by S Krish June 25, 2012

June 25, 2012

I am looking for a VM support to open up on configuration atleast 2 if not more as possible windows ( surfaces to paint morphs on). Viz: I run the dev code / browsers etc on one panel and designate the other window as the runtime panel to popup runtime windows only

[Pharo-project] Opal ?
by Goubier Thierry June 25, 2012

June 25, 2012

Hi, I'd like to port an old smalltalk code tracer framework of mine to Pharo (was developped on the VisualWorks compiler) and I didn't manage to port it easily on the Pharo smalltalk compiler. I met J-C. Arnaud in Rennes yesterday and he told me I should try the Opal compiler. So, how do I load Opal in a Pharo 1.4 image ?

Hi, I've a very long array I'd like to inspect, unfortunately inspector shows only first 100 elements and few last elements of my array. How can change that behavior?

[Pharo-project] Some Nautilus feedback
by Torsten Bergmann June 24, 2012

June 24, 2012

some feedback on Nautilus: 1. Having "Class/Instance" in one button is bad since the label can mean two things: "Im on the class/instance side" (state like) "Click here to go to class/instance side" (action like) After a while one knows it is the latter but this is really confusing anytime I come back to it. Especially since all Smalltalks I've used in the past have a clear and better distinction. Displaying the state on the title of the window is not enough. Possible solution: - reintroduce the two buttons (if layout space is a problem use "Instance" "?" "Class" where ? points to comment - use Tabs as in Dolphins browser http://www.stevewaring.net/blog/images/ssosxCHB.jpg - use a real toggle button which is not only changed but have a pressed "Instance" or non-pressed "Class" state - use two Radio Buttons as in VisualWorks http://linuxgazette.net/issue51/gx/steffler/classBrowser03.jpg 2. I like the hierarchy view ... and the double click "navigate to" functionality that is similar to VisuaWork. But still the inheritance tree view is not collapsible which is the most missing feature. You may ask why do we need that. Here is an example: navigate to class "StandardWindow" in Pharo 2.0 and click on "Hierarchy" to have a class hierarchy browser. Now you want to learn more about the direct subclasses of "StandardWindow" - hard to do in Nautilus: You will see class DialogWindow as the first subclass if SystemWindow - since the hierarchy of DialogWindow itself is very deep you can not see and easily navigate to the second subclass of SystemWindow which is "FontChooseMorph". It is hard to scroll down and since the tree has not lines it is also hard to follow indentation. With a collapsible tree you could collapse the "DialogWindow" subtree and would see - SystemWindow -- DialogWindow (collapsed) -- FontChooserMorph -- NautilusWindow Attached is a screenshot to show how easy it would be displayed with a collapsible browser (I used the SmalltalkMT class hierarchy browser to mock it) 3. The casing in the menue items is totally inconsistent. Here an example: "Find Method..." "Add class..." Nonetheless I like Nautilus a lot - thanks for it!

[Pharo-project] SystemAnnouncements issues
by Pavel Krivanek June 24, 2012

June 24, 2012

Hi, firstly a question: should SystemAnnouncements be part of the Pharo Kernel? On one side it makes sense to have in there however we can keep it unloadable. It seems that currently the only class in Pharo Kernel that uses it is the PragmaCollector. There is one issue related to SystemAnnouncements. As you may see from this trace - https://ci.lille.inria.fr/pharo/view/Pharo-Kernel%202.0/job/Pharo%20Kernel%… - it may happen that the announcements are sent to an obsolete class. The SystemAnnouncemnets use weak bindings however the receiver becomes obsolete, not nil. Cheers, -- Pavel
