I got confused about this because of what printString shows. At least printString could show what is intended to be in the stream, not more. Niko 2010/6/11 Henrik Sperre Johansen <henrik.s.johansen@veloxit.no>:

Hi list,

The following mini unit test fails:

readWriteStreamShouldHonorStartIndex self assert: ( (ReadWriteStream on: 'hallo' from: 3 to: 4) contents = 'll')

Instead, contents returns 'hall'

Steps to reproduce: 1. Subclass TestCase and add the above method 2. run the test

Well, this is more an issue with contents, which returns the entire collection up to readLimit. (or position if it's a WriteStream) From the ANSI standard: "content returns a collection that contains the receiver's _past_ and future sequence values, in order". The method which behaves as you expect, is called upToEnd.

Cheers, Henry
