Problem with bugtracker
by Mark Rizun Jan. 5, 2015

Jan. 5, 2015

Hello, While ago, I've resolved an issue 14254 <https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/14254/AST-method-replaceWith-does-not-cha…> and validation was successful. Since that time, I didn't check this issue as was busy. Turned out after successful validation, there was a failure, which I can't take a look at, because it's not found (404 error). Just wanted this slice to be included in Pharo4. Best, Mark -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Problem-with-bugtracker-tp4797910.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[story] using the inspector to debug a metacello configuration problem
by Tudor Girba Jan. 4, 2015

Jan. 4, 2015

Hi, Happy New Year! The GTInspector reaches its full potential when it is being extended to meet custom needs. I will try to document more scenarios to show how this works in practice and how programming changes as a result. Here is a story that describes a session of debugging a Metacello configuration problem: http://www.humane-assessment.com/blog/identifying-a-configuration-problem-w… Cheers, Doru -- www.tudorgirba.com "Every thing has its own flow"

[ANN] Spec documentation in PFTE book finished
by Johan Fabry Jan. 2, 2015

Jan. 2, 2015

Hi all, I am happy to announce that Ben and I finished the documentation of Spec for the Pharo For The Enterprise book. This documentation is up-to-date with the latest version of Spec, and is focused towards people wanting to use it and even extend it (in contrast to the academic papers which are â¦ academic ;-) ). I hope that this text will help all the people that are building UIs in Pharo, and it will clear up any doubts that they may have. The chapter is available in source form from the GitHub project of the PFTE book: https://github.com/SquareBracketAssociates/PharoForTheEnterprise-english The easiest way to read the chapter is from the continuous integration server, which produces a html file of the chapter here: https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/PharoForTheEnterprise/lastSucces… (The same server also produces pdf and markdown files, but there are some strange artifacts there, currently. I guess this will be cleared up in the future) We tried our best to make it understandable and complete, but if you have any doubts or comments please do not hesitate to let us know !! Ben prefers Github apparently, but if you are oldskool like me you can also send a mail (privately or to the mailing list). Now it's time to build some cool user interfaces! :-) ---> Save our in-boxes! http://emailcharter.org <--- Johan Fabry - http://pleiad.cl/~jfabry PLEIAD lab - Computer Science Department (DCC) - University of Chile

PetitParser and PPBrowser in Pharo 3.0
by Hartmut Jan. 1, 2015

Jan. 1, 2015

Hi to all, I'm working with PetitParser in a Pharo 3 image. Until now I had to do without the PPBrowser which I loved in Pharo 2. On forum.world.st I now found the hint by Jan Kurs to install all of the Petit suite: > "Configuration should be loaded like this:" > Gofer new smalltalkhubUser: 'Moose' project: 'PetitParser'; > configurationOf: #PetitParser; load. > > "All the petit parser suite:" > ConfigurationOfPetitParser loadDevelopment. Apart from the fact that this installed a real lot into my image, I notice the following problems in PPBrowser: 1. The map of none of the 18 parsers included, is displayed (it becomes red crossed). However, this was the most useful part of it 2. My interrelated parsers consist of a tree of parsers where each leave has its own start clause. They define related languages. It makes no sense to add a /start/ clause to the root. However, without such a meaningless /start/ clause, only the /source/ is displayed, neither /graph, example, first/ or /follow/ of any clause. (this can be reproduced when you move PPJsonGrammar>>start to PPJsonParser) I like the style of having a grammar class above a parser (or compiler) class. This is as seen in most of the accompanying parsers. My preferred petit parser style comprises: a) keeping grammar rules (without ==>) in the upper classes of the grammar hierarchy tree, such that we find the complete grammar there (without the /start/ clause). b) keeping replacement rules (using ==>) as low as possible the grammar hierarchy tree c) writing the start clause to the class that is actually called. (this gives different entries in a grammar allowing for different languages with grammar subsets) Is there an idea to have 1. and/or 2. resolved? Hartmut -- Hartmut Krasemann?

PetitParser problem with plus
by James Foster Jan. 1, 2015

Jan. 1, 2015

There is something about plus that I donât understand. In the following code if I parse for (x , x) then I get what I expect. If I parse for (x plus) then the image hangs. What am I doing wrong? James | a notA x y | a := $a asParser. notA := $a asParser negate star flatten. x := a / notA. y := x , x. âworks fineâ y := x plus. ânever finishesâ ^y end parse: 'abâ.

Implementation of book editor for PillarHub application
by Flayer Jan. 1, 2015

Jan. 1, 2015

Hello everyone! My name is Maxim Skripnik, and I wish to tell you about my first project that deals with Pharo and Pillar world. To make a long story short, it's about extension of functional for web-application called "PillarHub" that is written fully on Pharo with Seaside's tools. In substance, today it's a editor and viewer for articles written on Pillar markup but I will add opportunity to compile complete books from them. Anyway, if you are interested in it, you may find full description * here <http://pillarhub.pharocloud.com/hub/MaximSkripnik/bookcompilerintro> *. There, on PillarHub, I will report on progress, so check for updates there. Feel free to comment and share your ideas with me, I would be very glad to see some. Thank you for your attention! -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Implementation-of-book-editor-for-PillarHub-applicati… Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
