[ENH] AddUnstableUpdtsSrvr-dew
by dway＠mailcan.com 30 Dec '04

30 Dec '04

from preamble: "Change Set: AddUnstableUpdtsSrvr-dew Date: 27 December 2004 Author: Doug Way Create a new UnstableUpdatesAtSqF ServerDirectory (in the postscript), to allow broadcasting updates directly to the unstable stream. This is the same machine as the (stable) Squeak Public Updates server. Only the groupName needs to be different, in order to update the UnstableUpdates.list file instead of Updates.list. Also fix an error-reporting bug in #checkServersWithPrefix:andParseListInto:. Also remove the UIUC url from the unstable Utilities updatesUrl list, since it hasn't worked in years. This speeds up updating considerably since we don't have to wait for that server to timeout." !

[WriteBarrier] DirtySetWriteBarrier in wrong category

SuperSwiki status?
by Takashi Yamamiya 30 Dec '04

30 Dec '04

Hi, Does anyone know how is the status of SuperSwiki? So far there were no SuperSiki for Japanese, and I have set up one for Japanese Squeak kids http://squeakland.jp/super. I downloaded its installer from squeakland.org:8080, and it works almost well. But I want to enhance for using multi-byte characters and to add funnier function like access ranking. Unfortunately, squeakland.org:8080 is down recently and I can not get any more information. I could get its source code from http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/1775 but I guess it is not updated nowadays. So if anyone knows about current status or latest source code of SuperSwiki, please let me know. Regards, Takashi

OK, I've read the Swiki and I know what they are. But what're they for?<s> I mean, a lot of people (relatively speaking) seem to have really gravitated to them--what're they used for?

Trying Exupery
by Bryce Kampjes 30 Dec '04

30 Dec '04

I've written a little how-to and provided two VMs. So would some people using Squeak on x86 Linux try to install it and let me know how you get on. (Just download a VM and install a package off SqueakMap). The instructions are at: http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/3945 Exupery is a compiler for Squeak. It compiles bytecodes to machine code. Currently it's about 10% slower than VisualWorks on my machine for the byte code benchmark. Exupery gets about 540 million bytecodes/second and VisualWorks gets about 600 million bytecodes/second. There is plenty of room to tune Exupery's bytecode performance more but I'm resisting so I can work on send performance. Have fun Bryce

[RFI] One more step for avoid obsolete references
by Lic. Edgar J. De Cleene 29 Dec '04

29 Dec '04

I trying to get all my old games to 3.8. Today I have to change a Class name and this bring me a new Window (see attachment). Maybe this was a long time feature. How I have Shout installed, each selected old method have old Class name remark in red, so sure you notes. What could be nice is what new name was remembered (in Clipboard maybe ?) and what a single paste (command V or alt V) could correct it. Or better , a change all old names to new option. If someone like and send lead, I could try to implement. Edgar
