<br>The question is, if I send a normal message to a normal object. Example:<br><br>| anObject |<br>anObject := MyClass new.<br>anObject foo<br><br>Now...I am sure that "anObject" was marked with the bit. But what about:<br>

self deny: (unUsed primitiveGetUsedBit: (anObject class >> #foo)).<br> <br> anObject foo.<br><br> self assert: (unUsed primitiveGetUsedBit: anObject).<br> self assert: (unUsed primitiveGetUsedBit: anObject class).<br>
self assert: (unUsed primitiveGetUsedBit: (anObject class >> #foo)).<br> <br><br>should all the asserts pass? I ask because I don't know how CompiledMethods are executed (they receive a normalSend like any other object?) nor how class are accessed.<br>
