Re: [Pharo-users] TWM: Multiple World integration

Here is a UGLY changeset, just to show you what I was talking about :) For now you have to defined your method with pragma before displaying the dock bar, and only support vertical bar, but like that you can see :) (and yes, using MenuSpec to build buttons is bad ;) but the pragma hierarchy is a bit weird, so you can't properly inherits :s ) So by example add the method: finderButtonOn: aBuilder "I build a menu" <shortcutTWM> (aBuilder item: #Finder) action: [self open]; order: 0; parent: #Tools; help: 'Looking for something ?'; icon: self icon on Finder class side, open the Dock bar :) Ben PS: if you like it, I can do a better implementation ;) On Jun 8, 2011, at 5:07 PM, laurent laffont wrote: > On Wed, Jun 8, 2011 at 4:32 PM, Benjamin Van Ryseghem <benjamin.vanryseghem.pharo(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > > 2011/6/8 laurent laffont <laurent.laffont(a)gmail.com> > On Wed, Jun 8, 2011 at 4:05 PM, Benjamin Van Ryseghem <benjamin.vanryseghem.pharo(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > > On Jun 8, 2011, at 7:50 AM, laurent laffont wrote: > > On Wed, Jun 8, 2011 at 7:35 AM, StÃ©phane Ducasse <stephane.ducasse(a)inria.fr> wrote: > > the snapshotting looks really cool! > > In nautilus benjmain added groups. > > > > And TWM has already support for nautilus ;) > > > > Cool :-) > > > > > > I would like to know if we can use TWM as a kind of toolbar and add some custom shortcuts ? > > > What kind of shortcuts ? > > > I dunno, a button like when I click on it, it opens a Browser or something like that > > > Something like > > AbstractTWMBarButton subclass: #MyDoSomethingButton > > MyDoSomethingButton>>help > ^ 'I do a wonderful thing' > > MyDoSomethingButton>>icon > ^ blabla asForm > > MyDoSomethingButton>>execute > MyThing new open. > > MyDoSomethingButton>>priority > ^ 25 > > and then TWMBar creates one button per AbstractTWMBarButton subclass. > > > Is this what you would like ? > > And someone want to do this ? :) > > > Laurent. > > > > > > > Ben > > > Laurent. > > > > > > > > > Ben > > > > > > Laurent. > > > > > > > Stef > > > > > > On Jun 7, 2011, at 10:33 PM, laurent laffont wrote: > > > > > With the help of my local developper group, I've integrated Sean DeNigris work and now Tiling Window Manager supports Multiple Worlds. > > > > > > Here's a screencast that shows the progress.

Re: [Pharo-users] [Pharo-project] About GUI tests [was: TWM: Multiple World integration]

A cool thing is that with TWM I've > learned a lot on how to test GUIs, Worlds, ... > > > > I'm interested in these tests. > > Me too. > Some words about what I've learned. As TWM move / resize windows, it's better to create a World dedicated to the tests, so you don't see all your windows moving while testing (and if you use Autotest note that tests are run as soon as you save a method, quite fun :). So in TWM have a look at WMInANewWorldTestCase>>setUp and some of its subclasses like: - WMInANewWorldTestCase |_ WMWithTwoBrowsersAndTwoWorkspacesTest>>setUp |_ TWMBarWithTwoBrowsersAndTwoWorkspacesTest>>setUp If I merge the setUps: testWorld := PasteUpMorph new initAsTestWorld: WorldState new; yourself. testWorld bounds: (0@0 extent: 200@200). windowManager := TilingWM forWorld: testWorld. browser1 := self newBrowserIn: testWorld. browser2 := self newBrowserIn: testWorld. workspace1 := self newWorkspaceIn: testWorld. workspace2 := self newWorkspaceIn: testWorld. Then it should be easier to understand something like: WMWithTwoBrowsersAndTwoWorkspacesTest>>testTileVisibleWindowsShouldPlaceThemInTwoColumnsAndRows windowManager tileVisibleWindows. self assert: (0@0 extent: 100@100) equals: workspace2 bounds. self assert: (100@0 extent: 100@100) equals: workspace1 bounds. self assert: (0@100 extent: 100@100) equals: browser2 bounds. self assert: (100@100 extent: 100@100) equals: browser1 bounds. or WMWithTwoBrowsersAndTwoWorkspacesTest>>testTileLastUsedWindowsShouldTileOnlyLastTwoWindowsUsed workspace1 activate. browser2 activate. workspace2 activate. browser1 activate. browser1 minimize. windowManager tileLastUsedWindows.. self assert: (0@0 extent: 200@100) equals: browser1 bounds. self assert: (0@100 extent: 200@100) equals: workspace2 bounds. Another example: WMWithAnOBBrowserAndDockingBarsTest>>setUp super setUp. obbrowser := self newWindowFor: #OBSystemBrowser. taskBar := TaskbarMorph new openInWorld: testWorld; adhereToEdge: #bottom. leftBar := DockingBarMorph new adhereToLeft; width: 25; openInWorld: testWorld. Note that in Core there's no OB, so tests are expected to fail: WMWithAnOBBrowserAndDockingBarsTest>>expectedFailures ^ (Smalltalk at: #OBSystemBrowser ifAbsent: nil) ifNil: [self class testSelectors] ifNotNil: [#()] Now if I want to test the content of a window / morph, I use methods you can find in Morph, protocol submorphs-accessing. For example I want to find the menu that have a given icon. Here's an helper: TWMBarWithTwoBrowsersAndTwoWorkspacesTest>>menuWithIcon: aForm ^ self twmBar dock findDeepSubmorphThat: [:aMorph| (aMorph isKindOf: MenuItemMorph) and:[aMorph icon = aForm]] ifAbsent: [nil]. so I can test that the Other Tools menu in TWMBar have an entry named "New TestRunner": TWMBarWithTwoBrowsersAndTwoWorkspacesTest>>testOtherToolsMenuShouldContainsEntryForOpeningSUnitTestRunner self assertMenuWithIcon: twmBar otherToolsMenuIcon containsItemNamed: 'New TestRunner'. I can also check that clicking on a given entry do the action I want. For example, if I have a Browser browsing class String, there should be an entry in the Browsers menu. If minimized, when I click on it, the Browser should be placed on top and expanded: TWMBarWithTwoBrowsersAndTwoWorkspacesTest>>testClickOnBrowserTwoMenuItemWhenMinimizedShouldActivateIt |menuItem| browser2 minimize. workspace1 activate. menuItem := self itemNamed: 'String' fromMenuWithIcon: twmBar browsersMenuIcon. menuItem target perform: (menuItem selector). self assert: browser2 equals: SystemWindow topWindow. self assert: (windowManager visibleWindows includes: browser2). Finally, if you use some settings, it's better to backup them in the setUp and restore them in the tearDown, so you keep your Settings while testing them :) WMWithTwoBrowsersAndTwoWorkspacesTest >>setUp ...... backupNumberOfWindowsSetting := TilingWM numberOfLastUsedWindows. TilingWM numberOfLastUsedWindows: 2. WMWithTwoBrowsersAndTwoWorkspacesTest>>tearDown ..... TilingWM numberOfLastUsedWindows: backupNumberOfWindowsSetting.

Collaborating a little bit on PBE Spanish translation thou. Trying to give my 2 cents back to the community. Back to the problem: I checked in the MetacelloRepository for OSProcess, and found out that latest version is 4.4.2. So I downloaded the ConfigurationOfMagma from MetacelloRepository for Pharo 1.2...but then I found out that I dont understand anything about Metacello or how it works...so even if I tried to found a reference for OSProcess 4.4.0, i was not able to find it.

Re: [Pharo-users] Problem installing Magma

Yup, tried it, but the problem still occurs. I didn't know that latest version could be unstable or development version, shouldn't the one click image provides an easy way for newcomers to try pharo and it's associated projects. Suggesting an installation instruction that may provide a non stable version of a tool doesn't seem a good choice to me. Of course, one may argue that also people that wants to live on the edge may want to install the tool in its development or unstable releases. But you may also use loadDevelopment or loadBleedingEdge instead of load, and that is easier to know or find out for a more experienced developer than a newcomer. Just a though thou.
