Anyone used the SImulation package from SqueakMap (the
Smalltalk-80 simulation framework that was ported to Squeak) ? I'm running some simulations but the results I get just make no sense! I can define more ressources that the consumer will ever need for the whole simulation and I keep having consumers waiting!!! Besides, some classes are missing from the original framework (as published in the book). Does anyone have a full version of the framework here? Thank you! ----------------- Benoit St-Jean Yahoo!

This is interesting. Can you provide such an example? Without further details I find it difficult to understand what went wrong. > Besides, some classes are missing from the original > framework (as published in the book). > Does anyone have a full version of the framework here? For Squeak, I have a package that is almost identical to that old package, but it includes also the examples from the Blue Book. I put that on the Swiki on page http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/5844 (I needed some time to prepare loadable change sets for the newer Squeak versions, all that stuff was in 2.7 image. The change sets on the Swiki wre created with 3.7 and should be useable for 3.7 and newer versions) Hope that helps, Boris |

could you published that code on squeaksource. I was planning to have a look since I wanted to use Squeak to show that we can use computer for simulating reality.

The simulations examples in the blue book were one of the first things that made Smalltalk seem interesting to me, and it's nice to have this material available on line. Dave |
