Deleting an instance
by Ichiseki Sept. 16, 2015

Sept. 16, 2015

I have the following question. I have created several instances of StringMorph. However those instances are not "available" to be handled by the halo. When I do a right click, the World menu informs me that those instance exist. Moreover, if I do StringMorph allInstances and printit, the array shows those instances. But I want to destroy them, delete them. Because even after closing the image they are still there. txs!

[Ann] Phratch 4.1 is here !
by jannik laval Sept. 16, 2015

Sept. 16, 2015

Based on Phratch 4.0 we made some bug fixes and added new small features. Phratch is now on top of Pharo 4.0. The new features are: - languages are more stable. Thanks to the community for the feedback and the enhancement of the language files. - Add a "follow" option that allows one to see which block is currently executed. Phratch 4.1 is already available on phratch.com. If you detect an issue, you can submit a description on https://github.com/janniklaval/phratch/issues And you can always download the latest build on the continuous integration server: https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/view/Phratch/ See you on phratch.com -- ~~Jannik Laval~~ Enseignant-chercheur IUT LumiÃ¨re <http://iut.univ-lyon2.fr/>, UniversitÃ© Lyon LumiÃ¨re <http://www.univ-lyon2.fr/> laboratoire DISP <http://disp-lab.fr/> http://www.jannik-laval.eu http://www.phratch.com http://www.approchealpes.info

ShouldNotImplement: #add: should not have been implemented in Array
by Offray Vladimir Luna CÃ¡rdenas Sept. 15, 2015

Sept. 15, 2015

Hi, I was coding today and after creating a method with only the name and a comment and trying to save it I started to get this message: "ShouldNotImplement: #add: should not have been implemented in Array". I don't see anything related to my code that can be generating this. The environment is still working, but the message is annoying. Any pointers on how to solve it? Cheers, Offray

load directive
by Usman Bhatti Sept. 15, 2015

Sept. 15, 2015

Hi, I'm trying to see packages loaded by Metacello. So, in the past, I used to do: (ConfigurationOfXXX project version: #stable) record loadDirective to see the list of packages resolved and loaded. But in Pharo 4.0, the list of packages is empty. How can I obtain the list of packages with the loadDirective? tx in advance. usman P.S: I know GT-Inspector provides a map and a list of packages resolved "statically". I'm looking to see how the loaded packages are resolved by Metacello at "runtime".

Ecstatic ETSite>>generateHtml file copy philosphy
by Ben Coman Sept. 15, 2015

Sept. 15, 2015

I am having a look into Ecstatic.. What is the philosophy behind the comment in ETSite>>generateHtml ... "We copy all input files into the output directory to not make the input dirty. We copy all because the site will need not only pillar files but also other resources such as images or css files." That is, what is it that makes the input dirty? Also, ETSite>>configuration has the lines... cocoon inputFiles: (self outputDirectory allChildren select: [ :each | each extension = 'pillar' ]). which seems strange to be taking input files from the output directory. cheers -ben

Long text entry field
by Offray Vladimir Luna CÃ¡rdenas Sept. 15, 2015

Sept. 15, 2015

Hi all, Thanks to the Stephan's advices, I'm making progress in my small planning application and hopefully today I will have a working prototype. Now I would like to add some properties to the PlanColumn class, one of them is a long description of what the day is gonna be about. I can fill it using TextEntreDialogWindow, as in Stephan's code but I would like to have a more apt widget for long text. Unfortunately I can't find it by myself. Any pointers to where is it? How can I create a widget for a long text entry? Cheers, Offray

Mocking ZnClient
by Damien Cassou Sept. 14, 2015

Sept. 14, 2015

Hi, I need to write unit tests for code that fetches data on the web through ZnClient. Is there a way to temporarily replace all creations of ZnClient instances by instances of another class that will reply with fixed results without fetching on the web? I already wrote something like that for the Pharo launcher. I'm now looking for something that already exists outside so I don't have to extract this into a new library by myself. -- Damien Cassou http://damiencassou.seasidehosting.st "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another without losing enthusiasm." --Winston Churchill
