Hi guys

We wrote

| cp |
"I should have the same entity than a copy of myself"
self assert: (self nodeClass hasExactlySamePropertiesThan: self

nodeClass deepCopy).

cp := self nodeClass deepCopy.
cp propertyNamed: #NOP ifAbsentPut: 12000.
"This property is described as a fame property but not existing on the

copy so two entities should have different properties" self deny: (self nodeClass hasExactlySamePropertiesThan: cp).

and deepCopy loops on a FMValueLink
