[squeak-dev] Building HydraVM from SVN (on Windows)

Hi,

I checked out Hydra from SVN, and tried to build it with the normal
Win32 toolchain. When I cd into winbuild/ and type "make", I get the
following error:

Makefile:42 src/plugins.ext: No such file or directory
Makefile:43 src/plugins.int: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target 'src/plugins.int'. Stop.

I don't have a src/ directory at all, so I guess that I'm supposed to
use VMMaker to generate the sources. I assume that I first have to
modify VMMaker by applying Win32VMMaker.st, but to which VMMaker? Which
image should I start with (Croquet, Squeak-3.10, etc.)? Which
repository should I pull VMMaker from?

Thanks,
Josh

VMMaker is here:

http://jabberwocky.croquetproject.org:8889/HydraVM

I've heard it is supposed to work in any image, but I used a
Croquet image just to be safe.

The instructions are in the availibility section of this page:

That's funny, Igor answered the same question on the VM-dev mailing list, and pointed me at :
http://squeaksource.com/HydraVM

Looks like the VMMaker package is currently fresher on SqueakSource, and the HydraVM package is fresher on jabberwocky. I think Igor is having some fun with us! :-)

Probably.

There are inaccuracies on that page. For example, the SVN sources are at:
http://squeakvm.org/svn/squeak/branches/HydraVM/
(not http://.../Qwaq)

I learned a couple of other things from Igor on VM-dev:

1. ignore the Win32VMMaker.st file in SVN. Just use the Monticello (from whichever of the repositories is freshest, I guess ;-) )
2. after each time you update from SVN, and before you build, delete the file sqOldSoundPrims.c

Thanks for the help,
Josh
