true and false and some of the very few objects known to the VM and they
where instantiated when the parent of all current images was created.
All images are basically cloned and not re-created from source, and
that's why you don't see any initialization code for them, they just "are".
Hope this doesn't add to any confusion...

How is this for a confusing answer... it both does and doesnt.
I have a feeling the secret to unraveling that confusion comes from
this:
'true and false and some of the very few objects known to the VM'
does that mean that I can't go and find these variables anywhere? that
they arent true
global variables they are some sort of special global?

If you explore "Smalltalk specialObjectsArray", you'll see a special list of
variables that both the VM and the Smalltalk code have to agree on in order
to
run. For example, if a primitive wants to return "false", it has to
know what the rest of the Smalltalk image considers the sole instance
of the "False" class.
These items are established in
"SystemDictionary>>#recreateSpecialObjectsArray", the first version of which
had to be executed essentially "by hand" on the first VM (either the early
versions of Smalltalk 76 or 80). Since then, this special array has gotten
its initial values by running it in an already running system, so the first
few entries there (nil, false, true) are in fact clones of clones of clones
of
the original handcrafted objects. Of course, there's code on the VM side
that
knows the precise order of this magical array, and this is what allows them
to
communicate, so you can't just add new things here or change the ordering
without building a corresponding new VM.

Thanks for the pointer of where to explore and the background info.
In a couple days when I've had time to review and digest hopefully it
will all make sense.

If you load VMMaker and look in the 'VMMaker' category (package?), you will
see InterpreterPlugin class. The plugins are subclasses of this or
SmartSyntaxInterpreterPlugin.
The #InterpreterPlugin class has the moduleName instance variable. Some of
the plugins have class methods that return their name eg.
B3DAcceleratorPlugin has moduleName
^'B3DAcceleratorPlugin'
Not exactly sure where the moduleName gets set in other plugins.
Maybe someone else can tell how this works in more detail.

Hi all,
Is the second time I'm having troubles with simple changes to my
package :S, and I can't figure out what I'm doing bad.
I'm working in a little app. I did it 2 minor changes writing some
comments on Doc side of a class, one line on a method commented and so on.
Now, I'm trying to commit to my MC repository, and I get an:
Error: Subscript Out Of Bounds: 1
Following the debugger, seems the error is in:
foreignExtensionMethodsForClass: aClass
^ (self foreignExtensionCategoriesForClass: aClass)
gather: [:cat | (aClass organization listAtCategoryNamed: cat)
collect: [:sel | self referenceForMethod: sel
ofClass: aClass]]
where 'cat' is nil. But I don't know wich Category is this.
Some advice?
Note: Debug Report attached. <cid:[email protected]>
