[Pharo-project] Pool dictionaries
What is the current status of pool dictionaries? I have some code that uses one, and for pretty good reason. What do I need to do? Bill
See SharedPool and subclasses... No longer dictionaries as such, explained in the class comment. Subclass SharedPool with the name you want and add class vars and initialisers.

Gary, I found SharedPool, but it was not clear to me how it was supposed to work. By initializers, do you mean a class-side #initialize that sets the values of the class variables? How many class variables can a class have? There are quite a few constants in/for the offending gizmo =:0 I could create multiple pools, which might make things more readable, but the real goal is to just make it work.

Hi Bill, not sure of the limit, if there is one. See BalloonEngineConstants for an example (that has lots too!).

There is no limit in the number of class variables nor the number of pool variables, not the number of globals in a namspace, they all behave like a Dictionary... The limit is on the number of literals you can embed in a method, and each shared variable (Gloabls, class varaibles and pool variables) consumes one slot. Practically you'll just need to split your initialization into several chunks MyPool>>initialize self initializeThis; initializeThat; initializeTheRest.

Gary, Now THAT helped :) One caveat is that the resulting monolithic #initialize overwhelms the compiler. At least the compiler complains about it rather than silently failing. I simply broke up the source into #initialize1 and 2, and all appears to have worked.
