Re: [Pharo-project] Fwd: [squeak-dev] The Trunk: Traits-nice.248.mcz

Actually, this is not related to Traits... For historical reasons the
requires/provided algorithm by Nathanael (and Andrew Black and Daniel
Vainsencher?) was added together with Traits to 3.9 and hence it ended
up in the category 'Traits-Requires' and in the Traits package.
I think we should fix this and move FixedIdentitySet into the
collection hierarchy and the classes RequiredSelectors etal. to their
own package. Are there any tools that use this data? Do we want to
keep this in the image at all?

Here even flatter I saw people pulling kids on slegde the 10 cm of snow we got :)
I forgot you were at Nantes. I pass from time to time there. We should go and drink

Re: [Pharo-project] What are MethodDictionary faults?

It sends the message {\em induceMDFault} to all classes except classes like Array Object Class Message MethodDictionary.

Yes.
So may be you should create an ImageSegment package and put the faultDescription as class extensions to this package.
Did you try to see what are the inactive classes you get after a full coding sesssion with loading and saving code?

Sorry I am lazy, I will copy paste a piece of a .tex
\section{Discovering used and unused classes}
There is some work that it is quite related to ImageSegment and it is used
to discover used and unused classes.
There is a possibility to force a MethodDictionary fault with the message
{\em ClassDescription>>induceMDFault}. This method copies the {\em
methodDict} in the {\em organization} slot. Actually, it creates an Array
with the {\em methodDict} and the {\em organization} and set it in the {\em
organization} slot. Finally, it sets a {\em nil} to the {\em methodDict}
instance variable. After this is done, when that class is used and the {\em
methodDict} is asked\,---\,it is very important to acces the {\em
methodDict} using the getter\,---\, it checks whether it is nil or not. If
it is nil, it will search for that {\em methodDict} in the Array of the {\em
organizaction} and it will then copy it to the {\em methodDict} instance
variable.
Taking that explanation in mind, we can follow this three steps:
\begin{enumerate}
\item Send the message {\em ImageSegment>>discoverActiveClasses} which
forces a MethodDictionary fault in all classes. Yes! It sends the message
{\em induceMDFault} to all classes except classes like Array Object Class
Message MethodDictionary. After this, all classes but those ones, will have
the {\em methodDict} with {\em nil}.
\item Do a few things, use the system for a while. Maybe even save and
resume the image.
\item Now, it is easy. All classes that still have a nil in the {\em
mehodDict} is because they were not used, and those who have something
different from {\em nil} is because they were. With the message {\em
ImageSegment>>activeClasses} you can restore all remaining MethodDictionary
faults and return the active classes. And with the message {\em
ImageSegment>>swapOutInactiveClasses} you can make up segments by grouping
unused classes by system category and write them to disk.
A very important thing is that if you send the message {\em
discoverActiveClasses} you must then have to send the message {\em
activeClasses} or {\em swapOutInactiveClasses} because otherwise you will
have a lot of classes with the {\em methodDict} in {\em nil}.
\end{enumerate}
is it clear ?

Thanks nicolas
there are part of traits that inherit heavy optimisation that nathanael did in 2002-3
to get subs second browser update showing traits and classes feedback.
One of these days we will have to clean that too.

This is correct.

do not deprecated them since this is working. :)

What is the link with imageSegment?
