I tried some methods from TBehavior basicAddSelector:withMethod: but for example Nautilus, directly modifies method dict Where? we should fix it.
I hacked a simple experimental version. But I don't yet understand the workflow for initialisation of the Symbol class (with rehash, interned, and compacting).
If we hook into adding methods, then compactSymbolTable and rehash could just reset the SelectorTable and fill it after by going over all methodsâ¦
see attached changesets.
I will have a look. I know that andres valloud implemented a better SymbolTable but he never released it open-source.
load with:
DangerousClassNotifier disableDuring:[ String subclass: #Symbol instanceVariableNames: '' classVariableNames: 'NewSymbols OneCharacterSymbols SymbolTable SelectorTable' package: 'Collections-Strings' ].
DangerousClassNotifier disableDuring:[ 'selectortable.1.cs' asFileReference fileIn. ]. Symbol initSelectorTable. 'use_selector_table.cs' asFileReference fileIn.
what do you think ?
(selectortable.cs defines SelectorTable and some methods in Symbol and String) (use_selector_table adds selectors as internedSelectorSymbol if this selector is set as a selector on CompiledMethod and uses findInternedSelector .... in RubStyler visitMessageNode)
