You need to update the project files (gyp, visual studio, etc.) with the new
file.

[Vitaly Repeshko, 2011/03/22 17:07:49]

Updated.

I rather like less nested if-statements:

if ((data_ & kTagMask) == kSingletonTag &&
    pointer == single_value()) {

[Vitaly Repeshko, 2011/03/22 17:07:49]

Can't combine them, because we need to return.

+      }
+      return;
+    }
+    list()->RemoveElement(pointer);

+    ASSERT((data_ & kTagMask) != kEmptyTag);
+    if ((data_ & kTagMask) == kSingletonTag) {
+      T* result = single_value();
+      data_ = kEmptyTag;
+      return result;
+    }
+    return list()->RemoveLast();
+  }
+
+  void Rewind(int pos) {

+      return;

+    if ((data_ & kTagMask) == kSingletonTag) {
+      ASSERT(pos == 0 || pos == 1);
+      if (pos == 0) {

+      if (start == 0 && start <= end) {

[fschneider, 2011/03/22 10:15:52]

Maybe a matter of taste - I prefer

if (start == 0 && end >= 0) {

here.

[Vitaly Repeshko, 2011/03/22 17:07:49]

Done.
