Hi,

This will be fixed by using the alternative bytecode set, likely in the next few weeks in Pharo 6 alpha/beta. Basically control flow messages (ifTrue:, to:do:, etc.) cannot have too many statements in their blocks (ifTrue: argument, to:do: second arguments, etc) or the compiler can't compile them due to bytecode set encoding limitation. The new bytecode set is encoded differently and allows such code to be compiled.

As a temporary solution, you need to split your code in multiple methods to lower the number of statements inside blocks inside control flow messages.��

Sorry for the annoyance. We're working on integrating a solution and we believe that this will be integrated in Pharo 6 in the next few weeks.

Regards,

Clement

Hi,

Sometimes (and also today) after formatting and saving a method, an Error is
