I could reproduce it. Myabe I am saying something stupid, but didn't Cmd+. depends on the process priority? I mean, if the loop was caused by a Process with higher priority than Cmd+. then it cannot be interrupted. can someone help? cheers mariano On Wed, Jan 19, 2011 at 12:56 PM, Stéphane Ducasse < stephane.ducasse@inria.fr> wrote:

probably the loop was too tight and the system did not get a chance to react. This is not the right behavior but not clear how to change it.

Hi List,

Recently I had a bug causing an infinite loop, which in turn hanged the image. I thought that Cmd+. would allow me to stop this, but this is not the case.

Adding and executing this method hangs my image and Cmd+. does not stop it.

MyClass>>infinite ^self infinite

Is this the right behavior? Thanks in advance!
