LabelModel has #emphasis: LabelModel new emphasis: #(bold); label: 'bold'; openWithSpec TextModel accepts Text: TextModel new text: 'bold' asText allBold, (' red' asText makeAllColor: Color red); openWithSpec TextInputFieldModel will most likely require #whenBuiltDo: and Morphic hacking.

Slides online: "Perfection & Feedback Loops" talk from esug

by Marcus Denker

Hi, At ESUG last Friday I gave a talk "Perfection & Feedback Loops or: why worse is betterâ, I was asked for the slides. They are now online: http://www.slideshare.net/MarcusDenker/perfection-feedback-loops-or-why-wor… As the slides do not contain much (just headlines), I created a special âAnnotatedâ version with links and some comments so one can follow better: http://marcusdenker.de/talks/16ESUG/FeedbackLoopsAnnotated.pdf PDF and .key file are there, too: http://marcusdenker.de/talks/16ESUG/ (the .key file contains the embedded videos shown). A video of the presentation should be available soon. Marcus

THANKS for the feedback. Normally we talked about it with andrei and doru at ESUG. Can you check if this was fixed in Pharo 60 because someone told me that it was but I'm not sure.

UFFI cleanup of externally allocated memory (was Re: UFFI const, unsigned, opaque-ish types)

by Ben Coman

Referring to the example show_clang_version() below, cleanup is done with clang_disposeString(). How does UFFI hook into the object finalisation mechanism to call this when the object is garage collected. My searches result mostly in info on weak collections and its not clear how this translates to FFI. Some detail on this would be useful for the FFI manual . cheers -ben On Thu, Sep 1, 2016 at 12:59 AM, Ben Coman <btc(a)openinworld.com> wrote: > For this definition pulled from a library header file... > typedef struct { > const void *data; > unsigned private_flags; > } CXString; > > which is used with a helper function to get a usable string like... > void show_clang_version(void) > { CXString version = clang_getClangVersion(); > printf("%s\n", clang_getCString(version)); > clang_disposeString(version); > } > > ==> 'Debian clang version 3.5.0-10 (tags/RELEASE_350/final) (based on > LLVM 3.5.0)' > > > So I defined... > FFIExternalStructure subclass: #CXString > instanceVariableNames: '' > classVariableNames: '' > package: 'LibCLang' > > and ignoring the const as advised in the manual [1], I try... > CXString class >> fieldsDesc > ^ #( > void *data; > unsigned private_flags; > ) > > but... > CXString rebuildFieldAccessors. > ==>Error: Unable to resolve external type: unsigned > > I also tried "unsigned int private_flags;" > but get the same error.

Spec Text Emphasis

by Sean P. DeNigris

Is there a way to change the emphasis of Spec text (TextModel/TextInputModel, or even LabelModel - I would trade edit-ability for styling)? The following successfully added the attribute to the text, but it didn't display in Spec: checkbox whenActivatedDo: [ self textModel text: (self textModel text addAttribute: TextEmphasis struckOut) ]. Thanks! ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Spec-Text-Emphasis-tp4913688.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
