Hi everybody, I'm doing some experiments with the VM and I need to add some instance variables to classes like Symbol and Behavior, To be able to test the changes, I'm using the InterpreterSimulator. To be able to use the InterpreterSimulator, I have to run it with a small image (let's say, no bigger than 1.5 megs.). Everything works great up to here.
Now, to be able to change the definition of Symbol & Behavior, I have to use SystemTracer to generate a clone of the image with the changes that I want. So I started using SystemTracer to see how it worked, and I found a problem. If I generate a clone of the image that gets shipped with version 2.6, it works fine, I have no detected any problem. (But I need to shrink the image...) If I generate a clone of a shrinked image (after using majorShrink with some changes so it does not delete the class SystemTracer), Squeak crashes everytime I want to inspect something. The problem is that Squeak tries to access to a memory position that it is out of range... If I run the image with the InterpreterSimulator, I get the error "subscript is out of bounds". If I run the image with the compiled VM, it generates the dump that I'm attaching to this note.
I will appreciate if somebody can give me a hint to solve the problem (or solve it!). I'm using Squeak 2.6, no fixed applied on a Windows environment. Thank you, Hernan.
