[Pharo-project] changing the bytecodes print
Hi folks. Did you see that when you see the bytecodes of a method you see something like: 49 <70> self 50 <21> pushConstant: 'SQ_HOST32' 51 <8F 00 00 02> closureNumCopied: 0 numArgs: 0 bytes 55 to 56 55 <71> pushConstant: true 56 <7D> blockReturn ....... The bytecode number here is printed in <hex> . However, in Interpreter and its #initializeBytecodeTable they use base 10. So, each time I read a bytecode, and I want to know which is the method associated with that, I need to convert it. So, I wonder if it makes sense to change the print, so that it prints in decimal. What do you think? To change that, it seems to be in InstructionPrinter >> #print but I cannot make it work yet :( cheers Mariano

I can understand your urge, but be aware that a Hex number in the bytecode range always takes up (at max) two characters (as in 00 â FF). Probably, using hex numbers ind the #initializeBytecodeTable would be the better idea? So Long, -Tobias
