funny idea Symbol vs. Selector
by stephane ducasse May 14, 2015

May 14, 2015

Hi guys I'm thinking aloud... I was wondering if we could not take advantage of a new class: Selector. MethodDict would only contain selectors and not symbols. I remember that I talked about that with hernan. Stef

Help (perfect for newcomers) migrating a technical FAQ
by Mariano Martinez Peck April 9, 2011

April 9, 2011

Hi folks. I had a good idea and and it perfect for someone that wants to help and don't know how. It is not the most entertained task, but I promise you will learn a lot. Mostly, if you are newcomer. The idea is basically to migrate the FAQ that is here: http://scg.unibe.ch/wiki/faq/pharofaq to a new section in the collaborative Pharo book: http://book.pharo-project.org/ So....any takers ? Let us know so that we generate a new user in the Book The idea is also to check whether what is says is still correct for pharo or if it needs an update. Or even how to improve it (from the view of a newcomer). Thanks Mariano

I can't seem to get: SMTPClient example to work. I changed the 'deliverMailFrom:', 'to:' and 'usingServer:' arguments to valid entries but I keep getting a 'TelnetProtocolError'. Could someone else please test this out cos I think it's broken. Please prove me wrong ;-) I'm using: Pharo-1.1.1-- Latest update: #11414 on Windows XP Pro SP3. Dan

Pharo integration in enterprise feedback
by laurent laffont Dec. 3, 2010

Dec. 3, 2010

Hi, I'm looking for feedback on Pharo integration in enterprise. Especially how you have managed to put Pharo in your enterprise. For example, I'm involved in web application development in other languages. For functional testing I'm able to script Selenium using Pharo thanks to WebTester. So Pharo has made a small step at my work. I'm looking for such stories. Cheers, Laurent Laffont Pharo Smalltalk Screencasts: http://www.pharocasts.com/ Blog: http://magaloma.blogspot.com/

pharo 1.1. headless server startup and shutdown
by Jon Hancock Nov. 30, 2010

Nov. 30, 2010

I've found a few tidbits on how to start pharo headless. I'm using the most recent Pharo-1.1-OneClick.app which works fine for dev on OS X. When I try to move this to linux, I get troubles. To keep things simple, I've copied the pharo.sh script as pharo-headless.sh. Here is the script: --- BEGIN --- #!/bin/sh # path ROOT=`dirname $0` BASE="$ROOT/Contents/Linux" # execute exec "$BASE/squeakvm" \ -plugins "$BASE" -mmap 100m -encoding latin1 \ -vm-display-X11 -vm-sound-null -headless \ "$ROOT/Contents/Resources/pharo.image" --- END --- On ubuntu 10.04 32-bit I get this: jhancock@pi1:~/Pharo-1.1-OneClick.app$ ./pharo-headless.sh libSM.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory could not find module vm-display-X11 Aborted On ubuntu 8.04 64-bit I get this: knr@us1:~/Pharo-1.1-OneClick.app$ ./pharo-headless.sh exec: 15: ./Contents/Linux/squeakvm: not found I really need to get it running on the ubuntu 8.04 64-bit system. Once I get past this problem, what is the best method to kill/shutdown pharo from outside the dev environ? I don't require to save the image, just safely kill it so it doesn't hold on to resources like socket listener, etc... thanks, Jon

Changesets with LF/CRLF instead of CR?
by Stefan Marr Nov. 29, 2010

Nov. 29, 2010

Hi: Is there an easy way to have change sets filed out with LF instead of the horribly incompatible CR? And well, how do I convince the import to accept my change sets? Related to that, what is the status of this GSoC Project http://gsoc2010.esug.org/projects/git-mercurial is that related to http://www.squeaksource.com/Git?

References to 'Squeak' in the Pharo image
by Daniel Klein Nov. 27, 2010

Nov. 27, 2010

I'm seeing some references to 'Squeak' in the image, especially in the Class documentation. Should I be reporting this somewhere? Dan

Can't Quit Pharo
by Scott Clausen Nov. 24, 2010

Nov. 24, 2010

Hello, I just downloaded Pharo and am excited to explore Smalltalk with it. I have run into one small problem. I can't quit Pharo either with Cmd-Q or via menu selection. I have to force quit it. Are there any workarounds or any other advice for me? I' running running Mac OS X 10.6.5. Thanks, Scott A man who limits his interests limits his life. -- Vincent Price
