Squeak to VisualWorks

Hello,

I have some packages (containing a big number of classes) in Squeak 3.9. I need to export them in VisualWorks 7.5. Is there a nice way to do that ?

Cincom is supposed to have some tools. The stuff they use to create
the Seaside port.

On VisualWorks load Parcel FlieOut30.pcl (in Contributed) and in
Settings>Source select Squeak. Now you can filein/fileout from VW in
Squeak format. This a basic way to move code between those two dialects.
I would also recommend you to use Sport portability library for files,
times and sockets, which can simplify your porting job in the future.

Best regards
Janko

Another help are the Squeak "compatibility" classes in VW, look for a
bundle Squeak in public repository. There are for instance extensions of
VW classes with Squeak specific methods.
