[JOB] Pharo Engineer, Infrastructure
by Marcus Denker Dec. 12, 2015

Dec. 12, 2015

Engineer Position 1 year + 1 year ================================== INRIA RMoD and the Pharo Consortium are looking for a full-time engineer for helping with developing Pharo and the infrastructure around it. The focus of this job is the infrastructure that Pharo provides to external projects as well as the infrastructure we use to develop Pharo itself. - Infrastructure for external projects Pharo is used in many contexts: an ever growing number of frameworks are contributed by the community. Pharo already provides CI infrastructure, but what is missing is the automatic check of collections of frameworks and libraries. We want to provides validated "distributions" focussing on certain tasks, for example Pharo for Web development. - Pharo and Git Pharo has some support for using Git. The goal is to improve the support of git and other versioning systems. - Pharo itself The engineer is expected to be actively involved in helping to improve the infrastructure that the Pharo community uses (CI server for continues integration, interplay with issue tracking) and to actively help with day-to-day bug fixing. We are looking for a candidate with prior experience with Pharo and possibly some background in continuous integration: - Knowledge in Dynamic Languages - Continuous integration and deployment - English Work in a research lab, but no paper writing, no teaching, no administration. In addition: - Centrally located (one hour from Paris, 1h20 from London, 35 min from Brussels) - Try a lot of good beer (our office is just 10km from the border to Belgium) - Program with Pharo all day! Lille is an active city but not expensive (lot of students...), centrally located with good connections by train to everywhere (including CDG and Brussels airports). Duration: 12 + 12 months Starting date: Feb or March 2016 Salary: 2600-3200 euros brut / month, depending on experience Location: Lille (no remote job possible) More about Pharo: http://www.pharo.org INRIA RMOD: http://rmod.lille.inria.fr INRIA Lille: http://www.inria.fr/lille/ INRIA in General: http://www.inria.fr Lille: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lille http://wikitravel.org/en/Lille Do not hesitate to contact us for more information.

Why Zinc servers implemented with options dictionary instead of normal instance variables?
by Denis Kudriashov Dec. 11, 2015

Dec. 11, 2015

Hello. Just looked on ZnServer code. And I was wondering when see that everything is stored inside "options" variable (which is dictionary). For example port number is option which is really strange. What the reason for that?

Hook "WACurrentRequestContext" into debugger?
by Mariano Martinez Peck Dec. 11, 2015

Dec. 11, 2015

Hi guys, This thing I will ask in this email it's in my mind since YEARS. But I have always thought it was like that and that there was nothing we could do. However, I think it's time I ask again :) For those that have used Seaside, and you try to debug, you know that upon request processing seaside uses Exceptions mechanisim to always have access to the request, session, etc. They way that is done is very smart :) WACurrentRequestContext use: self during: aBlock In that case, "self" is the request instance and aBlock the closure that takes care of the request processing. So, inside that closure, everywhere you do "WACurrentRequestContext value" you get the correct request instance. So..that's great for Seaside, but debugging gets complicated. While you can restart, proceed, etc, once inside debugger, you cannot evaluate any piece of code that will use the session or request because you get a WARequestContextNotFound. Of course, because I guess the evaluation you do from cmd+d on a piece of text or via the debugger inspector, creates another closure/context which does not receive the WACurrentRequestContext instance. Now....besides WACurrentRequestContext I have my own class UserContextInformation where I basically have a bunch of stuff associated to the logged user. And I do exactly the same as the WACurrentRequestContext. And I have the same problem. I really want to be able to fix this. Anyone have an idea on how can I do it? I guess I can change the debugger, in the place where I evaluate code so that I wrap that evaluation with my request context instance??? Thoughts? -- Mariano http://marianopeck.wordpress.com
