Effective 05-Sept-2011, this repository is the new home for VMMaker (previously athttp://squeaksource.com/VMMaker.html)This package incorporates the Smalltalk source code (Slang) for the virtual machine, including its simulation environment, as well as the code generator and toolset for creating the VM portions not handwritten in C (or whatever). The development environment is described in"Two Decades of Smalltalk VM Development: Live VM Development through Simulation Tools", Eliot Miranda, Clément Béra, Elisa Gonzalez Boix, Dan Ingalls.VMMaker.oscog is the core package that defines the OpenSmalltalk-VM, which is the default/production VM for Squeak, Cuis and Pharo. The image directory of the OpenSmalltalk-VM project atgithub/OpenSmalltalk-VMincludes scripts for building a VMMaker.oscog image in Squeak which is the supported means of creating a development environment for the OpenSmalltalk-VM. See e.g. buildspurtrunkvmmaker64image.sh.The generated source and platform support code for the current family of OpenSmalltalk Cog/Spur VMs is maintained on GitHub in thegithub/OpenSmalltalk-VMrepository. This corresponds to VMMaker.oscog and related packages here.The platform support code for the traditional interpreter VM, corresponding to VMMaker (no ".oscog" suffix) in this repository, is maintained in Subversion atsqueakvm.org).License for VMMaker is MIT with portions covered by Apache License Version 2.0.
