We have just ported an application that uses Announcements from VW to Pharo, and it worked out of the box (well, a minor renaming was necessary, but it is now committed) with the implementation of Lukas. Cheers, Doru On 26 Feb 2009, at 11:20, Janko Mivšek wrote:
I found Vassili's Announcements a really cool way to implement any publish/subscribe event mechanism, because it is generally useful for many things from events in GUI apps to those on web apps and they can be extended even in a distributed way (think Hydra).
Announcements in Pharo are therefore very welcome, I'd just be careful that they are API compatible with VisualWorks, to ease porting.

Even as a beginner, it made sense to me!

That would be cool, actually. I have used the implementation of Lukas and it works just fine.

I also use the Lukas' version. That is the version that we should use and standarize to.

Lukas pointed out that the VW Announcements code is under Cincom copyright. The nice thing about his implementation is that he did not look at the code. He only implemented the idea as he read it from the blog :).

Hi all,
should we add Announcements as part of the core image? And if so, which of the existing implementations?
