Hi All, Thank you for the replies. I see it is not an easy bug to fix. Do you have any idea, when this can be fixed? Or can you suggest me some other way/workaround, how to get/generate the source code of a block? Thank you very much! Cheers, Jan BTW, the tests to execute: self assert: [ :ctx | [ ctx atEnd ] ifTrue: [ ] ] asString = '[ :ctx | [ ctx atEnd ] ifTrue: [ ] ]' self assert: [ :ctx | [ ctx atEnd ] whileTrue: [ ] ] asString = '[ :ctx | [ ctx atEnd ] whileTrue: [ ] ]' On 8 October 2014 18:43, Marcus Denker <marcus.denker@inria.fr> wrote:

Hi,
I need to extract a source code from a block closure and I found something strange:
[ :ctx | [ ctx atEnd ] ifTrue: [ ] ] . [ :ctx | [ ctx atEnd ] whileTrue:[ ] ].
Print of the first line returns: '[ :ctx | [ ctx atEnd ] ifTrue: [ ] ]'
Print of the second line returns: '[ ctx atEnd ]'
And honestly, I have no idea why. This behaviour was observed in Pharo3 and Pharo4.
Is there a way how to get a consistent result, i.e. '[ :ctx | [ ctx atEnd ] whileTrue:[ ] ]' for a second line?
I think this is an example that exposes a bug that we still have in the source mapping⦠on Context, see
sourceNode "Return the source node of the method or the block corresponding to the receiver" ^ (method sourceNodeForPC: self neighborPCWithCorrectMapping) enclosingMethodOrBlockNode "Uncomment the following once the pc->AST mapping is fixed" "^ (method sourceNodeForPC: (pc ifNil: [ self startpc ])) enclosingMethodOrBlockNode"
#neighborPCWithCorrectMapping returns the inner send, which is wrong⦠this method needs to be rethought.
Yes it should. But that's not easy with optimized loop messages like whileTrue: & co. Ideally, the source mapping needs to be fixed because that's the reason this method exists in the first place.
The first step is to record a range for the byte code that an IRNode createsâ¦
Or else we accepts that "1 to: 1 do: [ :i | ^ thisContext sourceNode ]" returns a method node instead of a block node and use a different implementation.
