Mariano, was there any progress on this?


Not really. The problem was that at that moment, the Fuel's design regarding Streams was not very beatiful and we were depending on a lot of messages on Streams. Now in Fuel 1.8 we have reified FLEncoder and FLDecoder and hence we depend only on a few methods for streams:

Write stream:

nextPut: aSmallInteger
nextBytesPutAll: aBytesObject
nextWordsPut: aWordObject

Read stream:

next
next:numberOfBytes into: aBytesObject
nextInto: aCollection
fuelNextWordsInto: aWordsObject


So if someone help me to figure it out how to do it in XStreams let me know and I try.� Moreover, we have also improved the tests and now you can run all of them with the steam you want. Basically, you have to subclass FLStreamStrategy and implement #writeStreamDo: and #readStreamDo:. So far we have FLByteArrayStreamStrategy, FLFileStreamStrategy, FLMultiByteStreamStrategy and FLFileSystemFileStreamStrategy (for FS).

So...the procedure is to create FLXSteamsStrategy accordly and start trying to create (as extensions) the needed methods ;)
