Hi,
Now GTInspector can inspect objects that use custom Slot definitions.

<https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/14741/GTInspector-add-simple-slot-support>
create a class with he TestSlot (where the ivar lives in the Slot instance and
is thus shared
over all instances of A):
Object subclass: #A
slots: { #iv => TestSlot }
classVariables: { }
category: ‘Playground'
Inspect
A new
change “iv” to value (e.g. 5).
inspect another "A new”
==> it should show the value as 5.
Thus both reading and writing now is done via the Slot. (as such this require
just a very simple change in GT, of course).
The GT support of course needs to be improved later:
-> we need a view that shows the object “as it really is” (keep in mind, this
object has no VM level instance variable!).
-> In the view with the slots they should annotated so we see that it is a slot
and can easily navigate to the slot definition
-> … I am sure more will be obvious as soon as we use it.
