[Glass] [GemStone-Smalltalk] GemStone/S 64 Bit 2.4.6 release

[Dale K. Henrichs]

Johan,

Well, even though you go through the upgrade (i.e. reload all of your code), it might not be as bad as the 3.1 upgrade since you are basically removing and re-adding all of the methods ..... the underlying base image is relatively unchanged.

Whereas with 3.1 your code has to be ported to 3.x ....

I would suggest that you try running through the a test upgrade to see if things are as bad as you think and I'd definitely be interested in hearing about the issues that cause you to "give up" ...

Dale

| Never mind, I found the upgrade instructions ;-)
