Hi Dimitri,

I think image segments are supported in same way in Pharo but I'm not sure.

ImageSegments are in 1.3, but we removed them in 1.4. But Projects are not working in Pharo since 1.0.

About Fuel, it is in active development. It currently works and has several release versions but it doesn't replace completely ImageSegment. Hopefully we might be capable of doing that in some months... at the moment you can find some limitations, especially if you were using DiskProxy (do you?).

There is more info, including how to install and try it, here: http://rmod.lille.inria.fr/web/pier/software/Fuel

Cheers, Martín

The application I am working on (which currently runs under Squeak VM on Android) will be migrated to Pharo. The current version heavily relies upon use of image segments (projects) which provides a simple (though slow) way to save/restore the application data not touching the image (the Squeak port is unable to save images anyway, Cog can do this, but I'd rater not touch the image) with versioning.

Are image segments supported in Pharo Core same way? I saw a message about stopping the support of image segments in future versions of Pharo in favor of Fuel. What is current status of Fuel development? Is it usable?

Thanks.
