Storm game engine bug
by Jacob Wagner April 13, 2013

April 13, 2013

If I run the following code in one of the latest pharo 2.0 release images: ConfigurationOfStorm project lastVersion load (which loads version 0.2 of storm). I get a ton of debug dialogs that pop open saying: "MessageNotUnderstood: StormObject class" (in the stderr file i see this, many times) StormObject class(Object)>>doesNotUnderstand: #eventPossiblyChanged: WeakMessageSend>>value: WeakMessageSend>>cull: WeakMessageSend>>cull:cull: WeakAnnouncementSubscription>>deliver: in Block: [action cull: anAnnouncement cull: announcer] BlockClosure>>on:do: BlockClosure>>on:fork: in Block: [Processor terminateActive]. Configuration 0.1 works for me. My platform is windows 7. I also get this error when loading any of the last 4 mcz packages in storm-core from monticello after loading configuration 0.1. Thanks for any help with this issue as although I'll be playing around with storm 0.1, i'd like to have the latest code working too to work with more examples. -Jacob -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Storm-game-engine-bug-tp4680740.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Specifying a package version in a Configuration
by Torsten Bergmann April 12, 2013

April 12, 2013

Dont know if there is something by default. But you may be able to use a #postLoadDoIt to be called when loading is finished (your project and dependencies) and then use Gofer to update the dependency to the latest packages. Something like: spec for: #'common' do: [ "postload" spec postLoadDoIt: #postloadForCore:package:. ... ] And then in the postload method: postloadForCore: loader package: packageSpec Transcript show: 'This is called after loading and we use Gofer to update some packages'. Gofer loadWhatever ... But maybe this is too late for you in the loading process. Dont know if one can specify a postload for a dependency. bye T.

Slot Image
by Paul Davidowitz April 12, 2013

April 12, 2013

I loaded the squeaksource PlayOut repo into a Pharo2 image, but I don't think it loaded cleanly, and Nautilus browser isn't cooperating. Besides waiting for Pharo3, what should I do to look at a nice slot image? Thanks, -Paul

Specifying a package version in a Configuration
by Bernat Romagosa April 12, 2013

April 12, 2013

Hi list! How would one load a specific version of a dependence from within a configuration? For instance, imagine I want to load Iliad from its Metacello config, but after that I want to load a more updated version of a specific package. Something like: spec project: 'Iliad' with: '0.9.1.2'; project: 'Iliad' package: 'Iliad-Core' with: 'Iliad-Core0.9.1.2-NicolasPetton.83' I hope I made myself clear. Thanks a lot! Bernat. -- Bernat Romagosa.

[GSoC] Call for students
by Janko MivÅ¡ek April 11, 2013

April 11, 2013

Dear Students, Now it is your turn! You will have to register in our website first [1], put there some information, show interest for the projects and contact the project mentors. After the registration step you will get all the mentors information in order to contact them. By pressing the button on the project, you will show your interest. This is not something formal yet. Of course you can propose your own project too. In this case write a proposal in a format other projects have and send it to admins (see the email on the bottom). Our mentors will vote for the most interesting projects and in the middle of the voting Google will tell us, how many projects will actually be funded. Voting will happen in May, with final results expected at the end of May. At that time you will finally know if you are accepted or not. Of course, there can be many students interested per project. This means that interest for this project is high, but on the other side a chance that you will be chosen is lower. It is up to you to convince a mentor that you are the best! Note also that the Ideas page is deprecated. On ideas page just the project ideas were collected. Now, we are preparing the real projects. So, please from now on always refer to this link for the projects: http://gsoc2013.esug.org/projects So, your initial steps are: 1. Register on our special Smalltalk GSoC website (with your Google account!): http://gsoc2013.esug.org/admin?view=loginGoogle 2. Edit your profile to get some more contact information for mentors to let you know, 3. Fulfill your brief Biography page (see Biography tab on profile), 4. Go to Projects page, choose up to three projects and click there 'I'm interested' button, 5. Contact and discuss with project mentors about your interest. Subscribe also to a special mailing list [2] where we will help you with further steps. Deadline: as soon as possible, because the deadline to register on official GSoC website [3] is 3.May, which is, well, soon! But about that later... Finally, we will really appreciate if you can help us to distribute this call for students. One of our goals is to increase the Smalltalk community. Those who have access to universities can distribute this among the students. Distribute also our poster [4] in many languages, English one attached. [1] http://gsoc2013.esug.org [2] Students mailing list: http://groups.google.com/group/smalltalk-gsoc-students [3] Official GSoC website http://www.google-melange.com [4] Poster in PDF and image format, in many languages http://gsoc2013.esug.org/poster Good luck!

Which version of PetitParser should i use in Pharo 2.0?
by MartinW April 11, 2013

April 11, 2013

I currently load the PetitParser Configuration proposed in the "unverified" tab of ConfigurationBrowser but i also saw some other versions on Smalltalkhub for example (the Moose version for example: http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~Moose/PetitParser) While the version from the ConfigurationBrowser seems to work without problems, it loads with Warnings and the UI does not work. Is there a better version?
