ObjectExplorer and Text instances

Hi,

While inspecting and exploring at various Text instances I noticed that the inspector shows the instance variables to Text instances (string and runs) but explorer just show the string directly, not as a instance variable, and runs is not shown at all.

Anybody know why that is ?

Cheers,

Karl

Ah, thank you.

Now I made it possible to drill down into the guts of text in explorer :-)

Text>>explorerContents

^Array new: self size streamContents: [ :stream |

(self class allInstVarNames asOrderedCollection withIndexCollect: [:each :index |

stream nextPut: (

ObjectExplorerWrapper

with: (self instVarAt: index)

name: each

model: self )]).

(1 to: self size do: [ :index |

stream nextPut: (

ObjectExplorerWrapper

with: (self at: index)

name: index printString

model: self) ])]

Cheers,

Karl
