[ANN] Pharo 6.0 released!

by Esteban Lorenzano

Dear World, The time has come for Pharo 6.0! Pharo is a pure object-oriented programming language and a powerful environment, focused on simplicity and immediate feedback. This is our most significant release yet. Here are some highlights: - Pharo is now provided in 64-bit version in Linux and OSX and brings even better performance and stability (beware, 64bits version is a new technology and a small amount of tests is still failing) - A new code changes management system named Epicea for easier reviewing and recovering of your code easily - Integrated support for Git through an easy-to-use tool for repositories and commits management named Iceberg (as a preview for Pharo 6, it will be the default in Pharo 7) - The unified foreign function interface (UnifiedFFI) for interfacing with the outside world is significantly improved - The PharoVM is now part of OpenSmalltalk initiative - Introduction of object immutability, alternative bytecode sets and block closures independent of outer context - Pharo can now be bootstrapped from source code managed by Git - Pharo modularity is improved - Pharo is faster - The Dark Theme was improved and set as default color theme of Pharo These are just the more prominent highlights, but the details are just as important. We have closed 1474 issues in Pharo 6.0 (a more complete changelog can be found at https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-changelogs/blob/master/Pharo60Change…) While the technical improvements are significant (starting the transition to 64bits is a remarkable achievement), still the most impressive fact is that the new code that got in the main Pharo 6.0 image was contributed by more than 80 people. Pharo is more than code. It is an exciting project involving energetic people.

OSProcess behaves wrong on Mac OS Sierra - Pharo 6

by Cyrille Delaunay

Hello, I am running a Pharo 6 image (Latest update: #60498) on a mac sierra machine (10.12.1). I loaded version 4.6.4 of OSProcess (which is the one loaded with stable version of CommandShell project). I expected these methods to tell that I am running on a "mac unix" system: OSProcess class >> isNonUnixMac OSProcess class >> isUnix OSProcess class >> isUnixMac But they all answer that i am running on a "non unix mac" system. Problem seems to come from the following check to decide if a mac platform is "unix mac" : *(self platformName = 'Mac OS') and: [numericOsVersion >= 1000]* In my case, numericOsVersion is '10.12.1' asInteger, which gives 10 => "non unix" -- Cyrille Delaunay

Hi! I have the following script: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Any objects may be provided in place of this array.
