[Pharo-project] [DEBIAN] latest standard vm package

by Alexander LazareviÄ

Hi! FWIW, I've built a new VM on my machine with the latest sources and latest VMMaker updates (for a standard VM). Thanks Dave for your help on this. As a result here is a debian package from this just in case anyone on Ubuntu or Debian wants to sneak a peek. http://www.lazarevic.de/download/squeak/squeak-vm_4.3.15.2330-1_i386.deb I used the package from the debian and just replaced the sources. I disabled my unfortunate patch for the sources path (this should be removed for good) and had to disable the patch for the browser plugin. So there is no guaranty for nothing on this package and the squeakvm it contains. These are the included vm plugins: "Internal Plugins" "External Plugins" ADPCMCodecPlugin B3DAcceleratorPlugin AsynchFilePlugin B3DEnginePlugin BMPReadWriterPlugin FFIPlugin BalloonEnginePlugin FT2Plugin BitBltSimulation FileCopyPlugin CroquetPlugin HostWindowPlugin DSAPlugin MIDIPlugin DeflatePlugin Mpeg3Plugin DropPlugin UnixAioPlugin FFTPlugin UnixOSProcessPlugin FilePlugin XDisplayControlPlugin FloatArrayPlugin FloatMathPlugin GeniePlugin JPEGReadWriter2Plugin JPEGReaderPlugin JoystickTabletPlugin KlattSynthesizerPlugin LargeIntegersPlugin LocalePlugin Matrix2x3Plugin MiscPrimitivePlugin NewsqueakIA32ABIPlugin RePlugin SecurityPlugin SerialPlugin SlangTestSupportPlugin SocketPlugin SoundCodecPlugin SoundGenerationPlugin SoundPlugin StarSqueakPlugin SurfacePlugin UUIDPlugin Alex

[Pharo-project] Process-specific state broken and uncomplete

by Igor Stasenko

Hello, i just found that Squeak images Process class contains unused ivars: island env in Pharo image, env ivar is used for holding a process-specific state, which is convenient, so one could use: Processor activeProcess environmentAt: put:... but in Squeak image there is even no such methods. There are also some caveats with such thing: during process termination, Processor activeProcess could point to different process, and so, accessing to process environment may lead to error(s). To avoid issues like these, the process termination action (stack unwinding) should be always performed only for active process. One of a trick i think, is to replace the suspendedContext with own context, and then activate given process in order to unwind its stack etc. Another way is to remember environment somewhere else during process termination, and use different method to access it i.e. instead of: Processor activeProcess environmentAt: use self processEnvironmentAt: where #processEnvironmentAt: is implemented in Object class, and can handle termination gracefully. But i think replacing suspendedContext is more generic. What you think? -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig.
