[DOC] Building and deploying your first web app with Pharo

by Sven Van Caekenberghe

Hi, I wrote a new tutorial, "Building and deploying your first web app with Pharo - Understanding HTTP fundamentals through Zinc HTTP Components". By chronologically following the development process, you will see a small web app growing from something trivial to the final result. Finally, we will save our source code in a repository and deploy for real in the cloud. http://zn.stfx.eu/zn/build-and-deploy-1st-webapp Pharo 2.0/3.0 features such as Nautilus, SmalltalkHub, Metacello Configurations, Zeroconf Scripts and of course Zinc HTTP Components are used while highlighting traditional strengths such as incremental, live & interactive development in a rich environment. Enjoy, Sven PS: Feedback is welcome, the source document lives here https://github.com/svenvc/zinc/blob/master/build-and-deploy-1st-webapp/buil… - pull requests appreciated. -- Sven Van Caekenberghe Proudly supporting Pharo http://pharo.org http://association.pharo.org http://consortium.pharo.org

SerialPlugin

by Bernat Romagosa

Hi list, Any chance to get SerialPlugin working in Pharo 2.0 under Debian? I tried to follow the instructions in http://car.mines-douai.fr/2013/01/serialplugin-in-the-pharo-vm/ but I didn't succeed. The second step already failed giving me the folowing error: Error: Could not find accessor for variable named "bytesToAllocate" in NBUnixExternalHeapManager>>#mmapLength:prot:flags:into: Thanks! -- Bernat Romagosa.

No, in my case a test needs two participants that communicate with each other. The first test case checks the validity of the request. The second test case checks the validity of the reply. So I need to transfer both communication ends to the next test case. For now I've created a TestScenario class that keeps both parts just so I can return it as a single value. That is not optimal because the number of combinations of objects I need to return together will be quite big and creating a class for each of them is not good. Using TestResources is not optimal either because I need to manually reset them which defeats their purpose.

SetUp and tearDown are useful to isolate a single test case. When using #given: you include one test case into another. Meaning the setUp and tearDown needs to surround the combination of both and not each individual.
