Hangout Session today!
by Esteban Lorenzano Oct. 2, 2013

Oct. 2, 2013

Hi, Remember, today we will have our first Hangout Session. How does this will work? Well, at 12 UTC I will open a Group Hangout in Google+, and everybody can join there (the opened hangout should appear in your g+ main page). Then we will proceed like any other regular sprint: we pick a bug, and we work on it :) I can foreseen two different possibilities: 1) you will work alone, connected to the group. In that case,you do not need to do anything else. 2) you want to pair program with someone else. In that case you need to leave the group and start your own hangout. When you finish you can comeback. well, that's all :) I will send a list of possible bugfixes now. and of course we also can talk about other stuff from Pharo, not just the bugfixing race :) See you, Esteban

Re: [Pharo-dev] failing moose tests

(from pharo -dev) PharoVM-AcceptanceTest loads Moose-Stable. That is based on a snapshot. As the snapshot flattens the configuration, it is basically unpatchable. Stephan

HTTPProgress Content-Length v.
by Ben Coman Oct. 2, 2013

Oct. 2, 2013

For PharoLauncher, I am trying to get a progress bar going for the downloading the Template lists, but the total transfer size is not being filled in for the HTTPProgress announcement. I've pulled out some code to Workspace script into [2] with the resulting Transcript result shown in [3]. I'm guessing this is due to the _"Transfer-Encoding: chunked"_ header clashing with the "Content-Length" header [1]. By putting a 'self halt' in ZnStatusLine>>readFrom: and executing several "Transcript crShow: (ZnLineReader on: stream) nextLine" the real headers were found as shown in [4], from which it seems the Content-Length is faked-up after the download finishes, and no use for a progress bar. So I only today discovered 'chunked' format, so I am curious... is there a particular advantage to use chunked for directory listing at "url=http://files.pharo.org/image/30/" ? Could it be changed to instead set Content-Length instead? btw, This is only for the directory listing (which however takes 10 seconds to get all). The zip files seem to set "Content-Length" when downloaded. cheers -ben [1] http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2419281/content-length-header-versus-chu… "[2]start------------------Workspace-script----------" workBlock := [ ZnClient new signalProgress: true ; url: 'http://files.pharo.org/image/30/' ; enforceHttpSuccess: true ; beOneShot ; accept: 'text/html;charset=utf-8' ; enforceAcceptContentType: true ; logToTranscript ; get ].

Did you know? : Useful feature in preferences browser...
by phil＠highoctane.be Oct. 2, 2013

Oct. 2, 2013

I was playing w/ my preferences file and wondered how to set the preferences in the script (grew tired of looking in settings prefs window). So, I had a look in the Deep into Pharo book, page 70. "Now the question is how to find out that the desktop color setting is declared in PolymorphSystemSettings and that the DefaultFonts class allows fonts management? More generally where are all these settings declared and managed? The answer is quite simple: just use the Settings Browser! As explained in Section 5.2, cmd-b or double clicking on an item open a browser on the declaration of the current setting node. You can also use the contextual menu for that. Browsing the declaration will give you the target class (where the preference variable is stored) and the selector for the preference value." Ah double clicking on a pref gives the preferences settings class. How cool is that? As I also have my own preference classes, this whole settings framework is pretty good indeed! Phil

Hile going over the old refactoring browse configuration I noticed 'Refactoring-Environment' with: [ spec requires: 'AST-Core' ]; and I really wonder if this is true. Stef
