Hi Mariano, thanks, but I had already checked that discussion. The bundle that Esteban provided didn't work, quoting Stef: Thanks a lot I copied in the resources folder of 5.7.4 It crashes. Also, the thread was about it not working on MacOS (it made sense, it's an X11 control plugin), but I'm on Debian Linux. The only XDisplayControlPlugin I can find around is provided by the squeaksource pagage XDCP, but loading it fixes nothing either... 2011/4/4 Mariano Martinez Peck <marianopeck@gmail.com>

Hi again,
when trying Mariano's idea I get the following error:
*forkSqueak requires XDisplayControlPlugin* * * *Select Proceed to continue, or close this window to cancel the operation.*
Do I need to recompile the VM to add support for this plugin? If so, are there any guidelines around on how to do it?
Thanks!
Bernat.

Lukas, if that happened anytime soon it would make my life much easier hehe
Is there a way I could help to give it a boost?
Mariano, the reason I cannot load the package is that it may contain (either intentionally or not) harmful code. An .st file can contain arbitrary code that is going to be executed at load time, so it'd be really easy to hack the image: "Object compile: 'new'!", for instance ;)
The solution you propose looks interesting, but I'm not sure I've completely understood it. Do you mean to run a new image, send it the project file to be filed in, have it run the critics on the loaded package, and get the output back to the original image? If so, that's a solution I've been thinking of, but it would spend too many resources. Even though I could always use a very light image, if only 5 users were to be working on the app at the same time I'm afraid the system would begin to suffer :(
On a second thought, is there some smaller, simpler implementation of the SmallLint package? I wouldn't need to run all the tests, just a couple of them: Bugs, Intention Revealing, Miscelaneous and Unnecessary Code, and actually not even all the tests in these categories.
Thanks a lot, I'm all ears :)

Is not enough loading the classes but not showing them in the browser ? or maybe not putting them in Smalltalk ?
can you do kind of a fork (using OSProcess) of the proccess running image which receives a .st file and in the new forked image you pass the .st in startup, do a file in and then run code-critics?
I am curious why you cannot load them hehehehhe

Hi list,
I have a pretty special need, which is to be able to run code critics on projects that have not yet been loaded into the image. For example, I need to browse an st file -or a squeaksource project- and before loading it I want to run critics on it, would this be possible somehow?
If it looks like something noone would need to do, I understand. It's just that the project I'm working on is pretty particular... I've been exploring other possibilities but I'm afraid this is one of the few left for me to think of :(
Thanks a lot in advance!
