Thanks hernan. I do not think that there is a fileList in newTools. I will check your file dialog.

Pharo needs you! Call to save the Pharo UI
by stephane ducasse Nov. 23, 2023

Nov. 23, 2023

Hello people If you want that Pharo just do not endlessly stay with such a crappy UI we all know, please consider joining the effort. We should make sure that as a general principle, a model MUST not refer to a UI. So that we can change the UI. We are working on it. But we need help. We should (1) Migrate last cool Morphic-based tools such as Finder, Settings to Spec2, FileList to Spec (2) Remove dependencies from Domain objects to Morphic (obviously) - remove to UIManager first from code outside Morphic. As a general principle please watch http://rmod-pharo-mooc.lille.inria.fr/AdvancedDesignMooc/Videos/M03_S5.mp4 http://rmod-pharo-mooc.lille.inria.fr/AdvancedDesignMooc/Videos/M09_S4.mp4 It looks basic but it is so true. Current status (1) Hernan started to work on the Setting Browser I know someone started to work on Finder but I think the effort was stalled. We need help there. (2) We started to clean the refactorings and we are making progress but this is slow. I started to remove references to UIManager because it should go away. In Spec we introduced dialog, check the examples in subclasses of SpDialogPresenter In addition, an application is able to create some default dialog check ui - dialogs in SpApplication I introduced a simple notification center that should play a kind of growl. The inform: calls should be redirected to notify: because inform: was in P11 not blocking and now in P12 there are. I created special issues about the references to UIManager I opened issues with a special tag https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%… The analysis is here https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/issues/14174 <https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/issues/14174> Here are some scripts. # Here we see the dependencies from Spec to UIManager | allSpec results | results := Dictionary new. allSpec := SpPresenter withAllSubclasses.

Open Call: Object-Centric Breakpoints experiment
by Steven Costiou Nov. 21, 2023

Nov. 21, 2023

Dear Community, We would like to invite you to participate to our experimental study on Object-Centric Breakpoints. This study aims to evaluate and to understand how Object-Centric Breakpoints impacts the debugging activity. This experiment takes place in **Pharo 9**. In this experiment, we ask you to solve 2 debugging tasks, one with standard Pharo tools and one other with Object-Centric Breakpoints. Between the two tasks, you will have to follow a tutorialand warmup tasks to learn how to use the tool. **How to Participate:** All instructions are here, please read them carefully: https://github.com/Pharo-XP-Tools/XPImageGeneration/tree/exp-ocd **About the Experiment:** The experiment last between 40 minutes and 2 hours. Participants should have experience with Pharo development and debugging. We recommend having more than 6 months experience in Pharo and debugging in general. You will gain insights into the Object-Centric Breakpoints approach and contribute to advancements in debugging research. Help us to build better debugging tools that help you debug! :) **Some constraints:** - You are not allowed to load external tools and baselines, but you can use anything that is in the base image - Please do the experiment in one shot if possible without interruptions - The experiment sends anonymous data to our inria server, please make sure that you have a valid internet connection - Please try to use the object-centric breakpoints when the experimental framework asks you to **Notes:** Participation is voluntary, and everything is anonymous. You can abandon the experiment at any point (and your data will be discarded). For any question, you can contact us: steven.costiou(a)inria.fr and valentin.bourcier(a)inria.fr Thank you for considering participating in our study. Your contribution will be valuable in advancing the field of debugging and helping us understand what tools we need to build for Pharo. Sincerely, Steven and Valentin, EVREF team, Inria

Server socket: can not accept if backlog < 2
by Martin Fischer Nov. 19, 2023

Nov. 19, 2023

Hi all, I'm in the process of learning pharo. As an exercise I'm implementing a "Inter-VM Object channel": - objects serialized/deserialized via Fuel - bidi channel connects 2 vm's - sendObject and receiveObject as api - transport configurable as either Socket or SharedMem (as an opportunity to learn the threaded FFI stuff) During the implementation of the server socket side, I stumbled over a strange behavior when the backlog is set to a value less than 2: Here is a simplified version of the server side: listeningSocket := Socket newTCP. listeningSocket listenOn: 19999 backlogSize: 1. "NOTE the 1 here!" clientSocket := listeningSocket waitForAcceptFor: 30. ... When a client connects: echo Hallo | nc -v 127.0.0.1 19999 listeningSocket waitForAcceptFor: is unblocked and signals an error which I think is then masked by another error which is: "SocketError: cannot access socket error code" which is raised from Socket primSocketError: Note that no error is signaled as soon as the backlog size is 2 or more. - Is there a reason for this behavior or is this a bug? - Is my analysis correct that the original error is hidden by another error that is raised during handling of the original error? Regards, Martin -- ____________________________________ Martin Fischer

Problems using Neo2 Layout
by Ricardo G. Herdt Nov. 18, 2023

Nov. 18, 2023

Hi, I use the Neo2 keyboard layout (https://www.neo-layout.org/) It provides a.o.t. a layer (4) that has custom navigation keys, for instance one can press (thinking in terms of a regular layout) 'AltGr+s' for left, 'AltGr+f' for right and so on. This works on every single program I use, what makes it very convenient to me, since I don't have to reconfigure programs to accept shortcuts I'm used to. Unfortunately this does not work in Pharo. For what it is worth, I tried it in Squeak, and it works there. IntelliJ IDEA also has this problem by default, what can be solved by checking "Settings -> Keymap -> Use national keyboards for shortcuts". Is someone aware of any workaround for Pharo? As I understand it, either it doesn't accept navigation keys produced by a modifier key, or modifier keys are mapped somehow differently than in my OS. I'm using Debian 12 with Gnome 43.6 + wayland and Pharo 12.0. Regards, Ricardo G. Herdt

New blog post on all:objects all: theTime
by Koen De Hondt Nov. 15, 2023

Nov. 15, 2023

Dear Pharo users and developers, After my presentation at ESUGâ23, which has been added to my blog <https://all-objects-all-the-time.st/#/blog/posts/4> too, I wrote an evaluation of Calypso <https://all-objects-all-the-time.st/#/blog/posts/5>, in which I refer to results of the Pharo Browser Survey that I presented at ESUGâ23. It is a long post. It will be the basis for more posts on browsers in Pharo. My blog does not support commenting. If you have any feedback or comment, please feel free to send me a message. Happy reading! Ciao, Koen

caching proxy for domain data
by Siemen Baader Nov. 2, 2023

Nov. 2, 2023

Hi, I'm looking for something to hold a cached version of a parsed domain model, typically from large HTML or CSV files on disk, parsed with XMLHTTPParser or NeoCSV. Occasionally also JSON and HTML from a web service. The files are frequently updated, so it should check for this at least on disk and reload before returning the cached model to the application. It's not really difficult to implement and I have several "satisficing" solutions implemented, but I think it ought to be a common problem so maybe there is something matured and well abstracted out there. It could even/also be a design pattern common to industry applications. Have you seen anything? cheers Siemen
