Bug 38448

Informational

GemBuilder for Smalltalk/VW

7.2, 7.1.2

VW 7.6

7.2.1

Text display problem with VisualWorks 7.6

Some text panes do not display correctly with VW 7.6.

Note that VW 7.6 is not yet released and is not a supported version
with GBS at this time.

Workaround

Replace the code for Inspector>>text with the following:

text
    "Answer the text displayed by the receiver."

    | string |
    field == nil ifTrue: [^Text new].
    string := [field = 'self'
        ifTrue: [self fieldValue inspectString]
        ifFalse: [self fieldValue gbxDebugPrintString]]
        gbxEvaluateOnTimeout: [self basicObjectPrintString: self fieldValue]
        onError: [:ex | self protectedBasicObjectPrintString: self
fieldValue].
    ^string asText
