Loading parcels using a batch file

Hello,

I am trying to load a few parcels to a virgin image to create an image
that has my default parcels loaded. I am using VW7.8 non commercial on a
Windows 7 box.

I am starting the visual works from the command line:
      vwnt visualnc.im -filein .\startingLoad.st.

When the image starts it complains with "ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND". From the
stack backtrace, I can see CodeReader>>readFrom is attempting to read
from '$(VISUALWORKS)/parcels/RBSUnitExtensions.pcl'

I have confirmed that my environment variable VISUALWORKS points to the
correct place and I confirmed that the parcel file exists.

Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,
Frank

BTW -  Here is what startingLoad.st looks like:

Parcel loadParcelFrom: '$(VISUALWORKS)/parcels/RBSUnitExtensions.pcl'.
ObjectMemory snapshotAs: 'working78' thenQuit: false.

Hello,

you may want to try loading by name:

In my batch file the .st part looks like:
" Load Parcels for Dev"
#(  'VWHelp' 'UIPainter'  'SUnit' 'SUnitUI' 'RBSUnitExtensions' 'RBTabbedToolsets' 'RBCodeHighlighting' 'RBByteCodeTool'
'StoreForPostgreSQL'  'SToreForOracle' 'SToreForSqlServer' 'LaunchPad' 'AT Profiling UI DLLCC'
) do: [ :each | Parcel loadParcelByName: each].

And it works.

Best regards,

Yes that worked, thanks.

I was using the instructions in the Smalltalk Daily tutorial here:

http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/casts/stDaily/2009/smalltalk_daily-11-23-09-lg.mp4

The instructions in that tutorial appears not to work in a Windows
environment.

Thanks again,
Frank
