Hi
IÂ´m doing a class for embed files in class methods. I want know if exists a
best way for do that task than IÂ´m using... I do something like that...
Â  Â  Â  Â  Â codeSource := CLStringBuilder new.
Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  codeSource appendLine: nameOfResource; tab;
Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  appendFormat: '^''{1}'' -> ''' withValues: {fileName}.
Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  readStream := FileStream readOnlyFileNamed: aFilePath.
Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  base64Contents := (Base64MimeConverter mimeEncode: readStream binary)
contents.
Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  codeSource append: base64Contents asString.
Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  codeSource append:''''.
Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  CLSystem createMessageInClass: self
Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  withCodeSource: (codeSource asString)
Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  inProtocol: 'resources'
Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  Â  inClassSide: true.
I get the next result:
courierNewBoldttf
Â  Â  Â  ^'Courier New Bold.ttf' ->
'AAEAAAATAQAABAAwRFNJR0rTjTkACiUQAAAbgEdERUYTqQ1VAApAkAAAAkxHUE9T3wr9iAAK

.......... '.
Exists a enhanced way for do that? My main problem is the image grow very
much. When I export to Monticello I get a file of 900 KB. When embed a file
of 600KB the final size on Monticello file is 2MB!! and almost 4MB of
difference in size of image Â :(
Many thanks for the help
