Fwd: [squeak-dev] A nitpick

by Eliot Miranda

See http://source.squeak.org/trunk/Compression/Compression-eem.41 ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Yoshiki Ohshima <Yoshiki.Ohshima(a)acm.org> Date: Tue, May 6, 2014 at 2:09 PM Subject: [squeak-dev] A nitpick To: The general-purpose Squeak developers list < squeak-dev(a)lists.squeakfoundation.org> This can be a nitpick of the year, but there is a bug in InflateStream>>decompressBlock:with: There is a part that reads (toward the end): ------------------------ collection replaceFrom: readLimit+1 to: readLimit + length + 1 with: collection startingAt: readLimit - distance + 1. ------------------------ but here we want to replace "length" bytes in collection, as opposed to length + 1 bytes, so it has to say: ------------------------ collection replaceFrom: readLimit+1 to: readLimit + length with: collection startingAt: readLimit - distance + 1. ------------------------ (So is the non-primitive version in FastInflateStream.) The reason it does not matter is that replaceFrom:to:with:startingAt: does not care about the source and destination being the same and overlap between them. Even when the above bug puts one extra bytes in collection temporarily, the extra byte will be wiped out in the next iteration of the loop surrounding it. However, if you try to port this to a language that does the "right thing" when there is an overlap, it manifests as a bug. -- Yoshiki P.S. It was a "rare" delight to point out a bug in Andreas' code^^; We miss you. -- best, Eliot

ok I made my first commit just now I added the Preface chapter, looks ok. Just the first page. It asked me to merge my commit, dont know why, I hope I did not mess anything up, I am not very experienced with git so bare with me. I have 2 questions a) The page I am porting from PBE has a footnote, does Pier have a syntax for footnotes ? b) Why Pier does not wrap text ?

Re: [Pharo-dev] gui testing

by Sven Van Caekenberghe

Actually, Spec UIs are quite easy to script since your Spec model has accessors for each element, you can ask for a button and send it #performAction, ask for a text input and send it #text or #text: and so on. It can get quite complex quickly, but it is possible. On 06 May 2014, at 20:40, Sean P. DeNigris <sean(a)clipperadams.com> wrote: > Pablo R.

Re: [Pharo-dev] Roassal visualizing a corner of the Universe

by Alexandre Bergel

Thanks Kilon for your nice words. Currently, AstroCloud is a bit slow. For example, loading this image takes much more than it should. For now, speed is not our priority. AstroCloud has to be fast and we will make it fast. Probably relying on external library is the way to go. Just to give a bit more context about why we are doing AstroCloud. ALMA is the largest observatory on Earth, making it the largest astronomical project in existence (http://www.almaobservatory.org) This is what humanity has best to detect life outside Earth. ALMA is made of 66 high-precision antenas making it possible to see deep in the universe. Unfortunately, there is no good software to process these immensely complex pictures. Some tool suite naturally exist, but they were not made for ALMA, making these existing tools largely suboptimal to process complex picture of ALMA. Faviolaâs dream (and mine) is to produce a tool ready to be consumed by astronomers to process ALMA pictures. Faviola and I are currently seeking for additional resources on making this happen. Regarding your help about documenting Roassal. It is very welcome! In one of my previous post, I said that 2014 will be the year of documenting Roassal. A book is on its way. We will need people to review it. So thanks!

Yuriy, maybe the script could check if pdflatex is present and if not, ignore the pdf generation? The pdf will be generated by the build server so we don't really care. Moreover, one of the goals doing pillar was to avoid asking everyone to install LaTeX which is quite large. What do you think?

Re: [Pharo-dev] Improving Pharo By Example

by Yuriy Tymchuk

Yes, that README is dead long time (for now you may find the one from Enterprise book more useful https://github.com/SquareBracketAssociates/PharoForTheEnterprise-english/bl…) We are working on a book workflow and will provide a better documentation soon. You need pdflatex to compile pdf from latex. Also you should check https://github.com/DamienCassou/pillar-documentation to understand how pillar works. In 2 words: put your chapter in a dedicated dir in pillar-format file. Include it in pillar.conf file, then compile.sh will generate both html, latex, markdown versions for your chapter and a book with all chapters. Feel free to ask for more.

Re: [Pharo-dev] [ANN] Mapless a small framework for storing objects in a key->data fashion with no friction

Things like this are really pushing the status quo forward. Thanks Sven! Iâve updated it today adding a FAQ section: Frequently Asked Questions What saving 'Models' means? why not any object? By Models Mapless means that you are not pretending to save transient stuff like contexts or sockets or filehandlers, etc. Any instance of a MongoMapless subclass will save in a breeze. Those instances are going to be serialized and stored as documents of its correspondant MongoDB collection. Is only for tree-like structures or does actually support an object graph? Given that you follow its rules,like saving children first and thinking your models as noSQL friendly documents, yes, it does support an arbitrary object graph. Why would I want to use Mapless? Because you might want to profit from some of these benefits: JSON friendly models Having 1:1 interoperability of your models with Ruby and NodeJS and any JSON friendly object oriented app Dealing with Gigas or Teras order of magnitude databases High availability Easy replication of the whole database across the cloud Databases many people is familiar to use and maintain Powerful queries and custom indices Freedom from a prioristic instVars declarations Freedom from mappings maintenance when the design changes Trans-image model caching (requires Redis) Trans-image model observation/reaction, horizontally scalling the Observer Pattern (requires Redis) Friendly to mobile noSQL database use and sync (requires CouchDB) All that with very low-friction and low-maintenance using one simple API
