Hi--

I just experienced an amusing imprinting session. The main application I'm transferring happened to evaluate (HttpAdaptor dataTimeout), which sends Object>>binding. To transfer the latter method, the source system must immediately define and initialize a global variable method literal ("Binding") in the target system. Doing *that* requires defining a couple other classes (BindingsAccessor and DynamicBindings) and initializing them, and defining and signalling a new Exception subclass (BindingsLocator).

Well, it all worked. The amusing part is that the target system (basically Dan's 2.2 mini snapshot) had no exception-handling support at the outset; it got imprinted inline as a side effect. :)

So, I think this stuff actually works... I plan to make a new release soon, so that others can try to find things that the imprinter can't deal with. In the meantime, I'd appreciate any test suggestions (like the HttpAdaptor one-liner above).

thanks,

-C
