[Pharo-project] Spec 1.1 in Pharo 1.4
by Sean P. DeNigris Aug. 6, 2012

Aug. 6, 2012

I updated my to Spec 1.1 with: Gofer new url: 'http://ss3.gemstone.com/ss/Spec'; package: 'ConfigurationOfSpec'; load. ((Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfSpec) project stableVersion) load: 'full'. And I'm getting a weird error [1]. The weird part is that if I go to Array>>sorted: in the call chain, the argument value is "false", but if I go one back and inspectIt "sortingBlockHolder contents", I get [ :a :b | true ] Image: Pharo1.4 [Latest update: #14453] False(Object)>>doesNotUnderstand: #value:value: Receiver: false Arguments and temporary variables: aMessage: value: a JenkinsJob value: a JenkinsJob exception: MessageNotUnderstood: False>>value:value: resumeValue: nil Receiver's instance variables: false Array(ArrayedCollection)>>mergeFirst:middle:last:into:by: Receiver: an Array(a JenkinsJob a JenkinsJob a JenkinsJob a JenkinsJob a JenkinsJob a JenkinsJob a J...etc...

[Pharo-project] OComplection
by Camillo Bruni Aug. 6, 2012

Aug. 6, 2012

the more time I spend with OCompletion the more I think it's the wrong model: NECompletion provides in many cases way better / quicker results NOCompletion does tons of magic to increase the chances of a correct hit, neglecting - self sends - super sends - ClassSends which is basically the main source for getting nice input... I think NOCompletion should be removed. The only thing that might maintain is a Database which will give back a date for a given selector so we can sort them accordingly. But IMO that can be solved muuuuch easier. Things against NOCompletion: - not documentation whatsoever (no class comments no comments no categories... nada) - totally breaks type completion (self sends usw...) - duplication of NECompletion... Since I don't see anybody maintaining this dead body we should remove it from the system!

[Pharo-project] interesting incompatibility between squeak 4.3 and Pharo 1.4
by Lawson English Aug. 6, 2012

Aug. 6, 2012

I've been playing with NativeBoost so a lot of my development time has been in Pharo. I was having problems with simple syntax so I decided to fileout my class and test it in the latest squeak. A problem: class AlphaImage doesn't exist in squeak, so the filein process ended up defining my class to be a subclass of ProtoObject... OK, sorta makes sense: don't guess, just give the lowest possible point in the hierarchy. Even so, the first time I tried to create an instance of the class, I recived debugging messages complaining about how the object didn't understand the message newForm:, as you might expect... then the debugger itself kept on popping up the same error message as I tried to enter the debugger window. Working as intended? Anyway, just an interesting gotcha when programming in Pharo and porting back to squeak.

Not able to display it on small device. Why *.mov format and not something easily accessible like putting it on youtube, vimeo, ...? Thx T.

[Pharo-project] Differential and Integral calculus in Pharo?
by Clara Allende Aug. 6, 2012

Aug. 6, 2012

Hi guys, after having exhausting four months of Physics lessons, I decided that would be fun to write a program to deal with Electricity problems :) (Yeah, I'm not a normal person :P) So, I need to make differential and integral calculus, are there any libraries to do so? Or any place that I can take a look at? Thanks in advance! Cheers

[Pharo-project] ScriptManager MNU #yellowButtonMenu
by Torsten Bergmann Aug. 5, 2012

Aug. 5, 2012

It works without a problem in Pharo 2.0. In Pharo 1.4. it worked a month ago - but with the new summer release of Pharo the "ParagraphEditor" is now thrown out and a switch to "SmalltalkEditor" is required. I fixed it. So if you download a new Pharo 1.4 from the homepage then try the "ConfigurationOfScriptManager-tbn.19" which is available from the config browser. Lesson learned: when we provide a new update on an already existing Pharo version (like the summer update release for 1.4 then we should check for compatibility or check all configs for this version) Bye T.

[Pharo-project] Monticello changes not working
by Mariano Martinez Peck Aug. 5, 2012

Aug. 5, 2012

Hi guys. I am the only one that noticies that "Changes" is showing whatever but the correct changes? I think this is a stop-the-world-issue because I cannot commit anything because I cannot really see and make sure of what I changed. You should not merge ether if you cannot clearly see what has been changed. thanks -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com
