Roassal 3D empty windows
by Nicolai Hess March 31, 2014

March 31, 2014

Hi, what could be the reason, that any Roassal3d example from the Roassal3DTutorial.pdf only shows white empty windows? I loaded ConfigurationOfRoassal3d-RonieSalgado.10 and (Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfRoassal3d) loadDevelopment Any ideas? regards Nicolai

Sells of "Deep Into Pharo"
by Alexandre Bergel March 30, 2014

March 30, 2014

Hi! So far 133 copies of Deep Into Pharo have been sold. I used Roassal2 to visualize countries Here is a screenshot: The data are embedded within the distribution of Roassal2. Just execute: RTMetricMap new example06DeepIntoPharo and you will get the same rendering. The map builder has attracted some interest. Here is a small example on how you can render you own data. First of all, you need some data. Usually, you get data in a tabular table. For example, I just stumbled on http://www.gdbridge.org/gdb_index I copy and paste the small columns on the right hand side of the web page into a string in a workspace. I then convert the third column as floats. I paint all countries in white. I then paint countries from the table using the first column as a name, and the third column as a color gradient -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | b table | b := RTMetricMap new. table := RTTabTable new. table input: 'Hong Kong, China 1 0.631447 Singapore 2 0.5889286 Netherlands 3 0.515425 Switzerland 4 0.5018929 United States 5 0.4871152 Norway 6 0.4851121 Denmark 7 0.4665922 Sweden 8 0.4567912 Finland 9 0.4460537 Korea, Rep. 10 0.4382369 Ireland 11 0.4324097 Luxembourg 12 0.4227912 Germany 13 0.4190357 Belgium 14 0.4022478 Canada 15 0.3983661 Australia 16 0.3982408 United Kingdom 17 0.3930691 Japan 18 0.3904902 Spain 19 0.3876414 Kuwait 20 0.3800776 France 21 0.377015 Brunei Darussalam 22 0.3627484 Austria 23 0.3621858 Israel 24 0.3585244 China 25 0.3560882' usingDelimiters: String tab. table convertColumn: 3 to: [ :t | Float readFrom: t ]. b allCountriesColor: Color white. b countries: table values named: #first metric: #third. b open -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ohâ¦ almost forgot.

New Nautilus side bar buttons
by Benjamin March 30, 2014

March 30, 2014

Hello guys, since I do not really like the new buttons introduced in Nautilus, and since the previous one were broken, I propose this new set of buttons based on the eclipse theme. Tell me what you think about it :) Ben

EyeInspector Updating
by Sven Van Caekenberghe March 30, 2014

March 30, 2014

Please have a look at https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/13156/EyeInspector-does-not-automatically… this is a proposal for a solution, but I want some comments by those who understand this better than me. More specifically, I do not understand the description getSelection size = 0 ifTrue: guard in EyeInspector>>#refresh and the guard that I added in EyeInspector>>#updateList works, in the sense that it refuses identical updates, but when the list changes, the old contents is already empty, which I don't understand. Sven PS: There is also another issue https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/13157/EyeTreeInspector-has-no-auto-refres… but that one is open

DateAndTime>>#= slow?

March 30, 2014

DateAndTime is a very good candidate for some slot-tricks, and should probably be a value object. Stephan

VistaCursors are killing my LinuxVM (beCursor primitive failing)
by phil＠highoctane.be March 29, 2014

March 29, 2014

I moved a windows image with VistaCursors to Linux and the beCursor primitive failed, leading to a white screen opening. Maybe this is because the cursors are bigger than the 16x16 form. I saw discussions of this being fixed in Squeak. Are we having this issue in Pharo? Phil

The 0.9.2 baseline only has a pharo3.x version, and that is the one getting buildâ¦ The tests in the Pharo2 version donât seem to catch that :) Iâm not sure why it kills the vm. It hopes to connect to a local mongodb. 0.9.2-baseline might load in 2 by removing the 3.x, but I havenât tried. I canât commit in NicolasPetton/SmalltalkHub Stephan

Release Mode
by Sean P. DeNigris March 29, 2014

March 29, 2014

While I was on holiday, it seems my dear friends have gone feature crazy... almost as bad as me in the run up to the 2.0 release, ha ha. As cool as they are, are: - changing the look of Nautilus buttons - evaluate arbitrary expressions in Spotlight - etc, etc showstopping bugs?! This beta time is reserved specifically for finding the bugs that may inevitably be introduced with these enhancements. We really may be creating a mess, as end users find them in our "stable" release instead. ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Release-Mode-tp4751408.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Capturing stdout
by Sean P. DeNigris March 29, 2014

March 29, 2014

I want to write a test for an NB Mac system call example (Issue 13147). I can check the exit code easily, the output goes to stdout of the image. Can I capture it somehow? thx :) ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Capturing-stdout-tp4751320.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: [Pharo-dev] New Nautilus side bar buttons
by Stephan Eggermont March 29, 2014

March 29, 2014

Iâm a bit confused here. I get the impression that people are reacting here on the old buttons, not the current ones. At least in the issue comments Phil is, and I got the impression Torsten is too. Please be clear in your comments where you are referring to. Stephan
