Spotter - shortcut display on categories
by Ben Coman Feb. 25, 2016

Feb. 25, 2016

I see in 50601 that Spotter categories show their shortcut. I like it a lot! Just *maybe* could the "#Implementors" text added to the search field be appended rather than prepended. Then it would feel just like typing. I say *maybe* because I'd like to use-test the idea before I'm sure of myself. Could you point me to where I could make that change to try it out locally? cheers -ben

GTSpotter displayed shortcut glitch
by stepharo Feb. 25, 2016

Feb. 25, 2016

Hi doru and andrei I saw that you are displaying the shortcuts that can be used and this is good. Now may be I got it wrong but Cmd + M is not for implementors everywhere else it is Cmd + m Same for senders So I checked and Cmd + n is senders but displayed Cmd+N Cmd+N shows references and this is cool.

fork during debugging to auto spawn new debugger
by Ben Coman Feb. 25, 2016

Feb. 25, 2016

Just a quick random thought before it gets away... It would be *nice* if when debugging and I step over a fork, the new process automatically halts at the start and spawns a new debugger. If its it was spawned at a higher priority, I could immediately move to the new debugger and step through before returning the original debugger. This would help a lot when stepping through unit tests that to test exotic corner cases are sometimes needfully convoluted about which order the processes run. Maybe if somehow a Process new it was being debugged and the new process inherited that state. cheers -ben

About contents of Pharo by Example updated
by stepharo Feb. 25, 2016

Feb. 25, 2016

Hi I'm looking at some chapters of Pharo by Example like environment that presents many tools and I think that I cannot spend time updating this chapter. What I will do is to have one tool per page with a small description and key points. Else the book will again get obsolete. I do not know what you think but I do not have the cycles for all the tiny details. Stef

short spotter demos
by Tudor Girba Feb. 25, 2016

Feb. 25, 2016

Hi, The recent debates around Spotter, showed that some of its features are not well understood. In an effort to document it more thoroughly I created a couple of (very short) videos. They have no sound. Please take a look and let us know what you think. Spotting a class with GTSpotter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wIh4fekcD8 Scoping a search to a specific category in GTSpotter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-fY4mN6Isc Using category shortcuts in GTSpotter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USNZ7_6gLDA Using preview in GTSpotter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSm5xylmTqM Using the dive-in action in GTSpotter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7mJBX3Oblw Loading a public playground with GTSpotter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xeDDLLdA1v8 Navigating through files with GTSpotter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHQqXcS0vDI Refining a search through the dive-in-category action with GTSpotter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IclLett0d6c Opening a cached playground page with GTSpotter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_yndTSsj8c Cheers, Doru -- www.tudorgirba.com www.feenk.com "Yesterday is a fact.

Hi, Ok, this is more tricky, but it is supported :). Actually this is one of the really cool things about Spotter. For this we have #filter:item:. Look at the senders to find examples in the image. For example: PragmaType>>spotterSendersFor: aStep <spotterOrder: 50> ^ aStep listProcessor title: 'Senders'; filter: GTFilterSubstring item: [ :filter :context | self keyword senders do: [ :sender | filter value: sender compiledMethod ] ] or: GTSpotter>>spotterForReferencesFor: aStep <spotterOrder: 32> aStep listProcessor title: 'References'; filter: GTNullFilter item: [ :filter :context | context textTrimmed asClassIfPresent: [ :class | SystemNavigation default allReferencesTo: class binding do: filter ] ]; keyBinding: $n shift meta; itemName: [ :method | method gtDisplayString ] so, the block is being passed a filter which actually behaves like a block :). So, you can pass it to whatever traversal you have, and this will stream the results back to Spotter. I find this so cool that I cannot describe it :). Let me know if this helps.

Help with PrStef with Fonts
by stepharo Feb. 24, 2016

Feb. 24, 2016

Hi I'm trying to understand why PrStef does not use the fonts I defined for shooting the videos StandardFonts codeFont: (LogicalFont familyName: 'Source Code Pro' pointSize: 15). StandardFonts defaultFont: (LogicalFont familyName: 'Source Code Sans' pointSize: 13). StandardFonts listFont: (LogicalFont familyName: 'Source Code Sans' pointSize: 18). StandardFonts menuFont: (LogicalFont familyName: 'Source Code Sans' pointSize: 18). StandardFonts buttonFont: (LogicalFont familyName: 'Source Code Sans' pointSize: 12). I tried to avoid to convert a text into a string... may be showLesson: aLesson withTitle: aString self window setLabel: aString. self sourceTextModel setText: aLesson lesson. self isOpenInWindow ifFalse: [ self open ] but I do not know :( Stef

search query?
by stepharo Feb. 24, 2016

Feb. 24, 2016

Hi in the debugger we get a search and I wonder what it is. I type true, each and nothing happens (well I do not get the methods list). I think that the ghost text is misleading since we should/can only type selectors.

help needed for testing the order in spotter
by Tudor Girba Feb. 24, 2016

Feb. 24, 2016

Hi, We need a bit of help with testing the order in Spotter. We do not have a real solution yet, but the current one should improve the situation. We need a bit of feedback for this one: https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/17656/Spotter-should-sort-search-results Essentially, you would need to load the latest GT-Spotter and GT-SpotterExtensions-Core and let us know if it works better for spotting implementors or classes.
