rename packages (RPackage)
by Nicolai Hess Feb. 15, 2016

Feb. 15, 2016

What should happen if we rename a package, by only changing lower/uppercase: Rename FooBar to Foobar (there is an issue about this 17587 Renaming Package in Nautilus does not work) I am not yet sure what *should* happen: - raise an error, because (somewhere deep in the system) the names are considered the same - "silently" rename the package but do not make the package dirty - make the package dirty (just like if we would have change the name from FooBar to FooBaz) ? For example, in MCPackage #= and #hash, it looks like names, only differing in case, should be equal or should point to the same MCPackage. Nicolai

Proxy DNU vs CannotInterpret. (Ghost related)
by Denis Kudriashov Feb. 15, 2016

Feb. 15, 2016

I compared doesNotUnderstand: vs cannotInterpret: versions of proxies. DNUProxy>>doesNotUnderstand: aMessage lastMessage := aMessage. ^'from DNU proxy' CannotInterpretProxy>>cannotInterpret: aMessage lastMessage := aMessage. ^'from cannot interpret proxy' And DNU proxy works 2 times faster then #cannotInterpret proxy. [proxy someMessage] benchFor: 2 seconds. DNU: "a BenchmarkResult(22,377,669 iterations in 2 seconds. 11,188,835 per second)" CannotInterpet: "a BenchmarkResult(13,148,735 iterations in 2 seconds 2 milliseconds. 6,567,800 per second) Also DNU version is much more easy to explain. So why Ghost uses #cannotInterpret for proxies? (after reading Ghost paper I can't understand this). Naked proxy can be easily done by setting superclass to nil: ProtoObject subclass: #DNUProxy instanceVariableNames: '' classVariableNames: '' package: 'DNUProxy'. DNUProxy superclass: nil

More tests for new frameworks
by stepharo Feb. 15, 2016

Feb. 15, 2016

Hi guys with damien cassou we had an interesting discussion. Basically we are teaching tests and we see that many Pharo subsystems are not really well tested. I wonder how we can change this. For example, we will have a new graphical core without any tests and this is sad because tests could be really good to make sure that we will be able to move forward in the future. I would like to get tests for Ring. Stef

Hi I cannot produce videos with the latest pharo image because when I move a window then all the previous windows stay on the screen. Do you see the same? Stef

New debugger in pharo 5
by Norbert Hartl Feb. 15, 2016

Feb. 15, 2016

I'm using pharo 5 for the first time and I have trouble getting used to the new debugger there. I think that actions like proceeding, stepping into, overâ¦ etc. are important functionalities of a debugger. So it is not a good idea to move them to the upper right of the window and make them not to look like buttons. To me it is to make central functionality inaccessible. On the other hand I find the "Source" tab superfluous. Is this space supposed to be covered with more tabs then just the source? The Variables tab in the lower left: Is the "Type" information the most important? Not to me. If I look at the tab I want to find the name of a variable I expect there to be. So the Variable should be this first column, then Value and finally Type. This would also solve the UI issue that the Type label with strings of different size make a bad appearance when scrolling. It is hard to focus on the names of the Variable because the Type label having a dark background is catching attention. What needs some time to adjust but I like is to have the same behaviour as in the inspector in the bottom row starting from the actual execution context. my 2 cents, Norbert
