What questions is, what are these faults? Why a method dictionary can be in nil ? How is this produced ? And how is it fixed?<br>

These faults are messages generated by the VM when a class has no method dictionary. Why? Because it can be used to discover which classes are used.<div> </div></blockquote><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

See ClassDescription>>induceMDFault.<br>

Ok. Perfect. I could perfectly saw that when trying to discover used classes. I also saw the method ClassDescription>> induceMDFault.
<br> <br>However, I still have this question:<br><br>Forget about discovering classes, could be possible that for a certain situation the VM puts a nil to a method directory or always that happens this is done with that intention, throught the message induceMDFault ? If it is always throught induceMDFault the only sender is to discover used classes with ImageSegment. So...it is used ONLY in that?<br>
