[Pharo-project] Thanks for all the progress in VM
by Mariano Martinez Peck March 16, 2011

March 16, 2011

I am happy. I just wanted to thanks Igor, Esteban, Eliot, David, INRIA, and anyone involved with the progress in VM side. Today, in less than 1 hour, I could modify the method lookup to add support for proxies, compiled the stack vm and run it. Of course, it was not working, so I needed to debug. But I like debugging with XCode, not gdb directly. So, what I did? cmake -G Xcode (Esteban suggestion). and I was debugging with XCode. Summary: I could do all that in 1 hour. Thanks a lot. Mariano

[Pharo-project] What a mess
by Torsten Bergmann March 16, 2011

March 16, 2011

Looks like you run into the same problem as Tudor: If you want to give an absolute path you have to use the file protocol since otherwise it is interpreted as a relative path due to some changes to support relative paths (I think that was done for coral). A detailed example is explained in my second post on: http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3595 Hope this info helps moving forward.

[Pharo-project] Jtalk, a Smalltalk for web developers
by Torsten Bergmann March 16, 2011

March 16, 2011

... so this is a Smalltalk on top of JavaScript in a browser. Since one can run JavaScript easily on top of Javas JVM by using Mozillas Rhino (a simple JAR to run JS in a Java app) you should be able to bootstrap JTalk on a java virtual machine too. Performance would be horrible, I guess ... but it would be a fun project to play with. mumble, mumble .... Bye T. -- Schon gehÃ¶rt?

[Pharo-project] PBenchmark as a general framework for benchmarking in Smalltalk (commit access)
by Stefan Marr March 15, 2011

March 15, 2011

Hi: For the others, I am currently adapting the benchmarking infrastructure used for Pinocchio to be a bit more general, and enable me to integrate our RoarVM benchmarking tools. The goal is to have a framework that allows all kind of benchmarking, written like unit tests. One other idea Henrik was interested in is to be able to easily compare the benchmark results of different versions of method-implementations, to see whether optimizations were successful. Camillo, even so I don't have a working version yet, I was trying to commit my refactoring (perhaps for review). However, the PinocchioVM project seems to be 'global readonly'. Would it be better to make it a stand-alone project? When we go with that step, as already mentioned, I would like to rename it. PBenchmark is a name that might prevent adoption. Not that I would like to go into politics here, but perhaps we can consider a new name. Since the general idea is to write benchmarks like unit tests, how about 'SMark'/'SBench' instead of 'SUnit'? Best regards Stefan PS: One thing, we might want to use as a source of inspiration in the future is: http://code.google.com/p/caliper/ Thats a microbenchmark framework for Java, also using the unit-testing metaphor. There @Param is also neat (http://code.google.com/p/caliper/source/browse/trunk/examples/src/main/java…) and allows to encode input sizes for which the benchmarks should be executed. That is something I am not to interested in, but in case the framework finds adoption that might be something to keep in mind. -- Stefan Marr Software Languages Lab Vrije Universiteit Brussel Pleinlaan 2 / B-1050 Brussels / Belgium http://soft.vub.ac.be/~smarr Phone: +32 2 629 2974 Fax: +32 2 629 3525
