[Pharo-dev] PharoLauncher feedback
Hi christophe I took the bleeding edge and here are my report. - We need a signed VM because the security on mac is getting in our way. - I got PrimitiveFailed: CreatedDirectory in MacStore failed. So I do not know what to do :( I do not get why I cannot write on my download folder ;( but this error should be caught. - Pharo.app should be renamed PharoLauncher - the Quit menu is showing SqueakOSXApp and the about too. - There is a template 7.0 (beta) but it does not exist below Pharo60 We should not have Pharo 60 but Pharo 6.1 else it seems to work. well no :) I downloaded Pharo70 alpha and I got a problem with FT2Error primitive failed. May be this is normal. I do not know. Stef

IIRC they are related and you have to move the app into your Applications folder - Cheers, Sean -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Developers-f1294837.html

Right. It is not directly related to the launcher. Pharo binaries need to be signed. OS packaging scripts are shared (launcher, std pharo distribution). > - I got PrimitiveFailed: CreatedDirectory in MacStore failed. > So I do not know what to do :( > > I do not get why I cannot write on my download folder ;( but this > error should be caught. > > - Pharo.app should be renamed PharoLauncher > - the Quit menu is showing SqueakOSXApp and the about too. This two points are not easy because they are related to how the VM is built. I tried to use Alien and OS X integration to change menus at runtime but it takes time as I do not know a lot on OS X api. We should put that on the TODO list. > - There is a template 7.0 (beta) but it does not exist below Pharo60 > We should not have Pharo 60 but Pharo 6.1 fixed > else it seems to work. > > well no :) > I downloaded Pharo70 alpha and I got a problem with FT2Error primitive failed. > May be this is normal. I do not know. Not sure you tested the latest version. I did a lot of improvements (especially for Linux) on the launcher to ensure the environment you get when forking from the launcher process is clean (setting the working dir and clean env variable set by the VM used by the launcher). It should be fine now.
