Agreed. But it is hopefully only temporary. The package did load in Pharo a few years ago, and the prospect of using GT tools is an incentive for getting this working again. As the multiple bytecode set support stabilizes in both Squeak and Pharo I expect it to get easier to maintain VMMaker.oscog in both dialects. VMMaker.oscog had to contain many patches to support the CM development of the SistaV1 bytecode set, and the load failure Javier is seeing is related to this. As time allows I am eliminating these patches. So hopefully it'll load in Pharo soon. > >>> I have this snippet that doesn't work: >>> >>> Metacello new >>> filetreeDirectory: '../VMMaker/mc'; >>> baseline: 'Spur'; >>> load >>> >>> where ../VMMaker/mc is a clone of the official pharo repo at github. >>> >>> Cheers, >>> pocho >>> >>> -- >>> Javier Pimás >>> Ciudad de Buenos Aires >> > >
