Does vm shipped with Squeak 4.0 support closures? [cross posted]

txporter
I know that Pharo (or at least Pharo with seaside) requires a VM with closure support, and the Pharo download page gives access to a vm 4.2.2b1 that supports them.

Squeak V4.0 has a vm 4.2.3.b1u, but I am unclear if it was build with support for closures. I just thought I would check on the pharo list and with the mouse folks as well, as I run both on my mac. I guess I might need both VM's.

Thanks to both for all the hard work!

Both of these support closures. Generally it's better to use the latest VM. You only need a single VM for both Squeak and Pharo, there is no significant difference. Usually no difference at all except maybe the name.

Bert,

Thanks for the clarification,  I appreciate it.  I'll go with the new
Squeak V4.0 vm and see how that does.
