beacon documentation

by Tudor Girba

Hi, To support the recent conversation about Beacon, we put together an updated documentation using Documenter. To play with it: 1. Load GToolkit (this will also load Beacon) https://github.com/feenkcom/gtoolkit 2. Inspect IceRepository repositoriesLocation / 'feenkcom'/ 'gtoolkit' / 'doc' / 'beacon' / 'index.pillarâ. Enjoy, The feenk team -- www.tudorgirba.com www.feenk.com "It's not how it is, it is how we see it."

Re: [Pharo-dev] Recent Pharo does not work (to me) with "El Capitan"

by Jordi Delgado

Yes, I did. Same result. All the same happens with the latest version of Squeak. I tried with High Sierra. In HS Pharo 6.1 starts, the image opens but then it complains about not being able to create some file in /Private/var/... and the image becomes unusable. In High Sierra the latest version of Squeak opens correctly. Tomorrow I will try with Sierra, on a clean computer (a computer that never had a Smalltalk installed in it). I insist. You do not find any of these problems with Ubuntu. Quoting Robert de Niro, f*ck Apple ;) El 13/6/18 a les 21:55, Tim Mackinnon ha escrit: > Have you tried the 32bit version - just to rule that out?

[ann] gt documenter

by Tudor Girba

Hi, We are happy to announce a new leap of GToolkit Documenter, the tool for manipulating live documents directly in the development environment: https://github.com/feenkcom/gtoolkit-documenter Documenter is part of the second generation GToolkit project, it is based on Bloc and works with the latest Pillar. It is mainly developed by Juraj Kubelka. Attached you can see a preview of how documents look like: At its core it offers a live editor for manipulating Pillar documents. The interaction happens seamlessly directly in the text editor, and it can be combined with different types of previews to serve several classes of use cases: â¢ code documentation â¢ tutorials â¢ interactive data notebook Code documentation ---- Documenter complements the GToolkit Examples engine to redefine code documentation. When practicing example-driven development, examples get written as part of the typical development. Once examples exist, they can be quickly put together in a document to form documentation. For example, the linked picture shows the comment of a class containing a visual explanation: https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/973899862482866176 You can see a live example of documentation by inspecting the following snippet: GtDocumenter editorForText: BrToggleExamples comment. Tutorials: ---- Documenter offers a new experience of writing tutorials for Pharo by enabling the creation and embedding of Epicea change sessions directly in the document. For example, take a look at the following animation: https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/999975333972541440 The document shows a method on top, and a change preview at the bottom showing both the code and the associated diff to the state from the image. Applying the change updates both the change view (no more diff), and method preview. This speeds up significantly the process of going through a tutorial. Furthermore, given that now the document shows the diff to the current image, the reader can safely explore alternative scenario and come back to the tutorial at any time without losing the overview. The size of the preview can also be adjusted live: https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/1001152789874167808 https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/1001407762285375490 You can see a live tutorial by inspecting: IceRepository repositoriesLocation / 'feenkcom'/ 'gtoolkit-examples' / 'doc' / 'tutorial' / 'examples-tutorial.pillarâ. Interactive data notebook: ---- A Documenter document can also be used as an interactive notebook. Internally it essentially acts as a playground: â¢ it supports defining variables in code snippets, and â¢ the execution of code shows an embedded inspector. For example: https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/996310432225820672 https://twitter.com/feenkcom/status/1002851190475026432 An example, can be seen by inspecting: IceRepository repositoriesLocation / 'feenkcom'/ 'gtoolkit' / 'doc' / 'gtoolkit' / 'gtoolkit.pillar'. As always, please do let us know what you think. Enjoy, The feenk team -- www.tudorgirba.com www.feenk.com "If you can't say why something is relevant, it probably isn't."

CfP: 3rd Workshop on Meta-Programming Techniques and Reflection (Metaâ18), Co-located with SPLASH 2018

by Guido Chari

======================================================================== Call for Papers 3rd Workshop on Meta-Programming Techniques and Reflection (Metaâ18) Co-located with SPLASH 2018 November 6, 2018, Boston, USA https://2018.splashcon.org/track/meta-2018 Follow us on twitter @MetaAtSPLASH ======================================================================== The Metaâ18 workshop aims to bring together researchers working on metaprogramming and reflection, as well as users building applications, language extensions, or software tools using them. The changing hardware and software landscape, and the increased heterogeneity of systems make metaprogramming once more an important research topic to handle the associate complexity. The challenges which metaprogramming faces are manifold. They start with typing of reflective programs, continue with performance and tooling, and reach into the empirical field to understand how metaprogramming is used and how it affects software maintainability. While industry accepted metaprogramming on a wide scale with Ruby, Scala, JavaScript and others, academia still needs to bring it to the same level of convenience, tooling, and understanding as for direct programming styles. Contributions to the workshop are welcome on a wide range of topics related to the design, implementation, and application of metaprogramming techniques, as well as empirical studies on typing models for such systems and languages. ### Topics of Interest The workshop is a venue for all approaches that embrace metaprogramming, from static to dynamic techniques: - reflection, meta-level architectures, staging, open language runtimes applications to middleware, frameworks, and DSLs - optimization techniques - contract systems, or typing of reflective programs - reflection and metaobject protocols to enable tooling - case studies and evaluation of such techniques, e.g., to build applications, language extensions, or tools - empirical evaluation of metaprogramming solutions - security in reflective systems and capability-based designs - meta-level architectures and reflective middleware for modern runtime platforms (e.g. IoT, cyber-physical systems, mobile/cloud/grid computing, etc) - surveys, conceptualization, and taxonomization of existing approaches In short, we invite contributions to the workshop on a wide range of topics related to design, implementation, and application of reflective APIs and meta-programming techniques, as well as empirical studies and typing for such systems and languages. ### Workshop Format and Submissions This workshop welcomes the presentation of new ideas and emerging problems as well as mature work as part of a mini-conference format. Furthermore, we plan interactive brainstorming and demonstration sessions between the formal presentations to enable an active exchange of ideas. Papers submitted by the first deadline will be considered for publication in the ACM DL, if not requested otherwise by the authors. Thus, they will be part of SPLASH workshop proceedings. For all papers, use of the SIGPLAN acmart style is mandatory: http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/. Please use the provided double-column templates for Latex or Word. technical paper: max. 8 pages, excluding references position and work-in-progress paper: 1-4 pages, excluding references technology demos or a posters: 1-page abstract Demos, posters, position and work-in-progress papers can be submitted on a second, later deadline to discuss the latest results and current work, but will not be considered for publication in the ACM DL. For the submission, please use the submission system at: https://meta18.hotcrp.com/ ### Important Dates 7 Aug 2018 - Abstract Submission 17 Aug 2018 - Paper Submission (considered for ACM DL) 14 Sep 2018 - Notification 7 Sep 2018 - Demo, position or work-in-progress paper submission 30 Sep 2018 - Demo, position or work-in-progress paper notification 6 Nov 2018 - Workshop ### Organizing Committee Guido Chari, Czech Technical University Elisa Gonzalez Boix, Vrije Universiteit Brussel Stefan Marr, University of Kent ### Program Committee Anya Helene Bagge, University of Bergen, Norway Camilo Bruni, Google, Germany Walter Cazzola, UniversitÃ degli Studi di Milano, Italy Pascal Costanza, imec Marcus Denker, INRIA, Lille Matthew Flatt, University of Utah, United States Diego Garbervetsky, University of Buenos Aires, Argentina Eduardo Guerra, INPE, National Institute for Space Research Pablo Inostroza, CWI, Netherlands Hidehiko Masuhara, Tokyo Institute of Technology ,Japan Tom Van Cutsem, Nokia Bell Labs, Belgium
