In Pharo 2.0 we make heavy use of
<primitive: 'primitiveDirectoryEntry' module: 'FilePlugin'>
since it provides file access in O(1) instead of O(n^2/4) by
<primitive: 'primitiveDirectoryLookup' module: 'FilePlugin'
however the primitive was completely broken under mac, so we fixed the following
- proper alias resolving
- proper directory lookup
plus we added another entry in the basic array returned from the primitives
which
allows us to access the posix permissions (mac / linux / win.
the changes are spread over several commits:
https://gitorious.org/cogvm/blessed/blobs/history/fdd5230337112db9273ddc3991e598b322a8f1d4/platforms/iOS/vm/Common/Classes/sqSqueakFileDirectoryInterface.m
The VM will still work with older images, however Pharo 2.0 requires a VM with
these primitives properly implemented, since we don't use FileDirectory anymore
and the new FileSystem only uses #primitiveDirectoryEntry.
