What has changed in implementation "class" message in between Pharo 1.3
and 1.4? Is it compiled inline now or something like that?
no, the other way around, now #class is NOT bytecoded, and therefore is
managed as a normal message send.
That is much better. Thanks! I like progress even if it breaks old code.
:) But we always try to minimize else we would go much faster and btw class should not break older code :)
It did break Mocketry (http://www.squeaksource.com/Mocketry) I would also suspect it breaks things like WriteBarrier and Magma and similar stuff performing magic. -- Milan Mimica http://sparklet.sf.net
