Please do not ask me how to reproduce this... :) Actually, I *think* it might be triggered by certain types of syntax errors. Bottom line is that the sometime I do a fair bit of coding in the debugger, only to find that the fruits of my labor went to oblivion and beyond. Gone - no trace of it. It has happened enough that that I believe there are legs to it.
Has anyone else seen it?
Yes, many times. In Squeak, so it might well be in those parts still common to both. I happened to be working with partial continuations, so I was actively hacking the stack in which I was debugging, but I've seen it occasionally elsewhere too. You edit the method, accept, restart... and if you open a Browser on that method the method's unchanged and versions shows no trace of your edit. frank
