Hi!

�

I guess you could add a guard for the #nextInto: message send in GZipReadStream>>#nextString when the length is 0. But I haven't tried.

I think the problem is that this method supposes n >= 1:

InflateStream>>

next: n into: buffer startingAt: startIndex

"Read n objects into the given collection.�

Return aCollection or a partial copy if less than

n elements have been read."

| c numRead count |

numRead := 0.

["Force decompression if necessary"

(c := self next) == nil�

ifTrue:[^buffer copyFrom: 1 to: startIndex+numRead-1].

"Store the first value which provoked decompression"

buffer at: startIndex + numRead put: c.

numRead := numRead + 1.

"After collection has been filled copy as many objects as possible"

count := (readLimit - position) min: (n - numRead).

buffer�

replaceFrom: startIndex + numRead�

to: startIndex + numRead + count - 1�

with: collection�

startingAt: position+1.

position := position + count.

numRead := numRead + count.

numRead = n] whileFalse.

^buffer�
