[Vm-dev] linux minheadless pharo vm builds itimer or heartbeat?

[Alistair Grant]

Hi All,

Are Pharo linux minheadless builds itimer or threaded heartbeat?

(all the listings below are extracts, not the complete file / page)

The file list on bintray suggests that they are itimer:

While travis indicates that only threaded heartbeat versions are built:

https://travis-ci.org/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/builds/553922116

Setting environment variables from .travis.yml
$ export ARCH="linux64x64"
$ export FLAVOR="pharo.cog.spur"
$ export CPU_ARCH="x64"
$ export HEARTBEAT="threaded"
$ export BUILD_WITH_CMAKE="yes"


.travis.yml agrees with the travis output:

  - stage: "Minheadless CMake builds"
  - env: ARCH="linux32x86" FLAVOR="pharo.cog.spur" CPU_ARCH="x86"
HEARTBEAT="threaded" BUILD_WITH_CMAKE="yes"
  - env: ARCH="linux64x64" FLAVOR="pharo.cog.spur" CPU_ARCH="x64"
HEARTBEAT="threaded" BUILD_WITH_CMAKE="yes"


And pack-vm.sh seems to be doing the right thing when determining how
to name the archive:

  for dir in */; do
    if [[ "${ARCH}" == *"ARM"* || "${dir}" == *"ht/" ]]; then
      name="${IDENTIFIER}"
    else
      name="${IDENTIFIER_ITIMER}"
    fi


Unfortunately figuring out which VM is being used isn't helped by the
fact that "pharo --version" doesn't work with minheadless:

$ ./pharo --version
Opening Image: --version
Opening Image: No such file or directory
Error opening image file: --version


Thanks,
Alistair
