FOSDEM2022

by Santiago Bragagnolo

Hello everybody! This year I was not expecting to have stand since it seemed that there was no stands at all. But i was mistaken at many levels. Not only there are stands but also i did not have to do much for ensuring participation: We are on board. This year just as 2021 because of covid fosdem is online, as well as our stand. I invite you to get yourself in the stand online, and please tellme if there are news that are too old (besides the fact that we talk about pharo8, i clearly know that :P ), and things that you would like to add. https://stands.fosdem.org/stands/pharo/ Maybe books, videos, whatever. Thanks you all!

Re: Pharo-WebView

by TomaÅ¾ Turk

Dear all, Pharo-Webview works on Windows 10 64-bit and Linux 64-bit (tested on Ubuntu 20.04). The needed webview.so dynamic library is available within the repository at https://github.com/eftomi/Pharo-Webview. On Linux use headless VM. There's also a webview.dylib for MacOS if someone wants to try it (built on Monterey), however I wasn't successful on this platform, despite the fact that I tried TFWorker and TFMainThreadRunner approaches, too. I'm also not keen on Cocoa. The library itself lacks a better support for webview create-destroy mechanisms although it could be upgraded. I achieved my needed functionality and unfortunatelly don't have time to continue. Maybe I'll continue in next months, but according to my experiences so far it would be better to choose a slightly heavier but cleaner Photino (https://www.tryphotino.io/) or something else. Or maybe to work on pure Pharo approach :-) One of the interesting challenges is a double nature of Pharo - interactive and "headless" mode - meaning that the application runs without Pharo GUI. It'd be nice if both approaches would be possible. The library that I used builds on the headless idea, where the main GUI loop is supposed to be taken over by the webview, which is the main reason for "create-destroy" challenge if you use it interactively. This multiplied by USER32.DLL, Gtk3, and Cocoa ... Best wishes, Tomaz

In many Smalltalk implementations, you have *.sources and *.changes files to go along with the image file. There may be a problem with these files in your installation. Missing, not readable, corrupted, ... who knows what. In my Windows environment, the Launcher has put my images in C:\Users\myuserid\Documents\Pharo\images\. For example, I have a Pharo 9.0 - 64bit (stable) directory there with a number of files, including my *.image, *. sources, and *.changes files for that "project". Curiously, the image and changes files have the same basename, which matches the directory. The sources file has a slightly different name. > > This has happened through my entire model, not just as described above. > What is going on.

Hi Thanks for your interest. Unfortunately I do not know how to check that.

Hi Robert, have you checked that you're seeing the code you've typed and not just decompiled methods? Best, Steffen Robert Briggs via Pharo-users schrieb am Montag, 27.

Re: Pharo-WebView

by TomaÅ¾ Turk

Short report on webview porting: - on Windows (Edge, Edge/Chrome) it works single threaded, it is more or less done, needs some rigorous stability testing, - on Linux/Ubuntu (gtk3, webkit2gtk) almost done, it works as a separate TFWorker thread, still needs some process status checking if webview window is closed by user. - on MacOS (Cocoa, WebKit) I got hold of an older Mac (Sierra) where WebKit doesn't support clipboard operations, but I have made a dynamic library without clipboard support just to continue the development. If anyone is curious, for compilation you need gcc (available here: https://github.com/kennethreitz/osx-gcc-installer) Then get webview.h and webview.cc from https://github.com/webview/webview and compile it with: c++ -dynamiclib webview.cc -std=c++11 -framework WebKit -o libwebview.dylib After some more tests on Windows and Linux I'll pack all the libs on GitHub and update the readme. Happy holidays, Tomaz

Pharo 9 arbitrarily changes temporary variable names

by Robert Briggs

Hi I define temporary variables in a method, e.g. |e r |, e.g. in a unit test, but when I run the test Pharo automatically replaces these with | tmp1 tmp2 |. A similar thing happens with method arguments.Â For example methodName: aString at: anInteger will become methodName: arg1 at: arg2. This has happened through my entire model, not just as described above.Â What is going on.Â Is it a bug, or is there a setting that needs to be changed? Many thanks for any feedback on this.
