Hello,
On the Pharo Jenkins server [1] there is a recent build of a VM with NativeBoost support for the Mac. But the Unix version is six months old and there is no Windows version.
The Unix one was not built because i forgot to set the upstream project, :) so build doesn't triggers when everything else builds. The Windows one, i was built manually on my machine, because we were lacking windows slave for jenkins. You can download windows VM from nativeboost project downloads page: http://code.google.com/p/nativeboost/downloads/list I'm not happy with VM i built (Cog + NativeBoost Win32 Binaries (7 Feb, 2012) ). I built the threaded VM, and besides the warning which pops up every time you launch it, i had couple crashes when simply loading MC packages. I am still not sure what happens, and need to investigate, because the other VM i built recently on another windows machine (by installing everything from scratch) behaves quite stable.
Is this just a Jenkins issue and is NativeBoost working on Unix and Windows? Or are these platforms not working yet?
Everything is working. It is just jenkins. I hope in following few days, after we deal with weird free space issues on jenkins, we can finally set up windows builds for vanilla vms as well as for nativeboost.
Jan.
