Another /detail/ is that LinkedList's design is heavily tied to the
VM. Our linked list implementation can contain any object that *looks
like a link*, meaning
- in the higher level they have to understand the message nextLink
and nextLink:
- in the lower level, if it is a linked list used by the VM, the
nextLink should be the first inst var of the object.
What I mean with this is that we should be careful when changing
linked list. Changing its internal representation may crash your
image ^^.
We should really rename it to “ProcessList” and put a comment “do not
touch!!!”, then make a copy and have a Linked List that we can change…
there are many issue tracker entries related to the linked list, as
people try to use it but nobody dares to change it.
I reimplemented it once.
Now I was just consider Stack implementation.
