Hi, I have just entered this list because I want to find out how I can use Spoon for my next BabyUML experiment.
README: /Double-click the "spoon.bat" file. This will start the Spoon processor, which starts a local web server. /OK/
In the "naiad" folder are components for remote browsing and inspecting of the Spoon memory from a Squeak 3.9 system (they probably work with earlier systems as well). To use them, first start the Spoon system as described above. /OK /Then start the "naiad" application with the object memory of your choice. /Squeak3.9/naiad OK/
Then, file in "naiad.st", and load the "naiad.pr" project. /OK. Poject with violet playfield (nice :-) ) and a workspace. /"Hi; here are a few expressions to get you started with remote browsing."
"Make sure you've filed in 'naiad.st' first." Smalltalk at: #ExampleWormholeServer put: (WormholeServer atPort: 9999). /Looks OK/ // / "/Make sure you've started the minimal memory first." ExampleWormholeServer connectToPort: 7777 atHostNamed: 'localhost'./ Fails. Executing the expression hangs with Wormhole>>peer being nil.
The Spoon image is open in a window, but that window is empty and I cannot find any menus or command lines.
*Perhaps I should start the /minimal memory/ first, but how?? * I'm not good at reading instructions, so I may have missed something. Any pointer will be welcome.
Thanks --Trygve
This is exciting! --Trygve
Hi Trygve--
"Make sure you've started the minimal memory first." ExampleWormholeServer connectToPort: 7777 atHostNamed: 'localhost'.
Fails. Executing the expression hangs with Wormhole>>peer being nil.
That should have worked; you were doing everything right up to that point. You had indeed started the minimal memory (that's the one with a blank display).
I'll try to duplicate the error.
thanks,

Craig, I see from recent mail that new users of SPOON are needed. I tried to become one at the end of May, but failed to get a working system. The msg quoted below from June 1 was the last I heard. It would be interesting to learn if I did a mistake or if you managed to reproduce my problem.
The recent mail from Norbert Hartl seems to indicate that it still is a research project just to get started. I still believe SPOON can be a very useful foundation for my work, but I do not have the capacity to become a SPOON co-developer. So I have better continue the alternative activities I started in June and return to SPOON later.
Cheers --Trygve

Same for me. I'm really interested in using spoon. But as long as I'm not capable of starting the most basic image and load a module and do something with it I can't solve the problems on my own.
I can assist to develop a way of starting the image for linux platforms. That was the reason I traced some stuff and wrote together what I've done. Btw. the things I wrote should be the same for BSD and so also for Mac OS.

I offer my apologies. I have been busy pursuing paid work (which I still seek).

Yes, I have been able to reproduce your problem, but have not yet fixed it. It seems to be something platform-dependent. Again, I offer my apologies.

Well, the system is marked as alpha software. I'd hoped that would be a sufficient cue, but I'm willing to say more by way of warning too.

I understand. Thanks very much for your help with it so far!

I'm working on it now. I also appreciate the feedback you've given, too.
thanks again!
