Re: [Pharo-users] How do you easily re-categorise methods in Calypso?

by Tim Mackinnon

No problem Denis - Iâm ready to dip a toe in on things like this. I just wanted to make sure I wasnât missing something or stick in old habits. Just tried a simple fix today and discovered itâs in the Calypso code - so need to get my fork sorted again.

Hi Tim. It needs to be improved. I simply reused the choose dialog from add protocol command because the change protocol dialog was the part of Nautilus.

how to test, if the class has "shared identity" of instances in the whole image (SmallIntegers, Symbols...)

by Petr Fischer

Hello, some classes, like Symbols or SmallIntegers, shares identity of value instances in the whole image (I may say it wrong), so: 1 == 1 copy. [true] #aaa == #aaa copy. [true] all other classes not, like Strings, Objects etc., so: 'aaa' == 'aaa' copy. [false] Is there any test method (maybe on the class side) I could ask for this (isXXX)? Thanks! pf

Pharo 7/8 is 64-bits by default on macOS and Linux, no problems there. > On 20 Feb 2019, at 17:23, BrunoBB <smalltalk(a)adinet.com.uy> wrote: > > Hi Esteban, > > Nice to see you here too... > > The web application will run Linux 64bits, the Pharo 64bits for Linux is > stable or i should use a 32bit VM ? > > Thanks for all the information slowly but surely we will implement this app. > > Also it seems that Pharo has a very active community !!! > > regards, > bruno > > > > -- > Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html >

Hi Esteban, Nice to see you here too... The web application will run Linux 64bits, the Pharo 64bits for Linux is stable or i should use a 32bit VM ? Thanks for all the information slowly but surely we will implement this app. Also it seems that Pharo has a very active community !!! regards, bruno -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

Re: [Pharo-users] How to load a single package in a Metacello baseline

by Sean P. DeNigris

Tim Mackinnon wrote > Yeah - I have a similar issue with ExternalWebBrowser... that drags in... > [a] huge raft of tests My workflow is to make every project one monolithic package until the need to do otherwise is presented (like right now!). I used to carefully think about theoretical use case scenarios and split projects up along those lines, but management (especially with the tooling available at that time) seemed to explode exponentially, so I went monolithic. After several years of experience, this is the first time someone expressed a pain point (that I remember anyway)! This seems to validate the current approach and my suspicion that preemptively creating multiple packages is akin to premature optimization. Tim Mackinnon wrote > I think what we have to do is submit pull requests to these projects such > that they create better baselines with Groups Yes! I will happily integrate. The tests may need to be promoted to a package if they are currently in a tag, but 'Core' without and 'Tests' with seems appropriate given your issue. I don't have a strong opinion on the default but my guess is to leave it as is (i.e. all packages) because newbies will get the tests (i.e. documentation) and advanced users will know enough to customize. ----- Cheers, Sean -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo general questions for a commercial application

by Esteban Maringolo

Hi Bruno, Is good to see you here as well :) 1) 7.0+. If you're in Windows only 32 bit is supported. 2) For RDBMS forget about DBXTalk and Garage, I would suggest you go straight to the PostgreSQL client (P3) or SQLite. Those are maintained and used, the rest... who knows. If you need ORM you can use Glorp with any of those. 3) As Sven mentioned there are many options, there is people using Docker containers managed by Docker Swarm, so the options are many. But if you use Seaside with stateful sessions (you'll need affinity by session or IP). Regards, Esteban A.

Sven, Thanks for you answer and links. SQL will be enough and no need for a complex ORM. I will take a look at: https://github.com/svenvc/pharo-server-tools Thanks again ! regards, bruno PS: my client has an running Java app and need another app to do some functionality and they will give Smalltalk (Pharo) and opportunity. The apps will be connected through a database and web services. -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
