Question about closure compilation
by Sven Van Caekenberghe June 29, 2013

June 29, 2013

Hi, Does the closure returned from | foo | foo := #( data 1 2 3 ). [ :x | x + 1 ] close over foo ? Since foo is not used, it should not, right ? But it seems that the outer context of the block closure knows about foo, although the value seems nil. And if it closes over foo, foo's value/binding won't be GC-ed so long as there is a reference to the block closure, even though foo is not practically accessible. Sven

brief explanation of the new class organizer
by Esteban Lorenzano June 29, 2013

June 29, 2013

Hi, So... this is what I made las days (as a conclusion of many days before): The old class organizer was a mess. Basically, it considered all protocols as strings, and for worst it was arranging them into a flat array. While the array stuff is just an internal problem (objects outside doesn't know how are they managed, and that's good), having protocols-as-strings is essentially bad (no need for explanations about that). The new class organizer just do what is more or less obvious: 1) replaces string protocols for first class instances (now instances of Protocol). 2) internally, manages protocols and methods in protocols in a much better and fashion way. (btw, the implementation was made by Ben, thanks!) the real important part is the point 1. Now we can start to assign real behavior to Protocol, For instance, I will create an ExtensionProcol which will contain a direct pointer to it's real package. That means that we do not need weird computations to get a method extension package (and when the tools allows us, we could get rid off the *Blah). I would like also to be able to have "composite" protocols (like "private"+"accesing"), etc. It will allow a refactor of current RPackage implementation, allowing us to simplify the SystemAnnounce mechanism (and speeding up monticello, if my calculous are fine). And like this, there are still a huge room for improvement, I hope many that I do not even thought about :) cheers, Esteban

Metacello tutorial: ToolSet browse: ?!
by Torsten Bergmann June 28, 2013

June 28, 2013

>I guess I have to rewrite my tutorials for pharo2.0 Easiest ist to write them in Markup and then use them in "Pharo Online Help" Just open a fresh Pharo 2.0, open Tools -> Config Browser load Pharo Online Help and run the local webserver that serves the tutorials Please try it - its much easier and more powerful than "old" help Have fun Torsten

I guess that ToolSet browse: MetacelloTutorialConfig selector: #version01:. has been superseded by something else in Pharo 2.x + What to use there? Has Nautilus something for that purpose? Thx, Phil

Hi we got this discussion about the VM on 64 bits so do we try to take the opportunity to get a crowdsource donate button for it? Esteban/igor what is your estimate for such task? Stef
