You do not! :) If you want to pass values into an object you
may do this with your own constructor for the object. This
contructor creates a new object and passes some values to
it.

Example:

MyObject class>>on: aStream
   ^ self new
      stream: aStream

in your code you do:

myObject := MyObject on: aStream

hope this helps,
