[Pharo-project] Notifications of windows opening/closing/focus
by Torsten Bergmann Jan. 8, 2010

Jan. 8, 2010

>I don't particularly like the naming. +1 Especially I dislike the "Morphic" in the name. When I implement a custom window I want to react on simple events/ announcements like Activated, MouseHover, WindowClosing, WindowClosed, SizeChanged, ... independent of the current UI frameworks name. I think WinForms (.NET) and Java UI builders are a good template to find appropriate names and events that should be supported at a minimum. This also reduces the changes when switching/porting/adapting code to a different/refactored UI framework in a possible "life after morphic" (TM) time. It will also allow for better naming of the event handler methods #onWindowClosed handling WindowClosed vs. #onMorphicCreationWindowAnnouncementAnnounced ;) just my 2 cents bye T. -- Preisknaller: GMX DSL Flatrate fÃ¼r nur 16,99 Euro/mtl.! http://portal.gmx.net/de/go/dsl02

[Pharo-project] Pharo testers.... WE NEED YOU!!!
by Mariano Martinez Peck Jan. 8, 2010

Jan. 8, 2010

Ok, you already know the idea. Damien, or the person that build the next Pharo dev and web images will send those Pharo beta testers a private email with the link to download the image. No ANN and now update is done yet to the website. Then the betatesters use that image as much as possible for a couple of days. Report bugs if necessary and if it is ok, the image is released. Regarding the list of beta testers would be perfect if we cover the combination of OS (Linux, Mac, Windows) and the browser (OB, O2). But we cannot pretend too much. Take into account that not all the people can work with a new image very easily because they have to migrate data ...etc..Others can just download the project from MC and start to work :) So...here is the list, if you offer yourself, it would be cool to know: OS, VM version, Dev or Web, browser you usually work, 32 o 64 bits, I will then collect this and I will put it in the wiki. - Mariano Martinez Peck. Mac OS, Squeak 4.2.2beta1U.app, Dev, OB, 32 bits - Stan Shepherd WHO ELSE IS IN THE LIST ?? cheers and happy new year!!

[Pharo-project] [ANN] Icons for Mac users
by Mariano Martinez Peck Jan. 7, 2010

Jan. 7, 2010

Hi folks. Once month before I was happy with my Linux box and having my Pharo icons for .sources, .changes, .image, and vm. Now I have a mac, and I have the old squeak icons. So.....I created the ones for Pharo :) I attach a zip file with the files. What you have to do is: 1) Go to your vm (for example Squeak 4.2.2beta1U.app), and copy it (backup) with another name in case you don't like the icons 2) Go to the original VM -> right button -> Show package content 3) Uncompress, copy and replace my attached files for the ones that are in /Contents/Resources/ 4) A reboot may help to see all the changes That's all. I hope you like it. Cheers Mariano

Hi guys Sometimes I'm not in good mood. Today I was in a bad bad mood. Quite bad even badder. I was wondering why I was doing all that and the rest. What was the use to do Pharo if we get Squeak doing exactly the same - Ok we were right long time ago but still seeing all the removal of crappy code we begged to be removed and got bashed for and also doing all that effort and seeing it redone was not helping. Being right sometimes is not even cool :) So a plain bad day.... cold and rainy. I was frustrated that I cannot be somebody else, doing stuff full time and no other duties and going faster. In short nothing was working and I was a frustation ball like I'm good at being. But my kids were there and we had to go swimming! After going swimming and not thinking then thinking and discussing with some remote friends and emails. (Thanks guys you know who you are) also thinking about other people's attention and remarks in other contexts, my good mood came back even stronger than before because I came up to the conclusion that my remote friends were right (BTW thanks pharoers some of you inspire me today during my bad mood - alain, henrik, danny, lukas...) So what is the conclusion of all that? - I have a cool job (one of the best research positions in europe - not easy everyday but cool and with people supporting me with my crazy idea....imagine coding in smalltalk building an international team doing smalltalkish stuff). - we can invest for 5 years or even 10. Close your eyes and imagine we can decide now what we want to do now for the next 10 years and do it because we decided that this is fun. Amazing. No clients, no venture guys telling us the truth of life. - To a friend to which I was saying that I'm not that smart, that guy told me that smart is not the only measure: you can measure your impact, the books you wrote, the energy that other people took and got inspired and all kind of other measures.... :) So I can tell you I was down but this is good because I could think about what I really want to do. And I want to have an innovative Smalltalk system that can be used to develop business and innovative. (for example I would like to see if the new event system can be used to save Genie - one of the coolest handwriting recognition system I see). So I will not be extra-smart but I will learn and I will do it bit by bit. And I want to make it fun and beautiful. May be we will be able to go faster (it depends mainly on you guys :)) but I want 10 years or 15 or even 20 years of fun with a cool system and it is there in my hand (at three keystrokes from my keuboard). We will build it. Stef (sorry for the one of you that have to listen my bad mood I'm curing myself).
