Good that NativeBoost can do what the paper says. How does one debug Pharo and NativeBoost working together? Can one step in Pharo, encounter NativeBoost code, the step in C and return to Pharo? I would like to create addins for CAD programs (Windows for now). The CAD program starts and calls the addin to be part of the CAD program. User interactions within the CAD are passed to the addin which then drives the data or display in the CAD. The addin is a separate DLL or EXE but the user sees only the CAD with extra capabilities - not as distinct programs. Can Pharo make such an addin?

Emacs employs fuzzy completion. That means that you only have to type a partial match that exists in anywhere in the result or even fragments of a partial match making for very flexible search. For example if I look for "filesystem" and yet I type"systemfile" or "sysfile" or "file-syse" etc, the search will still able to locate the "filesystem" packages and all its classes. I used this completion both for code completion and file path completion , but I am pretty sure it works everywhere inside emacs. That also mean a unified search for everything, classes, methods etc . Without of course ruling out focused search of any kind , regex and existing ways to search in Pharo. But I want to say that I am very happy we have this functionality in pharo. Thank you.

Another pponit about the search it would be good to have the following behavior I type TOOLS I see all the packages with TOOLS I select one then I removed TOOLS from the search bar -> the selected package stays selected Stef

Here is a live example of doing that: This is how we load Delphi code in Moose. http://www.flickr.com/photos/35787002@N03/10609428345/ In the background. That is very nice when it works. But not so nice when the background process keeps on popping up debuggers. Lots of debuggers. So many, that it gets difficult to get access to the process browser to kill the loading process. As long as the proces ends and you donât run out of memory, you can then kill all open debuggers with some code like World submorphs select: [:each | (each respondsTo: #label) ifTrue: [each label beginsWith: 'Messageâ] ifFalse: [ false] ] thenDo: [:each | each close] And then you wait a few minutes for the debuggers to be closed. Ben wrote >I will do an experiment and fork each Nautilus opening to see if it can save my ass :P Background processing only works in a very specific setup. This wonât work when every nautilus browsers just runs in its own thread, as nearly all code in Pharo is not thraad-safe. Is the compiler reentrant? Or even woorse, is committing packages reentrant? >I was saying that theoretically it should not freeze the UI thread if you fork. How are you going to find the one thread that does something wrong and freezes the UI? Stephan

Searchbar in the browser

by Alexandre Bergel

Hi All, You may have noticed that Nautilus now has a search bar next to the list of packages. I personally find this extremely useful. This is the work of Juraj and he is interested in hearing your feedback. The textfield accepts regular expression. It means that entering âRoassalâ will display all the packages having the word âRoassalâ in it (e.g., RoassalExtra, ConfigurationOfRoassal). If I enter â^Roassalâ, it displays all the packages that begin with âRoassalâ. (e.g., RoassalExtra). Any idea how to make this feature more apparent? Anything else you want to see with the searching in the browser?
