He was porting his stuff from Squeak 3.9 3107 apparently. c.f. #(12 35) asByteArray asInteger asByteArray Unfortunately heavily used when doing low-level stuff with external devices socket data etc. (let us not get into endianess either though ;-) ) Regards, Gary ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stéphane Ducasse" <stephane.ducasse@inria.fr> To: <Pharo-project@lists.gforge.inria.fr> Sent: Monday, August 23, 2010 11:01 AM Subject: Re: [Pharo-project] 'foo' asTime
#[12 35] asInteger is not in 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2 It does not work in squeak trunk either did not work in 3.9 either. So I'm puzzled.
Now everybody can create his own personal package with the extensions they like.

One of our developers recently complained of #asInteger being removed from ByteArray for instance...

I would really like to have the approach proposed by K. Beck on conversion methods. Conversion methods for API compatible objects. Of course it will lead to less compact program (URL readFrom: 'http://' instead of 'http://' url) but avoids a lot of code in String (of course class extensions limit the plague).
Hi, please reconsider this. There is just no way (Duration seconds: 3) is better than '3 seconds'.
This smacks of working for the computer instead of the other way around.
