[Pharo-project] Small improvement for WriteStream >> nextPutAll:
by Mariano Martinez Peck Jan. 9, 2012

Jan. 9, 2012

Hi guys. Some time ago Henry spot to us a small improvement for WriteStream >> nextPutAll: that we are using in Fuel, but I think it can be general. Henry comment was exactly: *Also: For variableBytes classes, if you rewrite: WriteStream nextPutAll: aCollection | newEnd | collection class instSpec == aCollection class instSpec ifFalse: [^ super nextPutAll: aCollection ]. newEnd := position + aCollection size. newEnd > writeLimit ifTrue: [self growTo: newEnd + 10]. collection replaceFrom: position+1 to: newEnd with: aCollectionstartingAt: 1. position := newEnd. ^ aCollection You can now pass all variableByte classes (Like ByteString) directly to a stream with a ByteArray collection, and the replaceFrom:to:with:* *startingAt: primitive will work correctly, just like the file primitive does This means you don't need special Serializers for these either, using f.ex. clunky nextStringPutAll: methods with manual asByteArray conversions.* So...if you agree, I can commit the patch. Let me know. -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com

It's really the only way to do buffers without garbage allocations. 2) FSHandle >>at: offset read: buffer startingAt: start count: count is a weirdly named selector for what it does imho... Doesn't #at: offset read: count into: buffer startingAt: start make more sense? Cheers, Henry

[Pharo-project] How can I get account on Jenkins?
by Dimitry Golubovsky Jan. 9, 2012

Jan. 9, 2012

Hi, How can I get an account on Jenkins so I could set up build jobs for CogDroid? Such way, everybody interested could easily get access to the latest builds. Also, people who wish to experiment with derived versions (built on top of the core VM Java+native libraries) would be able to do it without messing with building the VM itself, just referencing the proper .jar and .so files. Thanks. -- Dimitry Golubovsky Anywhere on the Web

[Pharo-project] loading bytecodes into the image?
by Philippe Marschall Jan. 9, 2012

Jan. 9, 2012

Hi Ok, I'm not pretending this isn't a stupid idea, I'm just curios. Suppose I want to build something that would allow me to load "compiled classes" (without sources) into the VM. How would you approach something like this? What things need special care (bindings, symbols, load order, â¦)? Cheers Philippe
