Hi Pablo, DrGeo is shipped with two fonts, depending on the system locale at DrGeo start up, one or another one is used. So the cache need to be reset at. May be there is better to handle that, it worked pretty well until now. Hilaire Le 10/04/2018 à 10:53, tesonep@gmail.com a écrit :
Hi Hilaire, Â thanks for spliting the subject, I have missed the discussion in the other thread.
The #unload message should be used to clean up the system in case the class is unload from the system. That's why the logic has been move to the #resetCurrent method that is called during the shutdown of the image.
However, the question is not if the method should be included in a compatibility package or if the users should send #resetCurrent. The problem is why it is needed to clean up the font cache, it should not be needed. The only scenario I think is if you want to replace a font (in the Pharo world a Face, because there is a font per each combination of face and point size) named exactly the same with another one. I think this is no normal behavior.
I will try to see why this is needed when loading DrGeo in Pharo7 and fix the FT implementation not to need it. Maybe it is hiding a bigger issue.
