STON reader problem

OK, so I have installed Pharo 9.0 with the M1 VM and everything is nice and quick. I am porting my code across and I have a problem that involves STON Reader.

I use this to convert my objects for storage in my text based database. I can’t run my code because STON Reader fails when reading in one of the objects.

The contents are as follows:

"{#entryName:'PAYPAL *COSYFEET',#entryDate:Date['2021-01-25Z'],#transactionID:'202101250001',#entryAmount:-5041216832887849/140737488355328s8,#entryCategory:nil,#entryDescription:'35314369001 GB , 5959 22JAN21',#match:'N’}”

The errors is this:

Character 122 is at the conjunction of the 4 and 9 in the ewntryAmount: 5041216832887849/140737488355328s8,

Any help on this would be great. I have a few thousand entries to fix if there is a problem with the file (although my code works fine with this file under 8.0)

Re: STON reader problem

David,

You have to load a newer version of STON. You are trying to read a ScaledDecimal, support for this was added around Oct 2018.

https://github.com/svenvc/ston/commit/9c83e3cc2f00cab83e57f2e10a139d6ecef3cb30

See https://github.com/svenvc/ston for load/dependency instructions.
