[Pharo-project] Monticello in Squeak 3.7 MVC-only Or changeset updater script?
by Stefan Marr Nov. 8, 2010

Nov. 8, 2010

Hi: Does anyone know (perhaps Dale?) how likely it is to get Monticello in a MVC-only image running? I checked the documentation at http://www.wiresong.ca/monticello/v1/docs/getting-started.html and the update IDs seem to be ok. At least my image identifies it self with 'latest update: #5959'. (thats the image: https://github.com/downloads/smarr/RoarVM/minimal-MVC.zip) However, neither the document, nor SqueakMap give me the feeling that I actually know how to start loading it. I found http://ftp.squeak.org/3.11-obsolete/scripts/mc15.st but well, thought I ask here first. If that does not seem to feasible, does anyone know a ready-to-use script to build a change set from a number of Monticello packages automatically taking dependencies into account? Would be nice, if I could hook something into the package saving mechanism that spills out an updated .st file every time I safe a package.

[Pharo-project] opening an OS window from within Pharo, to present a file directory ?
by Torsten Bergmann Nov. 8, 2010

Nov. 8, 2010

>Is there behavior for doing this in Pharo ? >"self openOSWindowOn: aFileDirectory " Your question can mean two things: 1. You ask for a file/folder selection dialog where the user selects a file or folder and you get the name back into Pharo: If you want to use the built in functionality use Polymorphs "FileDialogWindow" by using the services in UITheme class. (see references to class FileDialogWindow. But thats not an OS window. If you want to open an OS ("native") file/folder selection dialog from Pharo then there is currently no platform independent solution. AFAIK until today there is no primitive to do that. Maybe because the OS-systems are not uniform here. For Windows there is a plugin for the open/save dialog provided by the Win32-API: http://kminami.fc2web.com/Squeak/Goodies/Win32FileDialogPlugin/index.html *Side note: Pharo has the same situation as Java here. By default there is an own implementation FileDialogWindow/JFileChooser that does not feel like the native one. Another interpretation of your question: 2. You ask for a way to open a native file explorer/browser window on a given file/directory just to show the contents using the native window: You can use FFI for that on Windows: Win32Shell new shellOpen: 'c:\' Since most browsers display the directory structure and files too you can use the external web browser package and a file URL (see ConfigurationOfExternalWebBrowser) ExternalWebBrowser openOnUrl: 'file://c:/temp' Bye Torsten -- Neu: GMX De-Mail - Einfach wie E-Mail, sicher wie ein Brief!

[Pharo-project] [DEBIAN] latest standard vm package
by Alexander LazareviÄ Nov. 8, 2010

Nov. 8, 2010

Hi! FWIW, I've built a new VM on my machine with the latest sources and latest VMMaker updates (for a standard VM). Thanks Dave for your help on this. As a result here is a debian package from this just in case anyone on Ubuntu or Debian wants to sneak a peek. http://www.lazarevic.de/download/squeak/squeak-vm_4.3.15.2330-1_i386.deb I used the package from the debian and just replaced the sources. I disabled my unfortunate patch for the sources path (this should be removed for good) and had to disable the patch for the browser plugin. So there is no guaranty for nothing on this package and the squeakvm it contains. These are the included vm plugins: "Internal Plugins" "External Plugins" ADPCMCodecPlugin B3DAcceleratorPlugin AsynchFilePlugin B3DEnginePlugin BMPReadWriterPlugin FFIPlugin BalloonEnginePlugin FT2Plugin BitBltSimulation FileCopyPlugin CroquetPlugin HostWindowPlugin DSAPlugin MIDIPlugin DeflatePlugin Mpeg3Plugin DropPlugin UnixAioPlugin FFTPlugin UnixOSProcessPlugin FilePlugin XDisplayControlPlugin FloatArrayPlugin FloatMathPlugin GeniePlugin JPEGReadWriter2Plugin JPEGReaderPlugin JoystickTabletPlugin KlattSynthesizerPlugin LargeIntegersPlugin LocalePlugin Matrix2x3Plugin MiscPrimitivePlugin NewsqueakIA32ABIPlugin RePlugin SecurityPlugin SerialPlugin SlangTestSupportPlugin SocketPlugin SoundCodecPlugin SoundGenerationPlugin SoundPlugin StarSqueakPlugin SurfacePlugin UUIDPlugin Alex

Thanks hannes I think that the XMLWriter offers a bit something similar influenced by seaside DSL.
