New Cog VMs available
by Eliot Miranda 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

...in http://www.mirandabanda.org/files/Cog/VM/VM.r2628. These fix a bug with pc mapping that could cause the Vm to crash on simple loops containing arithmetic on constants (e.g. 1 to: 20 do: [:i| 1=1]). They also cause the instantiation primitives to pop all their arguments rather than assume their argument count is 0 or 1. More change info available in the directory. -- best, Eliot

But this may not quite work as well as it once did and really we should have disabled that hostname some time ago. Since we didn't Google has happily continued to index packages under that hostname. So for now what I have done is change the configuration so that if a map1.squeakfoundation.org URL is used it is automatically redirected to the same map.squeak.org URL and with a permanent redirection status. Hopefully google and other search indexers will register the redirection and correct their indexes. Ken

SqueakMap: adding/editing releases
by Frank Shearar 03 Dec '12

I'm getting 502s when trying to edit releases. (For instance, http://map1.squeakfoundation.org/account/package/00e786be-3742-4976-be5b-dd…) Is there something wrong with SqueakMap? Perhaps SM just needs a touch of the lash? frank

ImageFormat added to SqueakMap
by David T. Lewis 03 Dec '12

03 Dec '12

I made a SqueakMap entry for the ImageFormat package. This is maintained in the VMMaker repository but does not require VMMaker and may be of some general interest for explaining the known image formats for Squeak that are used with interpreter and Cog VMs. ImageFormat represents the requirements of the image in terms of capabilities that must be supported by the virtual machine. The image format version is saved as an integer value in the header of an image file. When an image is loaded, the virtual machine checks the image format version to determine whether it is capable of supporting the requirements of that image. Dave
