Yep! All is well with this problem. I appreciate your help. No worries!

I was able to update the image and load all the VMMaker code. I set the Preferences using the Preference Wizard. I enabled larger fonts so I don’t have to squint any more. Super! I’m getting old.

Unfortunately I ran into another walk back when attempting to generate external plugins. I will post a new thread regarding this error.

Kindly,
Robert

Hi all!

I will clean this up ASAP. Was too tired yesterday and hit this unexpected loading issue when merging the latest changes for FFI-Kernel and FFI-Callbacks.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best,
Marcel

In the debugger, in the menu (i.e. right-click) of the stack frame
list, there is an item called "copy bug report to clipboard".

Certainly, I apologize for passing an unreadable zip file. I
looked at that file out and it is just the top frame DNU, not

here is the location where it DNUs. This comes in the update:
FFI-Kernel-mt.173. Is this what you need? Otherwise I will need
guidance to provide what you are looking for. Thx, Eliot!

externalFunctionDeclaration

    "Parse the function declaration for a call to an external

    (1) Create an instance of ExternalLibraryFunction and
install it as first literal.

    (2) Add a pragma to primitive call 120.
