Pharo 5 rocks

by Alain Plantec

Hello all, Thanks thanks thanks for Pharo 5. Each year, from September to November, my students are learning Pharo with the last release. And as you know, beginners and naive users are very good at stressing a software :) Previous years I faced issues due to Pharo bugs (especially because of Nautilus but not only). Since 2 weeks, no issue at all regarding Pharo, a real pleasure. So this mail is just to thank all of you who made this cool release. Cheers Alain

Re: [Pharo-dev] Call for design for a literal programming doc similar to PythonDocTest

by stepharo

+1 I love Sunit as specification validation. I like doctest just a validated doc. I do not care that the are used as tests. This is not the main goal to me The goal is make sure that the reader understand fast. I like that there are in the comments because in a PharoDoc the examples woudl be there.

Re: [Pharo-dev] SharedPool method definitions do not resolve Class names

by ClÃ©ment Bera

Are SharedPool supposed to be instantiated ? Why did you need to instantiate a SharedPool ? I only use them (maybe mistakenly) by setting with class-side methods the default values of the SharedPool class variables, then use the poolDictionary: keyword to access those variables values from other classes. I thought that was the only way they should be used. Please explain me the other use-cases for a shared pool.
