Hi,
I'm digging into some code I haven't touched in at least a year. I was surprised when something which used to work no longer works. The image has moved from a PPC Mac to a Windows PC. It is based on 3.10.2-7179.
The error that appears to be happening is when I attempt to put something into a Dictionary at a key that doesn't exist, I'm getting an #errorKeyDoesNotExist instead of it just putting the thing into the dictionary at that (new) key.
Dictionary>>at:put: is clearly supposed to create a new key if one doesn't exist.
OK, I just did a Quit->Save and started it back up again and the problem went away. :/
If anyone has any explanation, please share. Otherwise since the problem is gone, you can happily ignore me :)
Thanks,
Tim
