Loading PetitYAML-PhilippeBack.11.mcz went fine. But out of 76 tests I get 57 errors. This are so many error that that it is quite possible that they have a single cause. I did not start debugging. Something similar happens if I go back to PetitYAML-JanKurs.8 Author: JanKurs Time: 15 June 2016 What I aiming at is - to have Pillar loaded (was successful, see other thread) - get a working PetitYAML version --Hannes P.S. Note that the screen shot shows a Pharo 6.0 version. But it actually is 6.1 (see other thread).

Re: [Pharo-users] GTInspect auto-update in raw view?

by Andrei Chis

However, we still need the update button. The automatic refresh only works for the Raw view. A general solution for the update is not yet implemented.

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo for Android

by Stephane Ducasse

Santiago Bragagnolo updated the VM but it is still using an old pulling event system. It is on our large todo to address this but it means a lot of work. We want a better Android support for sure but .... Now you can use Pharo on Android.

Re: [Pharo-users] [Pillar] Installed the Pillar document preparation system into 6.1, how do I start using it?

by H. Hirzel

Exactly. Section 7 of https://ci.inria.fr/pharo-contribution/job/EnterprisePharoBook/lastSuccessf… has an example | wiki | wiki := '!My Document'. PRPillarParser parse: wiki Or PRPillarParser parse: (FileSystem workingDirectory / 'foo.pillar') readStream and then PRHTMLWriter write: document This put together gives PRHTMLWriter write: ( PRPillarParser parse: (FileSystem workingDirectory / 'welcome.pillar') ) If I inspect the result of this expression I get the HTML string.
