Already knew about Pier CMS as it's used to write the Seaside and Pharo book. Do you have a link for Marina?

Anyway. I look into my code and send it to you. Takes half an hour or so (youâre lucky it is raining outside :) ). I plan to add those features tonight (GMT-3), so there is no rush. I'll try Postmark too. I added enough mess to the DNS records as to have a hell of a time trying to send a simple email :D Thank you!

Re: [Pharo-users] Accessing DLLs in Smalltalk/V

by ClÃ©ment Bera

Hello, To do what you want, there are 3 options: - using NativeBoost - using FFI from the VM - compiling your dll as part of the vm (VM plugin) NativeBoost is clearly the best option because it is the fastest, it is mostly implemented in the image so you can look at the code and it is by default in the image. FFI from the VM typically manages much better callbacks, so if you plan to extensively use callbacks you should look at it, by loading the package of Aliens (It does not rely any more on the old implementation of aliens but still have the same image side API and library). Alternatively you can improve NativeBoost so it manages better call back, this is "easy" as it is mostly implemented in the image. Compiling your dll as a VM plugin is usually not the best option, but it can be useful in some situation (uncommon OS or uncommon hardware for example). I explained how to compile and bind a dll with NativeBoost here (subsection Implementing the FFI calls) : http://clementbera.wordpress.com/2013/06/19/optimizing-pharo-to-c-speed-wit… It is a very basic but very simple example. Additional examples can be found in the class NBBasicExamples in the package NativeBoost-Examples. There are also tests (For example NBFFICallbackTests>>#benchQSort) that you can look at, they work and show how to use NativeBoost. Else there is the chapter in Pharo for the entrerprise. Other people will give you a link. 2014-05-29 16:15 GMT+02:00 Bob Williams <rwilliams19(a)cox.net>: > I found an old Smalltalk/V imagine from 2000 and tracked down how I was > able add calls to Windows DLLs and to add my own.

Looks very nice. How do you send the mails? Do you have a helper class you're willing to share? :) Regards! Esteban A.

For nativeBoost have a look at the tutorial to use NB to bind X11 https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/PharoForTheEnterprise/lastSucces… I'm sorry but if igor does not write documentation, it takes far too much energy from me to understand and write something. It would be so much better if people with the knowledge would write.
