[Pharo-project] Cog VM app icon
by Igor Stasenko
Hello,
i almost done with generating an app bundle for Cog VM , and i found
that it is using
a Croquet Icon.
Which doesn't seems right to me.
I remember there was a guy , who presented a nice cog icon and other graphics..
anyone knows where i can find them?

Best regards,
Igor Stasenko AKA sig.

sorry suixo
http://gsoc2010.esug.org/projects/suixo-enhance
Context
Suixo is an open source Smalltalk Seaside application framework used to build a.o. a vertical market solution for healthcare. The healthcare solution is currently used daily by about 80 users. Suixo is an application level framework and currently features:
⢠Workflow engine
⢠Generic party model (company / person)
⢠Role based access control
⢠Time tracking
⢠Content management system
So I was wrong.

Re: [Pharo-project] Alien + Cog VM

Hi Eliot,
Nowadays I'm working on Alien in Pharo 1.1 and I'd like to know how to work in Pharo 1.2 running Cog VM, do you have some example using Alien/AlienOpenGL?

So the glue in platforms/Cross/plugins/IA32ABI/dabusiness.h needs rewriting. Specifically the second loop over the arguments at line 45 needs to mimic the code at line 17.

So if you're eager to have Alien callouts work see whether the above change fixes things, in which case I can integrate the fix. But if you're not so eager you could wait for me to push out the FFI changes, but that could take a few weeks.

Re: [Pharo-project] Z3950 on OSX: module yaz3 not found
by Hernán Morales Durand
Laurent, not much progress here :(
I just reproduced the Unix VM crash. First I've linked the library so
we do not have to change every module name call
user@ubuntu:/usr/lib$ ln -T -s /usr/lib/libyaz.so.3.0.0 yaz
and I've tried to execute the library tracer in the shell script
ltrace -f -l /usr/lib/libyaz.so.3.0.0 -o out.txt "$BASE/squeakvm" \
-plugins "$BASE" \
-encoding latin1 \
-vm-display-X11 \
"$ROOT/Contents/Resources/pharo.image"
but it crash the VM too with an unhandled exception even before the
GUI is displayed.
What I've observed is that every FFI call which receives an
ExternalStructure as parameter kills the VM. This is weird because
this doesn't happen in the Windows VM. I ran this little script I use
to debug the library
| conn lib rs rsSize records |
lib := Z3950FFILibrary default.
conn := lib
createConnectionTo: #Alabama asZ3950Server hostName
port: 7090.
lib createOptions.
lib
setConnection: conn
optionName: 'preferredRecordSyntax'
optionValue: 'USMARC'.
rs := lib
searchPqf: conn
query: '@attr 1=1003 collins'.
rsSize := lib resultSetSize: rs.
rsSize > 0
ifFalse: [ 'no results' ].
records := Array new: rsSize.
0 to: rsSize - 1 do: [: pos |
record := lib resultSetRecord: rs position: pos.
record isNil not
ifTrue: [
records
at: pos + 1
put: ( lib
getRecord: record
function: 'render; charset=marc8, iso8859-1'
length: nil ). ] ].
records
and the the doIt just hangs the VM, the console output going through
the Debugger is the following:

it would be nice if someone could tell something about debugging FFI
calls, or just any idea to try.

Re: [Pharo-project] SandstoneDb + SortedCollections

Alright, thank you! I will just sort in my accessor, that seems to be
working pretty well. Thank you for your responses!

[Pharo-project] Issue 3480 in pharo: ToDo: Mac VM cleanup

New issue 3480 by siguctua: ToDo: Mac VM cleanup
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3480
Some comments by John (simply to not get lost in mails):
Oh and btw you'll need to look into the signing logic, I'm not quite sure
where that gem of copy protection sits but don't be surprised if
Apple pursues it a bit more aggressively...
mmm other thoughts.
The plugins *could* be just the raw binaries ala unix builds. The only
reason they were bundles is because in early 2000 era we ran os-9 and os-x
flavors.
That could be all dropped, and maybe just forgo creating plugin bundles.
