Distributing your parts

Now that you've built some nice parts, you need to know how to share them with others. This chapter explains how to do that. You will learn how to write special methods that run when your parts are loaded or removed from a VisualAge image, how to export your code, and how to install your code in a customer's image.

This chapter does not include information on packaging stand-alone applications. That information is available in Packaging your VisualAge application and the IBM Smalltalk User's Guide.

To understand the material in this chapter, you should know how to use VisualAge Professional, including versioning, importing, and exporting applications. If you aren't comfortable with using these functions, you can review them in the IBM Smalltalk User's Guide.
