  Thanks Levente. However, #pointersToExcept:  does a GC at the

beginning...
so.. am I missing something?


Yes, at the beginning The MethodContexts are created after that GC.


 But those MC shouldn't be excluded by the instVar
 objectsToAlwaysExclude ?

objectsToAlwaysExclude := {
      results collector.
      thisContext.
      thisContext sender.
      thisContext sender sender.
      objectsToExclude.
  }.


Since #pointsTo: is not a primitive anymore,


That's an interesting point. Now I understand this better. Even if I didn't
know the reasons (now I do), I even tried adding some more senders but
still they appear :(
I tried (for example)

   objectsToAlwaysExclude := {
       results collector.
       thisContext.
       thisContext sender.
       thisContext sender sender.
       thisContext sender sender sender.
       thisContext sender sender sender sender.
       thisContext sender sender sender sender sender.
       objectsToExclude.
   }.

What I don't understand is why in Squeak it does work.

Because #pointsTo: is not used in Squeak (yet). As usual I dug deeper than 
I should have, so I'll publish a few changes soon.

Thanks in advance Levente!





it will create at least one new MethodContext which is not included in
that list.
