[Pharo-project] The Windows VM
by Mariano Martinez Peck March 30, 2010

March 30, 2010

Hi. I have just tested the Windows VM availables and tested the 1 tinyBenchmarks and running all tests of PharoDev RC3. I tested with this Windows VMs: 1) The one that it is in pharo website (PharoVM-Win32-3.11.8): 2) The other one from pharo website (exupery-vm-0.15-win32): 3) THe new one that Andreas released today (SqueakVM-Win32-4.0.1-bin) 1) vm\SqueakVM-Win32-4.0.1-bin\ has freetype 1 tinyBenchmarks '404104183 bytecodes/sec; 11914092 sends/sec' '363120567 bytecodes/sec; 10946039 sends/sec' '390839694 bytecodes/sec; 12597221 sends/sec' '346179851 bytecodes/sec; 9996295 sends/sec' 1 gofer test fails 2) exupery-vm-0.15-win32 doesnt have freetype. Unacceptable for Pharo. 1 tinyBenchmarks '365714285 bytecodes/sec; 9935342 sends/sec' '365975696 bytecodes/sec; 10435290 sends/sec' '349011588 bytecodes/sec; 16777208 sends/sec' '339973439 bytecodes/sec; 11292844 sends/sec' Two RB test with errors 3) SqueakVM-Win32-4.0.1-bin has freetype 1 tinyBenchmarks '353835521 bytecodes/sec; 11294326 sends/sec' '415922014 bytecodes/sec; 12319712 sends/sec' '369675090 bytecodes/sec; 11149338 sends/sec' '373177842 bytecodes/sec; 9858402 sends/sec' all tests geen We suggestion is to remove the Exupery Vm from the pharo website. The new version 4.1 doesn't seem to be improvements in speed and from what I read about Andreas comment, it only fixes problems for SqueakMap, which was removed in Pharo, and a change in the close event of the windows. I would only let for download the PharoVM-Win32-3.11.8 Cheers Mariano

[Pharo-project] Error parsing XML File
by Fabrizio Perin March 29, 2010

March 29, 2010

Hi, I was parsing an XML File with the last version of XML Parser (XML-Parser-JAAyer.68) and i get an error related to a not UTF-8 character that the parser found into the document. The XML document contains some german character: <![CDATA[SES: Bean BLABLABLA EidgenÃ¶ssisches Institut fÃ¼r BLABLALBLA]]> Actually i'm not sure if the error is which is in the UTF8TextConverter or something is wrong in the invokation from the parser. Anyway i parse several time the same document with older versions of the XML-Parser (XML-Parser-JAAyer.57) and it always works well. I'm not sure if the mailing list of Pharo is the right place to report this problem in the case i'm i'm sorry. Here the trace from the log: Error: Invalid utf8 input detected 26 March 2010 4:14:07 pm VM: Mac OS - intel - 1062 - Squeak3.8.1 of '28 Aug 2006' [latest update: #6747] Squeak VM 4.2.2b1 Image: Pharo-1.0-10515-rc3 [Latest update: #10515] SecurityManager state: Restricted: false FileAccess: true SocketAccess: true Working Dir /Users/fabrizioperin/development/Pharo/WORKINGONNOW/MooseJEE_64 Trusted Dir /foobar/tooBar/forSqueak/bogus Untrusted Dir /Users/fabrizioperin/Library/Preferences/Squeak/Internet/My Squeak UTF8TextConverter(Object)>>error: Receiver: an UTF8TextConverter Arguments and temporary variables: aString: 'Invalid utf8 input detected' Receiver's instance variables: an UTF8TextConverter UTF8TextConverter>>errorMalformedInput Receiver: an UTF8TextConverter Arguments and temporary variables: Receiver's instance variables: an UTF8TextConverter UTF8TextConverter>>nextFromStream: Receiver: an UTF8TextConverter Arguments and temporary variables: aStream: MultiByteFileStream: '/Users/fabrizioperin/development/Pharo/WORKINGON...etc... character1: $Â¶ value1: 182 character2: $s value2: 115 unicode: nil character3: $s value3: 115 character4: nil value4: nil Receiver's instance variables: an UTF8TextConverter MultiByteFileStream>>next Receiver: MultiByteFileStream: '/Users/fabrizioperin/development/Pharo/WORKINGONNOW/MooseJEE_64/src/...etc...
