WebDAV is basically HTTP with some extras. There exists some old client code in Zinc-WebDAV but that has not yet been ported to FS.

I would guess some ZINC adapter which communicates with an FileSystem behind :) Ben did an FTPServer implementation[1] in a similar fashion, where the server uses a FileReference as source and operates on that. The advantage is that you can then plug in any other file system behind. The same would go for a WebDAV reader, implement a FileSystemStore for that format and everybody can profit directly from it ;) [1] https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/FTP-Server/

[ I still am not accepted to the mailing list to POST ... ] Just looking in Pharo 2.0 release on Unicode handling today ... The class comment for UTF8DecomposedTextConverter says "An UTF8DecomposedTextConverter converts from decomposed UTF8 using the UnicodeCompositionStream." I don't see UnicodeCompositionStream ... at least not in this One-Click image today ... I also wonder why we do not have more of a parallel in the BOM methods for the utf8 and utf16 Converter classes to ensure converter instances have polymorphic behavior ... even such simple accessors as BOM value methods are not implemented ... but one class has a >>nextPut... method that is doing a BOM check each time, so it is not just avoiding a method call here if that was the issue, I suppose ... I do use Unicode every day in my Japanese app's and this mismatch across converters looks as if it would bite someone eventually ... Or no ? Maybe I am missing something obvious ... Btw, are we safe to assume that no one in India (or elsewhere with IT shops) is still using utf32 ? On 14 March 2013 21:28, Esteban A.

WebDav

by phil＠highoctane.be

How would one implement WebDAV on a Pharo 2.0 image? I saw several projects for Squeak but wonder what the best approach would be. Phil

Re: [Pharo-users] Glorp + Postgres array type

by Guillermo Polito

Hi Chris, I'm not really sure Glorp supports that... but at least I can try to give a look at how the driver responds to it, so: - Which driver are you using? OpenDBX or the native postgres one? - can you provide me some script to setup the problem? I'm not really an expert on postgresql specifics :) On Sun, Mar 17, 2013 at 11:46 AM, Chris <cpmbailey(a)btinternet.com> wrote: > Hi, does anyone know if Glorp supports the array type in Postgres?

As I said previously, we are encountering issues with the deployment of the website allowing to register.
