Hi. At least on Windows with Pharo 1.4a #14168, Croquet Closure Cog VM [CoInterpreter VMMaker-oscog.54] it seems that key down events come out capitalised. This results in only being able to type capitals in the emergency evaluator which won't understand the commands. Fix attached to use key stroke instead of key down. Regards, Gary

[Pharo-project] Fwd: [Smalltalks 2011] --- Tu conferencia / your conference
by Mariano Martinez Peck Oct. 26, 2011

Oct. 26, 2011

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Fundacion FAST <fast(a)smalltalk.comcastbiz.net> Date: Wed, Oct 26, 2011 at 7:13 AM Subject: [Smalltalks 2011] --- Tu conferencia / your conference To: marianopeck(a)gmail.com ==================== ENGLISH Did you know that the Smalltalks Conference will be held again this year? ( http://www.fast.org.ar/**smalltalks2011<http://www.fast.org.ar/smalltalks2011> ) Maybe youâre wondering why you should care about a conference that deals with a language you most certainly donât use for your job, and of whose existence you may not even be aware. But if you take 5' to read this I can tell you that you wonât regret it and that after that you will probably be eager to come to the conference :-) To begin with, this conference isnât only about a programming language, itâs about a technology and a development culture which still has a wide influence on our profession. For example, last year Gilad Bracha came to the conference. Who is Gilad Bracha? Maybe the name rings a bell... well, thatâs because heâs one of the people behind Dart, Googleâs new language ( http://www.dartlang.org/) And what does that have to do with Smalltalk? Precisely: Gilad Bracha was one of the creators of Strongtalk ( http://www.strongtalk.org/) the fastest Samlltalk at that time, which used adaptive compilation, Polimorphic Inline Caching (PIC), optional variable typing, etc. - all of which are being implemented now in Dart. This year one of his closest collaborators will visit us, Vassili Bykov, who implemented the UI of Newspeak, the latest language he has been working on. But Smalltalk has to do not only with whatâs happening with Dart, but with Ruby as well... Have you heard about MagLev? (http://ruby.gemstone.com/) Itâs Rubyâs server for transactional and automatically persistent objects. Guess where that comes from... MagLev is the implementation of Ruby running on GemStone/S, a Transactional and Persistent object server for Smalltalk that is more than 25 years old and that has been bought by VMWare because of its great potential as a transactional memory manager for Java. If you didnât know, read here: http://www.springsource.com/** products/data-management/**gemfire65<http://www.springsource.com/products/data-management/gemfire65> And where does the conference come in here? Martin McClure himself, responsible for MagLev, and GemStone architect Norman Green are coming! The guy in the know! Do you have any doubts about object bases? Now you know where the answers are. But maybe youâre not interested in any if this... perhaps the way programming languages work or how they are implemented is not your scene, you just make web applications and only want the infrastructure to scale, to be quick at persisting information etc. In that case we also have a place for you. Have you heard of GLASS? (http://seaside.gemstone.com/) Itâs the implementation of Seaside, a dynamic framework based on continuations for web applications using GemStone! (http://www.seaside.st/) Thatâs to say, you develop a web application just like a desktop application, and you get transactionality and persistence at the object level, for free... and whatâs better, without relational databases!!! Yes!!!! No more hibernating, no more SQL, no more tables, only objects! It may sound crazy, you may think it doesnât make sanse... my advice is, donât draw any conclusions until you come and hear Dale Heinrichs, who is in charge of this product and who will tell us all the details and explain how it is impacting web developments. Not convinced yet? OK, let me try just a bit more... Do you know Alan Kay? Turing award, âfather of the personal computerâ, creator of Smalltalk? ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/**Alan_Kay<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Kay>) No, heâs not coming - yet. But Ian Piumarta and Kim Rose are, two of his closest collaborators in the projects heâs currently working on at his foundation dedicated to minimal programming languages such as OMeta and learning environments like SqueakLand (http://www.vpri.org/index.**html<http://www.vpri.org/index.html>). Are you interested in the use of computers for teaching? You can ask Kim. Would you like to know how a good VM is implemented? Ian will be right there to tell you. If youâre still reading and havenât scrolled down to the bottom of the page it means I havenât convinced you yet... hmmm, letâs see what you say about this: MOOSE (http://www.moosetechnology.**org<http://www.moosetechnology.org>), a platform for analyzing your programs - no matter if they are written in Java, C++, C# or Smalltalk, you can visualize your systemâs design, not by using those little UML diagrams but by means of graphics specially designed to let you spot at a glance some bugs that may have crept in. Its developer, Tudor Girba, will be there to explain how it works, how it was developed and what you can do with it, because itâs free! Maybe youâre already tired of reading. I donât blame, but donât you blame me either! Itâs a great conference! You just canât miss it! Because this is not all... if you want to find out more about the main Smalltalk development environments, both open source and commercial, you will have the chance to talk to Markus Denker from Pharo (http://www.pharo-project.org/**home<http://www.pharo-project.org/home>) and John OâKeefe, architect of VASmalltalk (http://www.instantiations.**com/<http://www.instantiations.com/> ). A little too much stuff that is industry-oriented? And what about research, do they keep researching on Smalltalk? Well, let me tell you that this will be the second year the conference has a section devoted entirely to research, with an enviable review committee and publication in journals. This way, if youâre doing research on objects and need to present your work at a widely recognized conference, Smalltalks is your place. And I wouldnât like to forget the university... Smalltalk is still the language used to for teaching objects at almost every university, instead of a merely commercial language. But I havenât told you yet about the most important part of this, besides all these people that will be visiting us and with whom we can share our experiences: The Argentine Smalltalk community, one of the most important worldwide concerning this technology. This community has been putting their best efforts during the last five years to organize these conferences, and the last three years some of its members have won the 1st and the 3rd place at the ESUG Technology Award, an international award for the best developments in Smalltalk! And the best part of it is that the winners are from different universities - the UBA, the UAI and the UTN! The community does not stop there. Did you know that there is an Argentine Smalltalk? A Smalltalk developed by an Argentinian and which is being used all over the world? Itâs called CUIS and it was developed by Juan Vuletich ( http://www.jvuletich.org/**Cuis/Index.html<http://www.jvuletich.org/Cuis/Index.html>), who is also working on the Morphic 3.0 project, and worked together with Alan Kay developing Squeak. Or did you know that the most widely used layer open source for communicating with relational databases from Pharo or Squeak was developed by an Argentinian too? Or that Fuel, the open source object serialization framework, was also created by an Argentinian? Are you familiar with these names - Mariano Martinez Peck, Guillermo Polito, MartÃn Dias, Esteban Lorenzano, and others? They are also part of our community and a constant reminder of the excellent technical quality we have in our country. Another Argentinian is the architect of the fastest Smalltalk VM in existence, that of VisualWorks (http://www.cincomsmalltalk.** com/main/products/visualworks/<http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/main/products/visualworks/> **), and you can ask him how he was able to speed up the GC about 70% during the last year, and you will have the chance to listen to another Argentinian who has been a Smalltalker for more than 20 years... Can you imagine what your productivity would be if you had been working for 20+ years on the same language? On a language that keeps being productive to our profession? These people are part of this great community and will also be at this wonderful meeting... which is important not only for the people who are coming, but also for those that are already here! I hope Iâve been able to convince you. I hope youâve realized that this is not a conference about a programming language, but about a community of developers who want to share with you all they know, and also learn from you. If you want to help this community to keep growing, if you want this to be not just a conference of developers but also for developers, sign up here: http://www.fast.org.ar/**smalltalks2011<http://www.fast.org.ar/smalltalks2011> Itâs free, and I can grant you that you wonât regret it. You can see the list of talks at: http://www.fast.org.ar/**smalltalks2011/talks<http://www.fast.org.ar/smalltalks2011/talks> This year it takes place on November 3-5, at the University of Quilmes. And it wonât be restricted to the world of objects: this year we will also have a talk on objects by Fidel (Pablo E. MartÃnez LÃ³pez), one of the leading Argentinians in the field of Functional Programming, a community that shares the conviction that we are all, after all, programmers! See the response it is already getting: http://vimeo.com/30529851 Weâll be waiting for you! FAST http://www.fast.org.ar ==================== SPANISH Â¿Te enteraste que este aÃ±o se hace nuevamente el congreso Smalltalks? ( http://www.fast.org.ar/**smalltalks2011<http://www.fast.org.ar/smalltalks2011> ) Por ahÃ te estÃ¡s preguntando quÃ© puede tener de interesante un congreso sobre un lenguaje que seguro no usas para trabajar y que por ahÃ no conoces, pero si tenÃ©s 5 minutos, lee este mail, te puedo asegurar que no te vas a arrepentir y seguramente querrÃ¡s venir al congreso :-) Para empezar, este congreso no es Ãºnicamente sobre un lenguaje de programaciÃ³n sino sobre una tecnologÃa y cultura de desarrollo que aÃºn sigue influenciando fuertemente nuestra profesiÃ³n. Por ejemplo, el aÃ±o pasado vino a esta conferencia Gilad Bracha. Â¿QuiÃ©n es Gilad Bracha?, por ahÃ te suena el nombre... bueno, te suena porque es uno de los que estÃ¡ detrÃ¡s de desarrollo de Dart, el nuevo lenguaje de Google (http://www.dartlang.org/) Â¿Y quÃ© tiene que ver Smalltalk? Justamente Gilad Bracha fue uno de los desarrolladores de Strongtalk (http://www.strongtalk.org/) el Smalltalk mÃ¡s rÃ¡pido en su Ã©poca, que utiliza compilaciÃ³n adaptiva, Polimorphic Inline Caching (PIC), tipado de variables opcional, etc. Todas soluciones que ahora se estÃ¡n implementando en Dart. Este aÃ±o nos visita uno de sus mÃ¡s Ãntimos colaboradores, Vassili Bykov, implementador del UI de Newspeak, el Ãºltimo lenguaje en el que estaba trabajando. Pero no solo Smalltalk tiene algo que ver en lo que estÃ¡ sucediendo con Dart, sino tambiÃ©n en Ruby... Â¿escuchaste hablar de MagLev? ( http://ruby.gemstone.com/) Es el servidor de objetos transaccionales y automÃ¡ticamente persistibles para Ruby, Â¿adivinÃ¡ de dÃ³nde viene? MagLev es la implementaciÃ³n de Ruby corriendo sobre GemStone/S, un servidor de objetos transaccionales y persistibles para Smalltalk que tiene mÃ¡s de 25 aÃ±os y que ahora VMWare comprÃ³ por su gran potencial y soluciÃ³n como administrador de memoria transaccional para Java, si no lo sabÃas mirÃ¡ http://www.springsource.com/**products/data-management/**gemfire65<http://www.springsource.com/products/data-management/gemfire65>Â¿QuÃ© tiene que ver con el congreso? que justamente viene al mismo Martin McClure, responsable de MagLev y Norman Green, arquitecto de GemStone! o sea, el que tiene la papa!! Â¿TenÃ©s dudas sobre las bases de objetos? ya sabÃ©s donde podÃ©s obtener las respuestas. Pero por ahÃ a vos no te interesa nada de esto... por ahÃ cÃ³mo funcionan los lenguajes de programaciÃ³n o cÃ³mo estÃ¡n implementados no es lo tuyo, vos haces aplicaciones web y solo necesitÃ¡s que la infraestructura escale, persista informaciÃ³n rÃ¡pido, etc. Si ese es tu interÃ©s, tenemos un lugarcito para vos tambiÃ©n. Â¿Escuchaste hablar de GLASS? (http://seaside.gemstone.com/) Es la implementaciÃ³n de Seaside, un framework dinÃ¡mico basado en continuations para aplicaciones web usando GemStone! (http://www.seaside.st/) O sea, desarrollas una aplicaciÃ³n web como si fuese una aplicaciÃ³n desktop y tenÃ©s gratis la transaccionabilidad y persistencia a nivel objetos... y lo que es mejor, sin base de datos relacionales!!! Si!!!!, no mÃ¡s hibernate, no mÃ¡s SQL, no mÃ¡s tablas, solo objetos!.... Por ahÃ te parece una locura, por ahÃ te parece que no tiene sentido... te aconsejo que no saques ninguna conclusiÃ³n y no dejes de venir a escuchar a Dale Heinrichs, el encargado de este producto quien nos contarÃ¡ todos los detalles del mismo y cÃ³mo influye en los desarrollos web. Â¿AÃºn no te convencÃ? ok... dejame intentar un poquito mÃ¡s... Â¿Conoces a Alan Kay? Â¿Turing award, "padre de la computadora personal", creador de Smalltalk? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/**Alan_Kay<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Kay>) No, no, no viene Ã©l, todavÃa :-),pero vienen Ian Piumarta y Kim Rose, dos de los mÃ¡s Ãntimos colaboradores de Alan Kay en los proyectos que estÃ¡n llevando adelante en su fundaciÃ³n sobre lenguajes de programaciÃ³n mÃnimos como OMeta y ambientes de enseÃ±anza como SqueakLand. ( http://www.vpri.org/index.**html <http://www.vpri.org/index.html>). Â¿Te interesa saber cÃ³mo usar la computadora para enseÃ±ar? Le vas a poder preguntar a Kim. Te interesa saber cÃ³mo implementar una buena VM, lo vas a tener a Ian cerquita para conversar. Si aÃºn estÃ¡s leyendo y no fuiste al final de la pÃ¡gina significa que aÃºn no te convencÃ... hmmm, a ver quÃ© te parece esto: MOOSE ( http://www.moosetechnology.**org <http://www.moosetechnology.org>), una plataforma para hacer anÃ¡lisis de tus programas, no importa si estÃ¡n escritos en Java, C++, C# o Smalltalk, te permite ver visualmente el diseÃ±o de tu sistema no usando esos diagramitas simples de UML sino por medio de grÃ¡ficos especialmente preparados para reconocer rÃ¡pidamente algunos errorcitos que por ahÃ tiene tu sistema :-). Tudor Girba, desarrollador de esta plataforma vendrÃ¡ a comentarnos cÃ³mo funciona, cÃ³mo estÃ¡ desarrollada y quÃ© podÃ©s hacer con ella puesto que ademÃ¡s es gratis! Por ahÃ ya estÃ¡s aburrido de leer tanto, no te culpo y tampoco me culpes a mi! es un congreso excelente! no te lo podÃ©s perder!, puesto que la cosa no termina acÃ¡... si te interesa saber sobre los principales ambientes de desarrollo en Smalltalk tanto opensource como comerciales, tendrÃ¡s la oportunidad de conversar con Markus Denker de Pharo ( http://www.pharo-project.org/**home)y<http://www.pharo-project.org/home%29y>John O'Keefe, arquitecto de VASmalltalk ( http://www.instantiations.**com/ <http://www.instantiations.com/>) Â¿Muchos temas relacionados con la industria no? Â¿y quÃ© hay acerca de investigaciÃ³n, aÃºn se investiga algo en con Smalltalk? Te comento que este es el segundo aÃ±o consecutivo que el congreso tiene una secciÃ³n completamente dedicada a la investigaciÃ³n, con un comitÃ© evaluador envidiable y con publicaciones en journals. Por lo tanto, si te interesa hacer investigaciÃ³n con objetos y necesitas que tus publicaciones sean en congresos reconocidos, te comento que Smalltalks es uno de ellos. Y no me quiero olvidar de la docencia universitaria... Smalltalk sigue siendo el lenguaje utilizado para enseÃ±ar objetos en casi todas las universidades y no para enseÃ±ar meramente un lenguaje de programaciÃ³n comercial. Y a pesar de todo esto, de toda esta gente que nos va a visitar y con quienes podremos compartir su experiencia y la nuestra, falta lo mÃ¡s importante: La comunidad argentina de Smalltalk, una de las principales comunidades en el mundo de esta tecnologÃa. Es esta comunidad que hace 5 aÃ±os estÃ¡ organizando este congreso a todo pulmÃ³n y hace 3 aÃ±os viene ganando de manera consecutiva el primer y tercer puesto del "Esug Technology Award", premio a los mejores desarrollos hechos en Smalltalk a nivel mundial! y lo mÃ¡s interesante es que los ganadores son de distintas universidad de nuestro paÃs como la UBA, la UAI y la UTN! Y la comunidad no se limita a eso... Â¿sabÃ©s que hay un Smalltalk argentino? Â¿un Smalltalk desarrollado por un argentino y utilizado a nivel mundial? se llama Cuis y su desarrollador Juan Vuletich (http://www.jvuletich.org/** Cuis/Index.html <http://www.jvuletich.org/Cuis/Index.html>), quien ademÃ¡s estÃ¡ llevando adelante el desarrollo de Morphic 3.0 y trabajÃ³ junto a Alan Kay desarrollando Squeak. Â¿O sabÃas que el layer open source para comunicarse con base de datos relacionales desde Pharo o Squeak mÃ¡s usado tambiÃ©n fue desarrollado por argentinos? o que el framework de serializaciÃ³n de objetos opensource Fuel tambiÃ©n fue desarrollado por un argentino? Te suenan Mariano Martinez Peck, Guillermo Polito, MartÃn Dias, Esteban Lorenzano entre otros?, ellos son parte de nuestra comunidad y nos recuerdan constantemente la muy buena capacidad tÃ©cnica que tenemos en nuestro paÃs. TambiÃ©n es argentino el arquitecto de la VM de Smalltalk mÃ¡s rÃ¡pida que hay, la de VisualWorks (http://www.cincomsmalltalk.** com/main/products/visualworks/<http://www.cincomsmalltalk.com/main/products/visualworks/> **) y le podÃ©s preguntar cÃ³mo hizo para acelerar hasta cerca de un 70% el GC en el Ãºltimo aÃ±o, y vas a poder escuchar una charla de un argentino que es smalltalkero hace mÃ¡s de 20 aÃ±os... Â¿te imaginÃ¡s cÃ³mo serÃa tu productividad si estuvieras trabajando hace mÃ¡s de 20 aÃ±os en el mismo lenguaje? Â¿un lenguaje que ademÃ¡s sigue dando mucho a nuestra profesiÃ³n?... Esta gente es parte de esta gran comunidad y tambiÃ©n participarÃ¡n de este maravilloso evento.... este congreso no es solo importante por la gente que viene sino por la gente que ya estÃ¡! Espero haberte convencido, espero que te hayas dado cuenta que este congreso no es acerca de un lenguaje de programaciÃ³n sino de una comunidad de desarrolladores que quiere compartir con vos lo que conoce y tambiÃ©n aprender de vos. Si querÃ©s ayudar a que esta comunidad siga creciendo, si querÃ©s ayudar a que este congreso siga siendo un congreso de desarrolladores y para desarrolladores, anotate acÃ¡: http://www.fast.org.ar/**smalltalks2011<http://www.fast.org.ar/smalltalks2011>Es gratis y te puedo asegurar que no te vas a arrepentir.

The thing is that there are indefinit unknown problems. If we wait a week, for sure someone finds another. "Release" does not mean "Bug free", because "bug free" does not exist. (and it is even harder in a system with a huge, historical code base and an undefined feature set...

[Pharo-project] Correct usage of exception handlers with ensure and ifCurtailed
by John Toohey Oct. 25, 2011

Oct. 25, 2011

Hi, I have an issue with WAListenerAdapter throwing ConnectionTimeOut and ConnectionClosed exceptions in a headless image, which causes the VM to abort. These "exceptions" are just socket timeouts, and can be ignored. The methods that I believe is the correct place to handle these is coded as follows :- waitForConnection: aSocket | socket stream | socket := aSocket waitForAcceptFor: 10. socket isNil ifTrue: [ ^ self ]. stream := SocketStream on: socket. [ [ [ self process: stream ] ensure: [ stream close ] ] ifCurtailed: [ socket destroy ] ] forkAt: Processor userBackgroundPriority I've changed the code so it looks like this :- waitForConnection: aSocket | socket stream | socket := aSocket waitForAcceptFor: 10. socket isNil ifTrue: [ ^ self ]. stream := SocketStream on: socket. [ [ [ [self process: stream ] on: NetworkError do:[:ex| ^self]] ensure: [ stream close ] ] ifCurtailed: [ socket destroy ] ] forkAt: Processor userBackgroundPriority As the errors are intermittent and only occur on my production server, I wonder is someone can look at the code, and tell me if I've added the #on:do: block correctly. Thanks. -- ~JT

Note though that if the intent is to hardcode the hash (and presumably the salt as well) in the code it kinda defeats the purpose of the salt. Salt doesn't need to be secret, but it should be sufficiently unpredictable, so that the attacker cannot pre-compute the hashes easily. If the salt is fixed and well known, then it doesn't help. I guess my main point is that hardcoding the password in any shape or form is nearly useless, you may as well not bother. What is the goal ? What are you trying to protect against ? Answers to these questions should guide you to a solution. Once you pick a solution you should then think about how it fails and what can you do when it happens (What will you do when your hardcoded password becomes compromised ?). False security is often worse than no security. HTH, Martin

[Pharo-project] How to encrypt a password?
by Mariano Martinez Peck Oct. 25, 2011

Oct. 25, 2011

Hi guys. I need to be able to store a password as part of a method. Say I need to be able to do 'thisIsMyPassword' encrypted -> 'dasdafjewrhjk34wh5435345345345ewfsfs' Then I can write the method: MyClass >> myPassword ^ 'dasdafjewrhjk34wh5435345345345ewfsfs' decrypted It should have a kind of public key somehow so that someone cannot easily decrypt it. How can I do that in Pharo? I am totally newbie with all this stuff. Thanks, -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com

[Pharo-project] Jenkis small delay possible?
by Mariano Martinez Peck Oct. 25, 2011

Oct. 25, 2011

Marcus, the problem is that jenkis is working VERY well ;) Now, really, the thing is that I have a lot of packages, and when I change in several of them, when I commit the first package, Jenkis automatically fires up a build. That happens even before I can commit the rest of the packages. Hence...the build become unstabe, and just in the next build it becomes stable again... So...I was wondering, maybe we can put kind of delay ? so that Jenkis does not trigger a build immediatly, but say, after 5 minutes? (that gives me time to commit all packages) Thanks -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com
