A question about AST
by Nicolas Passerini Jan. 10, 2014

Jan. 10, 2014

I am looking at the AST of a method like this: someMethod ^ SomeClass new It was a surprise to me that the note for 'SomeClass' is an RBVariableNode instead of a RBClassReference. Which is the best way to tell if an RBVariableNode represents a global reference or an instance variable? On the other hand, there are no references to RBClassReference, so this might be a bug? Thanks, Nico

Nautilus: Package file-outs are empty
by Nicolai Hess Jan. 9, 2014

Jan. 9, 2014

Regarding issue 12589. How should we do a file-out of a classTag from a Package? Nautilus and RPackageTag uses the RPackageTag name for display and file-outs. For example. RPackageTag "BasicObjects" in RPackage "Kernel" uses the name BasicObjects for the file-out file. The file is empty, because it uses SystemOrganization fileOutCategory: self name on: internalStream. I think it shoud use self categoryName instead of self name (Kernel-BasicObjects) What should we use for the file-out file name? self categoryName, too ? There is a problem with Packages like "AST-Core", as it includes a classTag with the same name. RPackage "AST-Core" and RPackageTag "AST-Core" should file-out to different files with different contents. Nicolai

Athens SVG Import
by J.F. Rick Jan. 9, 2014

Jan. 9, 2014

This message is mainly for Igor, who probably already curses every time he sees my name on the development list. But, perhaps others have had some experience with this as well. I'm still working on moving my touch applications to Athens. I am running into a major problem with icons. My applications tend to have quite a few icons in them. In the old BitBlt versions, I just used forms for the icons. That same approach fails with Athens as form rendering is time consuming. With just ten medium-sized forms open in my AthensWrapMorph, the system starts to crawl. My guess is that form rendering needs to be sped up before Athens can be widely adopted. Using the form as a paint, while flexible, seems pretty intense. Anyway, for most of my applications, switching over to vector-based graphics would be a better choice as it would allow for me to more easily scale to different screen sizes. So, I was excited to try the SVG import. Now that the XMLParser is working, I am running into some problems with the SVG import code. It seems that it doesn't support some of the features that an SVG export from Illustrator produces. I was wondering if I could get some help there. First, Illustrator tends to spit out SVGs that use #reflectedCubicBezier curves, which is not yet implemented. Second, I found a small bug in ASPathConverter>>readPoint The "self skipBlanks" has to be changed to "self skipBlanksAndComma" or multiple points cannot be read in sequence. Third, while ASPathConverter supports vLineTo: and hLineTo:, AthensCairoPathBuilder does not. I tried implementing these myself but they apparently don't work the way I thought they should. Here are two examples of the kind of SVG files I would like to read: button-swapShapes.svg<http://home.cc.gatech.edu/je77/uploads/1/button-swapShapes.svg> - This one fails because of vLineTo: and hLineTo: button-erase.svg <http://home.cc.gatech.edu/je77/uploads/1/button-erase.svg> - This one fails because of reflectedCubicBezier curves.

TDD in Core
by Sean P. DeNigris Jan. 9, 2014

Jan. 9, 2014

We should have a policy on this. I've been guilty of writing new features without tests too. It's bad enough we have to deal with untested legacy code, but to replace key parts of the system with untested code doesn't seem like such a good idea. In particular, the latest Spec refactoring broke a lot of the UI. It's a validation of how well it's been received. It has become a crucial part of much of the IDE. At various points in 3.0 the ChangeSorter, Versionner, and SliderModel have been broken, to name a few, and I get mysterious and sudden, often image wrecking, DNUs that appear, like TextModel>>#asText. It's made it very hard to work, especially when the compiler, RPackage, etc are changing (and sometimes breaking) at the same time. ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/TDD-in-Core-tp4735378.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
