Hi All,
This list has been amazinly quick and helpful so thank you all.
I'm continuing my adventure through the bytecode and I have a question about
the bytecodes for closures. Below is an example dump of a closure ([])
165 <8F 10 00 1E> closureNumCopied: 1 numArgs: 0 bytes 169 to 198
169 <10> pushTemp: 0
170 <C7> send: class
171 <83 11> send: selectors
173 <83 10> send: asSortedCollection
175 <52> pushLit: WriteStream
176 <53> pushLit: String
177 <CC> send: new
178 <EA> send: on:
The number on the left I will refer to as the line number to make my questions
more
clear.
Firstly, on line 165 the closure is reporting num copied 1. What is the 1
thing that it is copying?
Secondly, the send bytecode on line 171 is different to that on line 175.
Is it because 175 is using a set of known selectors while 171 has to refer to a
literal table?
Rgs, James.
