I got this emergency evaluator while doing "Software update" from the menu. Pretty harsh, no? :)

[OT] A little rant about DVCS
by Sven Van Caekenberghe March 8, 2015

March 8, 2015

Here is a little rant about DVCS that I came across: Unorthodocs: Abandon your DVCS and Return to Sanity http://bitquabit.com/post/unorthodocs-abandon-your-dvcs-and-return-to-sanit… What struck my attention was that this guys (1) knows what he is talking about and (2) recognises both Smalltalk and Monticello explicitly as ancestors ! This also shows that not all is fun and jolly in git(hub) land. Sven

GitHub: Easiest Way to Load a Project (update)
by Sean P. DeNigris March 8, 2015

March 8, 2015

There was a similar thread from 2013. I wonder what's changed... The method I cobbled together from various threads was: 1. Load GitFileTree (available in the Config Browser in 3.0) 2. In MC Browser, '+Repository' -> 'Remote git repository': MCFileTreeGitRemoteRepository location: 'git@github.com:rohitsukhwal/HelloWorld.git' name: 'whatever' subdirectory: '' branch: '' A few questions: 1. name: 'whatever' seems weird. I put 'whatever' because its only significance seems to be the directory to which the repo gets cloned (i.e. imageDirectory/whatever). I assume I'm missing something... 2. The following also successfully cloned the repo, but would not be accepted in MC Browser's add repo template dialog... MCFileTreeGitRepository fromZnUrl: (ZnUrl fromString: 'gitfiletree://github.com/rohitsukhwal/HelloWorld.git?protocol=git'). a) How should it be used, or not? b) Why does it clone into imageDirectory/gitHubProjectName, where #1 above clones into ./name? 3. Since Metacello can apparently load from GitHub already, for write-only repos, can that functionality be pushed into MC to be used e.g. with Gofer? The method I found seems like a lot to ask, especially e.g. if you want someone to take a quick look at a toy project with no Metacello config Ideally, as mentioned in the 2013 thread, it would be great to have: Gofer it gitHubUser: user project: project; load ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/GitHub-Easiest-Way-to-Load-a-Project-update-tp4810309… Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[Pharo4][Slots] #removeSlot:
by Marcus Denker March 8, 2015

March 8, 2015

Hi, What we need for Pharo4 wrt to Slots is just finishing the PropertySlot example. Not much to do here. -> remove base slot when removing the last propertySlot -> when adding a PropertySlot higher in the hierarchy, move base slot up. To do this, we of course need #removeSlot: , which is ready to be reviewed here: https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/15095/add-removeSlot-to-ClassDescription (there are after many simplifications possible, e.g. rewrite #removeInstVarNamed: to use this, but this is for Pharo5) Marcus

Delay issues
by Thierry Goubier March 7, 2015

March 7, 2015

Hi all, does anybody knows if the recent delay change could have an impact on OSProcess? I just rebuilt a Pharo4 image (40535) and I have random failures* when waiting for the termination of OSProcess commands * i.e. they fail to terminate. Found stuck on Delay>>wait. Thanks, Thierry
