[Pharo-project] Now you can use Fuel with FileSystem

Jan. 7, 2012

      Hi guys. Now you can use FileSystem streams for Fuel. Fuel only needs one
small package 'FuelFileSystem' which has just 3 extension methods, and
that's all ;)
There is also 'FuelFileSystemTests' which let's you run all fuel tests
using FS. If you want to do that, change FLSerializationTest >> setUp to
send #useFileSystemFileStream  rather than #useStandardFileStream and
that's all.
To install:

Gofer new
    squeaksource: 'MetacelloRepository';
    package: 'ConfigurationOfFuel';
load.

(ConfigurationOfFuel project version: #bleedingEdge) load: 'withFS'.

An example:

    | sourceArray loadedArray serializer stream materializer |
    sourceArray :=
        Array
            with: 'a string'
            with: Transcript
            with: [ Transcript show: 'a string' ].
    "Create a file and serialize on it"
    stream := (FSLocator imageDirectory / 'example.fuel') writeStream.
    serializer := FLSerializer newDefault.
    serializer serialize: sourceArray on: stream.
    stream close.
    "Load from the file"
    stream := (FSLocator imageDirectory / 'example.fuel') readStream.
    materializer := FLMaterializer newDefault.
    loadedArray := (materializer materializeFrom: stream) root.

Cheers
