Re: [Pharo-users] Call for feedbacks: Enterprise Pharo ePub version

by Mark Bestley

It would be OK to read with Calibre but it is designed as a reader so will allow some errors through which would affect other readers. The epubValidator is designed to find issues and so will show much more so it would be better to add that to your working process.

Re: [Pharo-users] How to load Glorp / SQLite3?

by Esteban A. Maringolo

It wasn't your mistake, there was an error that leaked into the script because of one of those "last minutes changes". My bad. However, as I told you in the #databases channel, but I'm replying here so everyone else knows, Glorp supports SQLite3 as one of its platforms and actually this port brings many corrections and modifications for such particular platform, but the SQLite3 driver in Pharo 5 isn't fully functional (aka, doesn't work) yet because of changes in the FFI of Pharo 5. Pierce, the developer of NB SQLite3 driver <http://www.samadhiweb.com/tags/sqlite> is helping us with getting the SQLite3 driver back to Pharo 5. This issue can be followed "live" in the https://pharoproject.slack.com/messages/databases/ channel. Regards! Esteban A.

How to load Glorp / SQLite3?

by Alistair Grant

Hi All, Thanks to Estaban and everyone involved in making Glorp available in Pharo 5.0. I'm trying to work my way through the examples in the Glorp book (https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/PharoBookWorkInProgress/lastSucc…) but, embarrassingly, haven't got past the first step. My understanding from the book is that I load Glorp with: Metacello new smalltalkhubUser: 'DBXTalk' project: 'Garage'; configuration: 'GarageGlorp'; version: #stable; load. I've also tried loading the Glorp package with: Gofer it url: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/Pharo/MetaRepoForPharo50/main'; configurationOf: 'Glorp'; loadStable but still aren't able to execute the first command in the book: GAGlorpAccessor beDefaultGlorpDriver since GAGlorpAccessor isn't in the image, or, later on: accessor := GarageDatabaseAccessor forLogin: login. accessor login. since GarageDatabaseAccessor also isn't in the image. (I was able to create the login object). What is the required sequence of Montacello / Gofer loads to be able to use Glorp with SQLite3? Thanks, Alistair (who is sure he has missed the obvious)

Re: [Pharo-users] What should I name my nested packages?

by Evan Donahue

Yes, that looks like it. Thanks. Relatedly, do I correctly infer that tags only organise /within/ packages, and so cannot be downloaded separately?

Re: [Pharo-users] [UFFI] Call a function where argument type is char ** (argv)

by Blondeau Vincent

TL;DR: How to pass as argument an array of Strings (char **) with Unified-FFI? Vincent De : Blondeau Vincent EnvoyÃ© : mercredi 25 mai 2016 13:58 Ã : Pharo Development List Objet : [UFFI] Call a function where argument type is char ** (argv) Hello, I have written a R bridge in Pharo and I would like to migrate it from NativeBoost to UFFI. Most of the changes are easy to do but I am stuck to a double pointer problem. I have to call the function: int Rf_initEmbeddedR(int argc, char ** argv). I know how to give the int but the char ** is a problem. It is an array of Strings. With NB, I managed to have this (working) code: "This is 32bit... too bad..." strings := OrderedCollection new. par := NativeBoost allocate: 4 * params size. params keysAndValuesDo: [ :i :each | | str | str := each asNBExternalString. strings add: str. par nbUInt32AtOffset: (i - 1) * 4 put: str value ]. self prim_initEmbeddedRargc: params size argv: par ] ensure: [ "Free the memory we allocated" par ifNotNil: [ par free ]. strings ifNotNil: [ strings do: [ :each | each free ] ] ] With a primitive call: Self nbCall: #(int Rf_initEmbeddedR(int argc, char *argv)) Do I still need to create my own array of strings or FFI creates it for me?
