Has anybody done a successful Standard Interpreter build in Squeak 4.6?

Howdy all.

I am finishing up a "cmakify.sh" script that builds on the existing Cog/image/build*.sh scripts from http://www.squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/Cog

It works fine except the VMMakerTool for the old VMMaker (not VMMaker.oscog) running on 4.6 barfs whereas it works perfectly on 4.5.

I am thinking it is not worth pursuing as 4.6 isn't being developed yet, but if by chance somebody has done a by-hand build of the old Standard Intepreter using the old VMMaker (Not VMMaker.oscog) on 4.6 I will investigate.

thx.

Hi Eliot.

>what's the symptom?

Exactly what should happen when a very tired programmer late in the day feeds the 46 image a script designed for VMMaker.oscog (BuildSqueak45Image.st) instead of a modified version of that script designed for the standard

VMMaker (BuildSqueakStandardImage.st) and then feeds a standard VM .config file to a VMMakerTool that is expecting a Stack Interpreter or better..

A good nights sleep, two cups of coffee plus an edit of the script produces the correct result. (:

Sorry for the noise.

Now, on to CMake proper.
