You pain prompted me to open an issue https://pharo.fogbugz.com/default.asp?15240 I think its low risk, so I'll be optimistic and submit a slice in case your experience is good. cheers -ben

Hi Ben, Ah, I absolutely hate those ugly guys, I often terminate them by hand, just to have a clean Process Browser listing ;-) I applied your patch to SHTextStyler>>#styleInBackgroundProcess: and will see what it gives in my current working image.

stuck SHTextStyler semaphores

by Ben Coman

Probably most people don't look much at Tools > Process Browser. I never did until I doing the delay refactoring to keep track of when the timer event loop was running. I often find several of the following processes stuck on a semaphore... [ sem notNil ifTrue: [ sem wait. view ifNotNil: [ view stylerStyledInBackground: text ] ] ] forkAt: Processor activePriority. So I had a little dig. Now trying to fix this multithreaded code at this late stage has some risk of destabilising things, so I propose the following minimal effective change... [ sem notNil ifTrue: [ (sem waitTimeoutSeconds: 5) ifFalse: [ view ifNotNil: [ view stylerStyledInBackground: text ] ] ] ] forkAt: Processor activePriority. Can anyone more familiar with SHTextStyler than the half hour I've had comment if they foresee any problem with that? cheers -ben

Re: [Pharo-dev] SmalltalkHub "Watch this project" is not working for me

by garduino

Yes, I know the expected behaviour and I think that is useful to have such sort of quick links to projects that I'm interested on. Me comment pointed to the fact that pressing the button don't added the project that I wanted to watch to my list, but now seems to work again. -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/SmalltalkHub-Watch-this-project-is-not-working-for-me… Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: [Pharo-dev] SmalltalkHub "Watch this project" is not working for me

by Chris Cunningham

On your smalltalkhub home page, it should add that project to the section 'watched projects'. And it should add you to the list of folks who are watching the project (listed in the watchers tab on the project). But, yeah, I've been unable to decide if is does anything else. At least it gives me a quick link to those projects. -cbc On Fri, Mar 27, 2015 at 3:57 AM, garduino <garduino(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi: > > I can't watch a project, pressing the button don't do nothing. > > Thanks. > > > > -- > View this message in context: > http://forum.world.st/SmalltalkHub-Watch-this-project-is-not-working-for-me… > Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at > Nabble.com. > >

Re: [Pharo-dev] [IMPORTANT] Release will be delayed one week. PLEASE TEST!

by kilon alios

I am testing every single day since when Pharo 4 became available :) Its your fault that Pharo has been rock stable. Apart from some crashes when I tried to install SmaCC in few images but no crashes since then. On the other hand, I always complain one way or another so ....
