Open source FFI implementation for GemStone/S 64 Bit GemBuilder for C 3.x

GemStone-GCI

• GemBuilder for C 3.2.x manual [pdf]
• GemBuilder for C 3.3.x manual [pdf]

Prerequisites

For the moment, you must grab a Pharo 3.0 image and vm from here. Then, copy the libgci* files from the Pharo VM of a tODE client image into the just downloaded Pharo 3.0 VM.

Installation

In the Pharo 3.0 image execute:

Metacello new
    baseline: 'GemStoneGCI';
    repository: 'github://marianopeck/GemStone-GCI:master/repository';
    load.

Running Tests

First step to run the unit tests is to create a stone for running them. For that, we recommend using GsDevKit_home

createStone GemStone-GCI-Testing 3.3.0

Otherwise, you can use an already existing stone and change the method #testingSessionDescription.

Second step is to load GemStoneGCI in GemStone. For that, open tODE against the created stone and execute the same load code as for Pharo.
