jenkins running temporarily EC2
by Camillo Bruni June 9, 2013

June 9, 2013

I added an emergency EC2 instance to our jenkins (and connected the mac slave via the EC2 instance) that way we have an short term emergency solution up and running. I will switch back everything once the network problem at ci.inria.fr are fixed.

Re: [Pharo-dev] Necessity of TDD with Smalltalk

We've shown it at a devnology user group meeting in March. If anyone is interested in doing a presentation to their local (non-smalltalk) user group, just let me know. >1.

While writing the application code, you often notice the name of the test method is not right. Not being able to fix that in the debugger is one of the annoying things why "smalltalk environments are not TDD oriented" (Even though they are much better than other environments for TDD). Another is lack of browser support for long method names. Tests tend to have (very) long names Stephan

Fwd: new Cog VMs available
by Eliot Miranda June 7, 2013

June 7, 2013

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Eliot Miranda <eliot.miranda(a)gmail.com> Date: Fri, Jun 7, 2013 at 8:20 AM Subject: new Cog VMs available To: Squeak Virtual Machine Development Discussion < vm-dev(a)lists.squeakfoundation.org> Cc: The general-purpose Squeak developers list < squeak-dev(a)lists.squeakfoundation.org>, Pharo Development < pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr> CogVM source as per VMMaker.oscog-eem.296/r2732. Make the Production/Debug/Assert distinction static so one can find it with strings - vm. Add an ident for the ITIMER_HEARTBEAT linux VMs. Fix bug in eden filling/object overwrite checking. must use unsigned vars in the fill loop. Add a plugin to support the VMProfiler on linux (now Steve Rees has told us how to get proper thread priorities on newer linuxes). Replace broken primitiveUtcWithOffset with a version that works. Cast primitiveUtcWithOffset in terms of a new ioLocalSecondsOffset. Add stricter checking code to OSProcessPlugins. Add SqueakSSL plugin to nsvm plugins. Change -version output to print if a Production, Debug or Assert VM. Add some error checking to the UnixOSProcessPlugin's forkAndExecInDirectory prim. Eliminate some compiler warnings in the plugin. Eliminate some excessive use of push/popRemappableOop[:] in the SocketPlugin. Fix numberic option parsing in sqSocketSetOptions... (quite possibly the longest C function name I've ever seen). The old code only supported 1-digit length values, so setsockopt(SO_SNDBUF, 4096 didn't do what was expected at all (attempted to set the buffer size to 909717556, which is little-endian ascii for '4096', '4096' asByteArray unsignedLongAt: 1 => 909717556). Occasionally bizarre interactions cause the heartbeat's interval timer to disable. e.g. on CentOS linux when using PAM to authenticate, a failing authen- tication sequence disables the interval timer, for reasons unknown (setting a breakpoint in setitimer doesn't show an actual call). So a work around is to check the timer as a side-effect of ioRelinquishProcessorForMicroseconds. Add Callback LIFO ordering support to the new-style Callback return primitives to the IA32ABI Aline plugins. Fix some compiler warnings there-in. Improve the debug message printing in sqUnixExternalPrims.c so it prints line numbers. -- best, Eliot -- best, Eliot

The interrupt semaphore

We are not using it? Why interruption is made by the event fetcher process? Guille
