I never understood TDD as "I develop, > YOU test" type of development. Thanks for clarifying. :) I would say something like "the pharo community develop AND test" I don't know who has implemented this Time Profiler. Now we can USE it for real, report and someone else can fix it and improve it. This is how it works no ? How can we ask newbies to contribute if this is not the case ? How can we make the pharo community grow ?

Great! please remove schedule for the task Pharo Kernel Reload. It is set to build it every two hours now (we tried to set it with Igor to check timeout problems).

Not really. When you pay a person for 3 months of work you cannot ask him to work for a year slowler. We payed benjamin for a couple of months and after we can just be happy that he is doing post actions especially when the semester will restart it will be more difficult. > Regarding the problem with the Time Profile, I see a patch from Bert, > but upgrading my image just broke, so I can't test it for now.

Re: [Pharo-project] help needed with the new FFI plugin...

by Norbert Hartl

Great! Thanks, Eliot! That could change a lot of things. Norbert Am 22.07.2011 um 01:34 schrieb Eliot Miranda: > Hi All, > > today I committed the threaded FFI plugin along with the threaded VM and hope to be able to support people in doing threaded FFI work on the x86 platforms really soon now (Esteban, amongst others, this means you ;) ). But to put the image-level code that uses the new FFI plugin into production the standard VM needs to be upgraded to not crash with the ExternalFunction image changes the new threaded FFI plugin wants. The main change is that ExternalFunction changes size, gaining a stackSize inst var which is used to tell the FFI plugin how much stack spacer to reserve for marshalling (its computed on first use). The best way for this to happen is to start using the ThreadedFFIPlugin as the standard plugin in the Interpreter VM. The ThreadedFFIPlugin overall is simpler than the old FFI plugin (no assembler support code) and better (fully reentrant). But for this to happen we may need to implement the platform=specific parts of the ThreadedFFIPlugin (still entirely Smalltalk code) for PowerPC and ARM (and perhaps others, SPARC??). I understand what has to be done and I can explain it to anyone interested in working on the problem, but I don't have any hardware with which I can test the results so its pretty pointless my doing the work and producing something inevitably broken. So are there people out there who would be interested in doing the port to PPC and ARM?
