Yes, you can use SqueakDBX for that. If you use Linux or Mac it is very easy to do it. If it is Windows, it is a bit tricky, but it works. If you want to use SqueakDBX you should read our last announcement: http://www.nabble.com/-ANN----SqueakDBX-first-stable-version-1.0!!!-td23144… Cheers, Mariano > > > Hilaire > > > > -- > > http://blog.ofset.org/hilaire > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Pharo-project mailing list > > Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr > > http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project > > > > > > -- > Best regards, > Igor Stasenko AKA sig. > > _______________________________________________ > Pharo-project mailing list > Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr > http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project >

[Pharo-project] Closure VM confusion

by Torsten Bergmann

>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.

AFAIK the Windows VM doesn't have closure support yet, right? you need a VM with closure support to use recent Pharo images. All VMs refered to in the following page support closures: http://pharo-project.org/download -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st

[Pharo-project] Closure VM confusion

by Michael Rueger

Hi all, a little bit embarassing but I'm currently confused about the closure support and VMs. Having an image with closure support needs a VM with closure support? Yes, no? AFAIK the Windows VM doesn't have closure support yet, right? Confused Michael

Under Ubuntu 9.04, Exupery VM 3.10-3 , Pharo crashes while saving a package on local package cache with Monticello. Same image, ok with windows in virtualbox. It was ok with my previous Ubuntu 8.10.
