Description:

In the latest Pharo 7, on windows when I open two times an image and try to load a Metacello project in the second I get this error:

Instance of ZnBufferedReadStream did not understand #flush

How do you flush a READ stream ? What would that even do ?

I guess the problem is that on windows a file can be open only one time.

Maybe the first image have a read/write stream and the second only a read stream and the code do not expect this scenario?

It is not that we could not add it (since #flush is already on ZnEncodedStream it could be added on ZnBufferedReadStream, but still, what would it do, exactly ?

You say 'Windows cannot open a file twice', so #flush would close it ??

I'm not sure it's a Zinc streams problem.

I opened two times an image.

The first one probably opened the changes file with a ZnCharacterReadWriteStream.

The second one must have tried to open it like this too but failed because the file is already open in a write mode. So it must have open it with a ZnCharacterReadStream.

But the users of SourceFile must not have imagined this case and assume it's a writable stream which can be flushed.

I wish we could really get rid of the .sources and .changes... lots of complexity there
