Hi guys,

I found this a bit strange and arguable. Upon materialization, for normal classes, Fuel uses #basicNew to instantiate objects and then sets its instances variables values getting them from the stream....

Today I found that SIXX sends #new first (*and hence #initialize is sent*) and after, if fails, it tries, #basicNew.

This 2 approaches have different results.

Which one would you expect?

Yours. SIXX's approach is doing unnecessary work. Answer it another way. Have you found any cases where using basicNew[:] leads to errors? If not, then it is the better approach because it is more efficient. -- best, Eliot
