ZdcSocketStream dnu #position
by Paul DeBruicker June 30, 2013

June 30, 2013

Hi - I've got both Zinc and Zodiac loaded into a Pharo 2 image. When I do a ZnClient #get: to an http connection I'm getting the dnu mentioned in the subject of this email. The message send that causes it is in ZnStringEntity>>#readFrom: ZnNetworkingUtils default socketStreamClass prints: 'ZdcSocketStream' Changing that to 'SocketStream' like so: ZnNetworkingUtils default socketStreamClass: SocketStream makes everything work . Just wanted to let you know Paul

PBE Suggestion: Minor improvement? to pharo.sh
by Kevin Cole June 30, 2013

June 30, 2013

Hi, Given that I now have both the newer VM and image from the Ubuntu Pharo PPA, and the VM and image from PBE, opening a file browser and clicking on an image saved from PBE fails, because it wants to open the newer VM. No problem. I'll just use pharo.sh from the CLI. Oh, wait. It always wants to use Contents/Resources/pharo.image. No problem. Fix pharo.sh so that it accepts an optional parameter specifying the image name to open, sans path and ".image". Not especially brilliant, and bash experts might have a better way (or caveats as to why this is a bad idea), but now I have something that behaves, with very few changes to the original pharo.sh: "./pharo.sh" opens the default Contents/Resources/pharo.image "./pharo.sh myPharo" opens Contents/Resources/myPharo.image I've posted my minor variation on the distributed pharo.sh below: ____________________________________________________________ #!/bin/sh # path ROOT=`dirname $0` BASE="$ROOT/Contents/Linux" IMAGES="$ROOT/Contents/Resources" IMAGE="${1:-pharo}" # execute exec "$BASE/squeakvm" \ -plugins "$BASE" \ -encoding latin1 \ -vm-display-X11 \ "$IMAGES/$IMAGE.image"

How to do this in Pharo 2?
by Donald June 30, 2013

June 30, 2013

Logs uses a package called Bindings-Core-tbn.1 that has this description: /Name: Bindings-Core-tbn.1// //Author: tbn// //Time: 11 July 2012, 9:46:06.521 am// //UUID: 2c28d2f3-610f-a54d-82b1-f421a40394ce// //Ancestors: // // //Initial version from Benoit, see http://lists.gforge.inria.fr/pipermail/pharo-project/2012-July/067412.html/ It allows me to do things like this: Transcript show: 'Today is %1' bindWith: 'the first day of the rest of your life'. Is there a better way to do this in Pharo 2?. An hour of poking around and no joy. Thanks. -- Donald [|] A bad day in [] is better than a good day in {}

unstable build
by Camillo Bruni June 29, 2013

June 29, 2013

I am not very happy with the current build it seems to be quite random when it comes to test results. I ran the tests multiple times and I get different outcomes each time. That said, I need somebody to pair program with me on the monkey since there is currently a non-deterministic bug present that prevents the tool from running properly. anyone in?

Possible problem with WAFileMetadataLibrary
by Thushar G R June 29, 2013

June 29, 2013

Hi, I was using WAFileMetadataLibrary and i found a possible issue with* **addFileAt: aPath relativeToRootDirectory: relativeRootDirectory*. The problem i encountered is that some css with(../img/someImage.png) was getting pointed towards *http://localhost:8080/files/img/someImage.png* rather than *http://localhost:8080/files/MyWAFileMetadataLibrary/img/someImage.png* upon further looking into the code i found that in *addFileAt: aPath relativeToRootDirectory: relativeRootDirectory.* * * there is a line *relativeFilepath := relativeFilepath replaceAll: pathSeparator with:'/'. * * * here i found that the path with '\' *(im in wondows)* will not be replaced with '/'. so i had override and change the line to *relativeFilepath := relativeFilepath replaceAll: pathSeparator first with: $/.* * * which worked for me, and the calls from css got pointed to *http://localhost:8080/files/MyWAFileMetadataLibrary/img/someImage.png.* * * Could anyone in the community pls verify it and let me know if i am not further messing things up , and if its ok, pls could you correct *WAFileMetadaLibrary *accordinly? Thanks in Advance, G R Thushar PS: I think my mails are not reaching you. So i am posting the same in stackoverlow too. I hope thats ok. * *

how to use RBClassRegexRefactoring in Pharo 2 ?
by Paul DeBruicker June 28, 2013

June 28, 2013

Hi- In Nautilus when I try to use the 'Class Regex' menu item in Pharo 2 20605 I get an error that RBRegexClassRefactoring is an existing class in the system. In earlier Pharo versions you would select that menu item, make your changes, save them and then the refactoring would run. How do you do it now? Thanks Paul

implementing #release in a domain object
by Paul DeBruicker June 28, 2013

June 28, 2013

Lets say I'm modeling a navy that is comprised of many ships each with their own soldiers and jobs. If I want one of the ships to be GC'd do I need to implement #release in the soldier and job objects and send it to each of those soldiers and jobs that live and work on the ship I want GC'd or is removing the references between the ship and the navy enough to have the whole ship (including its soldiers and jobs) GC'd?

Package browser?
by Rob Vens June 28, 2013

June 28, 2013

I am attempting to do the Pharo by Example book, but a package browser (which is used in the examples) is not in the 1.1.1 or 1.2 image. Should I still use categories? If I create a package in Monticello browser I am not able to add classes or anything (not as far as I could see). Just starting out using Pharo, so apologies if these questions are already answered elsewhere.
