[Vm-dev] VM Maker: VMMaker.oscog-eem.662.mcz

[gettimothy]

Thanks Dave.

What is the path of code..starting from Eliot uploads an update to Cog or VMMaker.oscog.

Does it look like this: Eliot->source.squeak.org/VMMaker->Jenkins->SVN

Or is it something else?

More importantly, is there someplace where this is documented?

thx

The InterpreterVM and CogVM jobs that run on build.squeak.org are jobs that test 
the overall process of loading VMMaker and various related packages needed for 
generation of VM sources from Smalltalk source code (aka "slang"). The intent is 
to verify that the source packages are loadable into a clean Squeak image, and 
that they produce a coherent set of generated sources that can be used (along with 
the platform sources that are managed in Subversion) to compile a working VM. 
 
It is necessary to run the compile step in order to ensure that the sources are 
really in good shape. For example, the compile step recently detected a couple 
of missing methods (the same ones that you had identified earlier by the way) 
in the oscog VMMaker package. 
 
Assuming that the compile step is successful, the sources are assumed to be in good 
shape, and the resulting source code is saved as the outcome of the Jenkins test.
