Zn maximumEntitySize
by Pierce Ng May 15, 2013

May 15, 2013

Hi, (Second try. Seems my first attempt went out at just around the time the previous list died.) I'm writing (what should become) a series of blog posts on fuzzing. My blog runs as a Zinc server delegate on Pharo. From source code, I see ZnMaximumEntitySize, ZnServer>>maximumEntitySize:, ZnConstants class>>defaultMaximumEntitySize, etc. Seems the setting doesn't? The following is my server: | s | s := ZnSingleThreadedServer on: 8082. s maximumEntitySize: 128. s delegate: (ZnValueDelegate with: [ :req | ZnResponse ok: (ZnEntity html: ZnConstants welcomePageHtml) ]). s logToTranscript. s start. I expected the following client to raise ZnEntityTooLarge, but it doesn't. Instead it works, and I see in the Transcript the request with all the $a in it. Am I reading the source wrong? ZnEasy get: ('http://127.0.0.1:8082/', (String new: 200 withAll: $a) asString) Incidentally, when I did the following on another machine, both client and server threw time-out exceptions: ZnEasy get: ('http://192.168.x.x:8082/', (String new: (16 * 1024 * 1024) withAll: $a) asString) -- Pierce Ng http://samadhiweb.com/blog/

success story: NTed
by Norbert Hartl May 15, 2013

May 15, 2013

I think my last post of this message fell into the time the old mailing list dies. So here it is again --- We (@2denker in cooperation with a local university) built a monitoring tool for disaster scenario recovery rehearsals. Several times a year universities, red cross, THW und hospitals are planning a rehearsal together. For this an environment is prepared for a simulated disaster (car accidents, explosions in civil areas, â¦). The local environment is prepared to look real as well as film make-up artist prepare people for injuries (broken legs, open head, â¦). The rehearsal should improve the coordination of several hospitals, firemenâ¦as well as the quickest possible treatment for the injured. One important part of the rehearsal is monitoring of what happens. This is achieved by installing a local position system and using our tool. Every injured person gets a wireless tablet. On the tablet there are UI elements that indicate treatment done to them. Whenever a doctor comes visiting the injured person activates the corresponding UI button. The events are transmitted to a server and are prepared for another analysis software. The tablet enables the HQ to make contact to individual persons or groups. The tablet measures times of needed treatments and instructs the injured to be dead if measurements weren't taken in time. Technically it is done in smalltalk solo. The server is a pharo image. It has - web admin interface with complex forms for managing injuries, injured, groups, etc. For this we used seaside because it is best suited for this job. Forms are done with magritte, magritte-bootstrap. The interface also displays the live incoming events and other data - a static file server that delivers static resources to client tablets - a websocket connector that is used by the clients to connect to the server - a http handler to export data to other analysis tools The client is done with amber smalltalk. It - loads the web page containing amber from the server - connects back to the server - downloads a UI spec for the injured using the tablet to display personalized UI elements - stores events on the tablet in case the injured is offline - measures times to instruct the injured If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Fwd: do:displayingProgress: Question/Problem
by Juan Ignacio Vaccarezza May 15, 2013

May 15, 2013

Hi all I detected a behavior and Im not sure how to classify it (most sure is ignorance :P). Maybe some one can explain me. Given the code: *Smalltalk allClasses do:[:aClass| (Delay forMilliseconds: 1) wait] displayingProgress:[:aClass| 'Processing ', aClass name].* (Which is the example on the Collection class) In 1.4 the result is a dialog that shows a progres bar titled with each classname In 2.0 the result is a dialog showing only a progress bar. Thanks in advance, Juan

Sounds most excellent! I do have some questions: 1) What datastore is used, both on the server as well as tablet ? 2) What is the OS of the tablet? 3) How smooth was the Amber development? Can you do remote debugging on the server? 4) How did you manage to convince the ones paying for the project, that it would be done in Smalltalk?! -Paul

the future of squeaksource
by Andrei Vasile Chis May 14, 2013

May 14, 2013

Hi all, Given that SmalltalkHub is now stable we were considering to discontinue SqueakSource. Our idea is to provide a grace period of a couple of months to allow the current active users to migrate their projects to the new service and then simply put squeaksource in read-only mode (simply exposing the directory structure and allowing downloads). What do you think about it ? Are there any good reasons to still keep SqueakSource alive? Cheers, The SCG Team

WideString and FTP Client
by Hilaire Fernandes May 13, 2013

May 13, 2013

Hello, I am using FTP Client to save xml file. Some of these files may be WideString, in that case the FTP Client fails. I got a ByteArray(Object)>>errorImproperStore The code snippet to save is like this (client is ftp client) readonlyStream := ReadStream on: stream contents. client putFileStreamContents: readonlyStream as: aFilename If I convert the content to ByteArray, in that case file is x4 times greater, which should not be the case. Enclosed PharoDebug Thanks Hilaire -- Dr. Geo http://drgeo.eu

I've updated nabble to work with the new users list. I'm not exactly sure what's going on with the dev list... is there a new url / email address? I tried http://lists.pharo.org/mailman/listinfo/pharo-project_lists.pharo.org, but got "No such list..." ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/New-list-s-tp4687029.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
