As a small experiment I've just made a branch on the SVN server that _should_ contain a tree of platform files suitable for working with a 3. 8 image and the VMMaker38b4 on SM.
It ought to come your way in response to svn co http://squeak.hpl.hp.com/svn/squeak/branches/VMM38b4
This does NOT include the changes towards 64 bit cleanliness and thus does not need the small changes that ought to be in the update stream. If this seems to work, we'll try making a new branch for each future version of VMMaker so that the head can be left as the dangerous place.
I suppose this link is gone: http://squeak.hpl.hp.com/svn/squeak/branches/VMM38b4
I couldn't get to it just now.
Actually, do I even need this? Tim originally supplied this so I could learn VM building. But, I'm now creating just an external plugin. Do I even need a buildable VM to build one external plugin? Perhaps I can use the latest SVN just for the directory structure?
How do others create a working environment for external plugin dev?
