I can't save a project to squeaksource. The 'why' is: The project is registered 17 janvier 2009 And 'here' i'm the 16 janvier so it seems that the authentification failed for this. Any solution?

ZipFile
by Keith Hodges 16 Jan '09

16 Jan '09

I am using ZipArchive to create a zip file, but when I expand said zip file the permissions of the top directory are: drw-rw-rw which isn't very helpful. I am on Mac OS X 10.5.5, using the Mac VM 3.8.18Ubeta1U any ideas? Keith

x86 linux VM FFI FPU stack overflow
by nicolas cellier 15 Jan '09

15 Jan '09

Apologies for the cryptic subject... I have some news about http://bugs.squeak.org/view.php?id=3929 I detected with gdb that the example I provided triggers a FPU stack overflow. When this occurs, a qNan is placed on FPU stack top. Thus, though ffiFloatReturnValue == 0.0, testing in Smalltalk (self myFFICall = 0.0) will result in 0.0==Nan due to stack overflow. primitive which execute special send #= will incorrectly return false... Don't tell me to not use = on Floats, this is not the problem, you can replace the test with (self myFFICall < 1.0), you will get (0.0<qNan) -> false all the same. At this point, I see two possibilities: - either I totally messed up with calling conventions - or the FFI glue ffiCallAddressOf is broken ($VM/Squeak-3.10-1/platforms/unix/plugins/SqueakFFIPrims/x86-sysv-asm) I have no knowledge about IA-32 and don't wish to learn further, using gdb at instruction level was already painfull enough for me. Can somebody aware of x86 and calling convention check my guess? Nicolas

Unix VM listen behavior?
by Andreas Raab 14 Jan '09

14 Jan '09

Hi Folks - I have a quick question about the expected behavior of the Unix VM when running on a machine with multiple IP addresses. We have a box with two interfaces (eth0 and eth1 respectively) and only eth0 was originally enabled. Listening without specifying an interface worked fine for clients connecting to the (static) IP configured for eth0. Then, we enabled eth1 and gave it its own (static) IP address. We had two images running, one without specifying the interface, one specifying the IP for eth1 (both images had been restarted after the change was made). The result was that clients could connect to the image running on eth1 but not to the one running on eth0. Only when we changed that image to use the explicit IP address configured for eth0 everything worked as expected (i.e., clients could connect to either IP address). Question: Is this the expected behavior? I'm not sure if not specifying the interface implies that the VM accepts connections on all interfaces, or only the first one, the last one, a random one or not at all. Any insights are greatly appreciated - we have a working setup but it would be nice to know whether this is what we should expect to see or not. Cheers, - Andreas
