UnixOSProcessPlugin and accessing C array out of bounds

by Holger Freyther

Hi Esteban, while building packages for OBS and going the compile warnings (one of the nice things of newer compilers is the increased diagnostic) I noticed this: [ 196s] /usr/src/packages/BUILD/src/plugins/UnixOSProcessPlugin/UnixOSProcessPlugin.c:4525:20: warning: iteration 64u invokes undefined behavior [-Waggressive-loop-optimizations] [ 196s] if ((semaIndices[sigNum]) > 0) { [ 196s] ^ [ 196s] /usr/src/packages/BUILD/src/plugins/UnixOSProcessPlugin/UnixOSProcessPlugin.c:4524:9: note: containing loop [ 196s] while (sigNum <= (signalArraySize())) { while (sigNum <= (signalArraySize())) { if ((semaIndices[sigNum]) > 0) { setSignalNumberhandler(sigNum, (originalSignalHandlers())[sigNum]); } sigNum += 1; } semaIndices has signalArraySize()/NSIG number of entries and is zero based, it is being accessed with sigNum==NSIG which means one entry beyond the memory of the array? Can you confirm this? restoreDefaultSignalHandlers "Restore signal handlers to their original behaviors." | sigNum | <returnTypeC: 'void'> semaIndices = nil "nil if in interpreter simulation" ifFalse: [sigNum := 1. [sigNum <= self signalArraySize] whileTrue: [((semaIndices at: sigNum) > 0) ifTrue: [self setSignalNumber: sigNum handler: (self originalSignalHandlers at: sigNum).]. sigNum := sigNum + 1]] So it is one based but the array doesn't have an extra element to make it work? How is this normally handled in slang code? holger

Spotter - menu items

by Ben Coman

I happened to be Spotting for image saveXXX methods and at the top of results is #Menu + Save + Save as... + Save and quit Now what would be really nice is if the code pane showed the implementation of the menu item. Usually I resort to using Halos to inspect the menu item morph to view its implementation. On a slightly separate point, it feels awkward clicking Save in the Spotter search, since there is no visual feedback anything happened. I had to go back and experiment by choosing [Save as] to understand that clicking it actually executed it. Perhaps executing a menu item from Spotter could #inform: us that a menu item was executed. This is in spite that choosing [Save] from the World menu doesn't provide any feedback. I think that conforms to expected behaviour, but most other Spotter results only browse, not execute. Actually how many other Spotter extensions execute something? It is maybe potentially dangerous that it behaves differently to other results, and clicking on it (e.g. trying to expand it like other results) causes side effects. Perhaps the code pane showing the menu item implementation could have <Execute> and <Debug> buttons above it. cheers -ben

Re: [Pharo-dev] WeakValueDictionary: shouldn't be "absent" after GC?

by Martin Dias

Hi all Phil: I'm sorry, didn't get what you point with the code snippet. The copy of the Symbol is the same instance, that I think it's nto GCed. Guille: Yes, I knew the internals of the WeakValueDictionary but asked about the API. What I don't know is about using WeakRegistry and Ephemerons. I'll check WeakKeyDictionary. I understand the idea of "explicit control of magic", but not sure if I understand concretely. Do you mean to implement something like WeakValueDictionary>>register which will not be executed by #initialize, so the user can decide to register. Am I right? Denis: +1 WeakSet behavior is really confusing! In thte case of WeakValueDictionary I didn't check for inconsistencies but was only annoyed but it's behavior. Guille and Denis: Instead of using SetElement or cleaning up the empty WeakValueAssociations, what I first thought is to internally consider an association with nil as absent. I mean, modify or override some methods soem when there is an WeakValueAssociation with value == nil it considers it's absent. Concretely, I'd expect: | dictionary | dictionary := WeakValueDictionary with: 'hello' -> 'world' copy. Smalltalk garbageCollect. { dictionary values includes: nil. *---> false * dictionary at: 'hello'. * ---> NotFound signal* dictionary at: 'hello' ifAbsent: [ 'absent' ].* ---> 'absent'* dictionary at: 'hello' ifAbsentPut: [ 'put' ]. *---> 'put'* } It's better if I give some context. Look this simplified version of my use case: MyUI>> morphAt: key cache ifNil: [ cache := WeakValueDictionary new ]. ^ cache at: key ifPresent: [:cachedValueOrNil | cachedValueOrNil ifNotNil: [ cachedValueOrNil ] ifNil: [ cache at: entryReference put: (self newMorph: key) ] ] ifAbsent: [ cache at: entryReference put: (self newMorph: key) ] I'd like to only send #newMorph: in ifAbsent: and to avoid the ifNotNil:ifNil: Like this: morphAt: key cache ifNil: [ cache := WeakValueDictionary new ]. ^ cache at: key ifAbsent: [ cache at: entryReference put: (self newMorph: key) ] :-) MartÃn
