VisualWorks Documentation - Previous Versions

Some users still long for certain old documents that are no longer maintained. It's not that they were simply discarded. Rather, they need serious updating, or are intended to be presented online, or integrated with the product, but those plans have not yet been fully realized.

These are the docs most requested, all from VisualWorks 2.5.x:

VisualWorks Tutorial
VisualWorks User's Guide
VisualWorks Object Reference
VisualWorks Cookbook
VisualWorks BOSS chapter - Included in the "Application Developer's Guide" in version 7.2

For porting to VisualWorks from VSE, this doc may be useful:

VisualSmalltalk to VisualWorks: Core Class Convergence

Other miscellaneous documents:

VW 3.x Memory Management paper - Superceded by the "VisualWorks Memory Management" Technical Note in version 7.2
VW 5i Limits Document - Superceded by the "Implementation Limits" Technical Note in version 7.2
