GSoC Proposals as result of the 8th local Data Week
by Offray Vladimir Luna CÃ¡rdenas April 2, 2017

April 2, 2017

Hi, We made another data week (the 8th one), this time focused on introducing novices to Pharo and Grafoscopio to participate in the GSoC and now we have two proposals: * http://mutabit.com/repos.fossil/grafoscopio/doc/tip/Events/GSOC/2017-offray… * http://mutabit.com/repos.fossil/grafoscopio/doc/tip/Events/GSOC/2017-offray… both are related with Grafoscopio, but deal with different approaches (I thought that a project could have several students). Hopefully both can do it or the students will be able to pivot on the community binding month to other projects. Any comments are welcomed. GSoC can be an important catalyst for community building around Pharo. For example, now we are connecting better, the people that is interested with reproducible research and literate computing with ones that are interested the infrastructures that made them possible. Cheers, Offray

In the quest of Smacc idioms
by Stephane Ducasse April 2, 2017

April 2, 2017

Hi I'm trying to understand what are the idioms in Smacc when converting from ANTLR ######### the case of * ######################## Function = â(â (',' Arguments )* â)â should be transformed into Function : <name> "(" 'leftParen' _ArgumentsOption ")" 'rightParen' {{}} ; _ArgumentsOption : | Arguments ; Arguments : Expression 'argument' | Arguments "," Expression 'argument' ; Here since there is a recursion in Arguments the instance variable containing a list of argument will be added to the FunctionNode Pay attention that Expression 'argument' should not have a {{}} nor its parent rule. ######### the case of + ######################## Function = â(â Arguments + â)â should be transformed into Function : <name> "(" 'leftParen' _ArgumentsOption ")" 'rightParen' {{}} ; _ArgumentsOption : Arguments ; Arguments : Expression 'argument' | Arguments "," Expression 'argument' ; ######### the case of ? ######################## Function = â(â Arguments+ â)â should be transformed into Function : <name> "(" 'leftParen' _ArgumentsOption ")" 'rightParen' {{}} ; _ArgumentsOption : | Arguments ; Arguments : Expression 'argument' ; Is there a more compact way to express? Thierry do you have example of *, + , ? in the grammar? Stef

Sorry to be skeptical, but as much as I admire Richard Eng's work, since it is April 1st (which is April Fool's Day in the U.S.) I am a bit skeptical of this story. :>{ I hope it's true but .. mike

Morphic component to display images/pictures
by Peter Uhnak April 1, 2017

April 1, 2017

Hi, do we have a Morphic/Brick/whatever component for displaying pictures/images in Pharo? The "best" I found was GTInspector extension on PNG files, which provides scrollbars, however I would like to also have: 1) zooming with mousewheel (now it scrolls vertically) 2) dragging the image around to scroll both vertically and horizontally (now I have to use manually the scrollbars) 3) ideally also buttons like "show 1:1 size", "show fit to window" Do we have something like that? Thanks, Peter

Voyage, DateAndTime and UTC
by Hilaire April 1, 2017

April 1, 2017

Hi, As far as I see when I store a DateAndTime with local time, "2017-03-31T17:10:46.137086+02:00", then I fetch it back, I got an UTC DateAndTime "2017-03-31T15:10:46.137086+00:00". Am I doing something wrong or do I need to use a mongo description to correct that. But wait, even so, I will not know what was the initial local time. How do you usually deal such issue? Thanks Hilaire -- Dr. Geo http://drgeo.eu
