Nautilus SBD IC buttons
by Francois Stephany Jan. 27, 2013

Jan. 27, 2013

Am I the only to never use the buttons on the right in Nautilus? In practice, when do you need to see the bytecode/decompiled versions of a method? Is there a way to trigger the Instance and class variables buttons with a keyboard shortcut? Is there a way to remove completely the panel containing those buttons? Cheers, Fa

I would like to suggest that anyone who is interested joins, and we can produce a first attempt at a plan - and maybe some running code :-). Anyone else interested?

I think it is important that we try to reach a consensus on this, purely to minimise duplicated work. It would be great if - for example - the pharo consortium were able to issue a new cartridge when they issue a new pharo release. So that the hosted version of pharo is automatically kept up to date. My vision is that we end up with a one-click hosting model in just the same way we have one click pharo. That would be fantastic :-)

<I am merging my responses to Bernat and Stephane> I agree that there are probably too few webdevs to make this viable - yet :-). However, we may be able to build on other people's work. For example, I have been quite impressed by OpenShift. I wondered if someone could create a Pharo (or gemstone) cartridge. That would then give us access to the rest if their system. It might then allow anyone to set up their own system, just by using that cartridge. Obviously, someone would need to keep the cartridge up to date etc, and maybe a first step would be to adapt the work on Harbour to make image uploading easier. At this point, as I am sure you can tell, I am way beyond my expertise, so I am just guessing. However, it does seem as though people - such as redhat - are doing a lot if the work for us, and it could be smart to build on their structures. Has anyone tried creating a cartridge? Or would someone like to try? I am happy to sponsor part of this, if that helps. Cheers Andy

Spec: how to select contents of TextModel on focus
by Sean P. DeNigris Jan. 25, 2013

Jan. 25, 2013

As the user tabs through the text fields of my Spec dialog, I'd like for the text to be selected in the currently active field. How do I do this? I played with #readSelectionBlock:, which seems to be sent during initialization but not navigation, and #whenReadSelectionIsChanged:, the purpose of which I can't figure out. Thanks, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Spec-how-to-select-contents-of-TextModel-on-focus-tp4… Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Memory Leak with Zodiac?
by CHRIS BAILEY Jan. 25, 2013

Jan. 25, 2013

I'm having a little trouble with a possible memory leak with Zodiac. I'm running Pharo 1.4 Summer on Centos 6.3/Fedora 18 for deploy/dev. The plugin is using libssl.so.0.9.8, and I also seem to have another version kicking about which uses libssl.so.6 and am not really sure where I got that from. It may be an older one from the http://code.google.com/p/squeakssl/ site. Both have the same effect, i.e. when running 100 timesRepeat: [ ZnClient new url: 'https://www.google.com'; get ] VIRT and RES memory both go up about 70mb, but just using http doesn't accumulate any. I tried it in Pharo 2.0 which was the same, but the new NBCog doesn't include the libSqueaKSSL.so so I was only copying it over. Has anyone used it successfully in the same environment? I'll try it on Ubuntu when I get a chance. Thanks Chris

Is there a platform independent way to launch a web browser from Pharo?
by Andy Burnett Jan. 23, 2013

Jan. 23, 2013

I want to use Pharo's new OAuth capabilities to access google's spreadsheets. However, I don't want to build a webapp, I just want to authenticate, and then pull the data down into Pharo. In order to do this, I need to initiate a session, with a web browser. Do I have to use OSProcess for this, or is there a mechanism already built in? Cheers Andy

Hi, i adopted a Ruby implementation (taken from Exploring Everyday Things with R and Ruby by Sau Sheong Chang) of Craig Raynolds Boids Simulation in Pharo Smalltalk using Athens Canvas.

StHub code browser feature
by Bernat Romagosa Jan. 22, 2013

Jan. 22, 2013

Hi! I remember the first time we could take a peek at SmalltalkHub there was a beautiful online code browser in it. Is re-adding it planned in the future? I found it really useful to take a look at projects before installing them in my image. Cheers! Bernat. -- Bernat Romagosa.
