EXIF / JPEG metadata
by Alistair Grant Nov. 30, 2025

Nov. 30, 2025

Hi Everyone, As far as I can tell, JPEGReadWriter in Pharo 7 doesn't read (or write) the image metadata, e.g. title, keywords, exposure time, etc. Is anyone aware of a package that does? Thanks! Alistair

Seems that Pharo is a magnet for this kind of project. I've been writing one as well and using it to organize my research notes. Does anyone working on personal info mgmt tools want to talk offline? I expect we're running into some of the same issues, both conceptual and technical. Evan

WebDav and CalDav in Pharo ?
by CÃ©drick BÃ©ler April 13, 2022

April 13, 2022

Hi all, I do some experiments with iCal. For now I serve a full calendar over HTTP. Not bad, but it is read only. Iâd like to try CalDAV. I was looking for it, and also webDAV. Gofer it smalltalkhubUser: 'UdoSchneider' project: 'FileSystemNetwork'; configuration; load. #ConfigurationOfFileSystemNetwork asClass project stableVersion load: 'Webdav' Iâve found the project of Udo, but it doesnât load on P8. I think this is due to the stream refactoring. Right now the image hung. Iâll try maybe to load it manually. But I was wondering oof there were other alternatives ? TIA, CÃ©drick

Is there any way to display the Class Hierarchy as a Diagram or a indented list. Even for all the classes in a package will do. ----- cheers, Sanjay -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

by PAUL DEBRUICKER Feb. 8, 2021

Feb. 8, 2021

Hi - Sometimes I want to revert to older versions of methods e.g. from an hour ago. In the "Recent versions of MyClass>>#myMethod" dialog no timestamps or authors are present. How do I see those? Thanks Paul

[ANN] Pharo Launcher 2.0 released!
by Christophe Demarey July 20, 2020

July 20, 2020

Hi all, Pharo Launcher 2.0 has just been released! It is available from http://pharo.org/download <http://pharo.org/download>. This new version introduces major changes: The UI has been fully rewritten using the new Spec2 framework <https://github.com/pharo-spec/Spec> and the Commander2 library <https://github.com/pharo-spec/Commander2>. UI has been revamped to increase usability, especially for newcomers. The main window is now composed of a toolbar and the list of images. The template list is now available when clicking on the new image button. Documentation web site : All Pharo Launcher features are now explained in the new documentation available at https://pharo-project.github.io/pharo-launcher. You can contribute easily by clicking the *edit on GitHub* button. You can now have many launch configurations for an image (VM to use, vm and image arguments). It means you can use headless Pharo VM from Pharo Launcher. When creating a new image, you can specify an initialisation script that will be run once at the first image launch. It is useful to load your project code in a stock Pharo image for example. See https://pharo-project.github.io/pharo-launcher/create-images/#image-initial… You can now define your own template sources in addition to official sources (see https://pharo-project.github.io/pharo-launcher/templates/#create-your-own-l…) including authenticated sources. Improved image metadata. Pharo Launcher now manages all image metadata in a single STON file (including description, Pharo version). Big thanks to all contributors, including issue reports. It is also the opportunity to thanks Damien Cassou, the original author of Pharo Launcher. Here is the changelog: Pharo Launcher v2.0 <https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-launcher/releases/tag/2.0> The list of closed issue is too long (68) to be listed but you can browse it here: https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-launcher/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Acl… Here are some highlights: New features: Documentation web site Image initialisation script Launch configurations, headless VM support User template file in addition to the official template file Jenkins server template now support pipeline projects Support of private Jenkins server Support of authenticated HTTP server Improvements: Monitoring of image launch failures to give back the error message (if any) Newly created image is automatically selected in the image list Allow to set image description at creation time Better error management (you will have the choice to ignore them or debug them) Add a poor version column in image list Speedup (especially when image repository has a lot of images) Bug fixes: Fix use of system unzip on Windows Regards, The Pharo team.

Webminar about VA Smalltalk new OS Process Framework
by Mariano Martinez Peck July 10, 2020

July 10, 2020

Greetings all, Some time ago, I had the pleasure and privilege of being sponsored by the Pharo Consortium to implement OSSubprocess. Because of that work, I quickly realized that a new OS process framework created by Instantiations was quite advanced and unlike anything I had seen before. If you are able, I would highly recommend that you attend the technology preview of this framework coming to VAST 2021: Seth Berman will be presenting, registration here: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/7491754880594201356 We hope the community can attend and we look forward to your feedback and questions during the event's Q&A session. Best regards, -- Mariano Martinez Peck Email: marianopeck(a)gmail.com Twitter: @MartinezPeck LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/mariano-martinez-peck <https://www.linkedin.com/in/mariano-mart%C3%ADnez-peck/> Blog: https://marianopeck.wordpress.com/

Output the method name as a string at runtime
by ASAM July 9, 2020

July 9, 2020

Hello, I would like to output the method name as a string in case of an error. what I've already done is this: (with thisContext selector asString) pduDestruct | result | result := call ffiPDUDestruct. result = T_PDU_ERROR PDU_STATUS_NOERROR ifFalse: [ Error signal:'Method: ' , thisContext selector asString , ' with result: ', result item asString ] but now I use it more often. And wanted to rebuild it like that. initialize errorBlock := [ :tPduError | Error signal:'Method: ' , thisContext selector asString , ' with result: ', tPduError item asString ]. pduDestruct | result | result := call ffiPDUDestruct. result = T_PDU_ERROR PDU_STATUS_NOERROR ifFalse: [ errorBlock value: result ] but that doesn't work because "this Context selector toString" now returns 'initialize'. Can someone give me a hint how to solve this? Is "thisContext selector asString" the only way to get the name of the method at runtime? Thanks in advance. -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
