Ah maybe, I interpreted literal literally. Let Sudhakar talk... Nicolas 2010/7/22 Stéphane Ducasse <stephane.ducasse@inria.fr>

It's different because evaluated only once, either at method compilation or at first execution (lazy initialization).
but Sudhakar use case did not show that he wanted something different. or I totally do not understand.
#( 123 23 'das' ) whynot: #( 'ac'->23 2->'casd' myVar1) ... evaluates to a collection..
Would this be of interest in general... I have always wanted a more
capable literal array than what we have now..
#( 123 23 'das' ) whynot: #( 'ac'->23 2->'casd' myVar1) ... evaluates to a collection..
so I just tried this out with a BlockClosure:
asArray
| stmts anArray |
stmts := self decompile statements. anArray := Array new: stmts size. stmts doWithIndex: [ :eaNode :indx| | start end value| start := (eaNode asString indexOf: ${)+1. end := (eaNode asString lastIndexOf: $})-1. value := Compiler evaluate: (eaNode asString copyFrom: start
to: end) for: self receiver logged: false.
anArray at: indx put: value]. ^anArray
So we could do: ['abc'->123. 'def'->456. 'efg'->789. 'hij'->123. 'klm'->456.] asArray. [self checkThisUsingKeywordMethod: 'abc' with:'efg'. localVar1.
instanceVar1 ] asArray
to yield arrays.. not neat, I would much rather prefer the literals do
their job their way...
but works.. for the narrow set I have tried so far..
Any comments.. -Skrish
