[Pharo-project] FW: Debugging Cog crash

by Schwab,Wilhelm K

Gratuitous default recipient... If there is a verbose dump option or other diagnostic efforts that will help, I will do my best to run them and report the results. I am fairly certain the vm is 'Croquet Closure Cog VM [CoInterpreter VMMaker-oscog.54]' (can verify later today), but this happened with an earlier Cog one-click too. There is something about the machine (UUID again?) that is different. I do not have root access to it, but I can get to a terminal. Ubuntu 10.10. ________________________________________ From: Schwab,Wilhelm K Sent: Friday, April 08, 2011 7:44 AM To: Mariano Martinez Peck Subject: RE: [Pharo-project] Debugging Cog crash Mariano, I first identified this problem/opportunity a while ago. At the time, there was no log - the vm just died. I can sniff around again as there might be one this time. My question at the time was whether there was something that I could enable to perhaps get more info. The output from the vm is, and I quote<g> "Segmentation fault". There is no other output. Perhaps it does not get far enough to have a call stack??

You still want morph2 to align to right edge of morph. And for you, as a UI designer, it doesn't really matters where framework keeps this information - in parent morph or in morph itself.

You may encode it using different means, but still as i said, if you want such kind of relationship, then you have to put this dependency "knowledge" somewhere. I prefer that morph controlling own layout by himself (parent could instruct child morph to follow specific layout, but the final decision where to put itself should be up to morph iself). Because, for example, if you let parent to control the bounds of its child morphs, then you have a problem. Suppose that you have a string morph, which knows that he has fixed width and height, but its positioning could be arbitrary. So, you setting either right or left anchor: stringMorph anchorLeft: window leftAnchor. or stringMorph anchorRight: window rightAnchor. but not both, because morph could calculate the opposite edge based on its own width. Or, maybe you could do that.. You could set things up like following: | leftAnchor | leftAnchor := window leftAnchor + 10. stringMorph anchorLeft: leftAnchor. stringMorph anchorRight: leftAnchor + stringMorph widthAnchor then in this case, a position of morph is controlled by its parent, while width is maintained by himself. (a morphs which know that they having rigid width or height properties, could simply override widthAnchor/heightAnchor and maintain own constraints in this way). > Fernando -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig.
