[Pharo-project] ivars in ChronologyConstants
by Torsten Bergmann May 17, 2009

May 17, 2009

I'm curious why the instance variables "seconds offset jdn nanos" are left in the shared pool class "ChronologyConstants". There is no accessor and the bindings are represented by class variables anyway (as the comment in SharedPool states). It's interesting that these instance variables are the same as in DateAndTime class. Squeak looks the same. When I remove all instance-vars in ChronologyConstants the tests will still run - so can we remove them? Anyone able to enlighten me?

[Pharo-project] [ANN] OCompletion improves the accuracy of eCompletion
by Romain Robbes May 16, 2009

May 16, 2009

Dear Pharo users, OCompletion is an extension to ECompletion. Like ECompletion, it completes the names of methods as you write them in order to save you some typing. The O in OCompletion stands for Omniscient and Omnipresent. OCompletion is much more accurate than ECompletion. We tested it on the development history of several projects (see http://www.inf.unisi.ch/phd/robbes/papers/ASE2008-completion.pdf) Across several hundred thousands tests of the completion, OCompletion's algorithm scores a 70 (out of 100), while the eCompletion's algorithm scores a 12. To achieve this level of accuracy, it learns from your usage of squeak and proposes to you methods you are more likely to use. OCompletion shows a small, non-instrusive completion menu with potential completions as you type method names. You don't need to call it explicitely with tab. Just press tab to insert a match, or the down arrow to select the next match. To install it on Squeak or Pharo, simply execute the following line in your image: Installer squeaksource project: 'OCompletion'; install: 'OCLoader' Cheers, Romain -- Romain Robbes http://www.inf.unisi.ch/phd/robbes

[Pharo-project] Excluding classes from Test Coverage
by Oscar Nierstrasz May 15, 2009

May 15, 2009

Just checked in as http://www.squeaksource.com/PharoInbox/SUnitGUI-onierstrasz.38.mcz Now you can declare classes to exclude from coverage analysis by defining #classNamesNotUnderTest on the class side of your test to return an array of names of those classes. http://scg.unibe.ch/wiki/faq/pharofaq/howToCheckTestCoverage - on

[Pharo-project] Pharo splash
by Torsten Bergmann May 15, 2009

May 15, 2009

Sorry for bloating your mailbox but in case someone is in the need for a splash screen for presenting Pharo you will find one attached. Otherwise delete this mail. This is also in preparation of a Win32 setup bundle. On Win32 you can enable the splash using the Squeak/Pharo.ini file (see [1]) Thx T.

Re: [Pharo-project] Iso-Collections

Guido Stepken wrote: >LSWVST introduces a new object-type - IsoCollections. Iso-Collections >stores type information of its elements only once." That's nice, but not enough. Collections with more than a few thousand elements should use multiple blocks of memory (e.g. btree) to have acceptable insert performance. >Hmmm, opening a simple Array of 1.000.000 elements consumes 4 megabytes >in Pharo ... The point being? In a 64bit environment it will be 8MB. Only for bit/ byte sets or compressed collections it will be less. Cheap pc's currently have up to 16GB of memory, so the first 2.000.000.000 elements are no problem. Stephan
