AioPlugin is back in linux VMs

Hi,

I reintroduced AioPlugin into the linux VM.
In Mac it is there since always.
In windows is irrelevant.

So well, if you use linux and download the latest vm, you can play with it and check that everything is ok (or the contrary) :)

ah yes… this was important for OSProcess and derivates :)

Esteban

so you can pipe outputs when executing OSProcess commands. 

Marvelous!

Thanks Esteban,

this is really nice :)

AioPlugin provides support for asynchronous IO event notification. When
an external IO event occurs, the event registration causes a Smalltalk
semaphore to be signaled. A process can wait on this semaphore, thereby
acting as an event handler for the external event.

Code for the plugin is at http://www.squeaksource.com/AioPlugin.

For testing and examples, see class AioEventHandlerExample in package OSProcess,
and AioEventHandlerTestCase in OSProcess-Tests.

Hi Esteban,

I feel stupid to ask but I downloaded the latest VM from http://files.pharo.org/vm/pharo/linux/ and I can't find this plugin. I also checked CI job at https://ci.inria.fr/pharo/job/PharoVM/Architecture=32,Slave=vm-builder-linux/ but no luck there too.

Could you please advise me where I should download the latest VM?

Thank you for your job!

You do not have to see it, is an internal plugin.
Is like the sun, even if you do not see it he is there :P
