When using the debugger, I am often getting into the situation shown in the attached picture when stepping. And the image is then frozen. No matter how much Cmd-. I do, no way out it seems. For newcomers, this is really discouraging I think. What can we do to alleviate this? Thx, Phil
Yeah there was a bug report about stepping on Processor terminateActive. I tried with the latest Pharo VM and I was able to do Cmd . to interrupt. It worked several times, but it might be just a question of luck. It is not easy to fix. We could as a temporary patch hardcode the step over terminateActive ... 2013/6/1 phil@highoctane.be <phil@highoctane.be>

Ok. I'll get the latest PharoVM and move from there. And recovering lost changes when facing this is just a huge pain. Phil On Sunday, June 2, 2013, Clément Bera wrote:

Most probably you know that already, but you can load the changes of another image. That might help to ease the migration a bit :/: simply drag and drop a .changes file onto an image and you can replay whatever was in there...

Phil, You can take a look at http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~sebnozzi/CategorySaver This is not a solution for your real problem but it might help to reduce the impact. Regards, Juan On Sun, Jun 2, 2013 at 5:51 AM, phil@highoctane.be <phil@highoctane.be>wrote:
