Hi Folks,
I am now working with the CMakeVMMaker on Pharo and am curious as to the maturity of the code before I tackle some build issues I am having with it. Please note that I am NOT looking for an answer to this specific build issue--I can trace that down and fix it just fine. I merely need a sense of the community's sense of the tools robustness so I can keep that in mind as future issues come up.
I am currently using the source tree from git clone git://gitorious.org/cogvm/blessed.git and running the generator.image in the blessed/image directory that is downloaded via the newImage.sh script.
It seems to run really well except I am getting what looks like a basic error
[ 95%] Building C object CMakeFiles/CogVM.dir/home/wm/usr/src/smalltalk/blessed/platforms/unix/vm/sqUnixMain.c.o In file included from /home/wm/usr/src/smalltalk/blessed/platforms/unix/vm/sqUnixMain.c:41:0: /home/wm/usr/src/smalltalk/blessed/platforms/Cross/vm/sqSCCSVersion.h:17:54: fatal error: vmVersionInfo.h: No such file or directory #include "vmVersionInfo.h" // defines REVISION_STRING
when running this script:
CogUnixConfig new addExternalPlugins: #( FT2Plugin ); addInternalPlugins: #( UnixOSProcessPlugin ); "generateForDebug;" generateSources; generate.
That missing #include threw up a red-flag for me (which I have not investigated) that made me question the tools maturity.
FWIW, I *really* like the approach of this tool. Having the configurations in their own objects makes perfect sense to me and it is nice to not have to deal with #IFNDEF foo #DEF bar #UNLESS oops #THEN hack #ENDIF stuff.
The blessed/image/newImage.sh is a nice feature as well.
thanks for your time.

This repository is largely outdated and no longer maintained. The official Pharo Cog VM is now hosted on github:
https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm
I feel sorry that you wasted your time on it :/

hi,
you are having two problems (one depending on the other).
1) you are using an old version. That branch was moved to http://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm like more than a year ago… there the scripts are outdated. 2) in your version, before execute sh build.sh, you need to execute (in “build" dir): ../script[I really do not remember the subdir name]/extract-commit-info.sh
that should generate the vmVersionInfo.h file
but well… I highly recommend you to use the correct branch before continue.
cheers, Esteban

he, I answered before getting the full thread. But well, the idea is there :) I support the last commit idea :)
