TextConstants

Hi, I noticed that this PoolDictinary is not implemented like the others that are based on SharedPool.

I made some research in this the mailing list (and in Squeak), and the only explanation I found is that it is a risky and time consuming task to change the implementation of TextConstant.

I would like to do a spike trying to implemented the change and see what I find.

Has anyone tried to perform this change?

Do you have any warning/suggestion?

Regards,

Saludos!
Nico.

Re: TextConstants

probably start step by step
defining first the sharedPool class
after after migrating silently (no ui feedback)

TextConstants are not constants at all, they can be added/removed/changed
on the fly. This is pretty hard to do with SharedPools.
