of course it is there newArray at: 34 put: Point new. now could not we have a well initialized point? What is the purpose of this one? Stef On Apr 21, 2011, at 6:39 PM, Stéphane Ducasse wrote:
with manuel oriol we started to play with the idea of a randomTester in Pharo. It poses a lot of questions.
Now doing the first experiments, I found an instance of point (nil@nil) (besides reciprocal broken on Point (0@0) and
(Point allInstances select: [:each | each x isNil]) first pointersTo
points me to recreateSpecialObjectsArray
I looked into the literals and others and I could not find.
Each time I execute Smalltalk recreateSpecialObjectsArray
I get a new nil@nil objects.... but forcing a GC garbage them. But I still have this nil@nil object around.
Does anybody have an idea from where nil@nil could come from?
