[Issue Tracker] input of submitters/bug fixers needed
by Marcus Denker Sept. 28, 2013

Sept. 28, 2013

Hello, The issue tracker is again at over 500 entries: https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/filters/33/All-by-project Please, if you submitted a bug in the past, check it's status! -> Maybe someone asked you a trivial question that *you* can answer in 10 seconds, but if you don't, the issue can not be moved forward? -> Maybe you fixed an issue but there was some problem ("You said you uploaded a Slice but I can't find it!". *you* can fix this in 20 seconds, whereas for everyone else this means re-creating your work from scratch. -> Maybe your bug that you reported ages ago is already fixed? You can check this very very quickly, whereas for everyone else this means quite some effort of understanding, re-creating and even then not being sure if it's really fixed. -> Maybe you added an Issue which is more your private project that nobody else will work on, anyway. Maybe you can think about not having an issue for that? -> Maybe you reported some real triviality. Why not fix it yourself? Does it really need someone else to submit a Slice? Marcus

I tried to setup a travis validation build [1] for the pharo-vm repository on github [2]. Of course as usual I missed some libraries, does anybody know what the corresponding libs are for the following errors? /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lSM /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lICE /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lGL the currently installed dependencies can be found in .travis.yml file [3].

SmalltalkHub use of LESS stylesheets
by Esteban A. Maringolo Sept. 27, 2013

Sept. 27, 2013

Hi all, The SmalltalkHub website seems to be using LESS stylesheets, which are downloaded in a sequential order, and it takes ~20sec to download the styles. Wouldn't it be better to compile the LESS stylesheets to regular CSS files (combined and minified in a single file would be great). LESS stylesheets are not meant to be used in production environments. I thinks that only with that the speedup will be significant. Regards, Esteban A. Maringolo

Strange FileDoesNotExistException when loading code from Seaside...
by Mariano Martinez Peck Sept. 27, 2013

Sept. 27, 2013

Hi guys, I have a link in a Seaside app that allow us to trigger a Metacello load to update the source code. It has a weird error....I get a FileDoesNotExistException with the .changes file, which indeed exists. The error is in #readOnlyFileNamed:. I attach an screenshot of the stack. What is funny is that the compiled method that has the problem is always (or at least most of the times) either WAAttribute>>#accept: or WAAttribute>>#isAdvanced ... More funny...if I open a debugger in the problem, and I re-execute readOnlyFileNamed: it works! (of course, because the .changes file does exists). Does anyone had a similar problem? Thanks, -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com

UI Mess
by Sean P. DeNigris Sept. 27, 2013

Sept. 27, 2013

We have FileDialogWindow, which is a cool little class which implements all the cool things you may want to do when selecting a file, for example: - answer either a directory, file, file entry, etc. - set an initial directory - set the sorting block Life is good. <rant> Then, we take the entire domain of opening files and cram it into UITheme's chooseXyzFileAbcIn:j:k:l: methods. UITheme is also a nice little class... with 570 instance methods... wait, wth! Okay, but forgetting polymorph's design for a moment... Then, we take the handful of options that UITheme gives us and funnel those through UIManager, which exposes... 3. So out of the entire domain of selecting files, we have three safe options available. This doesn't seem to work. </rant> Naively, it seems to me that much of the original power could be retained if things were reversed a bit. For example, instead of implementing file selection functionality in three places (FileDialogWindow, UITheme, and UIManager), could we do: 1. FileDialogWindow implements the API for selecting files 2. UITheme only returns an appropriately-themed object (wth are "services" doing in UITheme anyway?!) 3. UIManager subclasses return either (via e.g. "UIManager default fileDialogWindow"): a) The themed object or b) a Dummy object that no-ops #1's API I'd be willing to give it a try if any of that sounds promising or if someone has a better idea. ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/UI-Mess-tp4710579.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
