No diff from tonel repo
by Hilaire Jan. 14, 2019

Jan. 14, 2019

Hi, When I look at the change between image and tonel repo on a changed package, the diff view is empty (screenshot). And the file is indeed unchanged: hilaire@PCHome:~/Travaux/Developpement/Bloc/GToolkitLinux64/drgeo/src/DrGeoII-UI$ cat DrGBlDrawable.class.st Class { Â Â Â #name : #DrGBlDrawable, Â Â Â #superclass : #BlElement, Â Â Â #instVars : [ Â Â Â Â Â Â 'balloonTarget', Â Â Â Â Â Â 'tipOn', Â Â Â Â Â Â 'selection', Â Â Â Â Â Â 'app', Â Â Â Â Â Â 'ox', Â Â Â Â Â Â 'oy', Â Â Â Â Â Â 'scale', Â Â Â Â Â Â 'underMouse', Â Â Â Â Â Â 'lastMoveEvent', Â Â Â Â Â Â 'valueItem', Â Â Â Â Â Â 'dottedLines', Â Â Â Â Â Â 'gridScale' Â Â Â ], Â Â Â #category : #'DrGeoII-UI-Widget' } Do I miss something?

IIUC a talent is behavior like a trait, but that can be dynamically added and removed from anObject instead of being permanently bound to the class ----- Cheers, Sean -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

Hi, Does anyone know of a library for processing GPS coordinates? What I'm looking for are things like: - Parsing from and printing to various string formats (HMS, NESW, decimal) - Distance between two points - etc. Thanks, Alistair

Weird question: why I can't add instance variables to the Object class (for example "oid" or something else)? Is it due to some internal (and different) VM "class layouts"? > > Or - can I inject my own information to all existing objects (any class)? > Behavior is a subclass of Object, too. So that means that you would add a ivar to all the classes, but for the VM an object can only be a class that has three ivars, and those are accessed by offset. So if you add an ivar, you shift the offset â> problem. As for âI want to add object specific stateâ: it would be nice to add an easy to use (and efficient) mechanism to do it. Marcus

Hi, In latest P7 with GToolkit loaded, when performing a search in the settings browser I have an error "#name sent to nil". Anyone notice the same problem? Btw, in the settings browser I don't find anymore the option to remove the critic pane in the class browser? Hilaire -- Dr. Geo http://drgeo.eu

by Dimitris Chloupis Jan. 12, 2019

Jan. 12, 2019

I am happy to annoyance a new channel in our Discord Server , #news News is a read only channel (members cannot post there only admins) that I intended to act as a newspaper of short that you can read with your morning coffee to get all the latest news in the Pharo land. The rules of the channel are very simple, 1) Only admins can post there. Its not a dicussion channel, all other relevant channels can be used for discussing the Pharo news. We already have tons of them. 2) every post must be no more than 2 lines, similarly to twitter, this is for headlines not for entire articles 3) every post must contain a link for more info 4) every post must mention the author that the news concern 5) least news must always be related to Pharo, it can be anything (article, project, update etc) 6) last but not least I am always open to suggestions in case something escapes my attention If you have not done so make sure you join our Discord server following this link https://discord.gg/QewZMZa You wont be getting only news but a very active community always willing to help you with any questions and problems you may have, real time. All people are welcomed :)

[ANN] MaterialDesignLite v2.0.0
by Cyril Ferlicot D. Jan. 11, 2019

Jan. 11, 2019

Hello, Today I released the version v2.0.0 of MaterialDesignLite for Seaside. (https://github.com/DuneSt/MaterialDesignLite/releases/tag/v2.0.0) This release does not brings much new features but it contains all breaking changes that accumulated in the issue tracker. (That's why it's a major release). The main changes are: - Migration to Tonel (People using Gemstone might need to stick to v1.x.x) - Removal of all deprecated classes and methods - I added named URLs in the demo to be able to send links of pages or example - Addition of a Pagination widget as extension of MDL (https://mdl.ferlicot.fr/mdl/Extensions/Pagination) A migration guide can be found here: https://github.com/DuneSt/MaterialDesignLite/blob/v2.0.0/resources/migratio… This release is tagged with v2.0.0 and I also introduced tags v2.x.x and v2.0.x which are moving tags following patch and minor versions. Here is the full changelog of the release: https://github.com/DuneSt/MaterialDesignLite/blob/v2.0.0/CHANGELOG.md If you have issues, need a new feature or have a comment on the project feel free to open a issue: https://github.com/DuneSt/MaterialDesignLite/issues I also updated the demo: https://mdl.ferlicot.fr/ Have a nice day! -- Cyril Ferlicot https://ferlicot.fr

Thanks Norbert, that's great. I won't be able to get back to this project for another week or two (some stuff has come up) but will let you know if I have any questions.
