Re: [Pharo-project] How to bundle an application with icons?

by Fernando Olivero

Hi Dimitry , i've did an external icon family importer and manager. It's in squeaksource, under the name of ExternalIconFamily. Gofer it squeaksource: 'ExternalIconFamily'; package: 'ExternalIconFamily'; load. This framework allows importing and managing any external icon family. Once imported , the icon family is reified into the image, as a subclass of ExternalIconFamily. As an example it comes with a tiny subset of the Oxygen icon family imported. Try out this examples: ExternalIconFamilyOxygenTinySubsetExample openAllIcons morph := ImageMorph named: 'apply' size: 64 familyNamed: 'OxygenTinySubsetExample'. morph openInWorld. I've posted a couple of screenshots to the mailing list last year, with Examples for the complete set of Oxygen icons, the tango icons and the World Flag icons. If you want i can upload the generated classes , filed out in .st files. Let me know if it works for you! Fernando pd: Smalltalk and Metaprogramming rocks! The importer is heavily based on programmatically adding class methods. pd: look at the squeaksource page for more detail on creating your own families. I should create a help system book also.

Re: [Pharo-project] Socket question (Was Re: Xtreams up to date)

BTW, would this snippet be useful as a basic Socket smoke test ? Or is that already covered somewhere ? | input output listener process sync | sync := Semaphore new. listener := Socket newTCP. listener listenOn: 9999 backlogSize: 10. process := [ [ input := listener waitForAcceptFor: 10. sync signal ] ensure: [ listener close ] ] fork. output := Socket newTCP. output connectTo: #[127 0 0 1] port: 9999. sync wait.

Re: [Pharo-project] Socket question (Was Re: Xtreams up to date)

OK, with two minor tweaks the socket streams started to behave better for me. The whole suite passes sometimes, although the results get often spoiled by transient failures which suggest a race condition in transform write stream. I think it's the the same one I occasionally see on VW side although it's quite rare there. But the fact that it comes up more frequently on Squeak side should help figuring it out, since it makes it more reproduceable. We'll see.

Comment #7 on issue 3522 by Torsten....(a)astares.de: wiki like help contents http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3522 Attached is the new code WikiStyleHelp.6.cs wich allows to use two pragmas: <wikiStyleHelp:> AND <wikiStyleHelp:syntax:> First one is only a shortcut for <wikiStyleHelp: 'blah' syntax: #pier> since #pier is the default syntax (and the only one that is currently supported here). Feel free to work on WikiStyleHelpBuilder to support other syntaxes if required (maybe the help builder should delegate to syntax helper classes or the like). Also attached is a Foo.st example with two annotated methods that demonstrates the use of the pragmas. You can load Foo.st first, since it is pragma based AND DOEST NOT DEPEND on help system in any way. Attachments: Foo.st 911 bytes WikiStyleHelp.6.cs 6.5 KB

Actually today i was attempting to make sure that orange could be turned into any other color of choice by picking a different color in settings. Unfortunately its not so easy, because some widget do not honor / using theme settings correctly. And theme by itself not always honors the settings. As a wish for future, i think we should fold all UI settings under a per-theme settings, so when user selects a concrete UI theme, then theme could control, which UI Settings it makes public and this allows to be modified, and which are not, and should always use built-in (like window color or icons). Then theme could control whether it supports changing particular setting or not. For instance i could use single color (orange) to define colors for multiple things: - Menu selection color - Find replace selection color ... others and to user show only 'Selection color' > Cheers > Alain > -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig.

Comment #5 on issue 3522 by Torsten....(a)astares.de: wiki like help contents http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3522 So we take this changeset (which is the same as from my post on http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/pipermail/pharo-project/2011-January/039166.ht…) and start from it to extend it with the "double pragma".
