[Pharo-project] Pharo 1.0 release plan
by Torsten Bergmann Nov. 2, 2008

Nov. 2, 2008

>Is there anything important we missed? Yes - would be good if the first release is able to load and run a stable seaside version, if possible the newest. This depends on the seaside 2.9 release schedule but at least it is already loadable in urrent Pharo using squeaksource.com/SeasideLoader Had no time to do any tests.

[Pharo-project] Infinite loop in new Collection Tests
by nicolas cellier Nov. 1, 2008

Nov. 1, 2008

While running TestRunner, i noticed this: LinkedListTest>>testTAdd does an infinite loop. This is because: self collection first == self element since the test does: self collection add: self element this results in: self collection firstLink next next == firstLink and consequently any loop will loop infinitely... My base image is not well equipped with a Trait-aware Browser, so i let this one to Trait experts. Anyway, I find LinkedList is NOT a generic Collection but rather a single not reusable hack for Process. This is regularly bugging newcomers, and I would recommend an evolution toward something like http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/beginners/2008-July/004835.html That is, Link should be a transparent-implementation-defined-intermediate not visible via standard add:/remove:/do: messages. User should not have to provide a Link, but only the value. Only LinkedList specialized messages like addLink: removeLink: linksDo: should deal with user provided Link for more advanced features. Think of Dictionary and Association. A user can use Dictionary with: at: / at:put: without knowing about Association. Nicolas

[Pharo-project] mac menus in Pharo
by John McIntosh Nov. 1, 2008

Nov. 1, 2008

I'm wondering if there is any interest in having mac menus in Pharo. This was done for Sophie and Scratch, and attempted for 3.10. I could drag the required change sets out of storage to implement the proper file/edit menu in Pharo and have it respond to cmd-Q etc if there is any interest... -- =========================================================================== John M.

Hi one person is saying the following in the seaside mailinglist "In Pharo, some OmniBrowser functionality was broken and as I said timesRepeat: was broken. It had a '<' rather than '<=' for the loop comparison so the loop ran one too few times. I ran an update which fixed both problems. " Does one of you remember that we got a change changing timesRepeat: I have serious doubts this is why I"m asking. stef

[Pharo-project] How to load OmniBrowser into Pharo
by David RÃ¶thlisberger Nov. 1, 2008

Nov. 1, 2008

Hi, during the recent days we worked hard on OmniBrowser to extend, improve and stabilize it. We also improved the loading process of all required packages to run OmniBrowser (system and package browser). In the latest version of ScriptLoader you will find three load methods for OB: #loadOB loads the latest stable version linked in Universe. Use this to be on the safe side #loadOBAlpha loads the latest development version of all required packages stored in source.wiresong.ca/ob. Use this if you want to be on the cutting edge. ;) #loadSuperOB does the same as #loadOBAlpha, but also loads additional packages, for instance to get visualizations directly in OB. You use this to get everything. ;) Cheers, David

Hi all Here is a call for good design sharing. I already posted a mail on that design issue but I want to restate it. I really want in the future to be able to remove Preferences (we need preferences but not the way they are). right now when I'm LittApp an application and run my little flow I will suddenly invoke the HUGE Global center (Preferences) to see what **I** have to do.... So at the end of the day we got, debugger, compiler, Morphic.... depending on preferences and this is WRONG. What we should have (illustrated really well with the MC sorting menu) is LittApp is responsible for its own preferences So it runs, and check **Itself**: "oh how should I behave, let me see ***my own*** state tell me to turn right, to be novice friendly... and I do it. Notice how little application does NOT reference to the HUGE Preference Global Now the BIG Preferences setter will just change the configuration of the little app. Preferences>>sortingLittleApp LittleApp sortTop Now of course, littApp could be a bit smarter and say BIGPreferenceSetter here are my preferences we could use pragmas to define preferences that BIGPreferences would gather and present to the user.
