Hi guys. Some time ago Henry spot to us a small improvement for WriteStream &gt;&gt; nextPutAll: that we are using in Fuel, but I think it can be general. Henry comment was exactly:<br><br><i>Also: For variableBytes classes, if you rewrite: <br>

    <br>
    WriteStream<br>
    nextPutAll: <span class="il">aCollection</span><br>
    �<br>
    ���� | newEnd |<br>
    ��<b>�� <span class="il">collection</span> <span class="il">class</span> instSpec == <span class="il">aCollection</span> <span class="il">class</span> instSpec
      <span class="il">ifFalse</span>:</b><br>
    ���� ��� [^ super nextPutAll: <span class="il">aCollection</span> ].<br>
    �<br>
    ���� newEnd := position + <span class="il">aCollection</span> size.<br>
    ���� newEnd &gt; writeLimit ifTrue:<br>
    ���� ��� [self growTo: newEnd + 10].<br>
    �<br>
    ���� <span class="il">collection</span> replaceFrom: position+1 to: newEnd� with:
    <span class="il">aCollection</span> startingAt: 1.<br>
    ���� position := newEnd.<br>
    ��� <br>
    ��� ^ <span class="il">aCollection</span><br>
    <br>
    You can now pass all variableByte classes (Like ByteString) directly
    to a stream with a ByteArray <span class="il">collection</span>, and the
    replaceFrom:to:with:</i><div bgcolor="#ffffff"><i>startingAt: primitive will work correctly, just
    like the file primitive does<br>
    This means you don&#39;t need special Serializers for these either,�
    using f.ex. clunky nextStringPutAll: methods with manual asByteArray
    conversions.</i><br><br><br>So...if you agree, I can commit the patch.<br><br>Let me know.<br></div><br>-- <br>Mariano<br><a href="http://marianopeck.wordpress.com" target="_blank">http://marianopeck.wordpress.com</a><br>
