[Moose-dev] Re: Problem and solution for DistributionMaps in Pharo 1.1 [WAS] Fwd: problem with CompiledMethod equality

Hi guys. In that thread in the mailing lists, you can see the problem I had in Pharo 1.1 as keys of a Dictionary answers a Set. I used CompiledMethod as properties, and the equality of CompiledMethod answers true for methods even with different selectors. So I my case I have problems because elementsAndPropertyValue keys answer me less thing that I put. The solution, was to change elementsAndPropertyValue to a IdentityDictionary instead of Dictionary. So, I have to subclass DistributionMap, and override initializeInstanceVariables so that: initializeInstanceVariables partsAndElements := Dictionary new. elementsAndPropertyValue := IdentityDictionary new. colorMap := Dictionary new. colors := Color strongColors Do you think this is good ? do you have a better solution ?

Thanks!

I was debugging a problem with Moose and I realized that 2 different methods can have the same CompiledMethod. This was weird for me. I don't know if this is correct or not. For example, evaluate: (InstructionClient>>#methodReturnTop) = (InstructionClient>>#doDup) -> true If you look at CompiledMethod = aCompiledMethod "Answer whether the receiver implements the same code as aCompiledMethod." | numLits | self == aCompiledMethod ifTrue: [ ^ true ]. self class = aCompiledMethod class ifFalse: [ ^ false ]. self size = aCompiledMethod size ifFalse: [ ^ false ]. self header = aCompiledMethod header ifFalse: [ ^ false ]. self initialPC to: self endPC do: [ :i | (self at: i) = (aCompiledMethod at: i) ifFalse: [ ^ false ] ]. (self sameLiteralsAs: aCompiledMethod) ifFalse: [ ^ false ]. self halt. ^ true It is returning in the last ^ true. What was weird for me is that (self sameLiteralsAs: aCompiledMethod) returns true also. But if I print both literals: self literals -> {#methodReturnTop. (#InstructionClient->InstructionClient)} aCompiledMethod literals -> {#doDup. (#InstructionClient->InstructionClient)} So...for me they are differnt, but sameLiteralsAs: is returning true. Debugging that, it seems that in that method it is returning in the last ^ true. So...any hints? is this the expected behavior ? or it is a bug ?
