Hello Igor!
Thank you for the patch, it has helped and now it looks like the Alien
is loaded... But.
When I'm sending an #asAlien message to a simple string, e.g.
'xmessage something' asAlien
The executions fails with the primitiveFailed exception here:
Alien >> sizeFieldPut: size "<Integer> ^<Integer>"
<primitive: 'primSizeFieldPut' error: errorCode module: 'IA32ABI'>
^self primitiveFailed
I assume that the Alien-Core package was not loaded properly. What am
I doing wrong?
