[Pharo-project] rack/wsgi/ring for smalltalk
by Sean Allen March 28, 2011

March 28, 2011

Is there a smalltalk equivalent for rack/wsgi/ring etc out there? I have an idea I'm going to play with that would be best served by building on something like rack. If there isn't one already, I'll implement one first and then move on to the idea that builds on it. If there is one, I'd rather see if it meets my needs and use it. Any pointers to anything appreciated. For anyone not familiar with rack et al: They are basically' middleware' layers providing a standard interface between webservers and applications. Middleware is a little deceptive... a better description might be that it is an interface that allows you to hook into between a webserver and other end points by either hooking up an application or middleware ( authentication, file serving ) that can be composed together as part of a specific application. http://rack.rubyforge.org/ https://github.com/mmcgrana/ring http://www.wsgi.org/wsgi/

[Pharo-project] Which methods are really not executed?
by Mariano Martinez Peck March 28, 2011

March 28, 2011

Hi folks. I would like to know which are the messages that are not really executed, thus not being intercepted by proxies. So far, I know: 1) MessageNode >> initialize MacroSelectors := #( ifTrue: ifFalse: ifTrue:ifFalse: ifFalse:ifTrue: and: or: whileFalse: whileTrue: whileFalse whileTrue to:do: to:by:do: caseOf: caseOf:otherwise: ifNil: ifNotNil: ifNil:ifNotNil: ifNotNil:ifNil:). those are inlined by the compiler... 2) Special shorcut bytecodes that are in "Smalltalk specialSelectors" / "ParseNode classVarNamed: 'StdSelectors'" / "Smalltalk specialObjectsArray at: 24" Here I have a question...if I understand correctly, in this list of selectors there are 3 cases: 2.1) methods may or may not be executed depending on the receiver/arguments. For example 1 + 2 will never send the message #+ to 1. but 1 + 'mariano' will do. 2.2) methods that are NEVER sent, like #class and #== 2.3) methods that are ALWAYS sent, like #new, #next, #nextPut:, #size, etc. So...did I understand correclty this part? are there more cases where a message may not be really executed? thanks Mariano

[Pharo-project] A stupid magritte question :(
by StÃ©phane Ducasse March 27, 2011

March 27, 2011

Hi all and (lukas in particular) I have an object which hold a list of strings and I would like to describe it using magritte so I thought that I should use a MAContainer. But how should I specify the fact that the elements are of a specific class? Stef
