It was just an idea. Maybe something else will work, a "play" icon with a "page" or "print" icon. What is wise is that slightly different actions have slightly different icons. yes, but that means I need to take pixelimator and create an icon. A painful and not really compensating task. I can try it, with time (it is in my todo). but it will happen when it happens :) Esteban > > Cheers, > > Offray > > >

The danger sign isn't too appropriate. nope, the flags are gone for goodâ¦ they were ugly even before :) (and they have white borders so not good for dark theme) the sign Iâm using is a âwarningâ signâ¦ is kind of appropriate, but I can search for something less âbig". > and > > self halt. > > which gives a kind of strange circle isn't too nice either. is a breakpoint sign in Idea setâ¦ so againâ¦ is appropriate but probably to big or strong.

Wellâ¦ those are the ones I found more appropriate, I did not chose them random or without thought. But, I will do a re-passâ¦ and maybe I will modify some icon.

Re: [Pharo-users] mac address on windows

by Usman Bhatti

I succeeded to do it by encapsulating the C routine as a DLL and doing an FFI call from my image (as suggested by Guille). I also tried to perform the nativeboost call by creating my structures in Pharo. The function in Windows that can be used to retrieve mac address in Windows: GetAdaptersInfo <https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365917%28v=vs.85…> that accepts a PIP_ADAPTER_INFO <https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa366062(v=vs.85).…> structure. I subclassed NBExternalStructure to define this struct and the other used by it in the image but my NB call returned with 87 code (Invalid parameter) and it was impossible to debug. However, I would like to make this thing work to understand what went wrong. With ProcessWrapper, I could not load the classes essential for making the plugin work.

Re: [Pharo-users] [ANN] Idea icon pack now in Configuration Browser

by phil＠highoctane.be

While we are at it, the icon for methods with a self flag: #SomeSymbol is a bit hard.. Can't we have the flags back? The danger sign isn't too appropriate. and self halt. which gives a kind of strange circle isn't too nice either. Are there icons in the set that would fit better?

Problems in switching from Moose 5.0 (Pharo 3) to Moose 5.1 (Pharo 4)

by PBKResearch

I have been working with Moose 5.0 on a project involving natural language processing. I used TextLint to parse the input, just because it contained a set of parsers which gave output in a convenient form. I have read all about the virtues of Pharo 4, and decided to give it a try, so I set out to reproduce the earlier results. I have run into a number of problems - basically I haven't been able to get anywhere. I realise TextLint is rather antique, but basically as I use it it is just a set of PetitParser parsers, so I can't see a problem. I have boiled the problems down to a few test cases, not realistic bits of my work but just to show the essential points. 1. Environment: Windows 7 Professional (64 bit version). 2. Download and install latest Pharo 4 - Latest update: #40612. This is just to get an up to date VM. 3. Download latest Moose 5.1 image and unzip into same folder as Pharo 4. On opening the Moose 5.1 image it also shows Latest update: #40612. (I have to ignore Firefox's hysterical warnings that the INRIA site does not have a valid security certificate.) 4. Load TextLint into the image. Can't get 'ConfigurationofTextLint' to work, so load TextLInt-Model-JorgeRessia.225.mcz and TextLint-Tests-lr.166.mcz via the Monticello Browser. This is the same as I used in my earlier Moose 5.0 image, where it worked as expected. 5. Open a playground, enter: PPToken on: 'test'. and select 'Inspect it'. The inspector halts with message: 'MNU ByteString>>find AnySubstring:startingAt:' Basic Inspect works as expected. Does this look like the problem raised by Nicolas Lusa today? 6. Enter in the playground: word := (TLTextTokenizer parse: 'test' startingAt: #word) at: 1. (The tokenizer gives an array of tokens, so we need to select the first - and only - one.) Basic Inspect confirms that 'word' is a PPToken, as expected. 7. Enter in the playground: TLWord with: word. Select 'Do it'. The image becomes completely unresponsive, and appears to be in a tight loop. Only way out is to click the Windows red X and say yes to exit without saving. Restarting, get to the same point and select 'Debug it'. Trace it to TLSyntacticElement>>initializeWith: aToken, where the only line of code is: 'token := aToken'. Again a complete lockup. Sorry for the lengthy details; I just hope there is enough there to enable someone to diagnose the problem(s). Any help gratefully received. Meanwhile I am back to the Pharo 3 version. Thanks Peter Kenny

Re: [Pharo-users] Woden-Roassal pharo5 inspector bugs

by Alexandre Bergel

Hi Nicolas, > I just noticed that with today's pharo5 image the inspector breaks if Woden-Roassal is in the image. > The reason is that there is a recursive call to String>>#findAnySubStr: startingAt: . This is caused by the deprecation of such method then defined as String>>#findAnySubstring: startingAt: . > The first call gets the String>>#findAnySubStr: startingAt: which gives the warning and calls ByteString>>#findAnySubstring: startingAt: (in Woden-Roassal package) which calls String>>#findAnySubStr: startingAt: and so on. Argâ¦ I personally use Moose for my own development. This is the reason of this failure. I will ask to the moose community whether we can move to Pharo 5. > Now my question is, do you plan on moving Woden to Pharo5?
