To load VMMaker + plugins manually, you need to 'Scanner allowUnderscoreAsAssignment: true'. If you want to fix it, first allow underscore, then change to := ��using��http://book.pharo-project.org/book/TipsAndTricks/FixingUnderscores and submit your package to David :)

Generally, the way to load VMMaker and plugins into Pharo is to use ConfigurationOfVMMaker.

Take a look at ConfigurationOfVMMaker>>#pharoUndescoreAssignment ,��ConfigurationOfVMMaker>>#fixVMMakerForPharo.

Thanks. I was under the impression from SqueakSource that the plugin needs to be compiled. Is there another site for the project that is more up-to-date/helpful/official?

Given the screwy results once I loaded my changed version, I'm hesitant to submit them.

Hi all,

Further to my previous email, I decided to install OSProcess/VMMaker. VMMaker installs a version of the freetype package, or rather fails to do so. This appears to be because it use _ for assignment, rather :=. Unfortunately, incompletely installing the package appears to have broken the preferences browser (attempting to launch it from the main menu results in an exception).


First, why are you loading VMMaker?�� I guess you don't need this package if you won't compile the plugin by yourself.

Second, Pharo 1.0 or Pharo 1.1 ?

I guess Pharo 1.1. Can you try evaluating:

Scanner allowUnderscoreAsAssignment: true.
��
Is there a way to undo the changes from the various packages loaded, and thus return my image to a sane state, or an alternative way to enable _, so that loading can continue?


There is in Tools -> "Recent submissions" that may help you.

In addition, you can take a text editor and open the .changes file and recover your lost code.

��

Marcin
