[Pharo-project] There is life in Mars. A post explaining current status

by Esteban Lorenzano

Hi all, Several months passed without Mars news, and I'm trying to correct that (it is "some kind" a compromise to publish some news at least once a month, starting from now... so people can see our advances). I prepared a very long post explaining last months and next steps we want to make (to long to add it as a simple mail to the list). If you are interested, you can read it here: http://smallworks.com.ar/blogs/The+Martian+Chronicles/2011-03-14-The-fly-to… Cheers, Esteban

Re: [Pharo-project] Issue 3815 in pharo: Filing in Class comments raises an error

Comment #14 on issue 3815 by ryd...(a)gmail.com: Filing in Class comments raises an error http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3815 So, it's ok to leave stuff we broke between versions broken if we intend to replace it with something better in some future version? I don't see the logic in that.

[Pharo-project] Jtalk, a Smalltalk for web developers

by Nicolas Petton

Hi, I would like to share a project I'm working on on my spare time: Jtalk Smalltalk. http://nicolaspetton.github.com/jtalk https://github.com/NicolasPetton/jtalk Jtalk is an implementation of the Smalltalk language that compiles into JavaScript. Some features: - it is written in itself (including the parser/compiler) - it is self-contained - it compiles into efficient JS code - it uses the Squeak chunk format - Pharo is considered as the reference implementation I think Jtalk can be compared to CoffeeScript[1], Objective-J[2] or Clamato[3], from which it reuses some ideas and code. Jtalk includes an IDE with a class browser, transcript and workspace, an HTML canvas similar to Seaside and a jQuery binding. It is still a young piece of code, and some important features are still missing/incomplete. Cheers, Nicolas Petton [1] http://jashkenas.github.com/coffee-script/ [2] http://cappuccino.org/ [3] http://clamato.net

Re: [Pharo-project] Issue 3581 in pharo: [Failing test] 1.1.1 Full: MethodWrappers.Tests.ObjectAsOneTimeMethodWrapperTest.testInstallOnClassCategory

by pharo＠googlecode.com

Comment #11 on issue 3581 by marianopeck: [Failing test] 1.1.1 Full: MethodWrappers.Tests.ObjectAsOneTimeMethodWrapperTest.testInstallOnClassCategory http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3581 The problem is that if you use addSelector:withMethod then you will need to implement a lot of messages, like #methodClass: , #selector: , #pragmas, etc. In summary, a lot of methods from CompiledMethod. Notice that ObjectAsMethodWrapper is subclass of Object, not CompiledMethod. Cheers Mariano
