So finally I remove from CMakeLists.txt add_subdirectory("vm-display-X11") add_subdirectory("vm-sound-ALSA") and managed to build the VM I want.

Thanks Levente.

[Pharo-project] BDD: Cucumber Toy Project

by Sean P. DeNigris

I'm playing with Polymorph to make a BDD tool like Ruby's Cucumber (but infinitely better because we're in a live image and don't have to cram the infinite richness of our imagination into dead text, lol). It's amazing how a few lines of code got me *very* close to an active essay of the cucumber book's first example. Here is a screenshot of the Cucumber book: http://forum.world.st/file/n3742986/Screen_Shot_2011-08-14_at_10.30.11_AM.p… And here is a quick Polymorph view: http://forum.world.st/file/n3742986/Screen_Shot_2011-08-14_at_10.29.44_AM.p… Hopefully I'll have something we can play with by ESUG!

Re: [Pharo-project] #name

by Schwab,Wilhelm K

I looked at this early on, and decided that since Object>>name is defined in terns of #printString, there couldn't be anything terribly important happening with the result, because #printSring is not under the system's control. I have freely added name as an instance variable in many classes. Process>>name and #name: are interesting. I didn't do the hash part, but I advocated for adding the name aspect to Process, and was very much surprised to see it adopted. This was in the days when most requests for changes prompted a reply something like "Do you realize that YOU can do that to YOUR image?" - emphasis added, but it was always clearly present. However, it has apparently been there since 2002. If there were going to be problems, I think we would have seen them by now :) That of course does nothing to fix the real problem, but I think it does provide evidence that one can safely ignore Object>>name.

Yes name is object is quite a bad smell to me. This is on my radar to nule setname: and friends.

And several implementers that could be using more descriptive selectors, too, which makes answering the question harder, of course. > On the flip side, should the system use a different, more specific, > intention-revealing selector to avoid this confusion? Certainly. From my work with minimal systems (which includes logging many specific send-sites), I'm convinced that this behavior should have a more descriptive selector, and is not essential to Object anyway. -C -- Craig Latta www.netjam.org/resume +31 6 2757 7177 + 1 415 287 3547

[Pharo-project] Smalltalk lecture Saturday 20th of August at ESUG

by StÃ©phane Ducasse

Hi Friends please distribute that widely I will give a free lecture Discovering Smalltalk Smalltalk is a pure and elegant object language. This lectures will cover the fundamental aspects of Smalltalk: syntax, semantics, and key aspects of the system. Doing so we will also revise the real semantics of self/super. We will show the power of polymorphism in action by simply learning from the system. Finally we will go into more design aspect again based on the systems. As a bonus we will start the lecture with a 15 min presentation of Seaside a powerful web framework for dynamic web application. This lecture may be followed by a lecture on more advanced object-oriented design: law of demeter, encapsulation, multiple interface of classes, composition vs. inheritance Starting time: 9h30 Closing: 16h00 Location: http://www.esug.org/wiki/pier/Conferences/2011/The-Venue-in-Edinburgh Bio: He is expert in object-oriented language design, dynamic languages, reflective programming, language semantics as well as reengineering, program analysis, visualizations, software metrics. Recently he worked on traits, composable method groups, and this work got some impact. Traits have been introduced AmbiantTalk, Pharo, Perl-6, PHP 5.4 and Squeak. They influenced Scala and Fortress SUN Microsystems. Stephane is one of the developer of Pharo (http://www.pharo.project.org/) an open-source language inspired by Smalltalk. He is one of the core developer of Moose, an open-source reengineering environment (http://moose.unibe.ch/) He is the president of the European Smalltalk User Group and organize a yearly international conference on Smalltalk. He wrote a couple of fun books to teach programming and other serious topics such as dynamic web development (http://book.seaside.st) Stef
