Starting a new ancestry from an MC package
by Sean P. DeNigris Aug. 9, 2010

Aug. 9, 2010

Can I save a MC package without its ancestor info? I made changes to a package, but the new and old packages are not logically related. I would like the new package to appear as the first in its ancestry. Thanks.

Pharocasts: Web application testing through Selenium-RC
by laurent laffont Aug. 8, 2010

Aug. 8, 2010

http://pharocasts.blogspot.com/2010/08/web-application-testing-through.html WebTester is a framework to test web applications. Designed to support several testing systems, it actually provides an implementation which uses Selenium RC. You can test a any web application with it; but if you are developing Seaside applications you can take a component (any component), and unit test that component. For me the cool part is that with this sort of tool it's easy to open the entreprise backdoor to Pharo. Pharo + WebTester can quickly integrate an existing (web) development based on other tools / languages. Christoph's voice should arrive soon. Cheers, Laurent Laffont http://pharocasts.blogspot.com/ http://magaloma.blogspot.com/

I just changed some instance variables - now what?
by Pat Maddox Aug. 4, 2010

Aug. 4, 2010

Simple example: I create a Person class that has one instance variable named 'name'. I've created a few instances and put them in a collection "Person allPeople". Now I change Person's definition to have the instance variables 'firstName' and 'lastName' and remove the instance variable 'name'. The Person instances I have now have instance variables 'firstName' and 'lastName' set to nil. When I'm developing locally it is okay (if irritating) for me to wipe out any objects that I have in memory and start again. More importantly, I don't have the first clue how I'm going to deploy code and keep it up to date. I can get the new code in via Monticello, but what good is that if it wipes out all of my data? I feel stupid asking because I'm sure there's some aspect I'm missing, but please help me out here because I'm not seeing it. Pat

libGLU.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
by StÃ©phane Ducasse Aug. 2, 2010

Aug. 2, 2010

I'm using Pharo for the first time as a beginner. My O/S is $ uname -a Linux shevek 2.6.31.12-0.2-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2010-03-16 21:25:39 +0100 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux which is OpenSuSE 11.2 I downloaded and unzipped Pharo-1.1-OneClick.app with this result: $ pwd /home/greg/Play/Lang/Special/Pharo/Pharo-1.1-OneClick.app $ ./pharo.sh libGLU.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory could not find module vm-display-X11 Aborted However, the module does seem to exist: $ find . -name '*vm-display-X11*' ./Contents/Linux/so.vm-display-X11 I look forward to running Pharo and sharing it with my friends when it comes up reliably for newbies like me on Gnu/Linux - something which Squeak has not yet achieved!

"textMorph paragraph recomposeFrom: 1 to: textMorph contents size delta: 0."

"textMorph editor blinkParen." self scrollSelectionIntoView With that, i've color in my PluggableTextMorph, but I think it's not the proper way to do it :) > Thanks > I will check your code.

>Hi ben > >on which version should I load it? >It is important that recentMessages works without shout. Now i'm working on Pharo 1.2 so I now use PluggableTextMorph, but then it doesn't work on 1.1 anymore (because of the styler). I've also added two NullObject class to simulate stylers so if a real styler exist it choose it, else it choose the nullstyler. I will add a droplist in the System >> Setting to change the default styler class :) Ben

Couple of newbie questions
by Thomas Worthington Aug. 1, 2010

Aug. 1, 2010

Hi everyone, Two questions: 1) How do I get my Pharo 1.0 to "upgrade" to the 1.1 image? 2) How do I make a "one-click" image that will start my app when clicked? Sorry if these are FAQs, but I couldn't find answers via Google. TW
