Hi,

I've loaded AlienOpenGL to check that Alien works or not. AlienOpenGLLibraryExamples tests fails. ex: AlienOpenGLLibraryExamples new testDrawingVBOCubeWithoutNormals AlienOpenGLLibrary>>primLoadLibrary:

primitive failed trying to load 'OpenGL.framework'

Has it ever been tested on Linux ?

Cheers,

Laurent Laffont

Hi,

I've created ConfigurationOfVMMaker version 1.4 to build Alien plugins.

I use:

• PharoCore-1.0-10517
• VMMaker-dtl.170
• Alien-VMMaker-Plugins-John M McIntosh.8
• Alien-VMMaker-Support-John M McIntosh.8
• squeak vm rev. 2203

Laurent,

Thanks for doing the ConfigurationOfVMMaker update.

I've tried with NewsqueakIA32ABIPlugin and NewsqueakIA32ABIPluginAttic (which one should I use ?) as external.

I had the same question. John, is NewsqueakIA32ABIPluginAttic just there to hold on to some no-longer-used primitives? It compiles fine so I am assuming that it is safe to use (a class comment would be good BTW).

My build script is here http://github.com/lolgzs/easy_squeakvm/blob/alien/easy_squeakvm.sh

The VM is successfully built. Then I load Alien tests using: ConfigurationOfAlien loadTests.

FYI: I made the updates to VMMaker platforms/Cross/vm, and can verify that the plugin compiles cleanly (building a 32-bit plugin/VM on a 64-bit Linux platform). However, I did not load Alien and cannot verify that the resulting plugin functions correctly.
