What I will do (but slowly) is to write tests for DataStream and its subclasses. I would like to see the URI solution of mike for files. Stef
Stef,
That sounds fine, but I would want Damien to be involved. I would also like to discuss the pros and cons of a facade such as
ReadStream class>>on:aCollection ^aCollection readStream.
which I _think_ can be readily adapted to instantiate Nile streams. There would be a similar trick for write streams.
My thought was to patch things until streams came up on the milestones list. If you are finding streams are worse off than you thought and want to move it up, that's fine too. I'm happy to help.
