[Pharo-project] How-to load Alien FFI on Pharo?

Sept. 25, 2009

      Hi,

I saw a lot of discussions about Alien FFI 2 weeks ago. I still can't
load it on Pharo because of the following syntax error:

Ccalloc: byteSize "<Integer> ^<Integer>"
	<primitive: 'primCalloc' error: Literal constant expected ->errorCode
module: 'IA32ABI'>
	^self primitiveFailed

Can one of you help me load it? I would like to work on CairoGraphics
(http://www.squeaksource.com/CairoGraphics.html) but this requires
Alien.

I used:

ScriptLoader loadLatestPackage: 'AlienLoader' from:
'http://www.squeaksource.com/Alien'.
(Smalltalk at: #AlienLoader) load

Thank you
