Fwd: [squeak-dev] Re: Using WebClient

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: GermÃ¡n Arduino <garduino(a)gmail.com> Date: 2010/6/2 Subject: Re: [squeak-dev] Re: Using WebClient To: The general-purpose Squeak developers list <squeak-dev(a)lists.squeakfoundation.org> Hi Andreas: Thanks by the comments. I will continue with the multipart stuff, because this may become a payed work for a local customer. Indeed I could do the job with other tools but in most of cases that means install a gazillion of different pieces of software of third parts that are complex to make work. I prefer to develop my own solution, even with a bit more of work, but completeley Smalltalk. Then I can deploy on the customer a self containded service that I can extend as the customer need. I'm now reading about multipart/form-data enctype and will try to develop this feature for WebClient (if the customer don't cancel the project). Will send the news. Cheers.

Help with petitparser
by Adrien BARREAU June 2, 2010

June 2, 2010

Hello, I need some help with petitparser. I encountered 2 problems. Here they are: - I don't find to way in petitparser to: parse every string except a list of strings. For example, I want to parse all string except 'string' and 'STRING'. - I don't find a way to parse a string without taking care of its case. For example, I want to parse 'string', 'STRING', 'String', 'stRINg', etc ... I hope you'll can help me :) Adrien. _________________________________________________________________ La boÃ®te mail NOW GÃ©nÃ©ration vous permet de rÃ©unir toutes vos boÃ®tes mail dans Hotmail ! http://www.windowslive.fr/hotmail/nowgeneration/
