I received this about the FFI and getting the latest Version

All is done via Metacello now. There are many available package
configurations available on�squeaksource.com/MetacelloRepository.html

One of them is for FFI, you can either manually load or use a script:


Gofer new
�squeaksource:'MetacelloRepository';
�package:'ConfigurationOfFFI';
�load.

(Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfFFI) project latestVersion load.

Have fun
Torsten


P.S: I'm not on pharo-users list, thats why I reply in private.

Hope this helps with the version number.

Hi Mariano,

One thing I don't understand of Metacello is why don't you use
#latestVersion (or #latestReleaseVersion, #latestDevelopementVersion,
etc) instead of specifying the version number (e.g. '1.3'). How do you
keep updated about the latest version numbers?
