[Pharo-project] newProcessWith: anArray ??? missing on BlockClosure?
by StÃ©phane Ducasse April 27, 2009

April 27, 2009

Apparently there is BlockContext>>newProcessWith: anArray "Answer a Process running the code in the receiver. The receiver's block arguments are bound to the contents of the argument, anArray. The process is not scheduled." <primitive: 19> "Simulation guard" ^Process forContext: [self valueWithArguments: anArray. Processor terminateActive] asContext priority: Processor activePriority but no equivalent for Closure. Is is normal? Stef

>Having an image with closure support needs a VM with closure support? yes >The Windows VM doesn't have closure support yet, right? No. Closures are already implemented in the official standard windows Squeak VM in 3.11.1 (see [1]) and there is now also a newer windows VM version from Andreas 3.11.2 (see [2]) also available on the pharo download page.
