Product:

Fixed In:

Embedded ClientForwarder can't print itself

An embedded ClientForwarder can't print itself.  Instead, it tries to
replicate OPrintStream, resulting in the exception:

'Unhandled exception: Class creation error
- attempt to create a Smalltalk class for GemStone OPrintStream'

Workaround

As a workaround for this bug, file the following method in as SystemUser
and commit it.

category: 'printing'
method: ClientForwarder
printOn: aStream

        "Forward #printString instead of #printOn:, to avoid replicating the
         argument, a PrintStream."

        aStream nextPutAll: self printString
%
