![]() Squeak Smalltalk : System : ![]() Pool Dictionary Value In Method |
> Is the value of the associated variable hardcoded in the method > frame or the key in the dictionary. In squeak at least it is the _association_ from the dictionary that gets put in the method literal frame. Bytecodes then access the value by direct rape-and-pillage means. In VW a #value message is sent to the association, which allows more nuanced usage by subclassing.
