[Pharo-project] Voyage: GC collecting random objects?
by Bernat Romagosa Feb. 8, 2013

Feb. 8, 2013

Hi! We've been trying to migrate the data of our Iliad webapp to Voyage, and so far everything was going great, until the garbage collector collected objects it shouldn't have... Here's what we did: We used to have all objects stored in an Instances classVar belonging to their own classes, so: 1. I had our classes return true to *#isVoyageRoot* 2. *ourClasses do: [ :c | (c classVarNamed: #Instances) do: [ :i | i save ]]* 3. I checked MongoDB and all was looking great. From Pharo, we could get all our instances and explore all of their relationships by *OurClass selectAll*. Everything was working, so we thought we didn't need the image stored instances anymore, thus: 4. *ourClasses do: [ :c | c classVarNamed: #Instances put: nil ]* 5. *Smalltalk garbageCollect* 6. *RMUser selectAll* â (long delay) â BOOM â 'Reference not found RMUser: OID(3725800612)' So, should we actually keep references to our instances in the image? I doubt this is the case, cos that'd mean we still have the 2Gb storage limitation, and then having an external DB would not be helping much... Thanks a lot in advance! Bernat. p.s. I've also tried saving copies of my objects, but the result's been the same, after garbage-collecting, I lose references. -- Bernat Romagosa.

[Pharo-project] [Update] Zinc-SSO now supports Dropbox !
by Sven Van Caekenberghe Feb. 8, 2013

Feb. 8, 2013

Hi, I am happy to report that Zinc-SSO now supports the Dropbox API. Which means you can write (web) applications that access (read/write) files in a user's Dropbox account. Jan extended Zinc-SSO-OAuth1-Core to support both version 1 and version 1a of OAuth1 which I then used for a demo. Again, the actual setup is non-trivial, and a public demo is not easy either, so there is only this screenshot: This is what you see after allowing the Zinc-SSO app access to a special 'sandbox' folder called Apps/Zinc-SSO (full 'root' Dropbox access is possible as well). Here you can see there is one file, readme.txt in the folder. If anyone is interested, I can write another email explaining how you can run this demo for yourself on your own account.

[Pharo-project] Native Boost issue
by S Krish Feb. 7, 2013

Feb. 7, 2013

Find that the NBExternalAddress >> readString returns extra bytes... did a simple cmd pipe interface .. and the readPipe with a buffer passed ends up with 4 bytes extra in specific boundary of passed buffer size. viz: if I pass buf := ( NativeBoost allocate: 4096) as the buffer and then read it as buf readString. The size returned is 4100 instead of 4096. For some other lesser reads occassionally it is off by one byte.. Will try to post a simple example to replicate this.
