What is an example that causes the error?
And - are you talking about Color's class method hex:? e.g.
Color hex: 0.43
I ask in case you have a package loaded I don't, or something of that nature. (I don't see a "hex" instance method on Color in my base 3.8 image, but I did note that the hex: class method eventually calls the kinds of things you're talking about.)
Hi Ben,
Yes - sorry. hex instance method is added by seaside. Looks like so:
hex ^ ((self red * 255) asInteger printPaddedWith: $0 to: 2 base: 16) , ((self green * 255) asInteger printPaddedWith: $0 to: 2 base: 16) , ((self blue * 255) asInteger printPaddedWith: $0 to: 2 base: 16).
Then Integer#printPaddedWith:to:base::
printPaddedWith: aCharacter to: anInteger base: aRadix "Answer the string containing the ASCII representation of the receiver padded on the left with aCharacter to be at least anInteger characters." | aStream padding digits | #Numeric. "2000/03/04 Harmon R. Added Date and Time support" aStream := WriteStream on: (String new: 10). self printOn: aStream base: aRadix showRadix: false. digits := aStream contents. padding := anInteger - digits size. padding > 0 ifFalse: [^ digits]. ^ ((String new: padding) atAllPut: aCharacter; yourself) , digits
Which is how we get to printOn:base:showRadix, which calls printStringRadix:
