[Seaside-dev] Re: [Seaside Issues] Issue 555 in seaside: SequenceableCollection>>#beginsWith: and #endsWith: are non-portable

[John O'Keefe]

No, I'm only convinced that it different on different platforms, so it is a
portability issue.  I'm happy with resolution in either direction ( '123'
startsWith: '' returns ture or false) since VA Smalltalk never implemented
this method, although, since I've implemented the method in terms of
#indexOf:, I guess I prefer the current Pharo and VA Smalltalk
implementation since it seems more consistent., but I just think it needs to
be consistent if Seaside is going to use it.
