[Pharo-project] Recent MC doesn't support loading classes with nil superclass?
by Igor Stasenko Sept. 25, 2009

Sept. 25, 2009

Tested both in Pharo-Core & Squeak trunk image. The class i defined is: ProtoObject subclass: #BBBNameOfSubclass instanceVariableNames: '' classVariableNames: '' poolDictionaries: '' category: 'NILSuperClass'. BBBNameOfSubclass superclass: nil In attachment you can fin the fileout of it. And MC package, saved with it. If you try load the package, MC will display warning that you should resolve dependencies 'nil' before loading the class ;) Background: I wanted to migrate to newer image and saved my package, im working on, which i didn't touched for 3-4 months, and found that it can't be loaded :( -- Best regards, Igor Stasenko AKA sig.

[Pharo-project] Deploying Seaside: A tutorial
by Miguel Enrique CobÃ¡ Martinez Sept. 24, 2009

Sept. 24, 2009

I have to written a tutorial about deploying Seaside applications to production servers. The tutorial uses a simple application to test a setup with following components: Debian GNU/Linux lighttpd Magma server Magma seasideHelper Seaside 2.8 PharoCore You can find the tutorial here: http://miguel.leugim.com.mx/index.php/2009/09/18/deploying-seaside-applicat… http://miguel.leugim.com.mx/index.php/2009/09/22/deploying-seaside-install-… http://miguel.leugim.com.mx/index.php/2009/09/22/deploying-seaside-prepare-… http://miguel.leugim.com.mx/index.php/2009/09/22/deploying-seaside-populate… http://miguel.leugim.com.mx/index.php/2009/09/22/deploying-seaside-configur… Hopefully this will add to the collective knowledge and will answer some questions we all have had with respect to deploying Seaside. There are a couple of post that I must write yet, the SeasideProxyTester explanation and the load testing ones but you can have a fully configured setup to try and adapt to your needs. Critics and comments are welcome. Cheers -- Miguel CobÃ¡ http://miguel.leugim.com.mx

[Pharo-project] Bug in OCompletion
by Mariano Martinez Peck Sept. 23, 2009

Sept. 23, 2009

http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=1236 Tested with OBSystemBrowserAdaptor in pharo1.0-10451-BETAdev09.09.3 on Windows. To reproduce: 1) Open a System Browser 2) Create a new class. When you do this, when you are changing "#NameOfSubclass" to "#YourClass", after doing this press the down arrow key 3) An empty pop up will be brought and the keyboard won't respond. To fix this, you must press "Esc" key. Best, Mariano

[Pharo-project] implementors of
by Ross Boylan Sept. 23, 2009

Sept. 23, 2009

In the system browser I have PRAjaxSearchWidget>>renderContentOn: selected. When I hit the "implementors" button, or when I highlight a method name in the body of renderContentOn: and hit alt-m, I only get implementors of renderContentOn:. Is it supposed to work this way? Is there a convenient way to get a list of all the methods in body of renderContentOn:, and pick one to see its implementors (as in vanilla squeak, at least 3.10). I'm working with Pier-1.2.app.zip downloaded a few days ago from the Pier site. Running on Linux. Thanks. Ross

At present I'm on a 32-bit VM, but I'm trying to build a package that'll work both on Squeak/Pharo and on GemStone/S 64. > > Alien has support for 64-bit values.

OK, I took a first stab at this. In Alien-Core-KenTreis.57, I added the a class variable that holds a dictionary of platform sizes, along with accessors on Alien class for sizeof(type)[1]. I am imagining that this dictionary could be populated with a primitive, but for now it has to be set by hand. Probably high time I learned how to build Squeak primitives, but deadlines are calling... I also added Alien>>signedIntAt:/put: and unsignedIntAt:/put:. Right now these assume you're on an IA32 architecture (heck, that's the name of the plugin). But at least they hide that detail from the CairoGraphics package, which can simply use `Alien sizeofInt` in offset calculations and `Alien sizeofPointer` when data structures don't align nicely on 8-byte boundaries. Other changes in this version: * Class-side convenience callout helpers on AlienLibrary (e.g. int:with:, void:withArguments:, etc). These defer their actual behavior to primitives on the singleton instance, but provide for (IMHO) cleaner invocation from other objects. * Flush the list of loaded libraries at image startup, like the original Alien package did, instead of doing it at image shutdown as later versions do. This lets you save the image without dropping all of your libraries and invalidating external references. * A couple of accessors on AlienWeakTable that let you find a registered object by tag (analogous to Dictionary>>keyAtValue:), remove by tag, and return a strong reference to everything that the table currently holds weakly. The Cairo package uses these when handles are explicitly released and when flushing handles at image startup. I'm lobbying for inclusion of all of these in the trunk, but I'll be glad to defer to the better judgement of the package maintainers if my code is determined to be wrong/misguided. At this point this all works for me, and works well enough that I can load CairoGraphics and my "alien lite" in GemStone, and the various pointers, data offsets, etc. are right for Linux/x86_64. [1] I know there were some accessors for a few types already, but it seemed odd to have implementors for both signedLongSize and unsignedLongSize since the size doesn't depend on the sign-edness. I liked the C-like use of sizeofLong, sizeofPointer, etc but am willing to defer to somebody else's judgement on these method names. -- Ken Treis Miriam Technologies, Inc.
