by Tudor Girba Oct. 30, 2013

Oct. 30, 2013

We are happy to announce version 4.9 of the Moose Suite: http://moosetechnology.org/download/4.9 This is a minor release still based on Pharo 2.0. The differences from Moose 4.8 are: The Mondrian engine was removed. The transition to Roassal is now complete. - Small fixes in Roassal layouts and rendering. - Small fix in FAMIX regarding manipulation of accesses. - Small visual fix in Glamour for rendering splitters in tables. A list of issues addressed in this release can be found at: http://code.google.com/p/moose-technology/issues/list?can=1&q=status=Fixed%… The Moose Suite 4.9 comes for each platform as a separate bundle: - Moose Suite 4.9 for Mac https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/18323746/Moose/moose_suite_4_9-mac.zip - Moose Suite 4.9 for Windows https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/18323746/Moose/moose_suite_4_9-win.zip - Moose Suite 4.9 for Linux https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/18323746/Moose/moose_suite_4_9-linux.zip The Moose Suite 4.9 can also be loaded in a Pharo 2.0 image either from the Configuration Browser, or by executing the following script: Gofer new smalltalkhubUser: 'Moose' project: 'Moose'; package: 'ConfigurationOfMoose'; load. ((Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfMoose) project version: '4.9-snapshot') load

VirtualBox with host-only interface on Mavericks
by Max Leske Oct. 30, 2013

Oct. 30, 2013

For all of you who use VirtualBox on OS X with host-only interfaces: VirtualBox on Mavericks will prevent the OS from shutting down if you have host-only interfaces configured (and will clutter your dock with VirtualBox iconsâ¦). You may use the attached bash script to fix the symptoms (thereâs no solution yet). You will need to edit the script to match the number of host-only interfaces you have configured. Cheers, Max

Tests with multiple processes
by Norbert Hartl Oct. 29, 2013

Oct. 29, 2013

Iâm working on project that deals with server to server communication. For the test suite it is necessary to simulate the two ends of the communication within one test. The problem is that in a single threaded environment you make a send call SC from server A to B but the response of B will happen before SC returned. That makes every state change the happens in A after SC bogus from a call flow perspective. There are two approaches that have their own problems. 1) Until now Iâm reordering parts of the call stack to simulate the return of a call before the actual call is sent. But now I have nested sends that make my simple approach not working anymore. I could elaborate my approach by using something like delimited continuations to make a less brittle approach to stack call reordering in order to cope with the problem. That would need some work and the stack in the debugger will look a little bit odd/confusing. 2.) The product will later have a dispatcher process that dispatches each send operation in its own process. That would solve one problem: the timing of when actions happen. But Iâm not sure if it will be easy to orchestrate actions in a way that I would call controlled in order to have reliable tests. Are there any approaches to simulate coroutines in a single thread environment or approaches to deal with multiple processes within one process? It is hard to explain and I hope my description of the problem is understandable thanks in advance, Norbert

How to change my user name
by Nicolas Cellier Oct. 29, 2013

Oct. 29, 2013

For some reasons, I am LucFabresse in the last Pharo 3.0 that I downloaded. I'd like to restore myself, where can I change the username? (I saw way too much code related...) The menu 'System>Switch User' of course does not work if it ever was the answer (PanelMorph does not understand layout:) I know what bleeding edge means, but all these little annoyances divert me from the contribution job I assigned to myself :( Nicolas

[Fuel] How to tell Fuel *not* to encode references?
by roberto.minelli＠usi.ch Oct. 29, 2013

Oct. 29, 2013

Hi, Iâm struggling with Fuel and I probably discovered my problem. When trying to serialize an object (that represents a development session, i.e., contains some meta-data (title, author, etc.) and some objects representing actions of the developer) I often encounter problem with some BlockClosureâs which are somewhat corrupt and Fuel crashes and cannot serialize them. We already discussed this issue in this mailing list a while ago with Max. I do not ask directly Fuel to serialize some BlockClosures, so my intuition is that Fuel serializes all the references to the objects I am trying to serialize. Am I right? Is there any way to tell Fuel not to do so? Cheers and thanks for the help, Roberto
