Loading Cog fails under Windows

Thanks Clement, got it.

FYI doing the checkout leads to a filename too long

$ git checkout -f HEAD
error: unable to create file mc/VMMaker-oscog.package/GeniePlugin.class/instance
/primSameClassAbsoluteStrokeDistanceMyPoints.otherPoints.myVectors.otherVectors.
mySquaredLengths.otherSquaredLengths.myAngles.otherAngles.maxSizeAndReferenceFla
g.rowBase.rowInsertRemove.rowInsertRemoveCount..st (Filename too long)
Checking out files: 100% (17530/17530), done.

another detail, I use MSYS shell and I don't have a .profile file in my home, so I just passed that point.

This bug is specific to windows. On this page: https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm , if you look at the README.md there are information on how to build and get the sources of the VM. At the bottom, there is a paragraph entitled windows specific. Here are some extra informations for windows, among them, this bug you showed on the genie plugin. (the paragraph starts with "If you do this on Windows/Msys, you'll get a message about the GeniePlugin giving trouble" ).I guess this is what you need.

Why is the GeniePlugin still part of the VM? Nobody uses it, it was experiment, discontinued years ago, they author works at google since 2005…

Someone I wonder if we want to maintain a museum or invent the future.

having a group of C (not afraid persons) cleaning the VM code and library would be really great.

Maybe can we do something about that on the 20th.

Note: there were3 pull requests https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-vm/pulls?direction=desc&page=1&sort=created&state=open at the moment, I reviewed them and merged as they looked ok. (2 readme.md, one with Nicolai Windows fix).

(sometimes is not so easy, as you know)

as soon as I have some time to work on the vm I will remove the "undesirable" plugins (while working on the ones that we actually need, like SoundPlugin :).

I have been looking at the code using Source Navigator NG and it is helpful. 

I am not afraid of C for sure. 

Who is in?
