[Pharo-project] How i can retrieve the global by its name?
by Igor Stasenko May 2, 2013

May 2, 2013

Hi, all do not think that i am drunk or vent crazy, asking such silly question, which at best should be asked only by beginner :) I know the answer: Smalltalk at: #SomeName or Smalltalk globals at: #SomeName what stroke me, just now, that both answers is wrong! It should be: #SomeName asGlobal (or suggest more appropriate/precise method name for a symbol) optionally, we could also have one, with handling absent case: #SomeName asGlobalIfAbsent: [] same , but only if present: #SomeName asGlobalIfPresent: [:global | ] Currently, there is 941 references to 'Smalltalk' global in my pharo image. If we introduce this convenience method, it will shrink this number considerably, not saying that code will be more elegant and concise compare: (Smalltalk globals at: #Foo) doSomething and #Foo asGlobal doSomething P.S. What really strikes me is why we don't have such method from very beginning, and instead refer to 'Smalltalk' all over the places. Some things are so deeply indoctrinated in our minds, that we don't even think that it can be different. -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko.

(We > always do, and that gives us problems later ) That reminds me: I found a bug when aliasing binary selectors in Traits. Until today Squeak's Associations printed without whitespace around the ->, so in a trait like Object subclass: MyObject uses: TMyTrait @ {#* -> #+} the Browser would print the TraitComposition as "TMyTrait @ {#*->#+}". (This isn't valid Smalltalk: it's the Symbol #*-> followed by garbage.} I'm not sure what the situation is in Pharo (I'm not in a position to check it right now), but it's worth a look. frank > On Thu, May 2, 2013 at 6:33 PM, Chris Cunningham <cunningham.cb(a)gmail.com> > wrote: >> >> On Thu, May 2, 2013 at 9:29 AM, Esteban Lorenzano <estebanlm(a)gmail.com> >> wrote: >>> >>> >>> #bindedClass >>> #bindedClassOn: anEnvironment >>> >>> looks clearer to me. >>> >>> Esteban >> >> maybe: >> #boundClass >> #boundClassOn: anEnvironment >> >

[Pharo-project] Unix socket plugin patch for systemd
by Max Leske May 2, 2013

May 2, 2013

We've created a patch for the unix socket plugin that allows for socket activation via systemd. This is how it works: 1. tell systemd to link a socket to the vm (e.g. 8080) 2. send a request to the socket 3. systemd will launch the vm and hold the request until the image is connected to the port 4. (here's where the patch comes in) connect to the socket in the image (e.g. by starting WAKom - WAKom startOn: 8080) The patch is necessary because the primitive would fail when connecting to the socket (the plugin thinks that the socket is already in use). So here's my question: who is responsible for the plugin or would like to integrate the patch? Cheers, Max

[Pharo-project] SUnit design question
by Camillo Bruni May 2, 2013

May 2, 2013

I'm not sure if I asked that question before, but why is there no dedicated TestRunner model in SUnit? (detailed question further down) There is a TestRunner but that is clearly a UI part. We have right now 2 places in the system where that would come in handy: HDTestReport and the CommandLineTestRunner. Both places modify the output of the test runner, so to say instrument the test runs. see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16315726/how-do-i-instrument-test-runner…
