Sungjin Chun, This is an amazing image. And that I've never seen or heard about
it before is shocking to me. Really, dude, you need to writ something down about this: Why did you make this? Chris |

Just for reference, the image Sam talks about was made available as part of the original open sourcing effort for the RoarVM. It is about 1.7MB and can be downloaded at: https://github.com/downloads/smarr/RoarVM/minimal-MVC.zip The shrinking scripts that were applied to Squeak 3.7 (or 3.8, don't remember well) are still in the image.

Once restored to health, it should be possible to make Morphic unloadable and reloadable in the same way that MVC is currently unloadable and reloadable. The most immediate problem in MVC is the lack of sufficient ToolBuilder support to provide a working debugger. I suspect that if the debugger can be restored to health, the rest of the issues will be straightforward. I think that the Squeak project structure is a wonderful thing, and it would be good if we can bring it to the point where an image can host any combination of Morphic, MVC or other project types, and where it would be possible to easily strip down to just a single project type, whether MVC, Morphic, Juan's SimpleMorphic, or some other type of project not yet invented.

Too much questions fir me :-) Why? As you might know already, there 're 3.7 or 3.7 based MVC only images. But I need unicode support in 3.8 so I made one from 3.8.1 for me. My main usages are 1. For creating web apps using seaside and 2. in-house trading tool where MVC is used to create UI. I've referenced 3.7 MVC shrinking chagesets and "manually" applied to create mine. Why I removed morphic is 1. I think MVC is better than coloful morphs :-) (yes, personal taste) and 2. want to make as small image as possible. Sorry for my poor english. Sent from my iPhone

I suspect that if the debugger > can be restored to health, the rest of the issues will be straightforward. There was considerable progress on fixing the debugger in 2010. Andreas Raab started a thread on Sep 7, 2010 with 42 follow up posts. Andreas Raab, David T. Lewis and Florin Mateoc worked on the debugger. I think before that MVC did not even start properly.. What still does not work in addition is - FileList - SystemBrowser shows improper button layout (instance / ? / class). Of course at this very moment the best thing for people interested in MVC is just to take Sungjin Chun's image https://code.google.com/p/nxt-web/downloads or the one Sam Adams / Stefan Marr were talking about https://github.com/downloads/smarr/RoarVM/minimal-MVC.zip (1.7MB) --Hannes > I think that the Squeak project structure is a wonderful thing, and it > would be good if we can bring it to the point where an image can host > any combination of Morphic, MVC or other project types, and where it > would be possible to easily strip down to just a single project type, > whether MVC, Morphic, Juan's SimpleMorphic, or some other type of > project not yet invented. > > Dave > > > |
