Network save and load
by Hilaire Fernandes Dec. 11, 2011

Dec. 11, 2011

Hello, In DrGeo I want a new feature: users could save and load sketches in a remote server. It could be done with FTP or HTTP, or any other means. I don't have any experience in networked operation nor what it is possible to do with the Pharo classes library. What are your suggestion? Thanks Hilaire -- Dr. Geo -- http://www.drgeo.eu

instance variables need to get updated.
by kanmani priyadharshini Dec. 10, 2011

Dec. 10, 2011

Hi, Â I am Priya. I am entirely new to Pharo. I have to submit a project in one week to get placed (tough task for those who dont have any knowledge about smalltalk or the Pharo environment). Â I am doing a very small project for getting two numbers from the user and performing basic calculations on them. There is a drop-down menu with options - add, subract, multiply, divide. Â I have a problem with this step. content := (builder newLabelGroup: { Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 'First number' -> ( Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â n1 := (builder Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â newTextEntryFor:self Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â getText: #num1 Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â setText:Â #num1:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â help: 'Enter the first number') Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â acceptOnCR: false; Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â minWidth: 200).Â ....... Here, num1 is an instance variable with accessors (returns 0 as default). num1 is not getting upated when I enter in the text field. I am not getting any error also. Transcript window is showing the value of num1 as 0. Can anyone help me with this, please? Â (Event handling and all is working properly sending a message to the add method. Only the instance variables are not getting updated.)
