[squeak-dev] SqueakGTK

Hi everybody,

I put a new version of SqueakGTK at
http://gforge.inria.fr/frs/?group_id=1211, you can download the
squeakVM (squeakGTK-3.10-1.tar.bz2 but only for unix maybe macos ??)
patched with the GtkPlugin and the callback support and rebuild the
vm.

To build the vm inside the Squeak- 3.10-1 dir
create a dir i.e. build/ go to this dir,
../platform/unix/config/configure
make
[make install]

After you can install the Gtk-G.C.70.mcz file into your image and do
in a workspace : "GtkDemo open" ;)

If don't use a unix version of the vm or if you want to rebuild the vm
by hand you must patch the code source of the squeakVM with the
GtkPlugin-02052008.tar.bz2 and also with
squeakCallback-02052008.tar.bz2 inside your image install vmmaker,
install Callback.cs, ExtraRoot.cs and Gtk-G.C.70.mcz. Once you've done
this with vmmaker you can rebuild the vm.

I don't think the plugin will work for the squeak windows vm (I've
tried to compile the vm but without success)

Cheers,
Gwenael Casaccio

Hi Gwenaël, this sounds very promising. Is this the same project
described at http://squeakgtk.pbwiki.com/ , and if so does this mean
that those pages are no longer being maintained?

Cheers,
Michael

In fact this is the same project I continue the project because it was advanced.
I'll contact the authors of the project if I can use the web site it
will be very cool :)

Hi Gwenael,
I'm sure that a lot of squeakers are waiting for that.
Please, go on!

What problems did you encounter trying to compile the VM?

- There is also a strange behavior in the makefile it's certainly me but
I've seen that make creates the gnu-interp.c but it doesn't compile
gnu-interp.c but when I exec make Squeak.exe gnu-interp.c is compiled
but I've also the link errors :s

I see. Like Igor was saying it looks like you haven't been creating the
C source code correctly. Or perhaps you were trying to compile all
plugins external - which doesn't work for some plugins. You might try to
make at least FilePlugin internal and retry.

Hope this helps,
