If you mean this fix, which changes cg addHeaderFile: '<tttables.h>'. to cg addHeaderFile: '<freetype/tttables.h>'. it is fine and i changed it. But read carefully please.. For some unknown reason, CMAKE does not adds the include directive with freetype path. So, a compilation fails at including ft2build.h file, because it can't find it! I manually hacked the Makefile and added the -I/usr/include/freetype2 so, after that i can compile. -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig. |

Just FYI, this include is just plain broken in FT2Plugin. The correct usage of Freetype is by using the macros, for example FT_FREETYPE_H and FT_OUTLINE_H. The correct macro to use here is: cg addHeaderFile: 'FT_TRUETYPE_TABLES_H'. Instead of using either 'tttables.h' OR 'freetype/tttables.h' See the Freetype documentation about using the header files correctly: http://freetype.sourceforge.net/freetype2/docs/tutorial/step1.html The reason it works on Windows is that I'm going out of my way to add freetype/ to the include path (which is wrong too but it works).

I know that, Andreas. But the problem is not in that. I repeat: Damn CMAKE does not adds a search path to /usr/include/freetype2 , where all these files rooted!

I wasn't responding to your post but rather David's and his question about whether Ian's patch "would work" on Windows. The answer is: Yes, it would but for the wrong reasons. The correct usage of Freetype is by using the macro. Cheers, - Andreas > On 28 April 2010 04:15, Andreas Raab<[hidden email]> wrote: >> >> Just FYI, this include is just plain broken in FT2Plugin.

Michael probably intended to migrate that to http://www.squeaksource.com/Freetype.html but we never got around to it. I don't see the plugin sources anywhere else (Andy's "Freetype Plus" repo seems to not have it). Might be best to migrate into VMMaker? - Bert - |

FT2Plugin, which stands for freetype plugin is already in VMMaker. As well as platform source files in svn repository.. I haven't used any external sources except official ones.. Man, i just trying to get VM built with my new plugin.. :) On 28 April 2010 04:31, Bert Freudenberg <[hidden email]> wrote: > > On 28.04.2010, at 02:59, David T.

Might be best to migrate into VMMaker? Bert, Do you know if the rest of the stuff in http://source.impara.de/freetype/ still has value (or has it been superceded by Freetype Plus)? If yes then I would rather move it all to SqS/Freetype and let the plugin be maintained there. Assuming that you can get administrative access to it and add me as a developer, I'll be glad to do the copying. On the other hand if the plugin is the only issue, I'll go ahead and move it into the VMMaker package. Do you know if it is MIT licensed? Thanks, Dave |

I have opened a new SqueakSource project for the Freetype plugin (FT2Plugin). MCHttpRepository location: 'http://www.squeaksource.com/FreetypePlugin' user: '' password: '' This contains copies of all the Freetype-Plugin entries from the archival repository at http://source.impara.de/freetype, as well as one additional update from Mantis 7521. Project administrators are Andy Tween, Bert Freudenberg and me. Developers are everyone whose author initials appear in the original archive. VMMaker class>>updateFromServer should now load FT2Plugin from the new FreetypePlugin repository. A similar update will be needed for ConfigurationOfVMMaker for Pharo. For now the original package name Freetype-Plugin has been retained, although I note that this conflicts with the current packaging of Freetype in SqS/Freetype Plus, so a change to the package name may be in order. FT2Plugin contains dependencies on Freetype. This is the reason that I moved it to a separate SqueakSource project rather than include it in the SqS/VMMaker repository. Dave |

Hi Laurent. Thank you very much for tacking care. Now I was thinking: the ONLY way to correclty be able to reproduce a VM version we need not only the VMMaker side but also SVN. If 6 months from today, I try to load version 1.4 with trunk, it won't work. I need to downloa an spceific SVN revision, as you write it in the commit comment. However, I was thinking that it would be great to put such information in the description: of Metacello. Not even the version (as the repo can change) but also the whole command. Not necesary while a verison is in #development but yes when it is realed. So, suppose I release 1.4 I can write: version14: spec <version: '1.4' imports: #('1.4-baseline') > spec for: #common do: [ spec blessing: #development. spec description: '- Changed repository of TrueType - etc..... Works with svn co http://squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/trunk/platforms/ -r 2203'. spec package: 'FFI-Pools' with: 'FFI-Pools-ar.1'; package: 'SharedPool-Speech' with: 'SharedPool-Speech-dtl.2'; package: 'VMMaker' with: 'VMMaker-dtl.170'; package: 'MemoryAccess' with: 'MemoryAccess-dtl.3'; package: 'SlangBrowser' with: 'SlangBrowser-dtl.3'; package: 'VMConstruction-Plugins-OSProcessPlugin' with: 'VMConstruction-Plugins-OSProcessPlugin-mtf.21'; package: 'VMConstruction-Plugins-AioPlugin' with: 'VMConstruction-Plugins-AioPlugin-dtl.9'; package: 'VMConstruction-Plugins-XDisplayControlPlugin' with: 'VMConstruction-Plugins-XDisplayControlPlugin-dtl.7'; package: 'Balloon3D-Constants' with: 'Balloon3D-Constants-ar.5'; package: 'Balloon3D-Plugins' with: 'Balloon3D-Plugins-bf.5'; package: 'Freetype-Plugin' with: 'Freetype-Plugin-dtl.56'; package: 'FreeType' with: 'FreeType-tween.435'. ]. spec for: #pharo do: [ spec blessing: #development. spec package: 'Alien-VMMaker-Support' with: 'Alien-VMMaker-Support-John M McIntosh.8'; package: 'Alien-VMMaker-Plugins' with: 'Alien-VMMaker-Plugins-John M McIntosh.8'; package: 'Sound' with: 'Sound-StephaneDucasse.47'. ] Of course, this is just an example... what do you think ?

I think you're right. I will add this description. Indeed, with easy_squeakvm script you have reproducibility (all is automated, explicit svn rev. and ConfigurationOfVMMaker).
May be we can "translate" easy_squeakvm to Smalltalk so we can have an EasySqueakVM package (or better name) which is cross platform. Cheers,

Re: Freetype plugin archive

Yes, it is reproduceable. But it is the same, in the Conf version, I need the version of easy_squeakvm script as you will commit after. easy_squeakvm is linux specific...so I would put the svn version, not easy_squeakvm script ;)
hahahah maybe ;)

Yes it's true. But I think it's easily portable to MacOSX as it's a Unix system. As there's some work on the Windows VM build to use CMake if I understand, with cygwin we can have it too.
And then we can automatically generate the One-Click archive from scratch ;p I can tag easy_squeakvm 1.0 for Pharo 1.0, easy_squeakvm 1.1 for Pharo 1.1 and so on. Laurent Laffont.

sounds cool. If I have time I will try easy_squeakvm in my Mac...
