Hi all,
We are happy to announce Fuel 1.9.
Fuel is an open-source general-purpose object serialization framework developed in Pharo. You can find more information on our website [1].
The default set of packages of this version already comes in Pharo 2.0, so you it's not necessary to install it there. However, Fuel also works out-of-the-box in Pharo from 1.1 up to 2.0, as well as in Squeak 4.1 up to 4.4. You can see our documentation [2] for complete installation and use guides.
Fuel is a very nice piece of work and I appreciate the effort to support Squeak. Good design, good implementation, good documentation, what's not to like :-)
One issue in loading from Metacello #stable, FLBenchmarks class>>generateMiniSerializationVersionsComparison has this:
Array with: 1 with: #1 with: '1'.
But for Squeak in needs to be:
Array with: 1 with: #'1' with: '1'.
I can't run the tests in Squeak, but the Fuel package itself seems fine.
#1 = 1 true
#'1' = 1 false
have you changes that in squeak? this is about syntax, i think.
It has been like this since Squeak 3.6 or before, so it was not changed in Squeak. The expression #1 parses as an integer, although I do not know the reason.
Actually, in current Squeak, #1 is a syntax error. Which is better than silently answering a different value than before. And it makes sense because "1" isn't a valid selector.

The expression #'1' parses as a symbol in both Squeak and Pharo.
