[Pharo-users] Pharo VM Release - v9.0.21

[teso...@gmail.com]

Hello,
  I have released a new version of the Pharo VM for Pharo 9, Pharo 10 and
Pharo 11. This VM is accessible right now from Zero-Conf, updating it in
the Pharo Launcher or using the usual downloads (as described in
pharo.org/download).

This version includes a series of bug fixes and upgrades on the third-party
libraries.

Changelog:

- Implementing High resolution clock for ARM64 (Used during profiling)
- Updating third party libraries for all the graphic layer.
- Fixing a performance regression on the allocation of opcodes and fix-ups.
Cleaning only the ones that are going to be used.
Like this, this version has the same speed than before when
allocating in the stack.
- Correctly handling the encoding of the command line arguments of the VM
(Windows)
- Allocating the opcodes and fixup structs only once and reusing them
(Reducing risk of C Stack Overflow)

Thanks a lot, and any doubt please let me know.
Cheers,

Pablo on behalf of the whole Pharo team.

[Pharo-users] Using ZnResponse>>#redirect: to pass an error message

[vinref]

Hello

I catch an error like this:

```
[ self insertNewUser.
```

```
  ZnResponse redirect: self request url ] on: TbDbError do: [ :err | | ent |
```

```
  ZnResponse redirect: '/error/db_error' ] ].
```

I would like to pass 

```
err messageText 
```

to the page at: ‘/error/db_error’, to display to the user. I prefer not to 
cache it is a session or use a Js hack to do it. Does someone have a strategy 
for passing objects via a ZnResponse instance? I did try

```
ZnResponse redirect: aUrl entity: anEntity
```

but the entity is discarded by the time it gets to the page.

Vince

Hi

To answer my own question, I passed the error message as a parameter in the url:

```
[   self insertNewUser.
```

```
ZnResponse redirect: self request url ] on: TbDbError do: [ :err | | 
url |
```

```
  url := (ZnUrl fromString: 'error/db_error/')
```

```
queryAt: 'msg' put: err messageText;
```

```
yourself.   
```

```
  ZnResponse redirect: url ]
```
