Hello! I'm porting code from Cincom Smalltalk to Pharo. It's a web application so I've got several WAComponent instances and one component which inherits from WAFileLibrary that renders images. In the original code ( the one that runned in VW) i had the following instance method in the component that inherits from WAFileLibrary:
logoJpg ^ByteArray asPackagedString: '?=#?8@@PR$YIQ @A@ D@X@A @@C?8P))QW!)Y @@RT$*@@ @@@@G@AHA@0@......etc etc'
But now when i run it in Pharo the debbugger doesn't recognize #asPackagedString: message.
Does anyone know which method should I use in order to render that image?
Thanks in advance! Mercy beaucoup!
Emilia You could try to port ByteArray class>.#asPackagedString: from (VW?) to Pharo Smalltalk. It can't be that hard - is there a spec for this format ?
The spec/how it works is well described in comments, believe it or not ;) Available to port without copyright issues though? I doubt it. Cheers, Henry
