I downloaded the pre-built BC image and changes from the Swiki at:
http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/2119
and filed in the last-minute fix:
http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/uploads/2119/BCDebugSelectionFix-ajh.1.cs
Unfortunately the debugger still doesn't appear to be working
correctly with halt.
try: 5 halt factorial.
In the debugger UndefinedObject>>DoIt holds:
ERROR "getting sourceCode: UndefinedObject class errorNoDecompilerYet?"
What updates do I need to file in to bring the BC image up to date?
I read the following from the archives:
RE: Updating BC to 3.3alpha (was: [BC][FIX] Block Closures, Version 2 Fix)

I performed the following:
SystemVersion current
version: 'Squeak3.3alpha';
highestUpdate: 4653;
updates removeAllSuchThat: [:each | each > 4653].
all _ ChangeSorter allChangeSets.
(ChangeSorter changeSetsNamedSuchThat:
[:name | name first isDigit and: [name initialIntegerOrNil > 4653]])
do: [:cs | all remove: cs wither].
Utilities readServerUpdatesThrough: 4716 saveLocally: true updateImage: true.
But Squeak returns a notification saying that there are no updates to
be filled in.
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Maurice
BTW, The BC VM is quite zippy, and the IR parser stuff is really nice!
