Feed Description: James Robertson comments on Cincom Smalltalk, the Smalltalk development community, and IT trends and issues in general.
We are about to release a new version of Cincom Smalltalk - both VisualWorks and ObjectStudio. There's a lot of cool new things coming up - there are details on the referenced page, but here are a few tidbits:
Opentalk for ObjectStudio - this will allow object level communication between VW and OS applications. That means that OS developers will be able to expose their business objects to all the interfaces supported by VisualWorks
New Platforms! We are releasing WinCE support in preview (beta). Check the wiki page for processor details
Squeak plugin support in the VM - the plugin support that Squeak uses is now available to VisualWorks. This allows for tighter OS integration, if desired
And there's lots of other good stuff as well. Check the Wiki page for details. We expect to release in November.
