Of course that can not work. .cs is source code, you of course need a compiler (if Fuel could load cs.gz, it *would be* a compiler). What you need to do is to serialize the *Objects* that are code (Classes, MethodDictioaries, CompiledMethods) using Fuel. Then the result can be loaded back using Fuel.

Yes, I know it. I have the .cs.gz for normal load, not for Fuel !!! > What you need to do is to serialize the *Objects* that are code (Classes, > MethodDictioaries, > CompiledMethods) using Fuel. Then the result can be loaded back using Fuel. What I ask is how to have the .fuel of classes as regular objects as Mariano write in his blog. Then , this Foo.fuel could be loaded into target image. Some more granular as Pavel made with complete packages some days ago. And wish made experiments if this Foo.fuel could be loaded into different fork as Squeak, Cuis having Fuel into. > Marcus Thanks ! Edgar |

Hi Edgar,
some weeks ago I played with an idea to have Pharo Kernel as the base of Squeak. I compared the images to see how much work it would constitute. I found out two things: - it would not require too much work. It would be not simple but it is possible - there is no reason to do that I can imagine Squeak as an extension of Pharo but I do not see the purpose and target users of the resultant system. -- Pavel On Sun, Apr 15, 2012 at 2:15 PM, Edgar J.

Even though I have only used Fuel a little (for remote task execution with OSProcess), I was able to easily understand the code when I loaded it in Squeak. There is no reason that a well-written package cannot be maintained for several flavors of the image. That is a sign of competent developers doing good work :) Dave |

Cuis is the best implementation of Morph, but lacks compatibility. You need re think all and make from zero Squeak is a mess, no doubt about. But have necessary backwards compatibility (for me). I can't do Morphic games without grab Morphs with Halo. A simple thing like my SmartTrashMorph ported to Cuis or to Pharo takes too much time to do. For young people like most here caring about Web 2.0, Pharo is the answer and Markus is right, we need focus on better Pharo. But for old people like me, need responses NOW , and know wish more as Web 2.0. When GsoC ends, several projects give me 95% of info for learn how to build my ideal system. As PharoKernel builder and developer, I ask for tutorials for fools. Cheers Edgar |

Thanks Dave for the nice words :) At the beginning (first releases of Fuel) most answers and feedback from the community was "yet another serializer?" "why you have started again from scratch?" Now, some time later, people is slowly understanding why we have started from scratch ;) Cheers -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com |

I think that pharo serves a need. The need for something solid and free from restrictions related to software.
Got interested in Smallatalk and Squeak quite a long time ago. But never moved past the toy-stage with them. Went homoiconic with Tcl and "OO" with the whole Java chain.
With Pharo, there is a sense of progress, cleanliness, and will to push the boundary by making some hard choices. And this made me interested in how things worked inside, and invest time and energy in making it a key target platform for my ideas-materialization activities in my business. Because business thrives on something solid, and innovation doesn't like arbitrary restrictions.
Owning and mastering the whole chain from VM up to Image detail is huge. In Squeak, it is accretion. I think Pharo leans more towards the "crystallization" side of things. (Yep, I drank the kool-aid).

Will we not do X *just because* it will be hard to port code using X to Squeak? Marcus -- Marcus Denker -- http://marcusdenker.de |

You was right, Pharo have a vision and SOB members complain about Andreas not leading the community. Also I wish Andreas come back, but is time to grow up. Cheers Edgar P.S.

You can get the halos but not all the time in your face.
Click + shift + option on mac bring the halos. We do value direct manipulation but only when we want it, not all the time Stef On Apr 16, 2012, at 10:52 AM, Edgar J.

Yes, you select some submorph, not the root one. And a preference could do the trick... In others forks you click middle button morph and manipulate Debug, Browser, Workspace. One click and duplicate and you have two Debug windows and could go several steps back in one and see where you start in the other. Show this to game developers !!! Very thanks !! Edgar |
