I am just wondering...couldn't such compiled methods be compiled at runtime? say I use a String stream with a loop of arguments size and I build the string and then I get a CompiledMethod from it (kind of #compileSilently:. I guess it would be slower, but on the other hand I save the #lookupSelector: would that work? is it important the speed here? because I don't really know what these methods are used for exactly ;) Cheers > > > So...I wonder, do you think there could be another way so that to avoid > having all those methods in ProtoObject ? > > > > Thanks > > > > -- > > Mariano > > http://marianopeck.wordpress.com > > > > > -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com
