I did not know that there is such a chapter there. Is there a link to the book from pharo homepage? However, the book gives me an error: Seaside Walkback Error: subscript is out of bounds: 8218 -- Panu

A thought about the fear of not knowing
by StÃ©phane Ducasse Sept. 8, 2010

Sept. 8, 2010

Hi Pharoers, lurkers, users We repeat all over the same: we welcome you to participate and while we are cool and welcoming, you feel "oh I cannot, I do not know, this is complex..." You look at us like Gurus, but let us be clear, we are not, we are just common people that have a debugger, kids in the bed and good music in the background (for me Cool Jazz or Thrash Metal). Of course some parts of the system are ugly, buggy, britlle, messy... but less and less, more and more good abstractions are taking life AND!!!! First, we are all learners and newbie on something (at least the mortal among us) but to learn we should start somewhere Second, start small - we tag some bug entries as easy, give a try. - put a break point in the code - write a test - do something fun You will not fail, why? because either you do not find anything and there is no problem but you will learn something and you can pass to the next one. Or you find something and you got it :) We did that with marcus when we were squeak harvesters. There were a lot of things we could not get but we pass to the next. :) Now I browse bugs bugs and bugs and I can tell you that 85% of the bugs are terribly stupid. Even more. So focus on these ones :) Pharo is the system we (you and us) will build. Stef

Dear Pharoers :) this year ESUG would like to reward effort made in book publications. Since we want to push new books but that it takes time to write books we will take into account a window of 5 years. So you are requested to vote for the best book of the last 5 years. http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Q2LKKDT Stef on the behalf of the ESUG board.

Thanks to John Toohey for this contribution. - New support for Firebird 100% green tests in Windows. - New support for MySQL 4. - New tests for PostgreSQL sequences, for bad data settings, large objects, etc. - We now let a platform to set special options ALWAYS before opening the connection. - Packages remodularization and little changes so that to easily support ports, for example to Dolphin. - Start to support large objects. For the moment: Postgresql supports TEXT, MySQL supports TEXT and BLOB, and SQLite CLOB (error with BLOB), Oracle supports CLOB and NCLOB. - Added the possibility to enable or disable automatic release of connections using WeakRegistry. - Notes - Tested with Cog, resulting in an average of 3x increase and 100% green. - Tested in Pharo 1.0 and 1.1. - Updated Metacello configurations To install it: Gofer new squeaksource: 'MetacelloRepository'; package: 'ConfigurationOfSqueakDBX'; load.

TestSprinter
by Benjamin Van Ryseghem Sept. 3, 2010

Sept. 3, 2010

Hello everybody I'm now working on a new Test Runner tool and I wonder which behaviours do you want me to implement. For now, I want the Test Sprinter to be able to : - search through packages and classes thanks to search fields. - browse the hierarchy from packages to test methods (with icons). - create groups of tests easily re-runnable. If you have any ideas, I'm waiting for them ;) Thank you Ben
