Empty Package Names
by Sean P. DeNigris Feb. 4, 2015

Feb. 4, 2015

I noticed that in 4.0 one gets a (resume-able) exception when trying to define a class in category ''. Why? Is it true, as the error message states, that "the Category should not be empty"? One of our key principles inherited from Smalltalk is to treat the programmer like they know what they're doing. Although only a minor annoyance in this case, I often create classes in empty categories specifically because they are throwaways - like a temp directory, and was a bit confused by the debugger popping up, especially before I realized that the exception was resume-able... Also, that made me think about something else... What if the debugger somehow made it immediately obvious whether the exception was resume-able? That could be useful in cases like these to make the user's options clearer. ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Empty-Package-Names-tp4803642.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Gofer loadStable weirdness
by Sean P. DeNigris Feb. 4, 2015

Feb. 4, 2015

In #30862 (can't test in 4.0 because no stable TWM version declared)... Gofer it smalltalkhubUser: 'Pharo' project: 'MetaRepoForPharo30'; configurationOf: 'TilingWindowManager'; loadStable. gives the error: "Could not resolve: TWM [TWM-BernardoContreras.68]..." But then the following DoIt on the Config downloaded above shows no such package... ConfigurationOfTilingWindowManager project stableVersion record loadDirective linear load : linear load : 3.0.2 [ConfigurationOfTilingWindowManager] load : TWM-Core-PhilippeBack.17 load : TWM-GUI-PhilippeBack.18 load : TWM-KeyMapping-LaurentLaffont.5 load : TWM-Tests-LaurentLaffont.5 load : TWM-Theme-PhilippeBack.5 And indeed "ConfigurationOfTilingWindowManager project stableVersion load" succeeds. ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Gofer-loadStable-weirdness-tp4803661.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

by Thierry Goubier Feb. 4, 2015

Feb. 4, 2015

Hi all, anybody knows how to check if the AioPlugin is included in the current stable Pharo vm(*)? OSProcess is complaining of a missing AioPlugin, and I remember a thread where this was solved by integrating it in the vm build. Thanks, Thierry * : The vm one get when doing wget -O- get.pharo.org/30+vm | bash

Hi, I just discovered that if you ask #size to a non-eistent file reference you obtain False. I submitted an issue @ https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/14862/is-this-possible-asFileReference-si… Cheers, Roby

Who are the experts?
by Roberto Minelli Feb. 4, 2015

Feb. 4, 2015

Dear all, I have some questions about the following topics: Morphic, the Zinc-HTTP-Client-Server, and NautilusRefactoring. I am wondering if someone can help ;) I am visiting RMoD @ INRIA these days (I am now sitting at the âvisiting tablesâ @ 3rd floor of INRIA). If someone is willingness to help, please come forward! To get an idea (and hopefully to collect some answers from people outside of Lille) here are my doubts ### Morphic - How can I assess the âz indexâ of windows? For each window Iâd like to know the % that is visible on screen, i.e., not covered from other windows. - Is there a âgeneral patternâ on how to extract which entity is âdisplayedâ on a window? In System Browsers is easy, what about other types of windows? ### Zinc-HTTP-Client-Server - How can I do a real upload (HTTP post) in background? ### NautilusRefactoring - How does it work? Why there are different methods to remove a class, for example? e.g., NautilusRefactoring>>#removeClasses: vs. AbstractTool>>#removeClasses: - Why #removeClasses: is triggered before the actual removal (i.e., confirmation dialogue)? Cheers and thanks in advance, Roberto

GitFileTree - Git command not found (is which shell startup script is run when pharo launched from UI)
by Christophe Demarey Feb. 4, 2015

Feb. 4, 2015

Hi, I wanted to give a try to gitfiletree but I got a 'Git command not found'. Indeed, the git command is not in the path Here is the code used by GitFileTree to run a git command: | c output | [ c := PipeableOSProcess command: 'export'. output := ReadStream on: c output. c succeeded ifFalse: [ self error: 'Git error: ' , c errorPipelineContents ] ] ensure: [ c closePipes ]. output I replaced the command to execute by 'export' to get all environment variables. I noticed that '/usr/local/bin' is not in the path (used by brew). To get my full environment (.profile executed), I need to run pharo from a shell with the same environment. The question is: how to run Pharo from the UI and get this environment? I tried with a .bashrc, bash_profile without success. Any idea? Thanks, Christophe.

Anonymous classes should be browseable
by HernÃ¡n Morales Durand Feb. 3, 2015

Feb. 3, 2015

I want to discuss case 14789 ( https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/14789/Nautilus-assumes-a-class-always-und…) because a class should be browseable even without a definition. Anonymous classes are still classes. If Nautilus project cannot deal with the whole Smalltalk power then it is poorly designed and I wonder what's the advantage over the old OmniBrowser... HernÃ¡n
