the image, and loading it every day, is the best
workflow. It works for me.<br>
<br>
Still, if you want to update your personal image, use the FileList
to take a look at update #4342. See what it does. It does only what
it says: It removes an unused ivar from HandMorph. Just not applying
this update will not have serious consequences. This can be done by
editing the doIt in the changeset. In your image, HandMorph will
still have an unused ivar. It is not a big deal.<br>
<br>
Another alternative, of course, is to debug the problem. Extract the
doit from the changeset. Evaluate it in a Workspace. If it crashes,
repeat with smaller parts. Can you fork a process that just sets a
global variable? If so, can you make it print to Transcript. (This
is an extremely useful technique when messing with Morphic itself,
that's why we have a Transcript that runs independent of Morphic).
Ok. Can you stop the Morphic process and start a new one? Can you
redefine class HandMorph with the same definition as it has today?
And so on. Part of what comes with the personal mastery of your own
image is this. Its problems are also yours!<br>
<br>
If all this fails, you can make your image available to me and I'll
take a look.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
