[Help-smalltalk] gst-remote -e 'ObjectMemory snapshot' quits the remote server

[Holger Hans Peter Freyther]

Hi,

when developing I try to load code changes into a remote GST instance and if I
think the change is good I would like to create a new image. I am using the
above code to force a snapshot. What happens is that gst-remote is terminating.

I have attached the output of the gst-remove --server when it terminates. So I
assume that one of the 'changed:' calls makes the FileDescr close all open
files. From what I see this should only happen with #aboutToQuit. I am not not
sure where this is coming from (i created the b in invoke_hook_smalltalk).

Is this a 'known feature'?
