Board clarification around Spec
by Esteban Lorenzano Aug. 29, 2014

Aug. 29, 2014

Hi, Due the recent known success, the board feels some clarification is needed. So, here it is: Spec is integral part of Pharo, and we will keep it as part of our distribution. Is our intention that community continues enhancing it, since like always, there is room for improvement. just that :) Esteban

Opal, custom compilers and class-side methods
by Camille Teruel Aug. 29, 2014

Aug. 29, 2014

Hi all, With Opal, if you want to customize how methods are compiled into a class you can override #compilerClass on class-side: MyClass class>>#compilerClass ^ MySpecialCompiler However this custom compiler is not taken into account when compiling methods on the class-side: MyClass class compilerClass ---> OpalCompiler I was expecting to have the same compiler class for the metaclass. The consequence is that right now there is no way to specialize how methods are compiled in *one* metaclass. Is it on purpose or is it a bug? Also is there cases where one wants instance-side methods and class-side methods to be compiled with different compiler classes? My rough guess is that in most cases you want the same compiler class, but I don't fell confortable forcing that. So I propose to add a method #classSideCompilerClass: Class>>#classSideCompilerClass ^ self compilerClass Then compilerClass can be implemented for metaclasses: Metaclass>>#compilerClass ^ self instanceSide classSideCompilerClass Likewise, if I override compilerClass, it is taken into account for both instance-side and class-side methods but I can still say that I want a different compiler for class-side methods by overriding classSideCompilerClass. Tell me what you think about it and if you're ok, I open a bug entry with the slice. Cheers, Camille

still getting vm bug...
by Johan Brichau Aug. 28, 2014

Aug. 28, 2014

Hi, I am still getting the vm bug mentioned here: https://pharo.fogbugz.com/default.asp?11130#103698 See screenshot: in my case, loading from filetree almost always throws the bug. I am using the latest Mac OS X pharo vm. If I change the method in the screenshot by extracting the assignment into a separate statement, the problem disappears. However, I can also still reproduce it reliably with Krisâ code snippet from the same issue thread: 1 to: 1000 do: [ :i | | string | Transcript show: 'Iteration '; show: i; cr. 1 timesRepeat: [ (string := String new: 1000 withAll: $a) reversed. ]. ]. (NOTE: Transcript must be open!) Reopen? Add a new report? Johan

HI guys, is it possible? Iâve tried `autoDeselection: false`, `multiSelection: true`â¦ and it continues to deselect selected items :(. Maybe there is any kind of example how to do a classic checkbox tree? For example if we have filesystem and want to select which items to backup. Uko

Substitution of ' to " in TextEditor>>shiftEnclose
by Maximilian Bareis Aug. 28, 2014

Aug. 28, 2014

Hi, I am wondering if the upper part of TextEditor>>shiftEnclose: aKeyboardEvent "Insert or remove bracket characters around the current selection." | char left right startIndex stopIndex oldSelection which text | char := aKeyboardEvent keyCharacter. char = $9 ifTrue: [ char := $( ]. char = $, ifTrue: [ char := $< ]. char = $[ ifTrue: [ char := ${ ]. char = $' ifTrue: [ char := $" ]. is a bug or a feature. For german keyboards it causes that pressing the single Apostroph (which is reached via shift-#) is substituted to ". So enclosing a textblock and pressing ' leads to comments around the block, which is really annoying. I am curious, because this substitution does not make any sense to me. The keyCharacter is always the "real" character ( $( instead of $9 ). Also it seems that this substitution reduces the keyboard to the en-Layout, therefore breaks the separation of concerns. Is there any reason, why this substitution takes place? Regards Max

Looking for PhD students
by Michele Lanza Aug. 28, 2014

Aug. 28, 2014

Dear all, this is an informal call for PhD students. Iâm Michele Lanza, head of the REVEAL research group from the University of Lugano in Switzerland, active in Smalltalk since many years (16 to be precise). The group, which you might know from tools like CodeCity, SpyWare, Softwarenaut, SPO, etc. and its involvement in Moose and Pharo in general, currently features 4 PhD students and 1 postdoc. 3 PhD students program with and in Pharo, namely Yuriy Tymchuk, Roberto Minelli, and Tommaso dal Sasso, who recently attended ESUG. Iâm looking for one or maybe even two PhD students. Topics with me are normally open and agreed upon by both sides, as long as itâs fun and relevant. I have some funky open topics. The only requirements are an open mind, good OO skills, the willingness to learn and to work hard. Drop me a line if youâre interested or know anyone whoâs interested. Thanks Michele BTW, I could say things about the nice climate in Lugano, the relatively good salary conditions, the generous available funding for traveling and hardware, etc. but if you come only for that you better stay away from me :-)
