In the light of this answer, I remember there's been a plan to support immutability of objects at the VM level? Is that on the roadmap for Cog? rado Wed, 10 Feb 2010 13:05:31 GMT Lawson English http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/squeak/message/146516 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/squeak/message/146516 Hey all...

I have had some situations where I wanted them. Eliot's compression example is one of them - wrapping the algorithm into a Generator would allow trivial Wed, 10 Feb 2010 08:22:54 GMT Lukas Renggli http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/squeak/message/146511 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/squeak/message/146511 ... I've fixed that. There could be more bugs, as I've never used them beyond the anecdotical examples showing off runtime reflection.
