| Description |
This line generates #1204 assertion failure and a crash x: make object! [self: 0] On the other hand, this works, when perhaps it should fail with a message: x: make object! [] extend x 'self 0 probe x |
| Example code |
;; Crash: x: make object! [self: 0] ;; Should this work? x: make object! [] extend x 'self 0 probe x |

In R2, when you assigned self in the body of the object initialization block the value you assigned was what was returned by the MAKE OBJECT!. That behavior was bad, but there might be some remnant of it that is causing the first crash.
This needs some attention, at least the crash for now. General SELF handling needs to be decided on in the long run. |

Self is for reference only. It cannot be set. Above will generate an error now. |

The crash is fixed -- thanks:
x: make object! [self: 0] ** Script error: cannot set self - it is protected But 'extend still allows 'self to be a word in the object ... >> x: make object! [] extend x 'self 0 probe x == make object! [ self: 0 ] ... creating a case where 'self _can_ be set ... set in x 'self 555 probe x == make object! [ self: 555 ] ... but the object that cannot be saved and reloaded ... reduce load mold x ** Script error: cannot set self - it is protected ** Where: make reduce Is this the final decision on behavior? |

We should create a separate ticket for the APPEND object [self: 1] bug. |
