Hi All,

Thank you for the replies. I see it is not an easy bug to fix. Do you have any idea, when this can be fixed?

I will try to fix it next week...

Or can you suggest me some other way/workaround, how to get/generate the source code of a block?


The old compiler used a hack to decompile blocks for getting a textual representation��� one could port
the code from Pharo2 to the Package OpalDecompiler in Pharo4. (but I actually like the current scheme of
using the byte code-offset-to-AST mapping more).


step one: A nice tool��� GTInspector view of the byte codes that highlights what is thinks is the corresponding code in the source.
(This living Bytecode view replaces what before just printed out the #longPrintString of the CompiledMethod):
