[Pharo-project] Three presentations at Dyncon 2012 in Stockholm

by GÃ¶ran Krampe

Hey fellas! Just wanted to mention that Smalltalk and Amber in particular has a fairly strong presence this year at Dyncon 2012 (http://swdc.se/dyncon2012/) - I am presenting "Brave new world" (the architecture of SmalltalkHub, which includes Amber, Phriak, Pharo, Seaside-REST etc) (see http://swdc.se/dyncon2012/sessions/) - Nicolas is presenting Amber. - Jason Ayers is probably presenting something Smalltalk related :) regards, GÃ¶ran

by Pavel Krivanek

Hi, is CI server working well? Jobs seem to be at least two times slower and some were running over whole night. I see no problem with the 1.4 image nor VM. -- Pavel

Re: [Pharo-project] [squeak-dev] Simulation discrepancy with #return:

by Igor Stasenko

Just found this mail.. :) Will take a look tomorrow. And, if we're speaking about debugger, there are problems with simulating <primitive: module: error:> vs <primitive: module: > i'm not sure, how good/bad things in squeak, but in pharo, Mariano modified the code to get rid of many try:with:with.. but still it doesn't handling simulation of primitives with error codes right. http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=5459 -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko.

[Pharo-project] Gettext package, who?

by Hilaire Fernandes

Who is maintaining the Gettext package? I remember someone volunteer to take over but I forgot who and where. I have a few fixes to get the gettext package working with 1.4, at least the exporter. Hilaire -- Dr. Geo -- http://www.drgeo.eu

[Pharo-project] broken gettext package in 1.4

I have this code below from Gettext package becoming broken with latest Ring Pharo 1.4 package. Can someone with the appropriate knowledge help me there?

[Pharo-project] Bug in WAMemoryItem>>sizeOfObject

by niko.schwarz＠googlemail.com

Hi guys, I haven't checked if this bug exists already, so please ignore this if it's been reported before. Bug in WAMemoryItem: sizeOfObject: anObject | headerSize instanceSize variableSize | headerSize := anObject class indexIfCompact > 0 ifTrue: [ 4 ] ifFalse: [ 8 ]. instanceSize := anObject class instSize. variableSize := anObject class isBytes ifTrue: [ anObject basicSize ] ifFalse: [ anObject class isWords ifTrue: [ Smalltalk wordSize * anObject basicSize ] ifFalse: [ Smalltalk wordSize * anObject basicSize // 2 ] ]. ^ headerSize + instanceSize + variableSize In this snippet, the units that are added together in the last line are of different units. instanceSize is in unit "number of machine words", whereas variableSize and headerSize are in unit "bytes". The method is fixed here: sizeOfObject: anObject | headerSize instanceSize variableSize | headerSize := anObject class indexIfCompact > 0 ifTrue: [ 4 ] ifFalse: [ 8 ]. instanceSize := anObject class instSize * Smalltalk wordSize. variableSize := anObject class isBytes ifTrue: [ anObject basicSize ] ifFalse: [ anObject class isWords ifTrue: [ Smalltalk wordSize * anObject basicSize ] ifFalse: [ Smalltalk wordSize * anObject basicSize // 2 ] ]. ^ headerSize + instanceSize + variableSize Example: |m| dict := Dictionary new. m := WAMemory new. dict traverseWithMemory: m seen: IdentitySet new. m totalSize This will incorrectly spit out 10, but should return 16, on a 32 bit VM.

Re: [Pharo-project] SystemTracer

by Guillermo Polito

Hi Eliot, do you have a pointer of where can I see the differences between the old Squeak format and the cog image format, so I can make SystemTracer work on Cog vms?
