Bug in StsDolphinPackageProxy and workaround

[Jacob Wagner]

Hello, Dolphin Smalltalkers! :) Not much activity on the newsgroup lately, but still loving this wonderful product. Every time I use pharo for a while and switch back to Dolphin I am pleasantly surprised by the quality of dolphin.

I ran into an error when trying to import a package into STS. The package was Robert Jarvis's ExternalProcess.

You can repeat this problem by simply trying to import to STS the External Process package by Robert Jarvis in latest Dolphin Beta (6.1Beta2, right?).

The workaround is surprisingly easy. Here is the method header for the class:

executeCommand:aStringCommand inDirectory:aDirectoryString waitForSeconds:anIntegerSeconds stdin: stdinStream stdout: stdoutBlock stderr: stderrBlock

The solution is simply to add a space between the : and arguments:

executeCommand: aStringCommand inDirectory: aDirectoryString waitForSeconds: anIntegerSeconds stdin: stdinStream stdout: stdoutBlock stderr: stderrBlock

Note that the first version compiles and loads fine into Dolphin, just not STS.

Apologies if this is already a known bug.
