Norbert, this is a great initiaitive and a much-needed step in the right direction. An LTS Pharo is really a must for many commercial projects. I wish you best of luck and success! A little side note on the "Why PharoPro?" section on your website: The commercial entity behind Ubuntu is Canonical. Ubuntu is the name of the distribution and Canonical is the company. If you'd like to use an analogy with European context, mentioning SuSE might be a nice addition. Or NextCloud, which has a lot of visibility these days. Maybe adding a few more examples is a good idea anyways in order to show the concept is not new at all and has been successfull in many places - both for the open source project and for the company/ies.

Re: [Pharo-users] TypingVisitor window opens while editing a source

by Marcus Denker

Hello, I can not reproduce. In Pharo8 (latest, not stable) the back-port added exactly that method on Undefined.

Re: [Pharo-users] Willow-Seaside serving static files

by TomaÅ¾ Turk

Thanks, Esteban. I checked the url of the image (http://localhost:8080/files/EMStaticFiles/window.png) and it is proper, however it is not accessible (I get /files/EMStaticFiles/window.png not found), so I believe that besides forbidden listings the access to files is also forbidden. I'm looking into WAFileHandler class however cannot find a way to enable serving of static files.

Ups, I will check, I did a back-port that was related to this. > On 17 Jun 2020, at 09:41, Richard Van de Moosdijk/G <rivandemo(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > > Since a few days Pharo opens a Â« TypingVisitor Â» window each time i try to edit a method (every one or two characters).

Hi Norbert, I would say 'finally'. This is great news and a good initiative. This will certainly help move Pharo forward. I wish you all the best.

Re: [Pharo-users] TypingVisitor window opens while editing a source

by hogoww

Hi Richard, Could you open an Issue on the github repository please? I was unable to reproduce it (quickly) with a fresh 64 pharo 8 or 9. Maybe I had the wrong process. Regardless, I think this is related with the code completion tool, so i'll take a look if you can indicate a reproducible case ! Pierre.

[ANN] PharoPro

by Norbert Hartl

Dear community, we are very proud to announce the availability of PharoPro, a company that offers professional support for the pharo platform. Our mission is to enable people and companies to secure their business when building products with pharo. We have been tinkering with the idea creating it for a long time. We talked to a lot of people, especially at last ESUG in cologne and finally decided to do it. So at the end of last year we founded the company PharoPro. Obstacles (one being covid-19) kept us from make it public until today. In close relationship with the pharo consortium our mission is to extend the market opportunities for pharo. Although PharoPro is new and still small we want to show our commitment to the consortium and the community from the start. We decided therefor that PharoPro will join the pharo consortium as platinum member. Our plans apart from support contracts is to have an LTS (long term support) version of pharo, create a professional pharo ecosystem with libraries and frameworks and to help out building the infrastructure pharo needs. We are still shaping up. We want to know your requirements and needs that help us deciding what are the most needed things. So you might visit http://pharo-pro.com and then come talk to us. Best regards and health, Norbert PharoPro GmbH

TypingVisitor window opens while editing a source

Hi, Since a few days Pharo opens a Â« TypingVisitor Â» window each time i try to edit a method (every one or two characters). It looks like a debug breakpoint: How can i get rid of this? Thank you for help. Richard

Re: [Pharo-users] DateTime now nanos

by Jeff Gray

I may be misunderstanding, but is the example in the link declaring a sqlite column of type datetime? I didn't think you could do that. I just created a person table with four text columns and wrote this in my playground: |conn sql bindings| conn := SQLite3Connection on: 'C:\Users\JeffGray\test.db'. conn open. sql := 'insert into person (active, created, first_name, last_name) values ("Y", ?, "Jeff", "Gray")'. bindings := OrderedCollection new. bindings add: DateAndTime now. conn execute: sql with: bindings. conn close. Then I wrote this to pull it out: |conn sql c rows| conn := SQLite3Connection on: 'C:\Users\JeffGray\test.db'. conn open. sql := 'select created from person where rowid = 1'. c := conn execute: sql. row := c rows first. (row at: 'created') inspect. conn close. The object I get is a byte string. Is there any magic I can do to get a DateAndTime or: 1. do I have to know the column is a date and call the DateAndTime fromString:; or 2. can you make a sqlite column know it's a date (like in the example link); or 3. is there something else I'm missing? -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

Fwd: [Pharo-dev] Fwd: Help Needed! Survey on developer knowledge of Breakpoints/Watchpoints

by Steven Costiou

Hello, I did not see this email go through the Pharo users mailing list, so just in case: -------- Courriel original -------- OBJET: [Pharo-dev] Fwd: Help Needed! Survey on developer knowledge of Breakpoints/Watchpoints DATE: 2020-06-10 15:40 DE: Thomas Dupriez <tdupriez(a)ens-paris-saclay.fr> Ã: pharo-dev(a)lists.pharo.org RÃPONDRE Ã: Pharo Development List <pharo-dev(a)lists.pharo.org> Hi all, As part of a research work on watchpoints, we are setting up a survey to gauge the general knowledge developers have on breakpoints/watchpoints. It should take around 10 minutes to complete. Here is the link to participate if you would be so kind: https://forms.gle/eK4HFvU1YNZZkiaHA If you are interested in the results, you can check the box at the end of the survey and we will send you feedback on the results of the survey. Additionally, we are going to set up a controlled experiment to evaluate the effectiveness of a new type of watchpoints we are developing for Pharo. The gist of it is that we will observe participants hunt some bugs, with and without the new tool, and see if their performance improve. So, if you know how to program in Pharo, and would be willing to participate, there is a question in the survey to tell us you are interested. We will get research data, and you will get a new debugging tool in Pharo. So it's a win-win. That's it! Thanks for your time! And extra thanks if you take the survey or consider participating in the experiment! Thomas Dupriez This research work is conducted by: - Eduardo A. Fontana, UniversitÃ© du QuÃ©bec Ã Chicoutimi, Canada. - Thomas Dupriez, Univ. Lille, France. And is supervised by: - Fabio Petrillo, UniversitÃ© du QuÃ©bec Ã Chicoutimi, Chicoutimi, QuÃ©bec, Canada. - Steven Costiou, Inria Lille, France. - YANN-GAÃL GUÃHÃNEUC, Concordia University, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. - STÃPHANE DUCASSE, Inria Lille, France.
