Fwd: Where are the Metacello ConfigurationOfYourProject supposed to be?
by Nicolas Cellier March 11, 2017

March 11, 2017

Grrr, even the mailing list changes, the first match in gmail just bounces, ;) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Nicolas Cellier <nicolas.cellier.aka.nice(a)gmail.com> Date: 2017-03-10 0:05 GMT+01:00 Subject: Where are the Metacello ConfigurationOfYourProject supposed to be? To: Pharo Development <Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr>, The general-purpose Squeak developers list < squeak-dev(a)lists.squeakfoundation.org> Hi, I must come back to one of the balkanization and lack of stability that most upset me. Imagine that you are developping a cross dialect library, say for Squeak/Pharo and why not Gemstone. Imagine that this library has a few dependencies to some other libraries, either Core like Alien/FFI or more exotic third party also available in other dialects. The question are: -1) where are you supposed to maintain your own ConfigurationOf*? -2) where are you supposed to find the ConfigurationOf* dependencies? Once upon a time, the answer would have been http://www.squeaksource.com/MetacelloRepository But now, what is it? I see surprisingly few updates here (apart from Sven and a few others). How can the Metacello feature of supporting cross-dialect work if the dialect specific configuration of dependencies are scattered all around the web? Do the CPAN or PyPI have to change their URL each time a new release of perl or python is released? Careless decisions in this area can easily sabotage the cross-dialect initiative. Maybe I'm ranting by ignorance. I wish your answers will reassure me. Nicolas

Spec menu shortcut
by Martin Dias March 10, 2017

March 10, 2017

Is it known that Spec models ignore menu shortcuts? at least some of them, TreeModel and FastTableModel. Example: | example | example := FastTableModel new. example items: (1 to: 10); menu: [ | aMenu | aMenu := MenuModel new. aMenu addGroup: [ :aGroup | aGroup addItem: [ :anItem | anItem name: 'Halt'; shortcut: $h command; action: [ 1halt ] ] ]. aMenu buildWithSpecAsPopup ]; openWithSpec. This is latest Pharo 6. Cheers, MartÃn

Frozen is melted (can you guys please be patient?)
by Esteban Lorenzano March 10, 2017

March 10, 2017

Hi, First, let me be clear: I *like* sublimish theme (not for my use, but I like it), and I like (a lot) the windows list on spotter, and I like in general all this new additions. And I know, most of those additions are usability enhancements so a good thing. But can you guys stop pushing new features into a (in theory) frozen version? Pharo 7 will arrive soonâ¦ *if* we can fix all things missing. If I can suggest an orientation, it would be good, for those that use linux and mac (windows is not ready), to test and help fix 64bits version. There are still plenty of bugs to fix there, like for example why Spotter does not shows search line. Last week I added support to Athens and SDL2 in 64bits but that meant: - some important changes in UFFI - discover something that seems is failing on callbacks for Cairo (no idea if it is a callbacks problem or an image problem that causes a callback problem). I would say all this and the fact we are working on 64bits in general deserves a lot of testing. I will add links in Pharo page to download 64bits (Iâm at the train now), but in the mean time you can download all from here: http://files.pharo.org/get-files/60/pharo-64.zip <http://files.pharo.org/get-files/60/pharo-64.zip> http://files.pharo.org/get-files/60/pharo64-linux-latest.zip <http://files.pharo.org/get-files/60/pharo64-linux-latest.zip> (linux) http://files.pharo.org/get-files/60/pharo64-mac-latest.zip <http://files.pharo.org/get-files/60/pharo64-mac-latest.zip> (mac) http://files.pharo.org/get-files/60/sources.zip <http://files.pharo.org/get-files/60/sources.zip> (in case you need them) cheers, Esteban

Helvetia in Pharo?

Just wondering what you mean by this. Could you please elaborate a bit what you mean that it would now be less expensive to have a Helvetia system in Pharo? The last time it was implemented was in Pharo 1.1.2 ** Regards Hannes **http://scg.unibe.ch/research/helvetia

Epicea - showing latest lost changes
by Ben Coman March 9, 2017

March 9, 2017

One thing I am missing from Epicea that I used to be able to do is being able to filter out old changes. If I've been thrashing some method back and forth between a few implementations, often I don't want to see *all* the old changes,only the latest ones. An option to restore old versions would also be nice, but I don't think that feature existed previously. cheers -ben
