by Schwab,Wilhelm K Dec. 8, 2009

Does Scriptloader loadFFI work in RC1? It's barking at me about FFIConstants. Bill

[Pharo-project] Is there in Pharo a class with the functionality of PrintingConverter?
by csrabak＠bol.com.br Dec. 8, 2009

Dec. 8, 2009

I think it is specific in VW (I don't remember in Dolphin) but for formating numbers in strings, etc. like this class does. Tried looking for classes and methods (w/method finder) e/o success! -- Cesar Rabak

Hi, I'm trying to load FFI on a squeak-dev image (496 09.11.04) and I'm having a DNU here: externalFunctionDeclaration "Parse the function declaration for a call to an external library." | descriptorClass callType retType externalName args argType module fn | descriptorClass := Smalltalk at: #ExternalFunction ifAbsent:[nil]. descriptorClass == nil ifTrue:[^false]. callType := descriptorClass callingConventionFor: here. ------------------------------------------------------------ ^HERE Does anybody knows what happens?

[Pharo-project] SmallDictionary>>removeAll or >>empty?
by Simon Denier Dec. 7, 2009

Dec. 7, 2009

Stupid question: how do I remove all entities from a SmallDictionary Let's take: d := SmallDictionary new. d add: $d -> 4. d add: $e -> 5. d If I do d empty then d size = 0 and d do: behaves as if there is nothing BUT someone can still perform d at: $d -> 5 If I do d removeAll I get a MessageNotUnderstood: SmallInteger>>key because #removeAll inherited from Collection expects a different structure -- Simon

[Pharo-project] A centralized repository (Going a step forward Gofer and Metacello)
by Esteban Lorenzano Dec. 7, 2009

Dec. 7, 2009

Hi all, Iâm begining to transfer all my projects to metacello (I think this is the best package manager present today for pharo), and I have an idea I want to share and discuss: I think we need a metacello based centered repository. The universe doesnât fit with metacello and squeakmap even less. So this is my idea (it is based on âibiblioâ for maven/java and apt-get for ubuuntu): -we can create a project on squeaksource called âPharoMetacelloRepositoryâ, where people can put its public metacello configuration packages (for example ConfigurationOfSeaside30, ConfigurationOfDeimos, etc.). -we should integrate metacello to pharo core (like Gofer now) -weâll need to create a new class âLoaderâ What âLoaderâ does? it loads versions from âmetacello repositoriesâ, for example: Loader default latest: âSeaside30â. âThis will load latest version of ConfigurationOfSeaside30â Loader class>>#default answers a loader pointing to âPharoMetacelloRepositoryâ, but you could define others (for your private projects). How Loader works? 1) validate loading a valid metacello configuration package (weâll need to define this later 2) load metacello package 3) do something like âMetacelloConfigurationClass project loadLatestVersionâ (for #latest), and the corresponding sends for specific versions, etc. I think this will solve any package management problem, by using something already present (SqueakSource), and of course, we could think on better repository places/formats later (but we will be âon the roadâ) So, what do you think? btw: If the community agree, Iâm offering my self to implement this idea ;) Cheers, Esteban
