Hi folks. I am glad to announce the Pharo 1.1 RC3. It has not too much changes in compare to RC2. The main change is the menu structure. I also updated to newest version of external packages.

[Pharo-project] [Last Call] [JOB] Pharo Engineer at INRIA
by Marcus Denker July 9, 2010

July 9, 2010

[REPOST] Please note: DEADLINE 15 July* INRIA RMoD is looking for a full-time engineer for helping with Pharo development. As researchers, we need a really great system to explore new ideas with. The job of the engineer is to help us by improving the infrastructure we use for our work. What this of course means is that it's kind of a cool job: work in a research lab, but no paper writing, no teaching, no administration. In addition: -> live in France (one hour from Paris, 1h20 from London, 35 min from Brussels) -> try a lot of good beers (our office is just 10km from the border to Belgium) -> enjoy french food -> code all the day in Smalltalk and a bit of C >From what the DHR services told us, the salary will depend on years of expertise and diplomas. We can think that 2700 Euros (before final taxes) should be a good working number for a candidate of the experience we are looking for. In France the employer pays already social security and pension. So the salary already includes lots (and lots) of deductions compared to e.g. a german brutto salary. Holidays: 45 days per year (plus standard bank-holidays). Lille is an active city but not expensive (lots of students...), centrally located, with good connections by train to everywhere (including Paris CDG and Brussels airports). The job will be to continue making Pharo better: - better tools - better network support - better compiler infrastructure - improve the VM - help with day-to-day bug fixing and constant improvement Therefore we are looking for a candidate with some years of Smalltalk (possible Pharo/Squeak) background. Duration: 30 months Starting date: October 2010 Location: Lille (no remote job possible) Official Job Description and Application via the INRIA website http://bit.ly/9z42MY Deadline: 15 July 2010 Web-Post of this call: http://rmod.lille.inria.fr/web/pier/blog/2010-06-07 More about: - RMoD: http://rmod.lille.inria.fr - INRIA Lille: http://www.inria.fr/lille/ - INRIA in General: http://www.inria.fr - Engineers at INRIA: http://bit.ly/cLe6q4 - Pharo: http://pharo-project.org - Lille: - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lille - http://www.mairie-lille.fr/en - http://wikitravel.org/en/Lille Do not hesitate to contact us for more information. -- Marcus Denker -- http://www.marcusdenker.de INRIA Lille -- Nord Europe.

[Pharo-project] FFI and global structs (I think)
by Schwab,Wilhelm K July 9, 2010

July 9, 2010

Andreas, I am using FFI to make calls into the Gnu Scientific Library and am having problems that I do not understand. They provide "types" for various algorithms/functions/etc. which appear to be global structs. Suppose I want to use Haar wavelets; then I have interest in what I believe is a struct exported as gls_wavelet_haar. My simple-minded understanding of such things is that "the name is address" and that dlsym()/GetProcAddress() should provide a void pointer to the correct place in memory. My attempts at doing that have ended badly. If I instead export a function of my own (from a library that links to GSL), something like gls_wavelet_type* WaveletHaar() { return gsl_wavelet_haar; } and call it something like waveletTypeHaar < cdecl: GslWaveletType* WaveletHaar()> then all is well. If I use GslWaveletType fromHandle: with an address from dlsym(), ugliness (segment fault) follows. Am I missing something really fundamental, or should #fromHandle: be able to do the job? Bill

[Pharo-project] Issues with ObjectiveCPlugin.bundle 1.1.3
by John M McIntosh July 9, 2010

July 9, 2010

Well *cough*, I might have written a couple of dozen tests to check the Objective-C bridge, but obviously if I don't run them, why something broken creeps in. It seems that I managed to make a code change that broke how the unsigned short data is fetched from a objective-c message send. As I was working on the Cog Stack VM for the iPhone today I tripped over the fact that I had somehow managed not to run the test suite. Obviously if I had it would have told me something was busted. I've fixed this and shortly I'll look at building ObjectCPlugin.bundle 1.1.4 and Mac Carbon VM 5.7b2 People who have built their own plugin should fire up VMMaker and rebuild a copy from the latest SqueakSource update -- =========================================================================== John M.

[Pharo-project] Pharocasts: live testing
by laurent laffont July 8, 2010

July 8, 2010

Hi, Unit tests represents the security belt of software development. But having a security belt doesn't mean it's always fastened. You take a look at a piece code, have fun hacking it, submit the new code without checking all tests are green... it's easy to forgot there's tests here. Autotest automatically runs tests for you. Test Driven Development ensures test exhaustivity, reflexion on design and so on. You stop and run tests very often to check the health of your code. In your car you don't stop driving, hands off the wheel in order to check the speed. Autotest provides a real time dashboard so you don't stop coding. Testing is always here. Now you can drive. http://pharocasts.blogspot.com/2010/07/live-testing-with-autotest.html Cheers, Laurent Laffont http://pharocasts.blogspot.com/ http://magaloma.blogspot.com/
