Hi I was reading a book on risk management :) and I loved the quote: Progresser c'est changer d'erreurs. Making progress is changing of errors. Stef

[Pharo-project] Reference temporary variable of method ( or other solution )
by Dario Trussardi July 28, 2011

July 28, 2011

Hi, i work with Pharo and GLASS. My question is relative to reference method variable define in the method. If i have methodA: methodA | var1 | var1 := 'this is an string'. self methodB. and methodB: methodB | a b c | a := 'a'. ......... i can now at this step reference the var1 defined in methodA ? I think it's in the stack or i wrong ? It's no elegant do it ? a need call self methodB: var1 The question is because i have some class for manage database and i will don't add istances variable to manage the operations on it. With this reference i can solve the problem without pass variables from some methods to other methods. If i found in the stack the specific reference i can manage some operations based on it. Any other indications to solve this problematic ? Thanks, Dario

[Pharo-project] [ANN] Customized Cog Win32 for Pharo 1.3 (based on Cog r2474)
by Torsten Bergmann July 28, 2011

July 28, 2011

>I personally am completely confused about VMs. Now we have even one more :-) No - we do not have one more, just an updated rebranded version as I did in the past to make it more Pharo like. On Win32 it goes like this: =========================== A) Andreas provided the official Squeak VM on http://squeakvm.org/win32/ Last official one is 4.1.1, I just gave it a new pharo icon ("lighthouse"), name and file ressource so one can see the VM version directly in Explorer. => unfortunately this is very outdated from 2010, no activity/response on Andreas side and no new Win32 Squeak VM maintainer stepped up AFAIK Even when outdated we still use this as the standard VM in the Win32 Installer (see Pharo1.2), I will reuse this standard VM for 1.3 too. B) Eliot provides the fast Cog VM on http://www.mirandabanda.org/files/Cog/VM/ Last SVN revision is VM.r2474, again anything I do is building the VM from subversion with another icon ("lighthouse with gear"), name and a file ressource so one can see the VM version directly in Explorer. This Cog VM is also in the Win32 Pharo 1.2/upcoming 1.3 installer so Win users can profit from Eliots work. After using the Win32-Installer one can (by using the different icon "lighthouse" or "lighthouse with gear") start the appropriate engine to run his image. I hope that we can get a better situation as soon as - the standard VM "A" is built right from the newest VMMaker - for "B" (the Cog VM) is either built from VMMaker or from Eliots SVN repo Bye T. -- NEU: FreePhone - 0ct/min Handyspartarif mit Geld-zurÃ¼ck-Garantie!

Hi Marcus, I used the most recent Cog revision r2474 from Eliot and again customized/labeled/branded it for Pharo (icon, file resource with version/revision) The end result is available at: https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/28819/CogWin32Rev2474.zip I will use this VM in the next Win32 installer as soon as Pharo 1.3 is ready. Feel free to use it in the Pharo 1.3 one click ZIP as well. Side note: We should automate this VM customization as well as the installer building using the Win-Slave for the CI-Server in the (hopefully near) future.
