platform-specific code

Hi,

when working with VMMaker 3.8b6 in a 3.9-final image, where do I get
the appropriate platform-specific code for building the VM?

Thanks,

Michael

Hi,

you can use the repositories or source versions for your platform from:

I have browsed that place, but am not sure which version of the VM
code I should use. 3.7? 3.8? 3.9? Is it safe to use 3.9 with a 3.8b6
VMMaker? (Does the VMMaker version have something to do with the VM
version?)

I hope I've made my question more clear now. Sorry for being imprecise
in the first place.

Best,

Michael

I keep trying to improve the assorted information pages on the swiki
and SM as people explain their problems, so if you can tell me where
you looked and what parts failed to explain matters properly I can
try to make it better.

Hi,

I use Ians Squeak-3.9-8
<http://www.squeakvm.org/unix/release/Squeak-3.9-8.src.tar.gz>, a 3.9
Image and VMaker 3.8b6 for developing plugins.

well, the confusing part was that VMMaker's most recent version is
3.8b6, but that I could not find VM sources with a corresponding
version number anywhere. I looked at http://ftp.squeak.org/, and at
http://www.squeakvm.org/ -> Unix.

Best,

Michael
