[Pharo-project] The SmalltalkHub demo is online!
by Nicolas Petton Dec. 2, 2011

Dec. 2, 2011

Hi guys, I'm glad to tell you that the demo of SmalltalkHub is online. http://www.smalltalkhub.com Note that this is a demo only (all projects will be deleted at some point). You can follow the SmalltalkHub project here: http://smalltalkhub.com/user/NicolasPetton/SmalltalkHub You can report bugs you encounter on the issue tracker there. This demo is running on Pharo (the next one will be on GemStone). The changelog is quite big, but here's some important changes: - The clone feature has been removed in favor of an inbox per project. (later the inbox repository url will be visible in the project overview) - RSS feeds for project timelines and user activity - Persistency is now pluggable (the current demo uses Fuel to serialize the repository) - New help system - New chronological view of packages - More useful commit view - The issue tracker has received some love some bugs has been fixed - new statistics view - Email notifications - And of course, many bug and UX fixes Some features that will appear soon (in random order): - Scripting engine to perform actions on projects - A diff browser - the ability to accept/decline packages committed to the inbox, and move/delete packages/versions. Cheers, Nicolas

[Pharo-project] SystemNavigation vs. SystemOrganizer
by Sean P. DeNigris Dec. 2, 2011

Dec. 2, 2011

SystemNavigation default. -> an object that let's you navigate the current system SystemOrganizer default. -> ??? To get what I would expect from above, it seems I need to access the global SystemOrganization. Does anyone else find this confusing?

[Pharo-project] Test Categories
by Sean P. DeNigris Dec. 2, 2011

Dec. 2, 2011

There's Tests-System - tests for various sub-categories of System Tests-SystemSupport - notice no second dash Tests-Polymorph-Widgets - with second dash I was going to change the first two to be like the last one (which is most like the category under test). But I know there are weird dash issues because of Monticello, so I wanted to ask first...

Re: [Pharo-project] Athens work in progress: couple screenshots
by Fernando Olivero Dec. 2, 2011

I've implied using meta-programming,in order to have a uniform protocol in the abstract Canvas. AthensCanvas>>transformDescribedBy: aName self perform: ( aName , 'Transform' ) asSymbol . But i see that your approach is simpler, there's no need for a uniform protocol because when you are using a particular AthensCanvas you are fully aware of that! Regarding the build, after a lonnnngg series of errors, i also managed to build universal binaries of Cairo, using MacPorts (brew just doesn't ease the task of creating 32 bit libraries). sudo port cairo +universal, worked for me, taking at least 30 min to build. ATTENTION: Before entering the port cairo install command, I've had to manually install appleGcc4.2, found @ [1] (file name gcc-42-5666.3-darwin11.pkg. Given that i have Lion, XCode4.2, and if you just allow macports to build appleGcc4.2, it will run a process that consumes resources and finally stalls your computer! I've attached a screen shot that may help somebody else, for setting up the examples. Using NativeBoost Cog VM for Mac, downloadable from NativeBoost site or Jenkins. Great work Javier, and Igor! I'm looking forward to implement a Text editor using Cairo+Pango + "my new morphic".

Re: [Pharo-project] [Seaside] SqueakSource

Hi Sebastian, First, squeaksource is free and it is hosted for free, too (as the main page says, squeaksource.com is hosted free of charge by the Software Composition Group, University of Bern). Second, it is old: it dates from 2004: http://www.squeaksource.com/ss.html This was a great piece of infrastructure built by some cool guys, but now it shows its age: http://www.squeaksource.com/ss.html Please do not blame neither the authors, nor the current people that are still trying to keep it alive: basically, a couple of brave PhD students that maintain the infrastructure (not the code) in their spare time (namely, Jorge Ressia and Fabrizio Perin). There is at least one other option that should be more stable: http://ss3.gemstone.com/ And of course, in the meantime, we are all waiting for: http://www.smalltalkhub.com/ So, all in all, please refrain from these kinds of remarks.

Hi guys We are writing some articles on the work of veronica to support merging activities. We need your input great smalltalk community :) What are the questions that you ask yourselves when you are/want to merge some code in your project? We would like to do a compilation of questions and also evaluate how the solution of veronica solves them or part of them. Here are some typical questions we asked ourselves. - What other changes did this change require? - Can I integrate this change right now? - How large it is? - Who made it? - Is it still valid (when I'm working on an old change)? - Is this change impacted by a change that happened in another branch of my software? Stef D., Andy K. and Veronica U.
