Right-click and tutorial

by David Harris

I reported a problem with the mouse right-click under Windows 7Â last January and the 30845 update still exhibits the same behavior. Selected Pharo Tutorials from the World menu. Expanded Pharo Syntax Tutorial. Clicked Welcome. Highlighted 'PharoTutorial next.' Right-click of mouse does nothing. Fortunately, Alt-D does perform the do-it action. Once the new tutorial window opens, then right-click works as advertised. It is just that first panel where it is non-functional. Unfortunately, that panel tells the user "right-click and choose 'do it (d)'"Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â

Can you try one thing: change: NBFFICallout>>foreignCall: aBlock callInfo := self newCallInfo. callInfo alignment: 16. asm performingCall: callInfo in: aBlock. while use: NativeBoostWin32>>stackAlignment ^ 1 and then swap values. And tell which case works and which is not (they both may not work though). Don't forget to restart image before trying to reset all generated code. (you can also use #optNoAlignment option while calling external function e.g. self nbcall: blah options: #(+optNoAlignment). I wanna know, who corrupts stack: external function or VM itself.

The thing is, my time is limited as well, and I just took 15 minutes to double-check that things work and to write an email to you. IMHO you should try the official way using the fresh download (like in the movie) and tell us whether that works or not and report back. For some reason, you seem to not want to do that, and then you say we don't want to help, strange...

" Please understand that we cannot solve local problems." Duh. Like I have never stripped or built a Smalltalk image over my decades as a corp contracting Smalltalker ( so not Pharo, 'natch ) Marcus : the problem occurred ; I don't see it explained. So Marcus, if you are OK, I won't look further. I have a lot on my plate otherwise today already ...

Robert, Please understand that we cannot solve local problems. Just download and extract http://files.pharo.org/platform/Pharo3.0-win.zip And run the Pharo.exe inside it, it should work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKokxrQtrg0 The Pharo.ini there does not contain any reference to sources: I am not saying that if it did, that would result in a problem, I just don't know. What I am saying is that if yours contains more than what is in the above, you are not using what we put in the download for 3.0 - and then there is a support problem.
