Hi, I am on an Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and I trying to install and run pharo. I follow the Ubuntu ppa instructions. I also install lib32z1 lib32ncurses5 lib32bz2-1.0 (ia32-libs from the readme file in zip archive is not available anymore) then the command pharo return a polite : could not find display driver vm-display-X11; either: - check that /usr/lib/pharo-vm//vm-display-X11.so exists, or - use the '-plugins <path>' option to tell me where it is, or - remove DISPLAY from your environment. Abandon (core dumped) I confirm that vm-display-X11.so exists Any (french) one to help me ?

Is it possible to compile pillar documents under windows? I have no problem in doing that in my OSX machine, but I need it to do it in Windows and can't figure it out. Guess support is only for *NIX os? thanks in advance Nacho ----- Nacho Smalltalker apprentice.

Saving contents of a Playground

Hi, In Pharo 3 we had the option of saving the contents of a Workspace. Is this feature available in the Playground in Pharo 4? I search the forum but couldn't find an answer.

It seems you didn't read my full postâ¦ I did read it, it was well written and I agree with what you said. But you were too polite, you give him the benefit of the doubt. I don't think that I have to remind anyone of what ESUG means (now and in the past) for the larger Smalltalk community. I just do not even want to make that comparison, not even for the sake of the discussion. > Joachim > > Von: Sven Van Caekenberghe > Gesendet: âMontagâ, â19â. âJanuarâ â2015 â19â:â17 > An: Any question about pharo is welcome > > > > On 19 Jan 2015, at 17:48, jtuchel(a)objektfabrik.de wrote: > > > > All that's been said so far is that some people do not like the use of some military terms, no matter where they come from and whether people know what these mean or not.

DebrisDB Project published under the MIT License. This toolkit allows programmers to use the Glorp interface without a Glorp-system definition, and without needing any SQL servers up an running. If you use it right, you can back your application by Fuel files, SIXX files, any serializer, Gemstone, or Glorp/SQL, without modifying your application code. Therefore, it is perfect for prototyping concepts very quickly. ... See the project description for more information. Good Luck from the Debris Team!

Glorp on Pharo 4
by Torsten Bergmann Jan. 20, 2015

Jan. 20, 2015

Hi Craig, see below a quick guide. Tell me when it works. Someone should do a video from that... Thanks Torsten ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ For Windows: ============ - go to http://www.sqlite.org/download.html and retrieve sqlite-dll-win32-x86-3080800.zip - copy the included sqlite3.dll to the folder where your virtual machine (Pharo.exe) resides so it can be found by the NativeBoost wrapper later (as an alternative you can have in any folder that is accessible via PATH environment variable) - open a fresh Pharo4.0 image (here I use latest update: #40451 image) - load from ConfigurationBrowser: "Glorp" - load from ConfigurationBrowser: "NBSQLite3" - then open Monticello browser and select the repo for NBSQLite3, open it and load additionally "NBSQLite3-Glorp-TorstenBergmann.3" - create a package "Killerapp-Core" using Nautilus system browser - create a tag "Model" in this new package using Nautilus system browser - create a class Object subclass: #KillerAppUser instanceVariableNames: 'id username' classVariableNames: '' category: 'Killerapp-Core-Model' - click on the class in Nautilus browser and select "Refactoring" -> "Class Refactoring" and "Generate Accessors" to create accessor methods for the instance variables - create a package "Killerapp-Persistence" using Nautilus system browser - create a tag "Mappings" in this new package using Nautilus system browser DescriptorSystem subclass: #KillerAppDatabaseDescriptor instanceVariableNames: '' classVariableNames: '' category: 'Killerapp-Persistence-Mappings' - implement an instance side method in method category 'accessing' allTableNames ^ #('KILLERAPP_USER') - create an instance side method in category 'mapping-classes' constructAllClasses ^ super constructAllClasses add: KillerAppUser; yourself - implement an instance side method in method category 'mapping - classes' classModelForKillerAppUser: aClassModel #(#id #username) do: [ :each | aClassModel newAttributeNamed: each ] - create an instance side method in method category 'mapping - descriptors' descriptorForKillerAppUser: aDescriptor | table | table := self tableNamed: 'KILLERAPP_USER'. aDescriptor table: table. #(id username) do: [ :each | (aDescriptor newMapping: DirectMapping) from: each to: (table fieldNamed: each) ] - implement an instance side method in method category 'mapping - tables' tableForKILLERAPP_USER: aTable "Define the table KILLERAPP_USER" (aTable createFieldNamed: 'ID' type: platform sequence) isUnique: true; bePrimaryKey. (aTable createFieldNamed: 'USERNAME' type: (platform varchar: 20)) isUnique: true; beNullable: false. By having the descriptions set up you can now play with Glorp: |login accessor session| login := Login new. login host: ''. login databaseName: 'C:\db\killerapp.db'. login database: SQLite3Platform new. accessor := NBSQLite3DatabaseAccessor forLogin: login. accessor loginIfError: [ self error: 'unable to connect' ]. session := GlorpSession new. session system: (KillerAppDatabaseDescriptor forPlatform: login database). session accessor: accessor. "Create all tables (only to be done once)" session createTables. "Create a new user" session inUnitOfWorkDo: [ user := (KillerAppUser new) username: 'admin'. session register: user ]. Then you can use a tool like "SQLiteStudio" to open the database and check what is in the tables...

InfoWorld on Redline Smalltalk

One is for the browser and one is for the JVM. Amber and Redline are *nascent* projects. Hopefully, they will be ready to greet newcomers in the latter half of this year. People are working hard, so please be patient. The Redline project needs contributors. I urge people to step up. It would be tragic if this project failed. /We need a Smalltalk on the JVM!/ 2015 will the Year of Smalltalk.

OpenStreetMap integration
by Alexandre Bergel Jan. 20, 2015

Jan. 20, 2015

Dear All, This week end I have integrated the excellent work of Onil Goubier and Thierry Goubier. They have worked on a bridge between OpenStreetMap and Roassal. As a result, you can easily decorate a map with element describing metrics and properties of geolocation. Consider the following: I think the following screenshot should be self-explanatory: Below are some results of 10lines-long scripts. Seisms during the last 30 days: Refugies monitored by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees: We started to write a chapter for Agile Visualization. Here it is: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/31543901/AgileVisualization/OpenStreetM… Again, thanks Onil and Thierry. This is a very valuable contribution for the whole community! Cheers, Alexandre NB: Sorry for the cross-post, but I believe the content of this email goes well beyond to the Moose people interest. -- _,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;: Alexandre Bergel http://www.bergel.eu ^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;.
