Subject: Re: [Pharo-project] Closure update from eliot

I just used this in an updated Pharo0.1Core-10281cl.image

    PseudoContext becomeUncompact.
    LargeNegativeInteger becomeCompact.
    Smalltalk compactClassesArray at: 12 put: nil. "Stomp on the obsolete Translated whatsit"
    BlockClosure becomeCompact

Eliot wants
#(CompiledMethod MethodProperties Array LargeNegativeInteger LargePositiveInteger Float MethodDictionary Association Point Rectangle ByteString BlockClosure BlockContext MethodContext nil Bitmap nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil nil)

so do

(Smalltalk compactClassesArray select: [:e | e notNil and: [e isObsolete]])
       do: [:i | i becomeUncompact].
PseudoContext becomeUncompact.
Smalltalk garbageCollect.
LargeNegativeInteger becomeCompact.
BlockClosure becomeCompact.

gives then

Smalltalk compactClassesArray inspect

{CompiledMethod . MethodProperties . Array . LargeNegativeInteger . LargePositiveInteger . Float . MethodDictionary . Association . Point . Rectangle . ByteString . BlockClosure . BlockContext . MethodContext . nil . Bitmap . nil . nil . nil . nil . nil . nil . nil . nil . nil . nil . nil . nil . nil . nil . nil}

Which my squinting eyeballs this morning seem to say it's the same...

A post check is

Smalltalk compactClassesArray doWithIndex:
       [:c :i | c == nil ifFalse:
               [c indexIfCompact = i ifFalse: [self halt]]]
