[Pharo-project] Scalable fonts

by Schwab,Wilhelm K

I needed to create "big" text for annotating images and found that only certain sizes were available. That led me to http://forum.world.st/additional-font-size-td3206897.html I ended up adding the following to my code: FreeTypeFontProvider current families isEmpty ifTrue:[ FreeTypeFontProvider current updateFromSystem. ]. aFont := LogicalFont familyName: 'DejaVu Sans Mono' pointSize:100. It seems to work. Is there a better way to do it? Should there be any helper methods in LogicalFont to do this type of thing? A lazy LogicalFont class>>loadSystemFonts would be less invasive than setting the preference to load fonts on startup, since it could be triggered as needed and cost nothing otherwise. I am thinking of LogicalFont mostly because I learned to look there a long time ago, so it is the first place I go for fonts. Bill

Re: [Pharo-project] [Vm-dev] Debugging Cog crash

by Schwab,Wilhelm K

Levente, Yes, I did follow your instructions, and got the same error message reported in the post I cited. The solution only solution I have found to that problem is the get the image up and running and THEN attach gdb to it. I can't do that, because the vm dies way too early for that to work. So, I would need to attach, or find another solution to the problem. Bill Levente wrote: Did you follow my instructions? If so, then you don't have to attach at all, because you started the VM process from gdb, so gdb is attached to the process already. Just do exactly what I wrote and you'll have what you need. If you need more help, then try the following links (first hits for http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&q=how+to+use+gdb btw): - http://www.unknownroad.com/rtfm/gdbtut/gdbuse.html - http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~gilpin/tutorial/ Levente ________________________________________ From: pharo-project-bounces(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr [pharo-project-bounces(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr] On Behalf Of Schwab,Wilhelm K [bschwab(a)anest.ufl.edu] Sent: Saturday, April 09, 2011 8:19 AM To: Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr; Squeak Virtual Machine Development Discussion Subject: Re: [Pharo-project] [Vm-dev] Debugging Cog crash Is there a debug version of Cog that I can run on the box? I have casually avoided learning how to build Cog in part because that means I can't hack the FFI plugin, which forces me to play by the rules on library paths/ldconfig, etc. It also means that I don't have a build environment ready to go, so I can't readily add syslog() calls to bracket where it quits. gdb isn't helping as described below. If there is something you want me to try, let me know. We have a reproducible Cog crash. ________________________________________ From: pharo-project-bounces(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr [pharo-project-bounces(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr] On Behalf Of Schwab,Wilhelm K [bschwab(a)anest.ufl.edu] Sent: Friday, April 08, 2011 6:03 PM To: Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr; Squeak Virtual Machine Development Discussion Subject: Re: [Pharo-project] [Vm-dev] FW: Debugging Cog crash Levente, I follow on why my shell script did not work.

[Pharo-project] FAQ migration

by Max Leske

I migrated the FAQ to the pharo book. I've added a few comments where corrections / verifications are needed that I couldn't do myself. There are also some formatting issues (tabs are converted to spaces which are used as indents so some code is indented quite a bit more compared to other code). Since the "hard work" is now done, this is a call to everyone to please take a look at the FAQ and update it. Some of the stuff in there is really outdated. I'm calling it a day. Good night. Max
