Camille/o were trying to fix a bug in the CriticsRules and found a strange
limitation of the ParseTreeRewriter
Given: Result:
------ -------
| a b | | a b |
self halt.
self bar. self bar.
However this is not possible to specify directly:
RBParseTreeRewriter new
replace: '`@object halt' with: ''.
As the parsed ' ' string will result in a SequenceNode, thus forcing
the original message node ('self halt') to be a sequence node.
So instead of looking for 'self halt' it will look for
||
self halt.
and thus it tries to explicitly match the temporary.
The result is, that we cannot remove 'self halt' with a rewrite rule
if the method/block contains temporaries :/.
Has anybody encountered this, or knows how to directly replace a message
node with an "empty node"?
best c&c
