Hi Esteban, I finished the Glamour changes to only use on:send:to: between the Glamour model and the Glamour renderer. Cheers, Doru On 15 Feb 2011, at 17:37, Tudor Girba wrote:
Hi Esteban,
I started to refactor all usages of on:do: and when:do: into on:send:to: in the core of Glamour. I am almost finished.
Now the only question is if we want to distinguish between WeakAnnouncer and Announcer. Is there a performance penalty or another kind of drawback in merging the two and use the WeakAnnouncer implementation only?
The other thing is that we need to add on:send:to:with: and on:send:to:withAll: because we need to handle extra parameters (given that we cannot access local variables).
Cheers, Doru

Well... not exactly, still something to do: the weak associations on weakannouncer are getting a lot of pairs #selector->nil and we need to think in a way to clean this. But this is doable :) In other order of things, I think we should explicitly forbid the use of #on:do: and #when:do: until the fix for blocks is ready.
Cheers, Esteban

Aha. Thanks a lot. Ok, let's do that. Is it true that the Lukas' Announcements already provide the support for on:send:to: ?
Cheers, Doru

Hi, Well, this means, in the mean time, if we want to solve our issue 492 using weak announcements, we need to replace all #on:do: calls for #on:send:to: :(
Cheers, Esteban

good question :)
On FHi,
I'm working with weak announcements,
good we need that. Igor was telling me that the right anwser are ephemerons (but for that: gc change is required). Now it would be good to have first a solution at image level
trying to make it work, and I have a problem in #on:do: protocol (or #when:do:) I try to explain:
This method receives a block, not an object/selector, so I can't create a WeakMessageSend which is the appropriate message to handle in other cases. Well, the real question is... how can I produce a "Weak BlockClosure reference" who can die if receiver dies? I tried some hacks (really ugly hacks, btw), but fail completely. Any idea?
best, Esteban
