Hi Guille,<div><br></div><div> I use VMMaker class>>activeVMMakerClassFor: to create the VMMaker, and hence the code generator, using 'Cross' as the platform name, which yields a <span class="" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;color:rgb(0,0,0)">CrossPlatformVMMaker. Look at the methods in VMMaker class's configurations </span><span class="" style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;color:rgb(0,0,0)">protocol. IMO, this is the right way to generate sources. e.g.</span></div>
