pharo home page tagline
by Ben Coman April 17, 2015

April 17, 2015

On reddit I see some questions regarding the "IDE and OS rolled into one" tagline on the pharo homepage. Of course it makes sense to me, but I can see how it might not be clear to others, who might even think "I don't need that, I already have an OS." I think the tagline would be strong enough without it - less is more. cheers -ben

Is Pharo Launcher Ready?
by Sean P. DeNigris April 17, 2015

April 17, 2015

IIUC we are planning on making Pharo Launcher the default download. Right now, our installation options are a bit scattered. The Ubuntu package installs Launcher, and the Mac and Windows buttons at http://pharo.org/download download image+VM zip files. Should we change the ppa to install an image+VM? Or should we change the Mac/Windows buttons to download Launcher installers? A possible reservation about the second option is that there was a recent report on this list of failed installation on Windows 8. Was that ever investigated? Once we converge on one process, I will update the other GNU/Linux distro instructions to mirror that. ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Is-Pharo-Launcher-Ready-tp4819384.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

GTSpotter and example previews
by Nicolai Hess April 17, 2015

April 17, 2015

Why is this in the release? GTSpotter now shows the result of gtExamples in the preview. This looks so ugly. (for example browse the "Examples" cateogry for GLMCompositeBrick) If new features aren't mentioned anywhere, it is pretty difficult to test or to review them.

New User Question on Reddit
by Sean P. DeNigris April 17, 2015

April 17, 2015

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9390760 I installed this for Ubuntu 12.04. When I fired it up, it requested I choose and build a source file (different from Pharo 3). Then when it started, it said, "Pharo cannot locate the source file named /usr/lib/pharo-vm/PharoV40.sources. Any ideas what to do? TIA, Steve ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/New-User-Question-on-Reddit-tp4820098.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: [Pharo-dev] Permission denied issue when moving Bloc to PharoExtras
by Guillermo Polito April 17, 2015

April 17, 2015

I see you're already there in the permission list. I think you should go to the monticello browser and add the pharo extras repository with your user and password. Then Gofer will be able to find your password to commit. Sorry I skipped that "detail" when giving you the scripts :/.

Versioning Jenkins Logic
by Sean P. DeNigris April 17, 2015

April 17, 2015

Right now, the https://ci.inria.fr/pharo/view/4.0-VM/job/PharoVM-CentOs6 Jenkins job has the following shell script embedded in Jenkins. As you can see, there is quite a bit of logic there. Wouldn't it be better to put this type of thing under SCM? If so, I'm happy to do it, but where would be the best place? Is there an existing location that could fit? #!bash -lex cd "$WORKSPACE" # Set environment ============================================================ ZIP_FILTER='*' if [ "$OS" == "win" ]; then set -e # Stop the execution if a command fails! ZIP_FILTER=' *.exe *.dll' fi # Download the latest sources ================================================ wget --quiet files.pharo.org/vm/src/vmmaker-image.zip wget --quiet files.pharo.org/vm/src/cog.tar.gz # Unpack sources ============================================================= tar -xzf cog.tar.gz || echo # echo needed for Windows build (error on symlinks creation) mkdir -p cog/build mkdir -p cog/image cd cog/image unzip -o ../../vmmaker-image.zip # Generate sources =========================================================== #wget -O- get.pharo.org/vm40 | bash #wget -O pharovm-centos65.zip https://github.com/philippeback/pharovm-centos65/archive/master.zip #unzip pharovm-centos65.zip #mv pharovm-centos65-master/zeroconf-centos/* . #rmdir pharovm-centos65-master/zeroconf-centos # Only execute for a new slave # cd pharovm-centos65-master # sudo install-requisites.sh wget -O vm.zip http://files.pharo.org/vm/pharo/linux/centos/latest.zip unzip vm.zip wget http://files.pharo.org/sources/PharoV30.sources.zip unzip PharoV30.sources.zip ./pharo --nodisplay generator.image eval "PharoVMBuilder buildOnJenkins: '$OS'" || (cat stderr; exit 1) cd "$WORKSPACE" tar -czf sources.tar.gz -C cog . # Compile ==================================================================== cd cog/build sh build.sh # Archive ==================================================================== cd "$WORKSPACE/cog/results" zip -r "vm.zip" $ZIP_FILTER cp -f vm.zip ../../"${BUILD_NUMBER}.zip" cp -f vm.zip ../../"latest.zip" mv -f vm.zip ../../"Pharo-VM-${OS}-latest.zip" # success exit 0 ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Versioning-Jenkins-Logic-tp4820056.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Pharo Image Freeze
by Gaurav Singh April 17, 2015

April 17, 2015

Is there any way to get back the Pharo image working when it freezes without closing the Pharo image because many times the work isn't saved and then it costs a lot restarting the pharo image?

Shorter Pharo Launcher download link
by Dmitri Zagidulin April 16, 2015

April 16, 2015

This is in the same vein as Sean's recent 'Clean up Download Instructions' email. While updating the Pharo By Example chapter on installing Pharo, we decided to mention the Pharo Launcher project as a convenient way to use multiple images, etc. Unfortunately, as far as I know, the download link for it is: https://ci.inria.fr/pharo/view/Launcher/job/Launcher/PHARO=40,VERSION=stabl… (And even then, you have to scroll down to the tiny 'Last Successful Artifacts' section). That's a bit awkward to put in a book for people to type out, to say the least. Is there any way we can either: 1) Use an existing URL shortener to link to that 2) Have some Apache-redirected URLs off of pharo.org? Something like pharo.org/launcher/ that would have the download links to the various Launcher builds? The same also goes for some of the books, by the way. In a later chapter, we link to Pharo for the Enterprise, and we actually type out the link: https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/PharoForTheEnterprise/lastSucces… Sub-optimal. :)
