Is there a metric server for Pharo
by Panu Suominen Feb. 28, 2011

Feb. 28, 2011

This time I ask before implementing something that has already been done. :) I know there are quite good tools for metrics and code quality control. However I don't know if there is any software to publish these kind of results. In Java world there is Sonar (http://www.sonarsource.org/) So, are there any tools to publish code quality metrics? If not I am going to see if sonar can be used to archive this task... someday. -- Panu

Simple plugin for Jenkins to run Pharo/Squeak VM images
by Panu Suominen Feb. 28, 2011

Feb. 28, 2011

I don't know if there will be any use for this, but I had couple of free hours last weekend and I made simple plugin to run Squeak/Pharo images inside Jenkins CI-server (formerly Hudson). After installation one should be able to configure Squeak/Pharo VM under hudson management. After that one is able add build step that runs Pharo/Squeak image. One can define parameters, image and script that is passed to the given image. I will improve documentation and such when I have time. However I will do it faster if there is some interest towars this kind of plugin. Codes can be loaded form the github. (mvn package should compile plugin under target dir). https://github.com/pnuz3n/Jenkins-Pharo-Plugin There is precompiled version currently available at URL. http://users.jyu.fi/~pajumasu/jenkins-pharo-plugin/jenkins-pharo-plugin.hpi -- Panu

Re: [Pharo-users] SimpleWebDoc question
by laurent laffont Feb. 27, 2011

Feb. 27, 2011

Hi Marco, I've put the working image here: http://lolgzs.free.fr/pharo/simplewebdoc.zip Note it uses Pharo pre-1.0 and Seaside 2.8. The nice url http://localhost:8080/Collections is handled by SWDocView>>initialRequest: I don't know if it works with Seaside 3. I haven't looked back at SimpleWebDoc for more than one year, and I've written it to learn so it's hacky. No problem to post future questions, but I think that posting on pharo-users list is even better (I read it). And thanks to look at this project. Cheers, Laurent.

Monticello: how to update package-cache listing?
by DougEdmunds Feb. 25, 2011

Feb. 25, 2011

I deleted a mcz file manually from the package-cache directory (outside of Pharo), but when I go into the package-cache repository, through Monticello, the deleted file still appears on the list for that package. What code do I run to refresh the listing of the contents of the package-cache repository for Monticello? -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Monticello-how-to-update-package-cache-listing-tp3325… Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Provided packages from Metacello project configuration
by Panu Suominen Feb. 25, 2011

Feb. 25, 2011

This is probably wrong mailing list for this question... Is there a way to define what categories/packages/classes are provided by the given configuration? For example ConfigurationOfXXX project latestVersion providedPackages This would not include the packages that are required by the project and are actually provided by other configurations/projects. If there is a way to produce this kind of package list it would help implementing CI-testing. Testing script would not have to explicitly list what packages to test but could refer to the project definition. Currently one has to alter the testing script every time the packages are changed. With this kind of information one could implement project CI-builds with something like this: whatToBuild := ConfigurationOfXXX project lastVersion. whatToBuild load. HDTestReport runPackages: whatToBuild providedPackages. HDLintReport runPackages: whatToBuild providedPackages. And then it would be easy to build custom Job plugin to Jenkins that would simply ask about the name and the location of ConfigurationOfXXX. -- Panu

What to do after vm crash?
by DougEdmunds Feb. 24, 2011

Feb. 24, 2011

XP SP3 box, Pharo.exe v 4.0.2.0 Image: PharoCore-1.2 I've been using this image for several days. This time when I opened it, it immediately crashed. I've tried starting it several times, including after a reboot, with the same results. I get a popup entitled "Fatal VM error', with some numeric details. When I click ok, it writes a crash.dmp file and closes. 1) Is there a way to to recover the image, if I start with a clean image? 2) Is there anyone who wants a copy of the crash.dmp report? It's about 100 lines long, and I could post it or email a copy to someone.
