Regarding the headerFlagForEncoder: method: I only wanted to make the

code easier to understand. I have no experience with the CompiledCode

and Encoder classes and did not want to break anything there.


Regarding the two commits: I should have ignored the change... I have now

moved the commit in the Inbox to the Treated Inbox. The change is still

open for discussion though :)?

2017-05-19 14:22 GMT+02:00 <commits at source.squeak.org<mailto:commits at source.squeak.org>>:
Patrick Rein uploaded a new version of Kernel to project The Trunk:
http://source.squeak.org/trunk/Kernel-pre.1105.mcz

==================== Summary ====================

Name: Kernel-pre.1105
Author: pre
Time: 19 May 2017, 2:22:29.00196 pm
UUID: 7e22498c-7586-584c-a2a9-81331c572590
Ancestors: Kernel-pre.1104

Removes a redundancy in CompiledCode.

=============== Diff against Kernel-nice.1103 ===============

Item was changed:
  ----- Method: CompiledCode class>>headerFlagForEncoder: (in category 'method encoding') -----
  headerFlagForEncoder: anEncoder
-       anEncoder class == PrimaryBytecodeSetEncoderClass ifTrue:
-               [^0].
-       anEncoder class == SecondaryBytecodeSetEncoderClass ifTrue:
-               [^SmallInteger minVal].
        "This allows subclasses for compiler variants such as the ScriptEncoder in EToys
         to continue to function."
+       (anEncoder isKindOf: PrimaryBytecodeSetEncoderClass) ifTrue:
-       (anEncoder class inheritsFrom: PrimaryBytecodeSetEncoderClass) ifTrue:
                [^0].
+       (anEncoder isKindOf: SecondaryBytecodeSetEncoderClass) ifTrue:
-       (anEncoder class inheritsFrom: SecondaryBytecodeSetEncoderClass) ifTrue:
                [^SmallInteger minVal].
        self error: 'The encoder is not one of the two installed bytecode sets'!

Then why not send a message back to anEncoder?
Way more efficient than testing classes sequentially and recursively...

Item was added:
+ ----- Method: Number>>** (in category 'mathematical functions') -----
+ ** aNumber
+
+       ^ self raisedTo: aNumber!

Above change can't both be waiting in inbox and be commited to trunk
