[Pharo-project] PharoCore 1.1 comments
Hi all, some things I noticed in PharoCore 1.1 release: - This PharoCore-1.1.zip doesn't include a sources file. It was good to have it included in the zip as before. Can be included for every PharoCore release? - The page says that PharoV10.sources is for use with 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2. Shouldn't be better to have a different one for each release? (even if 1.1 is a copy of 1.0, the different name avoids doubts about numbering scheme): PharoCore-1.0.image PharoCore-1.0.changes PharoV10.sources PharoCore-1.1.image PharoCore-1.1.changes PharoV10.sources (???) ... PharoCore-1.7.image PharoCore-1.7.changes PharoV10.sources (bigger ???) Just a suggestion. ;) - SystemVersion current majorMinorVersion prints: PharoCore 1.0: 'PharoCore1.0' PharoCore 1.1: 'Pharo1.1' Maybe this should be in the script preparing the image so that correctly set the version string for PharoCore images and for Pharo images (or maybe already is there but wasn't executed?) Other than that, the new image is *very* fast! Cheers -- Miguel Cobá http://miguel.leugim.com.mx

the version object has been downgraded again. the version string needs to be nil and it keeps on getting broken. I will deprecate the mechanism once i recheck the package issues. Normally, you just set #type to make the images different. thanks, Mike

We did a lot of cleans. Now it should be clear that we benefitted from the work done in Squeak by levente, nicolas and a couple of others. Now this is not easy to follow what exactly can benefit to pharo and they were supportive. Now people can help at this level, comparing behavior, methods.... Finally we do not want to give the impression that we are stealing from Squeak - I think that Squeak can also learn from Pharo. Our goal is to make a really cool Smalltalk system. There are still a lot of work to be done. Stef

Hi all,

I agree. The release SHOULD include the .sources. Not every pharo core release because it is too much...but official releases may have also the .sources. Maybe we can repackage and upload a newone? marcus?
- The page says that PharoV10.sources is for use with 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2. Shouldn't be better to have a different one for each release? (even if 1.1 is a copy of 1.0, the different name avoids doubts about numbering scheme):

...
PharoCore-1.7.image PharoCore-1.7.changes PharoV10.sources (bigger ???)
Just a suggestion. ;)
