[Pharo-project] [OT] Recommended free blog hosting

by Mariano Martinez Peck

Hi guys. Since a lot of time (almost 2 years) I wanted to start writing all the small things I learn along my work. I have already done some pier apps, but I don't want right now. I just want something like Blogger, Wordpress, etc, where I can start up a blog and free hosting. I have a personal blog under Wordpress, and I like it, but I don't know about programming...is there a better alternative? I mean, for color highlighting and things like that. Thanks in advance, mariano

Perfect. If everything goes well, we can do after a GlorpDBX one ;) BTW, I think it is a good moment to said that our website has a lot of documentation and we welcome any feedback. In www.squeakdbx.org you can find a lot of documentation. If you dare, there are also some videos of talks/presentations we have been doing in the last years...but we aware...I have an ugly spanglish voice :) Luckely, there are slides also: http://www.squeakdbx.org/media > > Let's do a first one, we'll improve later. > > Laurent. > > I cc'ed the SqueakDBX mailing list since I am all ears to hear what people >> want to see about SqueakDBX.

Re: [Pharo-project] Opal decompiler: I've been a big good ... I've been a bit bad ...

I guess for now we might keep it on Eliot's proposal of just transforming to an undefined field access; but we'll see. > One of the ideas is of course to collect the methods that get affected by a change and report back to the user; just like with all other types of errors that can occur during class modification. We have a pretty cool model already so it's becoming increasingly easy to install such hooks. I hate self error: 'your class is invalid because of something somewhere', and we'll get that all fixed! I would love to have real object that contains compilation error (instead of Transcript show:) so that we can build tool to fix them :) >> If you create a copy of method, copy the method's trailer. >> >> >> trailer := oldMethod trailer. >> >> newMethod := CompiledMethod newBytes: ... trailerBytes: ***trailer*** >> nArgs: ... nTemps: .. nStack: ... nLits: ... primitive: ... > It seems that the opal compiler has a compiledMethodWith: trailer.

Pretty cool to see methods updated on bytecode level without slow recompilation.
