[Pharo-project] Kom not starting in Pharo-web image
by Adrian Lienhard July 31, 2009

July 31, 2009

In the latest Pharo-web image on startup HttpService complains that 'a service is already running on port 8080' (stack trace attached). Damien said he loaded the latest versions of Seaside/Kom from SqueakSource. If I do "WAKomEncoded startOn: 8080" and restart the image, it works. Is this a known problem and if not, what would be the right place to report it? On the Seaside bug tracker? Cheers, Adrian

[Pharo-project] Beginner Tasks
by Jeff Gonis July 31, 2009

July 31, 2009

Hi Everyone, I have been following Pharo for some time now, after starting off my smalltalk experience with Squeak By Example. I was wondering if there were any tasks suited to relative smalltalk beginners that could aid Pharo? I would like to contribute to the project but I consider my smalltalk skills still fairly basic, so are there tasks that I could accomplish that would aid the project without requiring expertise? Does documentation need to be written about something, do test scripts need to be run on new changes, are there basic fixes that need to be made that people are too busy to get to at the moment? I would be willing to assist with any and all of these, so please let me know what I can do. Thanks for your time and your efforts! Jeff G.

[Pharo-project] A question about Gofer
by StÃ©phane Ducasse July 31, 2009

July 31, 2009

Hi I would like to know if Gofer is also working deconnected. I often work in places where internet connection is not working and I would love to see my loading scripts checking my local cache for loading packages. If this is not there yet, Lukas may be I could add this features to Gofer? Stef

[Pharo-project] SmalltalkImage current platformName [WAS] Re: Baseline test results on pharo core 10392
by Mariano Martinez Peck July 30, 2009

July 30, 2009

Ok, I write the changeset, but I don't like it hehehehe. What about puting isMacintosh, isUnix and isWindows in SmalltalkImage ? I think those methods are useful and perhaps many people in different packages are doing things like this: ^SmalltalkImage current platformName = 'Mac OS' This is not nice. Tomorrow we change the platformName and we have to modify a lot of code. For example, I searched the string "SmalltalkImage current platformName = 'Mac OS'" and it is in a lot of places. I think we should get rid of them. what do you think? best, Mariano On Tue, Jul 28, 2009 at 3:18 PM, Adrian Lienhard <adi(a)netstyle.ch> wrote: > Yes, if you tested it and think it is good, please change the status > to verified. > > Cheers, > Adrian > > On Jul 28, 2009, at 17:12 , Miguel CobÃ¡ wrote: > > > should the ticket be marked as verified? > > > > > > On Tue, Jul 28, 2009 at 10:10 AM, Miguel CobÃ¡<miguel.coba(a)gmail.com> > > wrote: > >> It works ok on my > >> > >> Debian Linux 5.0 (Lenny) i386. > >> Debian Linux 5.0 (Lenny) amd64. > >> > >> Miguel CobÃ¡ > >> > >> 2009/7/28 Mariano Martinez Peck <marianopeck(a)gmail.com>: > >>> > >>> > >>> On Tue, Jul 28, 2009 at 11:58 AM, Adrian Lienhard > >>> <adi(a)netstyle.ch> wrote: > >>>> > >>>> On Jul 28, 2009, at 14:51 , Mariano Martinez Peck wrote: > >>>> > >>>>> On Tue, Jul 28, 2009 at 5:42 AM, Damien Cassou < > damien.cassou(a)gmail.com > >>>>>> wrote: > >>>>> > >>>>>> 2009/7/27 Mariano Martinez Peck <marianopeck(a)gmail.com>: > >>>>>>> HostSystemMenusTest class>>expectedFailures > >>>>>>> > >>>>>>> SmalltalkImage current platformName = 'Mac OS' ifFalse:[ > >>>>>>> ^#(#testXXX #testYYY)]. > >>>>>>> ]. > >>>>>>> ^#() > >>>>>> > >>>>>> Expected failures are indications of bugs that are not yet > >>>>>> corrected. > >>>>>> Does not seem to apply here. > >>>>> > >>>>> > >>>>> ahhh okok.
