Re: [Pharo-project] Issue 2744: Renaming the path to the image is not caught in Pharo on OS X

But if the changes file is pointed as "./myImage.changes" instead of "/home/mariano/pharo/myImage.changes" the problem will not exist.

But I don't know if the vm supports relative paths...

Yes, I have this probelm several times....what I did is to change the

logChange:   so that it does nothing, save it, and then quit the image.

Anyway, what could be a solution for this problem?

Relative paths? :/
 

No, it won't wotk.

Suppose my .image and .changes are now in /home/mariano/Pharo  and while the image is running you rename the directory to  /home/mariano/pharoRenamed

Your smalltalk image is still pointing to your .changes in /home/mariano/Pharo   and it was not updated.

So...the only way I see is that the OS somehow should notify SqueakVM about that.....

 

thanks

Hi guys,

If I rename any of the directories in the path of a running image I will
break the image: I can't save it, I can't close it. I get a debugger
at any step. It seems the image is not informed of the path change
and it still tries to log the changes in the the changes file which has
already moved.

I verified this on OS X,.

I opened an issue for this: http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=2744
