GT-Inspector silly titles
by Sven Van Caekenberghe Oct. 7, 2014

Oct. 7, 2014

I think the titles of GT-Inspector windows/panes are a bit silly: Notice the 'a ZnClient(a ZnClient)' and 'a Dictionary(a Dictionary(...))' where the class name is repeated. I think it is very important to honour the standard/general Smalltalk approach and assume the #printString already contains the class name. If not, you are basically punishing everybody who went through the trouble of writing custom #printString implementation (like me, I do this for most classes). I saw the whole #display thing, but you can't force everybody to rewrite #printString to #gtDisplayString or whatever. Sven

Issue 14160: Introduce isXXX dialect testing methods to SmalltalkImage to ease cross-dialect development
by Jan Vrany Oct. 7, 2014

Oct. 7, 2014

Hi guys, I've just opened: https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/14160/Introduce-isXXX-dialect-testing-met… Introduce isXXX (isPharo, isVisualWorks, ...) dialect testing methods to SmalltalkImage to ease multi-dialect development. RATIONALE: Commonly used approach to solve differences among dialect is to use a sort of platform object and dispatch there for troublesome operations that has to be specialized. This platform object is usually in platform specific package. Other option is to load some library like Grease or Sport. The problem of the first approach is that brings to much (unnecessary) burden when used for two, three things. The amount of of the code and management is way to bigger then the amount of the code that has to be specialized. Loading Grease/Sport on the other hand introduces a dependency on an external package - not worth of for two or three things. The proposed dialect testing messages would allow for simple, #ifdef-like idiom like: | stream | ... ((Smalltalk respondsTo: #isSomeCoolDialect) and:[Smalltalk isSomeCoolDialect]) ifTrue:[ stream := CharacterWriteStream on: (String new: 10) ] ifFalse:[ stream := WriteStream on: (String new: 10) ] The #respondsTo: check, while not nice, is required as at the moment not all dialects could be trusted to have these testing messages. Putting these methods may not stick with Pharo standard (whatever it is), but Smalltalk global is probably one of the very few that are present in pretty much every Smalltalk implementation. Other option would be to place them to the class side of an Object (which is amost certainly present everywhere), however Smalltalk isPharo reads better than Object isPharo. Best, Jan

Font & Theming of GT 'composite rubricText' is weird
by Sven Van Caekenberghe Oct. 6, 2014

Oct. 6, 2014

The font and theme rendering of GT 'composite rubricText' (like when inspecting Strings) is a bit off, IMHO: The font is different, does not appear in the settings and is not influenced by the theme. Sven

Re: [Pharo-dev] WhatsUp from: 2014-10-06 until: 2014-10-19
by Stephan Eggermont Oct. 6, 2014

Oct. 6, 2014

### Here's what I've been up to since the last WhatsUp: - Showed "the lessons we have not yet learned from smalltalk" at Global Scrum Gathering in Berlin (fast feedback loop with debugger-driven development, increased transparency by visualizing code, scaling down by increasing the abstraction level with DSLs) - Added a Storyboard build for Pharo 3 & 4 - Verified that PostgresV3 driver works in Pharo. PostgresV3 mirrors a database scheme and supports writing stored procedures in the browser. In Pharo the highlighting is different, parser too. - Migrated OverviewPyramid in Moose - Added #'Pharo4.x' in several Moose configurations. The SmalltalkImporter needs to be split as Pharo4 no longer has PackageInfo Stephan

Presetting variables to Spec's TextModel.
by Peter UhnÃ¡k Oct. 6, 2014

Oct. 6, 2014

Hi, I'm trying to preset variables to TextModel but I'm not sure if/how can such thing be achieved. With Workspace (in pre-GT Pharo) I could do ws := Workspace openContents: 'a'. b := Dictionary new. b add: (WorkspaceVariable key: #a value: 42). ws setBindings: b. Unfortunately Workspace isn't Spec's ComposableModel so I can't just reuse it. Is something similar possible with TextModel? Perhaps somehow changing model to Workspace (without actually opening the workspace) or something? Inspector seems to do something like that but my investigation ended up in OpalCompiler which is way over my head. :( Thanks, Peter
