iphone vm goes to 1.06b1
by John M McIntosh 10 Oct '08

10 Oct '08

I've pushed out a new iPhone VM, and updated the SVN tree. I was unable to update squeaksource (it is down) ftp://ftp.smalltalkconsulting.com/experimental/iPhoneAdHoc 1.06b1 This VM (thanks to a suggestion from David Pennell, and later Bert Freudenberg) mmaps the image file into memory at a start location of 100MB, and mmaps the trailing adjacent block of free young space as anonymous memory. This is Apple's preferred fast way to read larger blocks of data from a file. Obviously I need to code up a desktop VM that mmaps the image at 100MB so that you save an image that has a start offset of 100mb to skip the object memory pointer swizzle step at later start time. If you are using a macintel machine then byteswapping is not needed. It also includes code to support activating acceleration data, and location data, currently that code is in the image, not on squeaksource yet. I note the location data code is untested, it's raining here and I don't have good visibility inside to the sats in order for location services to kick out an event to test with. Also I made some changes to how select() errors are handled (this is an outstanding apple bug), which might affect CPU usage when squeak is idle, so feedback on that is welcome.

Building the freetype-plugin for win32
by Markus Fritsche 10 Oct '08

10 Oct '08

Hello, I have the sources as supplied at http://www.squeakvm.org/win32/release/SqueakVM-Win32-3.10.7-src.zip, the gnutools build environment and the dx7sdk - I can build regular VMs with my setup. Does anybody know what additional requirements I have to fulfil to build the freetype plugin? Are there any libraries, headers etc. that need to be installed? Kind regards, Markus

Squeak/Pharo as service on Windows
by Bill Schwab 10 Oct '08

10 Oct '08

Hello all, I am trying to run a Pharo+Seaside image as a service on XP and ultimately win2k3, and just got it going on xp at least using the appraoch documented on the Wiki: http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/105 I will try it on 2k3 either tonight or tomorrow. Recommendations point toward using svrany, but I cannot get that to work. Windows gives me a message along the lines of "the service started and then stopped" and further says that some services stop if they have nothing to do. Any ideas what might be going on, how I might debug it, etc.? If you strongly disagree with the recommendation to use svrany, please say so. However, I am still curious about what might be going wrong and how to find it. Bill Wilhelm K.

Re: Squeak/Pharo as service on Windows

I moved the image to the win2k3 machine and had similar results: the wiki-style service runs. However, the Seaside app works when the image is run on the desktop, but not when the app is running as the service. Is there something else I need to do? The Kom service is running. Bill Wilhelm K.

problem face with plugin
by Ang Beepeng 09 Oct '08

09 Oct '08

I've wrote a simple plugin to perform Gaussian elimination on matrix. Before compiling it, I test it with the simulator, MyPlugin doPrimitive: 'primGauss'. The answer returned correctly. But after I compile it into an external plugin, the plugin return different answer, wrong answer. Can anyone tell me what are the possible mistakes I've make, where should I look into to correct this. Thanks.

I see some recent activity at http://www.squeaksource.com/ss.html and would like to know what Squeak/Seaside is needed to get this to load so I can port it to GemStone.

Board or Leadership?
by Janko Mivšek 09 Oct '08

09 Oct '08

Dear all, In the light of recent changes it is a time to finally decide and consistently use the name, so Board or Leadership? Members report as Leadership but on the Squeak website is still named as the Board. Another question, is Board/Leadership still part of SqueakFoundation or not? I would say it should be for Squeak in general and not just for foundation. This should also be reflected on website, now the Board is behind Foundation: http://www.squeak.org/Foundation/Board/ but it should be behind Community: http://www.squeak.org/Community/. What do you think? Janko -- Janko Mivšek AIDA/Web Smalltalk Web Application Server http://www.aidaweb.si

Join the Smalltalk group on LinkedIn
by Janko Mivšek 08 Oct '08

08 Oct '08

Dear Smalltalkers, A while ago I opened a Smalltalk group on LinkedIn and you are invited to join: http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=100141 For those who don't know yet: LinkedIn is a professional network of people with their CVs, pretty good for professional career development, finding jobs, business opportunities etc. A lot of Smalltalkers are already there so I thought creating a Smalltalk group won't be a bad idea. After you request to join you need to wait for my approval. Sorry for that but it seems there is no other way to join the group on LinkedIn. But don't worry, no one was rejected so far :) Best regards Janko -- Janko Mivšek AIDA/Web Smalltalk Web Application Server http://www.aidaweb.si
