This week (41/2020) on the Issue Tracker

Hi,

We had the idea to try to do a summary of all the things that got merged during the week.
I tried for a while an automatic tool (a Probot bot), but that only works for some weeks and
then stops (I think they have some rate limiting problem for the bot).

And it was not really useful… as it just listed all PRs and Issues.

This one puts a focus on merged PRs to Pharo itself only and sorts them by category with a
little bit of context.

Parser/Syntax Highlighting

Improvement to make the prior huge improvement on parsing of syntactically wrong
code much more usable:

Several fixes to the parser and syntax feedback #7411
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7411

First class Variables / Compiler cleanup

Lots of work has been done to unify all meta objects describing Variables into one
hierarchy (see Variable and subclasses). This in turn enables many
cleanups and simplification on the level of the name analysis of the Compiler and
the API that the debugger uses to read Variables. Nearly finished, but some smaller
steps remain:

Variable-scope-addTests #7435
	(all Variable objects should know the scope where they are from)
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7435

Name Analysis: Lookup Slots In Class #7403
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7403

reduce-sends-doSemanticAnalysis #7402
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7402

7405-Debug-It-is-broken #7406
	(this was a bad side effect of a refactoring needed to be able to move
	 the call of #doSemanticAnalysis into the Compiler)
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7406

Fluid Class Definions

This is ongoing work to have a better class definiton for what is now called
"slot enabeled class defintion" (the one where one can use First class Variables
and where the Layout class is shown explicitly)

7444-Prepare-fluid-class-integration-part-4 #7445
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7445

7437-prepare-fluid-class-integration-part-3 #7438
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7438

7412-preparing-the-integration-of-fluid-class-part-2 #7434
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7434

7431-preparing-fluid-class-Part-1 #7433
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7433

Debugger

Debugger-should-show-Workspace-bindings #7408
	A try to simplify how the workspace binding is found when debugging.
	Leads to many problems, will be reverted.
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7408
	
7362-Package-Debugger-Filters-is-not-used-and-can-be-removed #7430
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7430
	
Added a closeAllDebugger method to trait TDebugger class, that users … #7328
	(just a first step, not yet solved)
		https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7328
		
Exposing signalContext in Exception #7417
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7417
	

ReadOnly Literals

The compiler and the VM has support to make literals read-only. As the ability
to change literals without the code reflecting it has lead to ugly bugs in the
past, turning this on looks like a good idea:

SourceFileBufferedReadWriteStreamTest-readOnlyLiteral #7418
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7418
	
betterName-isSharedLiteral #7432
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7432
	
Enable-ReadOnly-Literals #7393
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7393

Bug Fixes

Background failures log in CI #7337
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7337


5956-Wrong-format-of-DoubleWordArray #7404
	Ongoing work. All code is merged, but now we need to still see that we
	can create classes like that with the bootrap
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7404
	
Fix_for_PluggableSliderMorph #7415
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7415


7414-division-of-number-by-array-fails-with-doesNotUnderstand-isZero #7425
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7425
Cleaning integer division #7436
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7436

Comments

	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7447

Cleanups

7367-pragmas-not-needed-textEditorShiftedMenu-fileListContentMenu #7426
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7426
	
Fixed #7420. Added transformation rules to some non-transforming deprecations 
that were identified as automatable in the Deprewriter paper #7427
	https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/7427
	
7364-RBSelectorNode-has-unclassified-methods #7424

Thanks, Marcus! Indeed this one seems much nicer :)
