Re: [Pharo-users] Sqlite and UTF8 Problem

You can use text converters to convert data back and forth between different encodings.

Sqlite and UTF8 Problem

by Roger Gilliar

Hi, I would like to access a sqlite database from pharo. So far that seems to work. The only problem is that my sqlite database contains UTF-8 data and that for example Ã is displayed as Â¦Ã. Is there a workaround for this problem ? BTW: I'm using Pharo 1.4 and installed sqlite support like this: Gofer new squeaksource: 'MetacelloRepository'; package: 'ConfigurationOfSQLite3'; load. ((Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfSQLite3) project version: '1.2') load: 'Tests'. Regards Roger

Menubar at the top of Pharo's main window

by Christian Caldeiro

Hi, First of all, congratulations for the new 1.4 release. Iâm not new to Smalltalk but I am to Pharoâs UI. All I did until now in Pharo was using it as server (Seaside). I saw some applications done with Pharo that show a menu bar at the very top of its main window (lets say, above Pharoâs logo). Iâm wandering how to do that. All samples I saw (and correct me if Iâm wrong) first create a new window (ie a StandardWindow) and then add the menubar and menu to it. Any sample I can look at? Thanks Christian

Organization for the Pharo Conf.

by StÃ©phane Ducasse

Hi guys, I'm preparing the conference. I would like to make sure that we can get discussion around technology and business. I was thinking that we could have a session where you provide a presentation with 3 () slides - Your business - Your technological asset - What you can share We could put theses slides on the web as an advertisement. What I would like to get is the message that - other people should be able to see that we can do business in Pharo, - that they could get some knowledge, librariesâ¦ I'm looking for your ideas on how to setup the program so that we could have exchange on business opportunities.

Pharo conf. Social Event

by StÃ©phane Ducasse

Hi, For the conference, the lunches and coffee breaks are covered by INRIA and EMD. Now I would like to organize the social event for the thursday evening. Now our team cannot cover it because our budget is tight but I can have a really good restaurant (I know personally the cook). We could have a really good diner for around 30-35 Euros (with a cook cooking everything live in the back). Now I need to know who would like to join. You can come with your partners. So please let me know because like that I can book the restaurant. Stef

Re: [Pharo-users] truly basic terminal emulation

by Daniel Lyons

Next problem, the TextMorph is always the size of the initial string. It will grow vertically as lines are added, but I don't see how to make it resize to fit the frame. Any clues? window := StandardWindow labelled: 'Text test'. text := (TextMorph new contents: 'Hello, world!' asText). text fillStyle: (Color white). window addMorph: text frame: (0@0 corner: 1@1). window openInWorld. Thanks again, -- Daniel Lyons
