Doru, I urge you to not blame the customer. You can hear it from me, or you can hear it from others later. Hopefully Loader will prevent the latter.

[Pharo-project] something in 1.1 broke ImageSegment

by Mariano Martinez Peck

Hi folks. I was just running ImageSegment tests in 11196 and it is broken: 3 failing tests and 5 error. Most of them seems related to the same thing. I have a Syntax Error. Probaly it is due to some stuff integrated in the latests updates to 1.1. Then problem seems when writing the segment to disk and then when loading... I attach an screenshot. Does someone has an idea what can be the problem or how to fix it ? To reproduce, just run the tests ImageSegmentTest, ImageSegmentTestExport and ImageSegmentTestSwap Thanks!!! Mariano

Re: [Pharo-project] Metacello - the missing information??

by Dale Henrichs

Bill, I think that loader is aimed at the consumer side of things ... it looks to be aimed at being the Gofer of Metacello ... so easy scripting is the target. In my mind there are 3 areas where Metacello has need for immediate support: browsing scripting searching Doru's Metaceller is aimed at browsing and does give one a good picture of what is going on with an existing image. Metaceller is under development but can be taken for a spin (http://groups.google.com/group/metacello/browse_frm/thread/335b8177a7b82b5e…) Esteban Lorenzano is working on Loader which is aimed at scripting Metacello tasks. Esteban is still working on Loader, so it's not quite ready for use. Searching is a subject that has only been talked about (see http://groups.google.com/group/metacello/browse_frm/thread/92c3a31178ae4a12…) With 60 configurations and counting we'll soon need better searching tools.

Re: [Pharo-project] Metacello - the missing information??

by Schwab,Wilhelm K

Dale, That's fair. Is loader aimed at the producers of configurations, or is it only about scripting the load/cusumer side? Every time I think I have a generic solution for loading them, I find something else that does not quite fit. If you can do it all from the existing configurations, more power to you - I enjoy being wrong about things like that :) Bill -----Original Message----- From: pharo-project-bounces(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr [mailto:pharo-project-bounces@lists.gforge.inria.fr] On Behalf Of Dale Henrichs Sent: Sunday, February 07, 2010 3:58 PM To: Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr Cc: Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr Subject: Re: [Pharo-project] Metacello - the missing information??
