[Pharo-project] Copy/paste not works
by Igor Stasenko Jan. 23, 2010

Jan. 23, 2010

Just loaded the latest pharo-core image and found that i can't copy/paste the text, not only between something outside an image and image, but also even inside an image. When i pasting the text, a text editor marks itself as modified, but nothing is pasted. Running on Fedora 12 Linux 2.6.31.6-166.fc12.i686 #1 SMP Wed Dec 9 11:14:59 EST 2009 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux GNOME 2.28.0 -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig.

Some points: 1) I had not thought of the advantages of using Smalltalk to debug/develop an application remotely. Commenters have made clear that the remote aspect is very useful. I was just thinking of development in general where my application and development images are on the same machine. Does it make sense to first create a system having both a development image and application image and once that is complete add the capability to work remotely? Or is it best that both be implemented in parallel? If the two tasks can be separated then I suggest we worry about achieving the first while keeping the second in mind during development. 2) While this seems like an exciting project to me I do not have the necessary skills/knowledge. The best I could offer would be as a serf in some corner implementing some component that I could handle. Actually I cannot really offer that because I have my own open source project that I am working on for the next several man years. Worse still I am going broke (Hi Keith) and desperately need to find a job. Unfortunately Smalltalk jobs in Canada are extremely rare so I can going to have to program in C or Java or learn Python or Php or Ruby (any recommendations as to which of those languages is the best) just so I can be employed. I would really like to see this project go forward though. I also much prefer some current version of Smalltalk make this modification rather than forking a new Smalltalk (call it Orapple?). Can this project go forward in stages, say in 4 stages, with a stage completed with each major release? Could the project be a loadable package or are things too intimate for that? 3) I don't know much about stripping but I don't believe this idea removes it. Even if the application and IDE are separated the application image is likely to have many things not meant for the client such as application specific debugging tools (tools separate from the IDE), testing software such as SUnit tests, features meant for one client but not another, etc. As pointed out, however, stripping becomes much easier and effective if the IDE is separated from the image. An alternative to stripping is to have three images, The IDE image, the application development version image and the application release image. Then the application release image never has anything in it that needs to be stripped (ignoring the multiple client issue). Admittedly, having three imaging running at the same time seems a bit wild. To be honest, I really don't know if having a third image is a good idea. I wouldn't worry too much about this though until we actually have a much progressed real project on our hands.

[Pharo-project] PluggableButtonMorph>>askBeforeChanging
by Igor Stasenko Jan. 23, 2010

Jan. 23, 2010

As to me this is a good example of placing a decisive role into wrong place, bloating the morph's protocol. The 'askBeforeChanging' is used in #performAction which asks the model , if it wants to change: askBeforeChanging ifTrue: [model okToChange ifFalse: [^ self]]. But why doing that, isn't model unable to send #okToChange in its own action handling method? i.e. if button does: model perform: actionSelector where actionSelector == #foo, what prevents a model to implement this method as: foo self okToChange ifFalse: [ ^ self]. self doSomething. ? Or, even if model wants to do something without asking in one case, but with asking in another, what prevents it to implement: #doSomething and #doSomethingIfOkToDoIt and choose appropriate selector as action to a button(s)? Or, if we look at it from different angle. A button widget main role is to trigger some action. The action could be anything: from very simple one up to complex, composite one. And 'ask-before-change-then-do' is an example of composite action. So, let button just trigger that composite action. Why putting an action handling logic to the place where action having completely abstract meaning? -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig.

Jan. 22, 2010

Hi Folks, Apparently people have been having problems following Pharo by Example with the latest Pharo images. To make their lives easier, I have now added a download link to http://PharoByExample.org for a dedicated image. It is essentially pharo1.0-10451-BETAweb09.09.3 with the OB Package Browser selected by default. It should be 99% consistent with the book. Please pass the word on to anyone you know who is experiencing problems following the book. - on

I think they made the mistake of focussing on being able to produce very small executables rather than just separating the development and deployment images. I think Steve was able to produce a tiny executable that only contained SmallInteger and hence was able to eliminate tagged pointers and method lookup. But the focus on optimization was I think a step too far. One thing I remember was that the communications stub in the deployment image was in the VM, not in Smalltalk code, again I think a mistake. Can anyone from Digitalk put flesh on these bones? We spent a lot of time discussing doing this in the VisualWorks team about 10 years ago but as far as I'm aware none of it was realised. Splitting tools UIs from the image under development (the target image) was a major design goal behind OpenTalk, the distributed messaging framework that Xu Wang did. We had the idea of the Model in an MVC triad being the interface between the UI and target images, the natural point at which one would define an API narrow enough to be efficiently distributed. If the API is designed appropriately one would be exchanging symbols (class names, selectors etc) not complex objects (classes, compiled methods) and that because symbols and numbers are immutable they can be passed by value. We had the idea of the model being split in two, one half being specific to a tool and the same whether one was in a single image or in the ui/target pair, and the other half being an adaptor to either the local image or the remote target. This adaptor would have sat between a model and some complex object graph (like the class hierarchy) and defined the entire API through which the object graph was accessed, narrowing the interface to make it suitable for distribution, and doumenting the interface to make it easier to understand. Vassili named these things between the model and an object graph TTIBs for "The Things In Between". We very much wanted to produce a set of tools in a tools UI image that could be targetted either at itself or at a remote target, and wanted to be able to attach the tools image to a remote target dynamically (which we called "dynamic capitation", for dynamically gaining a head) so that one could have full debuggability on a remote image deployed in the field. Alas we never managed to get the priority of the project high enough to actually commit major resources to it. There were always more pressing more mundane things to do. Frustration at not doing things like this was in part behind my leaving Cincom. Xu got quite far with a prototype, demonstrating things like a distributed inspector that allowed one to walk though an object graph spanning more than one image. The inspector would change colour to indicate which machine the current object was one. Personally I think that Smalltalk is the ideal vehicle for this kind of approach. We have lightweight remote messaging which is relatively easy to implement. We have UI architectures which are relatively well-decomposed and amenable to distribution. We have a reified exception system which is not pushed down into hidden execution machinery and which has resume semantics. We now have a much faster much more reliable internet. We could relatively easily add things like delegation which can enable interesting interleaving of tools and target images (see below). I think we could have something truly revolutionary, the ability to interact with a remote headless image that contains no development tools or UI frameworks and only a relatively small communications module (remote messaging interface). This would enable us to get to images of a few 10s or 100s of kilobytes. I fervently hope you work on this. Lots of people want this. I was reading Colin's Thin Air <http://www.wiresong.ca/air/> pages on wiresong yesterday and what he wants is realised by this. If you do work on this remember your goals. The most important thing is incremental deliverables and useful progress. Don't focus on whizzy optimisations or cool demos (such as the inspector changing colour). Dn't focus on arbitrarily complex topologies of remote images. Instead focus on building a robust, well-engineered remote tools framework that just allows one to do what one can do today in a browser and debugger, but remotely between two images. I would start with browser, debugger and stripper, where stripper would be something that allowed you to eliminate code from the target image using the UI image to discover what was there and what was needed or not, i.e. remote stripping, not the much trickier auto-stripping. On delegation I think one really cool thing is to wrap remote objects with local development-only code. In a deployed image I would expect there to be no inspectorClass methods or debugPrintOn: messages etc. The target is lean and mean. Anything not needed for deployment except that which supports adequate remote messaging is absent. So one wants to be able to add methods that add debugging features to remote objects, and delegation is the way. If the local handle on a remote object is wrapped by a delegate, the delegate can implement the debugging methods. Catching doesNotUnderstand: in the target mage can allow one to intercept computations in the target and resume them in the development image. So when connecting a tools image to a target one would layer tools and UI code upon objects in the target but that code would reside only in the tools image. Naming conventions in packaging, like splitting a Foo package into Foo-Deployment & Foo-Development could help in making this kind of split easy to navigate and conceptualise. So after producing the tools/target split I would next focus on packaging tools, including analysis of call graphs etc to help automating the deployment/development split. Anyway, enough waffle.

[Pharo-project] Spell check test cases
by Stan Shepherd Jan. 22, 2010

Jan. 22, 2010

Hi Lukas, I created some test cases for internal spell check, at http://www.squeaksource.com/RBBugFixes Some are failing, as there are $' characters being passed through from the parser. Also, the literals check sees to be checking the node, rather than the node value. There are some suggested changes in the same repository, that make the tests run green, and don't appear to affect the rest of Refactoring-Tests. please let me know if these make sense. Thanks, ...Stan -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Spell-check-test-cases-tp4288633p4288633.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
