Re: [Pharo-project] focus and moving windows

Looks like it takes the current mouse position after the drag threshold (pixels) has been exceed rather than the original mouse location as the offset...

Re: [Pharo-project] Dictionary as a Set

by Igor Stasenko

There was a discussion about Dicts/Sets on squeak dev more than year ago http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/2007-June/117840.html IMO making Dictionary a subclass of Set was mistake. But there's little what can be done without risk of breaking many code. Some related problem - about letting Sets include nils and 'self' as elements, also was discussed on squeak-dev. It can be done w/o breaking much compatibility. 2008/12/30 nicolas cellier <ncellier(a)ifrance.com>: > Sorry to repost, seems that gmane did not like my first attempt... > > > StÃ©phane Ducasse <stephane.ducasse@...> writes: > > > > > > On Dec 29, 2008, at 12:23 PM, Alexandre Bergel wrote: > > > > > Dear List, > > > > > > I was wondering whether I am the only one shocked when I see this: > > > > > > (Set new add: #b -> 'B'; yourself) includes: #b -> 'B' ====> true > > > (Set new add: #b -> 'B'; yourself) includes: 'B' ====> false > > > > this is correct > > > > > (Dictionary new add: #b -> 'B'; yourself) includes: #b -> 'B' > > > ====> false > > > (Dictionary new add: #b -> 'B'; yourself) includes: 'B' ====> true > > > > we should check the semantics of includes: > > > > > Dictionary inherits from Set.

Re: [Pharo-project] FreeType scanning Font folders

by Gary Chambers

A scan would be needed when the image is moved to a different platform (Linux vs Win32, say). Just saying as I develop on Win for a Linux end-user application. After making the deployment image it was neccessary to load on Linux and save again to get the correct fonts. Might be different now in the latest FreeType since TextStyles are no longer used...

Re: [Pharo-project] the button of the last watery are gorgeous!

by Gary Chambers

Thanks. Might get the buttons to honour the cornerStyle property for more flexibility (will choose from rounded or squarer form sets). Trouble with button sizes is down to use of proportional layout for button areas (essentially fixed size). Would be better to use table layouts and setting offests from minimum height etc. Hope you all have had a nice Christmas break.

Each value of this Bag is indexed with a unique key. It is a Bag because: a) multiple values can be in the dictionary: (Dictionary new) at: 'one' put: 1; at: 'first' put: 1; yourself. b) values are unordered: | d1 d2 | (d1 := Dictionary new: 3) at: 'one' put: 1; at: 'two' put: 2. (d2 := Dictionary new: 4) at: 'one' put: 1; at: 'two' put: 2. stream := (String new: 64) writeStream. d1 do: [:v | stream print: v; cr]. d2 do: [:v | stream print: v; cr]. stream contents. And as you can see, #do: does apply on values, as would #collect: #select: #reject: #includes: etc... The fact that Dictionary is implemented with Associations could be seen as a private implementation-defined feature. Though, by tradition, associationsDo: has been made a public interface, so as the possibility to directly add an Association. But semantically, Dictionary is not a Set of Associations. Example: (Set new) add: $a->65; add: $a->1; yourself. (Dictionary new) add: $a->65; add: $a->1; yourself. Dictionary could be viewed as a Set of keys. From that POV, it shared enough property with Set to be implemented as a subclass. That's all. I proposed once to detach Set and Dictionary and derive them from a common ancestor just for clarity...
