Projects trapped on Github?
by Sean P. DeNigris April 10, 2014

April 10, 2014

Last week, we were trying to load pharo-webdoc (https://github.com/camillobruni/pharo-webdoc) from github to fix a bug. We ran into a problem that I will attempt to recreate from memory... a configuration needed to load a dependent project from github (since it was moved there from sthub iirc), but we couldn't do that because gitfiletree is not loaded in Pharo 3.0 by default because it depends on OSProcess. Does that sound like a known problem and is there a solution? Sorry to be so vague, but I was a bit shocked that we hit a dead end, since it seems that people are using git/github successfully. ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Projects-trapped-on-Github-tp4753786.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

bugette in script file-in
by Eliot Miranda April 9, 2014

Hi All, again noticed in the simulator: If one files-in a script via the command line (myvm myimage script.st) then the CodeImporter evaluates an extra empty string after filing n the chunks in the script, which creates an extra empty compiled method and executes it. -- best, Eliot

Random VM crashes
by J.F. Rick April 9, 2014

April 9, 2014

Hi, when I have one of my multi-touch programs open, Pharo occasionally (read once every few days) just crashes. Ubuntu mentions a failure to report to Ubuntu on the pharovm but I'm not sure how to understand that failure. I thought it might be one of two things: (1) some sort of problem with Athens rendering or (2) some sort of problem with the multi-touch events. Those are really the only things that separate when I'm developing and when I'm testing. It never crashes when I'm developing, which is a much larger percentage of the time. Recently, the crash happened when I was not touching the display. That meant that there would not have been any touch events to process, nor would an Athens render happen. Strange. I'm not sure how to proceed. I've turned off the multi-touch support for the time being to see if it still happens. If so, that would probably exonerate the multi-touch code. Does anyone else have rare random unexplained crashes happening while using Athens? Is there anything I could do to better diagnose the problem. It's fiendish as it happens so rarely and there is no replicable action that causes it to happen. Cheers, Jeff -- Jochen "Jeff" Rick, Ph.D. http://www.je77.com/ Skype ID: jochenrick

13171 When-browsing-a-hierarchy-Nautilus-changes-the-view-unexpectedly
by Ben Coman April 9, 2014

April 9, 2014

Fix ready for review. Its a one liner, so if anyone is on the verge of wanting to get more involved, here's your chance. I've only did the same the same recently and I'm finding it a great way to have a directed task to learn about the system. https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/13171/When-browsing-a-hierarchy-Nautilus-… cheers -ben
