A strange iceberg/Monticello loading issue that has appeared in 7.0.2?
by Tim Mackinnon March 17, 2019

March 17, 2019

Iâm really struggling a bit with new images in 7.0.2. Now it may be that itâs not .2âs fault - but as Iâve been doing lots of repeatable things in Pharo 6 and 7a and 7.0.1, you notice when things change. Iâd really appreciate some thoughts on an iceberg/Monticello issue i suddenly hit last night. I merged a large PR in my project and then tested it in a new zero conf 7.0.2 image and directory from master (via that github pr) with the following command line (which Iâve always used): ./pharo-ui Pharo.image eval " Metacello new baseline: 'Exercism'; repository: 'github://exercism/pharo-smalltalk:master'; load. The first time it seemed to work, but I found some bugs, and so I fixed them and merged 2 more tiny prâs. When I delete everything (rm -rf), and load it again, it doesn't load everything? Those commits are missing. When look in my image my fixes aren't there in the code (but they show do in github master) - and when I open up an iceberg window in that fresh image it shows 4 incoming pull requests? Why didnât it load everything? It never used to do this from a clean image using Metacello? Can anyone think of what might cause this? Iâm really confused. Tim Sent from my iPhone

Calypso question: adding a context menu item
by Juraj Kubelka March 16, 2019

March 16, 2019

Hi, To implement a context menu item. I have implemented a new class: -=-=-=- CmdCommand subclass: #ClyHelloCommand instanceVariableNames: '' classVariableNames: '' package: 'Calypso-Extensionsâ -=-=-=- with methods: -=-=-=-=- ClyHelloCommand class >> #systemBrowserMenuActivator <commandActivator> ^CmdContextMenuCommandActivator byRootGroupItemFor: ClyVariableSystemBrowserContext ClyHelloCommand >> # defaultMenuItemName ^'Say Helloâ ClyHelloCommand >> # execute self inform: 'Hello' -=-=-=-=- But it does not display in the context menu. I expect it next to âGenerate accessorsâ as I took this command as an example. What do I miss? Thanks, Juraj

Per project code formatting settings and policy
by Holger Freyther March 16, 2019

March 16, 2019

Hi! I found myself doing codereview and commenting on style (e.g. missing indention). It seems like a task that can be easily automated and in fact we have RBFormmatter/BlueInk to do it. What I didn't see is if a project can supply the style (instead of the image configuration)? How could this be achieved? holger
