Deprecator

by Camille Teruel

Hello Pharo users, I'm pleased to announce the release of Deprecator. It's a prototype of a small tool that permits you to deprecate method by annotating them with a <deprecated: ...> pragma. This pragma takes a rewrite expression as argument that specifies how to rewrite the message send to the deprecated method. If such a deprecated method is executed, a warning is thrown and a debugger opens. This debugger has a little 'Rewrite' button that permits to rewrite the sending method according to the rewrite expression and then resume the execution with the new rewritten sending method :) The implementation is a proof-of-concept and is a bit hacky here and there, but it works. Example: You have a class C with a method that you deprecate. Its rewrite expression tells that if it's executed as the result of a message send of the form: <receiver> deprecatedMethodArg1: <arg1> arg2: <arg2>, this message send should be rewritten to: <receiver> replacementMethodArg1: <arg2> arg2: <arg1>. Note you can change the order of arguments or even the receiver. C>>deprecatedMethodArg1: o1 arg2: o2 <deprecated: '`@receiver replacementMethodArg1: `@arg2 arg2: `@arg1'> ^ #deprecated C>>replacementMethodArg1: o1 arg2: o2 ^ #replacement C>>senderMethod ^ self deprecatedMethodArg1: 1 + 1 arg2: 2 + 2. Then if you execute C new senderMethod, and then click on the "Rewrite" button of the debugger, then sending method is rewritten to: C>>senderMethod ^ self replacementMethodArg1: 2 + 2 arg2: 1 + 1. and the result is #replacement. The repo is on sSmalltalkHub: MCHttpRepository location: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/CamilleTeruel/Deprecator/main' user: '' password: '' I hope for comments, feature suggestions, code reviews, contributors, etc :) BTW, if you have a better name for this project let me know! For example, I thought about Ammonite because it's an extinct animal (analogy with deprecated) and it fits the sea naming theme. Cheers, Camille

Does it work in 3.0? Best place to load stuff from? I agree with you. Damien C made a lot of changes to make sure that we can run the image on readonly folder. Because you want to have a image in /usr/bin/ whatever and load your scripts. About coral I think that starting to use it is worth. Right you can launch scripts and even define classes. To me coral is orthogonal to the scripts. I was thinking that we would have a much better support for OSProcess (via NB). To me this is the most important point. Better OS integration. Having an alternate syntax for methods is secondary or less priority. Stef

I've used GST in the past for simple scripting too.

I run server-side JavaScript but would not dream of using JS to do jobs ! Humour : for years the command-line params for VW Smalltalk were some kind of unpublished hush-hush secret for build mavens and image-stripping gurus on hp/ux servers. Not so for Gnu Smalltalk ;-) There is always APL ;-) On 24 July 2014 07:37, Norbert Hartl <norbert(a)hartl.name> wrote: > What are you using to do jobs on the commandline.

Sick of sed and Perl ? There is fun in Object Icon and Rebol ( r3 or Red ) ( Icon, UNICON or pythonic Converge PL.) And I even use xcurl scripts for MIT Curl ( www.curl.com ) (now SCSK Curl at www.curlap.com ) But Object Icon has to be built at the command line ;-) I gave up on Io and have been neglecting Falcon PL The downside to Curl is that it used Regexp ; rebol Parse is such a treat !

Commandline

by Norbert Hartl

What are you using to do jobs on the commandline. I'm sick of doing bash and sed,perl,jq,... stuff. What would be the quickest start when using a normal image? And what if I want to give coral a start. Does it work in 3.0? Best place to load stuff from? thanks, Norbert
