[ANN AthensSketch] A playground for drawings with Athens.
by Nicolai Hess March 7, 2015

March 7, 2015

The main purpose of this packages is to ease the creation of simple drawings and provide a rich set of examples for Athens drawing API. -------------- Gofer new smalltalkhubUser: 'NicolaiHess' project: 'AthensSketch'; configuration; load. ConfigurationOfAthensSketch loadDevelopment. AthensSketchBrowser open. ----------------- This is a simple playground for Athens drawings. Just subclass AthensSketch and define your own sketch drawing in the #drawStepOn: method. It provides basic frame based animation (play/pause/stop). Open a player with ASketchExampleColors openPlayer', or a simple viewer morph with ASketchExampleColors openView (start and stop rendering from the morph menu) The AthensSketchBrowser lists all defined AthensSketch subclasses. (Basic examples from package AthensSketch and some more examples from package ASketchExamples). You can step through the list of examples, start and stop the drawing, or view and edit the drawing code. It is great that we have now a vector based drawing API. The (old) Canvas API is already great for pixel based drawings. A rich API and many good things if you discover it. And Athens is a addition that can increase our possibilities. There were some questions about Athens, what it is and what it is used for, maybe this helps. nicolai

About Spec menu:

Hi I would like to get your point of view about this code ListModel>>menu: aBlock "<api: #block getter: #menu registration: #whenMenuChanged:>" "Set the block used to defined the menu" menuHolder value: aBlock I have problem to see a case where the end programmer would like to get notify when the menu is changed. I'm thinking that I will remove the valueHolder holder blocks that create menu. Stef

Athens: Slow image paint (was: [ANN AthensSketch] A playground for drawings with Athens.

This one uses BitBlt to copy the data, but AFAIK this paint combination rule (24) does not create a premultiplied alpha form. But this one is much faster.

New Cog VMs available
by Eliot Miranda March 6, 2015

March 6, 2015

Hi All, recent instability seems to have been cured. Please find new VMs at http://www.mirandabanda.org/files/Cog/VM/VM.r3266. For Squeakers, these are close to release candidates for the upcoming 5.0 release. I have one last modification to do with free space handling on start-up in Spur (the current VMs over-allocate free space), and maybe a minor speed-up of the LargeIntegersPlugin; other than that I intend bug fixes only. CogVM binaries as per VMMaker.oscog-eem.1085/r3266 Avoid duplication in fetching active process and scheduler in process-switch machinery. Take advantage of endianness for simpler large integer initialization. Simplify primitiveMakePoint. Include primitiveMethodXray to introspect on Cog state of methods. Refactor positive32BitIntegerFor: and signed32BitIntegerFor: in the realization that these reduce to essentially integerObjectOf: in 64-bit Spur. The idea is to inline if in 64-bit Spur but not if in the 32-bit VMs. Add notOption: processing to allow excluding noInlineSigned32BitIntegerFor: et al. Add hasSixtyFourBitImmediates to no longer assume that wordSize = 8 implies 64-bit immediates. Use positiveMachineIntegerFor: in place of positive32BitIntegerFor: in some plugins. Simplify primitiveDisplayString given isArray:. Simplify two B3DAcceleratorPlugin prims given topRemappableOop and isArray: Slang: Changes to type inferrence/propagation and inlining to better support 64-bit Spur. See change log of VMMaker.oscog in 1067-1085 range for exhaustive details. -- best, Eliot

Fwd: Re: Example implementation of associations with Slots in Pharo 4.0
by stepharo March 6, 2015

March 6, 2015

The problem is that a relation may be one to one, one to many, many to one or many to many. In each name, the first word refers to upper source multiplicity and the last word to the upper target multiplicity. So according to me RelatedToOne has not the same meaning than OneRelatedTo or ToMany. I am not sure that you want to describe the source multiplicity, so ToOne and ToMany seem more adapted. In Java persistance is specified with the @OneToOne, @OneToMany, @ManyToOne and @ManyToMany annotations.

Using Pillar on Windows
by Jean-Christophe Bach March 6, 2015

March 6, 2015

Hi, I was trying to use Pillar on a Windows computer and I discovered that there is no nice script to download and use it as for GNU/Linux. I was wondering if there were Windows users who did it. If so, it would be cool to commit it on Pillar repository. JC
