Nice indeed! Are you using a kind of spring layout for the big bang animation?

[Pharo-project] How to disable development tools on Pharo 1.3
by Noury Bouraqadi April 24, 2012

April 24, 2012

I remember having seen some time in the past a menu that allows to shrink the image and disable the world menu. But, I can't retrieve any thing related. I don't care about the menu per se. I'd be happy with a message to send to some object that does the job.

[Pharo-project] Bug in DateAndTime?
by Max Leske March 27, 2012

March 27, 2012

Hi. Evaluating: DateAndTime now asUnixTime and then creating a DateAndTime object from the result: DateAndTime fromUnixTime: <seconds> does not yield an equivalent object. As far as I can tell, this is because the unix epoch is hard coded in two places: DateAndTime class>>unixEpoch "Answer a DateAndTime representing the Unix epoch (1 January 1970, midnight UTC)" ^ self basicNew ticks: #(2440588 0 0) offset: Duration zero; yourself. DateAndTime>>fromUnixTime: anInteger ^ self fromSeconds: anInteger + 2177452800 "unix epoch constant" So in the end I get a difference of 7200 seconds. I'll gladly open up a bug but can someone please confirm that this is actually a bug and that I didn't miss something? Cheers, Max

[Pharo-project] how to get a string read stream from filesystem
by Tudor Girba March 27, 2012

March 27, 2012

Hi, I am using Filesystem, and I would like to get a read stream that provides a string instead of bytes. If I do "aReference readStream", I get a FSReadStream which is a byte stream. To get to the string, I now do the ugly: "aReference readStream contents asString" Is there a cleverer way? Cheers, Doru -- www.tudorgirba.com "What we can governs what we wish."

[Pharo-project] SystemTracer
by Benjamin March 15, 2012

March 15, 2012

Hello guys, for one of my projects, I'm trying to use SystemTracer to create anew image, but it appears that it doesn't work on Pharo ... I can create a new image, but I can't open it. I've tried with an older VM (Squeak 3.8.18beta1U), but it's the same ... Did someone already have this problem ? Does someone have a solution ? Thanks in advance, Ben

[Pharo-project] MVP
by Schwab,Wilhelm K March 5, 2012

March 5, 2012

Hello all, I have been to busy to read today, but I like seeing any discussion of MVP. I am **slowly** working on a framework for it, but would be glad to be beaten to it. Default models are key; they must be replaceable, but (sub)triads should work "out of the box." Models can include value holders, value adapters, converters, and contexts, depending on how they are wired. I have something of a start on the adapters and converters, which I can try to package and make available. If nothing else, they will have value in seeding discussion if not be directly usable. More to come. Bill

There was a very, uhm , disappointed blog post by Gilad after they did the javascript implementation of NewSpeak... JavaScript is *not* a good implementation language for languages. Especially not if you want to do something new. If you build on top of JS, you will be very very contraint in what is possible... and the things *I* want to build in the future with Pharo are just impossible to do on top of javascript.

[Pharo-project] [Bug Tracker] Issues tagged 1.3
by Marcus Denker March 2, 2012

March 2, 2012

Hi, Just as another suggestion of something else to do to uselessly talk about what one would do if one could do... here is something that needs to be done: http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/list?can=2&q=Milestone%3D1.3 Someone need to looks at each issue and as questions. - can this problem be repeated in the current last version of 1.3? - is this already fixed in 1.4? if yes -- is it so grave that the fix needs to be backported? - was it already a bug for the last 10 years and it did not hurt? -- Hint, hint: likely not important for fixing in 1.3 after it has been released. (yet, it could be. And if the fix is easy and clearly not breaking anything) - is there already a bug report about this issue on the tracker? (you have no idea how many reports are duplicated entries...) - What could be the reason for the problem? What could be a possible fix? -- Marcus Denker -- http://marcusdenker.de
