[Pharo-project] Looking for ImageSegment tests
Hi all if by any chance you have some code that could be turned into tests, or some tests or some time to write tests for image segments this would be great because etoy is really deep inside image segment and I would really like to keep this beautiful idea working :) You see not everything is bad in Squeak :) Stef

yes please. We use this in production (like DabbleDB), and it works very well. I just hope to never really need to understand the code... Adrian

really read the code because it is full of etoy related ugly hack (really ugly) I would not rely on that. So we should really write some tests. This is really important. I never used imageSegment but someone with experience should do that. at least start. stef

yes, especially if we make changes in this area. I fear this a bit...

I'll add it to my todo list Adrian

I imagine :)
I'll add it to my todo list I can help I would love to write a small chapter on imageSegment for the Volume 2 because I also found the idea so cool.

We used imageSegments in Sophie to store cached font information, we then attempted to store a few more binary objects that way but soon discovered it was flaky..... Flaky meaning when we loaded an image segment it would crash the VM, but not always. We didn't have time to figure out exactly what the problem and back out our usage of it.
