Re: [Pharo-dev] Can we override == in Pharo ?

Hello,

here I have a class

A>>== ^ true

Now: a := A new. b := A new. a == b "Answers false" a perform: #== with: b "Answers true"

Do I have to remove the usage of the byte code for #== in the compiler to be able to override == ?

No, a==b should be used for "are the same Objects" (pointing to the same object) and not "are equal". Look for example at the commentn for ProtoObject>>== Nicolai
