Salut Stef!

Don't you think we could solve this by doing something along the lines of: CompiledMethod>> valueWithReceiver: aClass Arguments: argList | aProcess aContext | aContext _ MethodContext sender: thisContext sender receiver: aClass method: self arguments: argList. aProcess _ Process forContext: aContext priority: Processor activePriority. aProcess resume ?

Joyeux NoÎl et Bonne AnnÈe

Hi

I wanted to port the MethodWrappers of John Brant to Squeak to learn a bit

more

the differecne between VW and Squeak and I discovered that there is no way (or I did not find it) like in VW to execute a method. In VW we can invoke a method by sending it the message valueWithReceiver: arguments: .

Is there any plans to introduce this in Squeak? In VW this is a primitive and it give a lot of power to build tracing, debugging....tools.
