Hi Max: On 18 Oct 2011, at 16:33, Max Leske wrote: > Hi Stefan > > The last build date is today. So what do you mean by "broken"? Same issue as before: Google Reader shows old entries as new. My previous guess was that the guid aren't stable for old entries since that seemed to be the only field in the RSS data that could possibly have caused that. The dates are correct, and I assume the content hasn't changed either.

It is widely acknowledged that a software with a Ã¢â¬ÅgoodÃ¢â¬Â test coverage is more robust against unanticipated execution, thus lowering the maintenance cost. However, insuring a coverage of a good quality is challenging, especially since most of the available test coverage tools do not discriminate software components that require a Ã¢â¬ÅstrongÃ¢â¬Â coverage from the components that require less attention from the unit tests.<br/>Hapao is an innovative test coverage tool, implemented in the Pharo Smalltalk programming language. It employs an effective and intuitive graphical representation to visually assess the quality of the coverage. A combination of appropriate metrics and relations visually shapes methods and classes, which indicates to the programmer whether more effort on testing is required.<br/><br/><a class="open" title="http://hapao.dcc.uchile.cl/" href="http://hapao.dcc.uchile.cl/">http://hapao.dcc.uchile.cl/<br /></a></p></div><div class="part show pict tall"><a href="javascript:void(0)"><img alt="Zoom: home_3.png" title="home_3.png" width="522" height="283" src="http://www.pharo-project.org/pictures/09/nj23pof8gj6v5sbqjbnd0xjq7wonr2/hom…"/></a></div><div class="part text tiny"><p class="pale"><a class="open" title="http://marcusdenker.de" href="http://marcusdenker.de">Marcus Denker</a>, January 23, 2011</p></div><div class="part cb-widget tiny cb-share"><a class="cb-mail" title="Share this article on E-Mail" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.pharo-project.org/news?recommend=hapao-testing"><span>Share this article on E-Mail</span></a> <a rel="nofollow" class="cb-twitter" title="Share this article on Twitter" href="http://twitter.com/home?status=I'm+currently+reading+http://www.pharo-project.org/news?article=hapao-testing"><span>Share this article on Twitter</span></a> <a rel="nofollow" class="cb-facebook" title="Share this article on Facebook" href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?t=Hapao Testing&u=http://www.pharo-project.org/news?article=hapao-testing"><span>Share this article on Facebook</span></a> <a rel="nofollow" class="cb-delicious" title="Share this article on Delicious" href="http://del.icio.us/post?title=Hapao Testing&url=http://www.pharo-project.org/news?article=hapao-testing"><span>Share this article on Delicious</span></a> <a rel="nofollow" class="cb-digg" title="Share this article on Digg" href="http://digg.com/submit?title=Hapao Testing&url=http://www.pharo-project.org/news?article=hapao-testing"><span>Share this article on Digg</span></a> </div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>IRC meeting notes</title><author>alienhard(a)netstyle.ch (board)</author><link>http://www.pharo-project.org/news?article=irc-meeting-notes</link><pubDate>Tue, 07 Dec 2010 21:05:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6373608c-e57a-442a-a1c5-195e1f532525</guid><description><![CDATA[This was our first IRC meeting, which we plan to repeat once a month]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="part lead tall"><h6>This was our first IRC meeting, which we plan to repeat once a month.

Current representation of source in the .changes and .sources files is very weak. What we would like to have is a proper code model. ESUG is paying a small company to rewrite from scratch SqueakSource. INRIA is looking into providing Webdav access on their infrastructure. Another missing area is descriptions of the external packages to answer where the code is stored, who the maintainer is, etc. <br/><br/>* Comments: we need more and better comments. We have HelpSystem but it is not used so far. The main obstacle is that one needs to subclass from CustomHelp, which creates an unnecessary dependency on the help package.

Indeed, when you go through stunnel, Zn will put 'localhost' in the Host: header, while AWS will be unhappy with this. It also might be important for the actual signature (I don't remember if Host: is included). Thanks for the feedback, this might safe others a lot of time ! Is your code available somewhere on SqueakSource ? I assume that you saw the 'Zinc-AWS' example that I did some time ago ? Regards, Sven

Grease, Seaside, Magritte, Pier, ... have very well statically defined dependencies declared in each package (extension methods in GRPackage). There are numerous tests that ensure consistency (they are verified with each build). Dale has written tests that verify that the Grease declarations and Metacello definitions are in sync (don't know if they pass, they are not run if Metacello is not in the image). Furthermore, I have repeatedly posted dependencies graphs of various parts of the system. Also Jannik has repeatedly produced matrices with dependency information (I could never understand them). Either way, I thought we were are all fluent in one or the other tool to tell us outright about broken dependencies? > It would cost you 3 min and it costs me hours but apparently your are right and I'm wrong and this is my stone. > So I will continue.

[Pharo-project] Pharo Issue 4910

by Sven Van Caekenberghe

Hello Laurent, Regarding Pharo Issue 4910, http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=4910 Did you see my reply ? Did you get any further ? I would really like to solve this problem. I have described it before, but here is what I think happens: - you start the ZnZincServerAdaptor, which implies creating a listener socket and process - you test it to see if it is running by doing one or more requests - this means that at least one connection and worker process are alive - you save the image - the server receives a shutdown and stops cleanly - since this is a ZnMultiThreadedServer and not the experimental ZnManagingMultiThreadedServer it leaves the connection and the worker process alone - you restart the image - the server receives a startup and starts working - the worker process is revived and will continue its blocking read for the next request - this signals a primitive failed and causes a hang/crash Now, using the lastest Zn, the primitive failed should be caught and the connection and worker should be cleaned up silently, unless there is also a VM problem, but I don't think so. (It would also be possible to make sure that no open connections are alive, close the browser that you used, check the Process Monitor) Another option is to use the experimental ZnManagingMultiThreadedServer which does track its own connections and cleans them up, which should result in the worker processes stopping cleanly. The next code requires the very latest Zinc-Seaside adaptor, you could try: ZnZincServerAdaptor new port: 8080; serverClass: ZnManagingMultiThreadedServer; start; yourself Regards, Sven

Re: [Pharo-project] ConfigurationOfGrease stable does not load in Pharo 1.3

Hi doru I saw that we were working on parallel. Even better two idiots on the same configuration... I saw that you merged. I just published the new version with stable: spec <symbolicVersion: #'stable'> spec for: #'common' version: '1.0.6.2'. spec for: #'pharo1.3.x' version: '1.6.0.2'. So that we have a milestones for 1.3 and 1.4 will be working.
