Yes, it works! if i open image like that: ./results/NBCog.app/Contents/MacOS/NBCog ./image/generator.image ; echo $? and then do: Smalltalk quitPrimitive: 10 it prints: 10 On 25 November 2011 17:01, StÃ©phane Ducasse <stephane.ducasse(a)inria.fr> wrote: > in the bug tracker please :) > > > On Nov 25, 2011, at 4:59 PM, Igor Stasenko wrote: > >> There is already support for that in platform-specific code. >> The function is >> sqInt ioExitWithErrorCode(int); >> >> >> so, the only thing which we need is to change the #primitiveQuit >> >> to see if there an extra argument to it, >> and then call >> that function instead of ioExit >> >> looks like easy to do. >> >> Btw, actually Cog VMs already doing that: >> >> primitiveQuit >> >> Â Â Â self ioExitWithErrorCode: (argumentCount = 1 ifTrue: [objectMemory >> integerValueOf: self stackTop] ifFalse: [0]) >> >> so.. you need only 1 thing: >> >> add one more method to Smalltalk: >> >> quitPrimitive: exitCode >> Â Â Â "Primitive.

I think I found something else that might be helpful, but I have not yet worked it out fully. Basically using the #stdout stream in 1.3 it is very easy to generate ouput (this is really a very cool feature!). This script will produce either 'OK' or 'FAILED' depending on the #signalling (and produce a PharoDebug.log file as well): FileStream stdout wantsLineEndConversion: true. [ Error signal: 'Something went terribly wrong'. FileStream stdout nextPutAll: 'OK'; cr. ] on: Error do: [ :exception | Smalltalk logError: exception description inContext: exception signalerContext. FileStream stdout nextPutAll: 'FAILED'; cr. ]. Smalltalk snapshot: false andQuit: true. The problem with this technique is that you cannot use stdout for anything else. Sven

Re: [Pharo-project] VM Exit Value

by Igor Stasenko

There is already support for that in platform-specific code. The function is sqInt ioExitWithErrorCode(int); so, the only thing which we need is to change the #primitiveQuit to see if there an extra argument to it, and then call that function instead of ioExit looks like easy to do. Btw, actually Cog VMs already doing that: primitiveQuit self ioExitWithErrorCode: (argumentCount = 1 ifTrue: [objectMemory integerValueOf: self stackTop] ifFalse: [0]) so.. you need only 1 thing: add one more method to Smalltalk: quitPrimitive: exitCode "Primitive. Exit to another operating system on the host machine, if one exists. All state changes in the object space since the last snapshot are lost. Essential. See Object documentation whatIsAPrimitive." <primitive: 113> self primitiveFailed so you can use it right now. -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko.

Re: [Pharo-project] deprecated: in Deprecated14

I think the idea was to deprecate deprecated: so people use the one with more infos... (deprecated:on:in:) But for small external projects, deprecated: is just fine and there are users.
