Working with an entire project in git

by sergio ruiz

Hey, all.. I was just checking in to see the progress of managing an entire project with git. The last I checked in, this was a work in progress. My current pet project consists of a handful of classes with maybe two handfuls of required packages. Is the entire metacello configuration being handled on github yet? I would like to work this into my workflow so that I can do something like: - Grab a fresh Pharo - Pharo.image ../scripts/setup-client-application.st where the setup script just grabs the Configuration and loads and starts a fresh project. Thanks! ---- peace, sergio photographer, journalist, visionary Public Key: http://bit.ly/29z9fG0 #BitMessage BM-NBaswViL21xqgg9STRJjaJaUoyiNe2dV http://www.codeandmusic.com http://www.twitter.com/sergio_101 http://www.facebook.com/sergio101

Re: [Pharo-users] Trait method override

by tesonep＠gmail.com

Jajajja, yes I like the power that there is in the language. It opens a lot of doors and possibilities. You can check the implementation of deep alias that rewrites the users of the aliased method. There is also the ability to implement new operations to traits algebra. You can check how they are implemented and implement new operations.

Re: [Pharo-users] Trait method override

by Vitor Medina Cruz

Hello Pablo, Don't think it is ugly, I personally think it is wonderfull how those extensions to the language can be done with normal messaging passing code! But the information about this seems scattered a bit, I found in google and was not certain if the information was official or correct. Also, there could be some default aliases in hand, in a way similar to groovy: http://docs.groovy-lang.org/latest/html/documentation/#_user_conflict_resol… So, if I use TraitA with a methodX, this method could be aliased by default with something like TraitA_methodX. Don't know if this have some problem, just an idea (maybe I will explore this here :) ) regards, Vitor On Fri, Aug 17, 2018 at 4:37 AM, tesonep(a)gmail.com <tesonep(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Vitor, > as Julien correctly said there is no super call in traits.

Hi Marcus - I can put an image somewhere if that helps (do you just need the .image and .changes)? Or you can repro from a fresh 6.1 if you follow the exercism Pharo instructions (https://exercism.io/tracks/pharo) to load the first hello world-world example and run the tests. This has my code changes to make create work with a nil class - but maybe we can do better?

Is the debugger known to be unstable on recent Pharo 7?

by Tim Mackinnon

Hi, Iâm doing some travelling and had a stretch on a plane with Pharo 7 - 64bit b166, and was trying out some changes to Calypso to plug in some potential keyboard extensions. Anyway, in figuring stuff out I noticed the debugger had a number of issues - which I can try to investigate more but wanted to say something before ploughing on. When I hit a method invoked from the keyboard which has self halt (not a soft breakpoint, as I was changing code and didnât want to keep losing the breakpoint) - when I made a change and hit save I get an extra empty predebug window ? The older debug window also has a my single method but no stack and is not debuggable. The upshot is that I have to start debugging all over again? I also noticed that when I hit an error and got a debugger and then fixed the error, resumed but then hit another - the title of the window was still the old error msg and not the new one (so quite confusing). Has there been recent work done in the debugger that might explain these? Tim Sent from my iPhone

Re: [Pharo-users] separate native window of same Pharo image

by kmo

Who knows whether OSWindow is maintained? Who knows if anybody cares that it doesn't work on Windows? OSWindow is like lots of things that suddenly appear in the Pharo standard image. There's no documentation. There's no plan. That's the Pharo way. Give it a year or two and it will be superseded by another framework doing the same thing which will also have no documentation, killer bugs, and no plan. -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
