[Pharo-project] Sources files and warnings
by Camillo Bruni Jan. 11, 2013

Jan. 11, 2013

We currently ran into a problem with the automatic sources-file downloading. Looking at the code I find it overly cluttered... So I wanted to introduce proper Warnings to deal with these cases: - SourcesFileCorrupted - SourcesFileNotFound - ChangesFileCorrupted - ChangesFileNotFound So I we properly inform the user and deal with edge cases...

Yes, as I wrote I just call SetWindowTextA() function from Windows API. see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms633546(v=vs.85).a… This one is in User32.dll which comes with Windows.

But does the system automatically recompile importers of shared pools when bindings are added or removed from shared pools? At least Squeak does not. And this is an issue in the context of loading Monticello packages. With the VMMaker I refactored a lot of globals into shared p[ools when I decomposed ObjectMemory from the Interpreter hierarchy and added the Cogit hierarchy. I would have to manually recompile to get the references right on e.g. moving a variable from being a class variable of ObjectMemory into some shared pool, or on moving the variable from one shared pool to another. > > Class>>bindingOf: varName > "Answer the binding of some variable resolved in the scope of the > receiver, or nil > if variable with such name is not defined" > > "The lookup recurses up to superclasses looking inside their class > and shared pools, > but not the environment, since two classes, even if they have > ancestry relationship, > could use different environments. > That's why we doing an environment lookup only as a last step of > symbol lookup > and taking only the environment of receiver only, not any of it's > superclass(es) " > > | aSymbol binding | > aSymbol := varName asSymbol. > > ^ (self innerBindingOf: aSymbol) ifNil: [ > self environment bindingOf: aSymbol > ] > > > Class>>innerBindingOf: aSymbol > "Answer the binding of some variable resolved in the scope of the > receiver, or one of its superclass > but do not look up binding in receiver's environment. > Use #bindingOf: for looking up the variable binding in a full > scope, > including receiver's environment" > > | binding | > > "First look in classVar dictionary." > binding := self classPool bindingOf: aSymbol. > binding ifNotNil: [^binding]. > > "Next look in shared pools." > self sharedPools do: [:pool | > | aBinding | > aBinding := pool bindingOf: aSymbol. > aBinding ifNotNil: [^aBinding ]. > ]. > > superclass ifNotNil: [ > ^ superclass innerBindingOf: aSymbol. > ]. > ^ nil > > > On 11 January 2013 19:28, Bert Freudenberg <bert(a)freudenbergs.de> wrote: > > bindingOf:environment: > > > > -- > Best regards, > Igor Stasenko. > > -- best, Eliot

[Pharo-project] Fwd: How can the main window title in Squeak and Pharo be set?

>From the history of Squeak and Pharo you can: 1. Squeak.exe (VM for Windows) was always able to set this using the Setting "WindowTitle" in Pharo.ini - see http://squeakvm.org/win32/settings.html This was implemented by Andreas Raab (maintainer of SqueakVM) 2. Later there was the idea in Squeak for a project called "Areithfa Ffenestri" that should add more support code to Squeak to allow access to the native window or open new ones: http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/3862 This is a VM plugin that is not in all VM's and even after years AFAIK not fully implemented on all platforms. If it is available then you can do what Bert Freudenberg suggested here: http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/squeak-dev/2013-January/167766.… Dont know if the Pharo VM maintainers added this plugin too. You have to ask Igor or Esteban. 3. While Squeak tries to stay platform independent and encapsulate platform dependent logic mostly into VM plugins to unify the access there is some other idea in Pharo now: With the growing need to easily access platform logic of the underlying OS or access external libraries written in other languages there is a new FFI plugin which is (since Pharo 2.0) will be included in the standard distribution. This new Foreign Function Interface (FFI) is called NativeBoost and will move more logic into Smalltalk itself. So you dont have to write/compile a plugin. You just need a VM with NativeBoost support (NBCog.exe on Windows) Using native Boost (when in Pharo 2.0) you can (already!) write: NBWin32Window getFocus setWindowText: 'Hello using Native Boost' to change the window title. Internally I just call the Windows Win32-API function "SetWindowTextA" using the window handle. If someone from other platforms implements an NBUnixWindow, NBMacWindow, NBRiscOSWindow, ... we can also implement a common interface class (NBPharoWindow for example). Hope this helps a little bit Bye T.

I asked this on pharo-users but it seems to belong here as it looks like it not implemented or easily accessed in Pharo. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Frank Church <vfclists(a)gmail.com> Date: 10 January 2013 16:40 Subject: How can the main window title in Squeak and Pharo be set?

In Pharo I thought it could be set in the System -> Settings Menu but couldn't find anything there.

[Pharo-project] Dynamic GUI possible?
by J. P. L. MartÃn Jan. 11, 2013

Jan. 11, 2013

Hi, I'm trying to display buttons only if a condition is true on the same window, making the condition is easy but I can get the conditional to run again when a change is done so it displays the row with the buttons, here is the code: open | builder content | builder := UITheme builder. content := builder newColumn: {(builder newRow: {(builder newButtonFor: self action: #listaPrestamos label: 'Prestamos' help: 'Listar Prestamos'). (builder newButtonFor: self action: #listaMateriales label: 'Material' help: 'Listar Material'). (builder newButtonFor: self action: #listaSocios label: 'Socios' help: 'Listar Socios'). (builder newButtonFor: self action: #listaEjemplares label: 'Ejemplares' help: 'Lista de Ejemplares')}). (builder newColumn: {((PluggableMultiColumnListMorph on: self list: #listado selected: #seleccionado changeSelected: #seleccionado: menu: nil wrapSelector: #wrap:at:) extent: 600@600)})}. #listado = Prestamo database ifTrue: [builder newRow: {(builder newButtonFor: self action: #addPrestamo getEnabled: nil label: 'Nuevo Prestamo' help: 'Ingresar nuevo prestamo'). (builder newButtonFor: self action: #devPrestamo getEnabled: #selecciono label: 'Devolver' help: 'Devolver'). (builder newButtonFor: self action: #addEjemplar label: 'Agregar Ejemplar' help: 'Ingresar nuevo ejemplar'). (builder newButtonFor: self action: #addMaterial label: 'Agregar Material' help: 'Ingresar nuevo material'). (builder newButtonFor: self action: #addSocio label: 'Nuevo Socio' help: 'Ingresar nuevo socio'). (builder newButtonFor: self action: #remover getEnabled: #selecciono label: 'Remover' help: 'Ingresar nuevo prestamo'). (builder newButtonFor: self action: #guardar label: 'guardar' help: 'Ingresar nuevo socio')}] ifFalse: (Transcript show: 'Flase'; cr). (content openInWindowLabeled: 'Babel') extent: 600 @ 600. self changed: #listado; changed: #open.
