Mac VM source code (Croquet crash)John M McIntosh johnmci at smalltalkconsulting.comThu Jun 16 18:47:02 UTC 2005
This is a known problem, I thought I had pushed the fix out,
apparently not, sorry.
I will build a 3.8.8b3 VM and distribute later tonight.
For the source code.
A. Visit http://subversion.tigris.org/ to understand SVN, and
I suspect install SVN on your machine.
You should visit
http://www.lachoseinteractive.net/en/community/
subversion/svnx/download/
to get the client gui &
http://homepage.mac.com/martinott/
to get the SVN binaries
Checkout a working copy of the squeak/trunk, either via the
GUI tool, or from a terminal session go to the directory
you want to build in, then enter svn co http://
squeak.hpl.hp.com/svn/squeak/trunk svnSqueakTree
The follow the readme in the the 'mac os' tree developer
documentation folder.
This should allow you to build a 3.8.8b3 mac carbon VM.
