[Pharo-project] [ANN] Win32 VM 4.0.1 for Pharo
by Torsten Bergmann March 31, 2010

March 31, 2010

The new windows VM 4.0.1 from Squeak [1] is rebranded for Pharo and available on the download page [2]. You can access it directly via [3] or compile it yourself using the adapted sources [4]. As soon as an RC4 of the dev-image is available I will also create a new installer with it. Bye T.

Looks like I missed to rebuild the setup at the beginning of march for RC3. However, here it is [1] bundled with the new 4.0.1 VM [2]. It is also up on the download page [3]. Any plan/timeframe for an RC4? Bye T.

Re: [Pharo-project] [Pharo-users] Are there Chi-Square, Power, Normal, Binomial, Uniform, Student's-T etc distributions ?

Thanks Have a look in the "Chapter 21: Probability Distributions" of "Smalltalk-80: The Language and its Implementation By Adele Goldberg and DavidRobson; Xerox Palo Alto Research Center ISBN 0-201-11371-6. 344 pp. 1983" (http://stephane.ducasse.free.fr/FreeBooks.html) I am sure that you can find a file-out of the code described in the book with Google. I remember having it packaged up with Monticello some time ago, but can't find it right now.

Hi, Finally I've managed to build squeak vm rev. 2135 (current stable) with FT2Plugin which makes all tests green on Pharo 1.0 rc3 image........ on my machine :) If some Linux users can test it on their distro, thanks.

[Pharo-project] Mac Carbon VM 4.2.3b1 sound recording busted
by John M McIntosh March 31, 2010

March 31, 2010

>Mac Carbon VM 4.2.3b1 sound recording busted Must always remember to test (lot more) things after applying VMMaker changes. I'll have a 4.2.4b1 VM in a few days after some dust settles. But for now if you hit the SoundRecorder record button in your squeak.image it will crash. -- =========================================================================== John M.

I'm available for consultation with whoever is implementing it. The key seems to me to begin with the goal--a more fluid programming experience--and work backwards to measures that approximate "fluidity" and a way of rapidly experimenting and getting getting concrete feedback. > > Cheers, > > Kent > > On Mar 30, 2010, at 12:29 PM, StÃ©phane Ducasse wrote: > >>> >>> That's one of the deep lessons of software development--the tortoise beats the hare.

[Pharo-project] The Windows VM
by Torsten Bergmann March 30, 2010

March 30, 2010

>No, I don't think so. I don't know who did it I did it and will redo a new one based on the new 4.0 hopefully this week to create a new installer. Is the new 1.0 dev-image already in place? However - the changes from Andreas should only affect Squeak and there should also be no problem in still using the 3.11.8.
