Re: Re: Re: latest SqueakSource image?

I've built my own Squeak Source server some weeks ago and of course I could make this image available... BUT it's easy to build your own and a good exercise to improve your skills. I hope my small Howto will work and help... 1. download the squeak-dev-62 image from damien cassou's web site: http://damien.cassou.free.fr/squeak-dev/squeak-dev-62.zip 2) run this image and install DynamicBindings via SqueakMap 3) install FFI (needed for graphViz later). I've used the Script Manager at "Prepared Packages" to load it 4) Open a Monticello browser and add http://www.squeaksource.com/ss as a repository (Squeak Source Repository) 5) Open that repository and install the following packages in exact the shown order step by step. At some packages you will be asked for user/password data KomServices-gk.2.mcz KomHttpServer-pmm.7.mcz XML-Parser-mir.9.mcz VB-Regex-avi.2.mcz Seaside2-lr.94.mcz Mewa-pmm.16.mcz GraphViz-pmm.43.mcz GraphBuilder-pmm.4.mcz TinyWiki-lr.10.mcz (*take care, it's not the newest package*) SqueakSource-pmm.1012.mcz 6) configure your own Squeak Source Server with changing the class methods in SSRepository a) change SSRepository>>defaultRepository when you don't want Lukas as your super user ;-). The following code only creates one super user. You can create everything else later TTW. SSRepository>>defaultRepository "member" | yourInitials | yourInitials := (SSMember initials: 'yourInitials') fullname: 'Your full name'; superuser: true; password: 'yourPassword'; yourself. ^ SSRepository new title: 'SqueakSource for your Name'; addMember: yourInitials b) change the method name of the class method initialize to a name you like for doing your own initialization. You need the following statements enabled: initializeTMP "-- initialize default repository --" Current := self defaultRepository. RootUrl := self defaultRootUrl. Storage := self defaultStorage. "-- save the current repository --" self storage saveRepository: self current. "-- load the last repository --" "Current := self storage loadRepository." "-- clear seaside caches --" WARegistry clearAllHandlers. Smalltalk garbageCollect 7) Open a workspace and "doit" SSRepository initializeTMP. SSKom startOn: 8888. 8) save the image That's it! You should be able to browse http://localhost:8888 (or http://your-ip:8888). Login with the user/pw you created in your method. 9) Individual configurations (can all be done when you are logged in as super user) a) change your e-maill address when you are logged in in "Edit Account" b) change smtp server and admin mail in "Edit Settings" c) if you haven't a well configured DNS environment running change the entry for "Root URL" (also in "Edit Settings) to http://your-ip-or-valid-dns-enabled-name:8888 (otherwise you will not download your source). 10) I'm sure I've forgot something but perhaps you will find it out :-). E.g. how to run the whole stuff on a different port... If this is too complicated for you (hm, at least you've asked in the beginners group. But running your own Squeak Source server isn't a beginners topic IMHO), I can sent you an image. Hope this helps, Franz Josef Konrad Klaus D.

Re: Win32 OS functions

The easiest way to do things like this is with the Foreign Function Interface (FFI). Usually you can find this in the Squeak image in the "FFI-*" categories (but for some versions you may need to load it from SqueakMap). Look at category 'FFI-Examples-Win32' for examples of what can be done. This is definitely getting out of "newbie" territory, but if you are comfortable building your own VM and plugins, you can also load the OSProcessPlugin from SqueakMap. This provides some Win32 thread and handle primitives that might be useful to you, or that you can modify to meet your needs. Have fun, Dave

Re: Re: Re: latest SqueakSource image?

I will copy paste this How-to on the Wiki when somebody tells me how to get an account to edit it. I also want to thank Damien Cassou at this place for doing his great work with the developer images. It spent me as a newbie (newbie to Squeak but I did Smalltalk 10 years ago) a lot of time. Franz Josef Petr Fischer schrieb: Franz, thanks for this useful HOW-TO (definitely not complicated). thanks, pf p.s. Can you copy&paste your work to http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/5766 or directly to: http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/3857 ?
