Hi. On an Intel Mac running Mac OS X 10.6.8, I followed the instructions to install a NativeBoost VM found here: http://code.google.com/p/nativeboost/wiki/Installation. I downloaded the latest Mac NBCog VM, and ran into an error after evaluating NBInstaller install.
I'm using the 4.3alpha-11636.image file. The 4.2 image gives a different set of errors but also wont install:
The progress bar window says: Compiling NativeBoost-Core-IgorStasenko.36
The window title is "Syntax error" with a split text field. The top field contains: nbExternalStructure Fields parsing spec parseFields:byte
The bottom field has a red error message embedded in this line:
stream peek == #Invalid literal character ->; ifTrue: [ stream next ]. ].
Help?
I didn't tested an installation in squeak 4.2 images. It looks like there is a change in parser which don't likes the following syntax:
#( a; b ; c)
imo, this is correct syntax. a ';' should be converted to #; symbol.
