[Pharo-project] [ANN] Pharo Windows VM 4.0.2
by Torsten Bergmann April 12, 2010

April 12, 2010

There is a new 4.0.2 Pharo VM for Windows available (see [1]) based on the same Squeak VM release. If you want to build it yourself just use [2]. There was no official announcement from Andreas on 4.0.2 on vm-dev list but according to the logs ([3]) sound recording should work again with this release. Note that the 4.0x VM's redirect the window close event to the image (see discussion in [4]) Therefore this 4.0.2 VM is mainly useful for people who base their work on Pharo 1.1. Core Alpha (as of today image nr #11312) since the Pharo 1.1 image already includes the support to handle the window close event directly from within the image. When you want to use Pharo core 1.0 (currently image #10517) with this VM you have to use SHIFT+ALT+F4 to close the image. Therefor it is better to use 3.11.8 VM (see 5) with the 1.0 images. Bye T.

[Pharo-project] BrowserEnvironment>>forPackages: aCollection
by Fernando olivero April 12, 2010

April 12, 2010

Lukas, i've noticed that PackageEnvironment instance variable packages is an ordered collection. Could we make it a Set, so when iterating we reduce iterating the same packages twice, Of course just in case a duplicated package was passed as an argument ( which was my case!!!!) Which leads to iterate possibly multiple times through the classes of packages, which significantly increases time to run when using the whole system. Fernando

[Pharo-project] WeakSet but no WeakIdentitySet?
by Igor Stasenko April 11, 2010

April 11, 2010

Hello, i need to keep a bunch of CompiledMethods in WeakSet, but i am a bit afraid, that it wont work as i want to, because of CompiledMethod>>= implementation, because a code, which i currently writing doesn't changing a method's bytecode, but changing its trailer instead, and so, this could lead to undesirable effects.. If i could have a WeakIdentitySet... Meanwhile, i think i have nothing else, but just use a degenerate WeakIdentityKeyDictionary , with methods in keys and nils in values. :( -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig.

[Pharo-project] About getting HashedCollection (another dream happening)
by stephane ducasse April 11, 2010

April 11, 2010

Hi levente and others I always wanted to have Dictionary not be a subclass of Set and you did it. Now when you introduced that in Squeak, we were busy. But now I'm so found of this change (like other Smalltalk -> SmalltalkImage current --- which we stopped in the middle because lack of momentum and mindsharing) that I would like to integrate it into Pharo. Do you have any specific recommandations (like not shooting in our own foot)? Stef

[Pharo-project] VM team update
by David T. Lewis April 11, 2010

April 11, 2010

Folks, We are in the midst of a flurry of activity to update the virtual machines for Mac, Windows and Unix in support of upcoming Squeak and Pharo releases. These VMs all will include Eliot Miranda's block closure support, as well as a large number of updates, bug fixes, and enhancements. There have been many significant updates to all of the major platforms, and I will not attempt to do justice to all of these. That said, the revision logs for the VMMaker package provide an overview of many of the changes, so I am attaching an update log below. It is worth noting here that John McIntosh has announced a new code base for Mac VMs (in addition to his iPhone VM work) with expanded 64-bit support. This will be the basis for future Mac VM releases following the current round of updates. Following is a change log of the VMMaker package updates, starting with current version, and going back to the introduction of block closure support in early 2009. - Dave ------- Name: VMMaker-dtl.169 Author: dtl Time: 10 April 2010, 3:43:27.612 pm Ancestors: VMMaker-ar.168 VMMaker 4.0.3 Add version identification primitives - primitiveInterpreterSourceVersion answers the version of VMMaker that was used to generate the VM source code. This is a string like '4.0.3'. - primitivePlatformSourceVersion answers the Subversion version level if $PLATFORM_SOURCE_VERSION has been defined, or fails otherwise. This should be a string like '2172'. - primitiveVMVersion answers an identifier for the VM version (VMMaker plus Subversion) if $VM_VERSION is defined, or fails otherwise. For the Unix VMs, this is a string like '4.0.3-2172'. - primitiveImageFormatVersion answers an integer identifier for the image format. This is the number that is stored in the image file header to identify image fomat (32/64 bit word size, block closure support). Rename some code generation methods from #writeXXX to #emitXXX for consistency with other method naming. Fix VMMaker file list processing to ignore Subversion administrative files (previously only CVS files were ignored). ------- Name: VMMaker-ar.168 Author: ar Time: 31 March 2010, 9:46:52 am Ancestors: VMMaker-ar.167 Bump VMMaker version to 4.0.2. ------- Name: VMMaker-ar.167 Author: ar Time: 31 March 2010, 9:44:42 am Ancestors: VMMaker-JMM.166 Fix SoundPlugin>>primSoundRecordSamplesInto again.

This change set adds checks for arithmetic overflow in calculation of size requests, and limits the maximum size of a #growObjectMemory request to 16r7FFFFFFF to permit use of signed 32-bit integer arithmetic in the support code. Also included are some variable type declarations and removal of a now unnecessary #oop:isLessThan: call. There may be additional bugs in the support code, which is expected to fail gracefully even if someone requests an object memory size increase of 16r80000000 or more. In testing on a Linux VM, allocation of objects of size greater than 950MB appears to be possible, given enough physical memory to permit the allocation to succeed.

If the 64-bit FFI changes for M7237 are also applied, then the FFITestCase tests in M6987 are all green for 64-bit host and 64-bit image. ------- Name: VMMaker-dtl.119 Author: dtl Time: 1 April 2009, 10:45:59 pm Ancestors: VMMaker-ar.118 VMMaker 3.10.2 Reference Mantis 0007327: Bug in BitBlt: rgbMin and other set alpha to 0 Fix provided by Juan Vuletich (jmv) http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/vm-dev/2009-March/002473.html.

Changes are: - Change #primitiveDoNamedPrimitiveWithArgs to use #var:declareC: rather than pragma. - Remove unreference instance variables in Interpreter. - Reorganize method categories in Interpreter (hopefully as per eem intent). - Restore ordering of class vars in various classes (inadvertently reordered by Montecello). - Update versionString to '3.10'. - Fix comment typo in #activateNewClosureMethod: Note: one additional update will follow, to address type cast issue in #pushClosureCopyCopiedValuesBytecode. ------- Name: VMMaker-eem.114 Author: eem Time: 18 February 2009, 5:42:18 pm Ancestors: VMMaker-dtl.113 Closure-enabled Interpreter. Interpreter supports 5 new bytecodes: (138 pushNewArrayBytecode) (140 pushRemoteTempLongBytecode) (141 storeRemoteTempLongBytecode) (142 storeAndPopRemoteTempLongBytecode) (143 pushClosureCopyCopiedValuesBytecode) and loses (138 143 experimentalBytecode) and gains new closure primitives (200 primitiveClosureCopyWithCopiedValues) (201 205 primitiveClosureValue) (206 primitiveClosureValueWithArgs) (210 primitiveAt) "Compatibility with Cog StackInterpreter Context primitives" (211 primitiveAtPut) "Compatibility with Cog StackInterpreter Context primitives" (212 primitiveSize) "Compatibility with Cog StackInterpreter Context primitives" (221 222 primitiveClosureValueNoContextSwitch) 210-212 are needed for eventual StackVM support sice there-in ContextPart must use special at:, at:put: and size primitives for correct hiding of stack frames. Compatibility for images. Interpreter gains inst var imageFormatVersionNumber which is initialized to the standard 6802/68000 value in Interpreter class>>declareCVarsIn:. If the closure creation bytecode 143 is evaluated imageFormatVersionNumber changes to the closure value 6804/68002. Its value is written in snapshots. So if 143 is used the image version stamp changes and if not, it stays the same. imageFormatForwardCompatibilityVersion defines the enw values and is used in readableImage: to load both curfrent and new (closure) format images. VM gains a primitive unrelated to the closure primitives (218 primitiveDoNamedPrimitiveWithArgs) allows the debugger to evaluate external primitives without resorting to the horrible hack of destructively updating a method in ProtoObject (which is non-reentrant and may mean the debugger can't debug itself). c.f. (118 primitiveDoPrimitiveWithArgs). This primitive uses argumentCountOfMethodHeader: primitiveIndexOfMethodHeader: and roomToPushNArgs: which can profitably be used elsewhere. I'll leave this to you. There is also a reorganization; a much saner categorization in Interpreter. I can't code with the essentially random current one. Hence alas many "source same but rev changed".

[Pharo-project] Graphics-MichaelRueger.168....backported normalized transform
by stephane ducasse April 11, 2010

April 11, 2010

Hi apparently mike posted a while ago transform changes. There were unnoticed because buried over a lot of other changes. So mike should I integrate these changes. Even when I use the bug entry I tend to forget my own changes so without bug entry item. the chances are even higher.
