Re: [Vm-dev] CMake for Windows?

Ping!

I know everyone is busy, but could someone test these CMake files? I
can't install a VM to build unix Squeak right now, but I'll do it in
the future.

I just want to know if it's still possible to create unix squeak with
these files :)

Re: [Vm-dev] CMake for Windows?

On linux, configure fails:

-- Configuring done

CMake Error in CMakeLists.txt:

Cannot find source file "aio.c". Tried extensions .c .C .c++ .cc .cpp .cxx

.m .M .mm .h .hh .h++ .hm .hpp .hxx .in .txx

aio.c is in .unix/vm/aio.c

Cheers,

Laurent Laffont

Hello,

Here is the latest set of files for CMake:
http://eleves.ec-lille.fr/~couprieg/divers/changes-16-05-10.tar.gz
(you have to remove platforms/win32/vm/config.h to make it build)

I tried to remove the dependency on the Squeak-win2-tools package. The
Direct3D code still uses a lot of DirectX 7 structures, and the recent
MinGW toolchain provides DirectX 8, so the B3DAccelerator plugin
doesn't build right now. If it's ok, I'll send other patches to make
it work with the new version. Otherwise, it's possible to modify
config.cmake for B3DAccelerator to use DirectX 7.

Could these patches be included now? The Unix VM builds without any
problem, so it can become the main way to build it (just replace
platforms/unix/cmake/configure by platforms/cmake/configure in the
tutorials). There may still be some problems with the Windows build,
but I'll send more patches once these are pushed in the svn :)

Hi Geoffroy. This is cool work. I cannot help you in the details of how to commit that in SVN as I have no idea. Listen to David.

Now...I have a couple of ideas:

1) regardless that, it would be really really cool if you can document all this in the pharo collaborative book. As you can see there is already a chapter for VM

http://book.pharo-project.org/book/Virtual-Machine/

and the windows part is empty: http://book.pharo-project.org/book/Virtual-Machine/Building/BuildVMOnWindows/

So...we can write the two possibilities to compile in Windows: the standard one and this new one using CMake.
You can start writing the one of CMake :)
If you want, please just let us know and we create a user for you.

2) In addition, I think it would be a good idea to have a Git for scripts for the VM. If Squeak VM developers like them, they can also include it in the svn.

Laurent Laffont already has a git repository with scripts like easy_squeakvm or something like that. So, you may want to commit your code there too.

3) What about integrating like easy_squeakvm with this ? or do a easy_squeakvm version of CMake for winwows ? I would love to do for example:

./easy_squeakvm.sh --os=Windows or ./easy_squeakvm.sh --os=Unix

4) Would be really great to have a Screencast about how to compile windows with CMake :)

Cheers and continue pushing.

Mariano

Best regards,

Geoffroy

Re: [Vm-dev] CMake for Windows?

easy_squeakvm here http://github.com/lolgzs/easy_squeakvm.

It's github so you can fork it easily (I would love squeakvm sources on github :). Don't hesitate to ask for write access.

Cheers,
