Re: [Pharo-users] CDB project

by Sven Van Caekenberghe

I am not sure I understand the question correctly, but the closest equivalent in Pharo is readInto: collection startingAt: offset count: requestedCount "Read requestedCount elements into collection starting at offset, returning the number of elements read, there could be less elements available." There are others, but this is a fundamental one. > On 04 Mar 2016, at 15:43, Nicolas Berveglieri <nicolas.berve(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello, we're looking for a function similar to the function read, having this prototype: > > public int read(byte[] b, > int off, > int len) > throws > IOException > (found there: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/io/InputStream.html) > > cheers, > Nicolas.

Hello, we're looking for a function similar to the function read, having this prototype: public int read(byte[] b, int off, int len) throws IOException <https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/io/IOException.html> (found there: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/io/InputStream.html) cheers, Nicolas.

Understanding Slang for building a compiler to C++

by Dimitris Chloupis

Hey pharo experts I am interesting into studying how Slang works for making a compiler that takes pharo code and turns it to C++ code, my questions is where to find Slang , how to extract the code that compiles Slang to C and study it as an example for making my own compiler for C++.

Re: [Pharo-users] PharoLauncher eventual slowdown

by Peter UhnÃ¡k

Yeah I saw that when he was in Prague (incidentally that's where my launcher slowdown started :)).
