In my case, Seaside&#39;s portability layer had already been ported to VAST so I modified Magritte to use that. I also changed the packaging around a little bit.<br /><br />In theory, it should now be much easier for other platforms (particularly ones that already have Seaside ported) although I would say the port is a bit &quot;rough&quot; in the sense that I got it working but it the platform-specific code could still do with being cleaned up.<br /><br />If you want to try porting Magritte to another platform, I would recommend starting by porting Grease from the Seaside30 repository and then using my modified Magritte source code which is currently at <a href="http://source.lukas-renggli.ch/magritte2/" rel="nofollow">http://source.lukas-renggli.ch/magritte2/</a> as a starting point.<br /><br />I&#39;ve been meaning to write a post on Grease for a little while now so maybe I&#39;ll try to do that and touch on porting Magritte with it at the same time.Julian Fitzellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15210699321250607163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7664597274807100637.post-5790767454135161012009-11-18T05:20:32.666-08:002009-11-18T05:20:32.666-08:00It would be interesting to hear how easy/hard it was, and what are the most difficult points in porting Magritte to another platform?<br /><br />Although it is not officiall part of the Seaside stack, I guess many Seasiders would probably consider it necessary.<br /><br />So do you have some word of advice to people who would like to port Magritte to some other Smalltalk like Dolphin?<br /><br />Thanks!Davorin Rusevljanhttp://www.cloud208.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7664597274807100637.post-31479346229062149482009-10-19T08:42:52.524-07:002009-10-19T08:42:52.524-07:00Thanks...
