[Pharo-project] CrLfFileStream class>>new?!
by Adrian Lienhard March 10, 2010

March 10, 2010

I was just puzzled why "CrLfFileStream defaultToLF" does not work until I figured that CrLfFileStream new returns an instance of a different class: CrLfFileStream class>>new ^ (MultiByteFileStream new) wantsLineEndConversion: true; yourself. Does somebody know what the point is? I really sometimes wonder why good coders write such code, and not even care to add a comment...

Re: [Pharo-project] Please: less license blahblah, more actual progress on the issue

They fucked up our lives. Possibly. But fanaticism has its share of guilt too. I have my opinion on what's worse. Paolo

[Pharo-project] About ExternalDropHandler initialize
by stephane ducasse March 9, 2010

March 9, 2010

Hi guys registerStandardExternalDropHandlers is not invoked from the class initialize and I was wondering if one of you know why. Right now we have: ExternalDropHandler class >> initialize "ExternalDropHandler initialize" self resetRegisteredHandlers. self registerHandler: self defaultImageHandler; registerHandler: self defaultGZipHandler. This is the same in Squeak

[Pharo-project] in 11233 merging is broken?
by StÃ©phane Ducasse March 9, 2010

March 9, 2010

Hi all I'm trying to integrate changes and apparently I cannot merge anymore nothing show up :). two questions: - do you get the behavior with 11233 or it is only me. - any idea of the potential problem - Issue 2071: subclasses and withAllSubclasses should return a array. - Issue 2076: Clean Exceptions. - Issue 2072: clean RealEstateAgent.

[Pharo-project] Alien on Win32 - Test and Integration into VM Sources
by Torsten Bergmann March 9, 2010

March 9, 2010

Cool! With Alien working on Win32 we now have it on all major platforms (windows, linux, mac) I send this mail CC to the squeak-dev/pharo-dev list so others are able to try the plugin on Win32 and give feedback. This mail also goes to vm-dev list and I hope one of the vm-maintainers (Andreas, Elliot, David? - also in CC:) are able to respond to you directly on how to integrate your changes into the offical win32 vm sources. Thx Torsten -------- Original-Nachricht -------- Datum: Tue, 9 Mar 2010 09:47:45 +0100 Von: "Schmidt, Marco" <Marco.Schmidt AT eads.com> An: "Torsten Bergmann" <astares AT gmx.de> CC: ml-node+104410-17186360-21457(a)n4.nabble.com Betreff: AW: Test Alien on Win32... I added a zip file with the exe and the needed dlls to the bug 1360 (http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=1360) I tested in the last days CairoGraphics and my own CurlLibrary binding - success! I have working callbacks for Curl too. I cloned the svn repo into a git repo. What is the correct format to submit patches to the developers? Marco -- Sicherer, schneller und einfacher.

Hi guys sorry for the fact that some of you could not update anymore due to a stupid name for package (we should check that : space ; / cannot be put in the package name. https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/download.php/26637/PharoCore-1.1-11254-UNSTABLE… Stef

[Pharo-project] FieldNode
by Pavel Krivanek March 9, 2010

March 9, 2010

Hi, I suppose that the class FieldNode should be removed. It is a Tweak hack: "FieldNode handles field access in Tweak, e.g. self fieldName := foo => self fieldName: foo." it is used only in Encoder >>Â #init:context:notifying: where it supposes nil offset. There's no such case in Pharo. Cheers -- Pavel
