The UI building process is far behind in Pharo and squeak. We are working on improving this. This is an old draft of the system. What we did so far was to build some experiences and learn from them. Now we are on the edge of getting it right. We want to - define widgets - reuse them and their logic - compose them - build a UI Placer tools (later this year) Benjamin started to rewrite most of the tools using this approach. For example the new dual change sorter based on spec is around 9 simple methods binding together two simple change sorter. We will start now an experience with people not knowing the system to see if they can build simple UI such as Monticello browser. And we will refine the approach.

[Pharo-project] One more project proposal for GSoC
by Dennis Schetinin April 2, 2012

April 2, 2012

Rustem Kkubbatov (http://gsoc2012.esug.org/rustem-khubbatov) another student I mentor in Tver State University, decided to try his luck with a project for GSoC. The problem is he can't currently choose a better approach. The original idea is to build a two-tier Human-Machine Interface (HMI) system (which can be used in a wide range of projects) with Pharo image as back-end (where a model lives) and Amber-based client as a front-end. But this thing seems to be "a little bit" too large for GSoC, isn't it? An alternative task could be to build a framework for message exchanging between Pharo and Amber. I could be the first mentor for a project based on original idea, or the second/first (depending on if anyone interested) for communication framework. Any ideas and advices are welcome (ASAP). Thank you in advance. Best regards, Dennis Schetinin

Re: [Pharo-project] PluggableTextMorph changed behavior

> > PS: note that we are not waiting for Spoon. We are building our system and slowly but steadily > arriving there. We are working step by step on making the system more modular and easier to change. > We hope to have a bootstrap soon. That said, I of course like Spoon... lots of good ideas and it *is* interesting. And in additon, there was lots of progress recently! I just have a bit of an aversion from 10 years of Squeak to a one line answer like we saw... "X will solve this", when X is something somehow in the future that requires effort not just to get a community to really absorb and integrate, but especially really replace the existing infrastructure in practice. And especially I am sceptical when it's a one person project (regardless how great that person is or how I respect him/her). There where a lot of different X over the years... This was especially apparent in Squeak at the point when the reality against these grandiose "X will solve everything" was that it was in practice impossible for the community to even change a typo in a comment... This does say nothing about the Xses... they where great. The people driving the Xses: very good, some geniuses even. That's why everyone was so excited. But what came out: nothing. In the end the story of Squeak is amazing in how little was accomplished considering the amount of talent, founding, time and energy. And I don't completely understand why even today.

[Pharo-project] PluggableTextMorph changed behavior
by Hilaire Fernandes April 1, 2012

April 1, 2012

Hello, As far as PluggableTextMorph can be understandable, I used the code bellow to 'manipulate' text field the user can edit. The code bellow was working recently: morph := PluggableTextMorph on: builder text: #title accept: #title:. morph acceptTextInModel. morph color: Color white; acceptOnCR: true; hResizing: #spaceFill; height: 16; hideScrollBarsIndefinitely. When user edit text, the model (builder) was updated. Now not anymore with recent 1.4. What's wrong? Hilaire -- Dr. Geo -- http://www.drgeo.eu
