Fuel fails in squeak

I loaded the latest Fuel from squeak source and it fails when materializing a Character from a FixedObjectCluster. Character class does not support basicNew.

Helpful>??

Re: Fuel fails in squeak

According to
https://travis-ci.org/theseion/Fuel
the tests are fine for the release version Squeak 5.1.

Could you post a code snippet which shows how it fails.

If you are using Squeak 6.0a, which version do you use?

Objects from Pharo written by Fuel may be read back into a Pharo image.
The same applies for a Squeak image. Objects from Squeak serialized
with Fuel may read into another Squeak image.

Fuel is a binary serializer

To move objects from Pharo to Squeak you need a text based solution such as
SIXX http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/84 or JSON.

In Squeak and Pharo Character are now immediate values like SmallInteger (since the Spur VM object format)

So you don't create a Character and can't sen basicNew, like you can't create a SmallInteger that way.

That means that the version of Fuel that you are using is for an older version of Squeak.

How did you load Fuel in Squeak?
