Help contributing a fix to pharo - docs seem out of date again?
by Tim Mackinnon June 19, 2018

June 19, 2018

Hi - a few weeks ago, I contributed a tiny fix to Pharo 7 -and the instructions seemed to work really well. Iâve since come back to try and do some more over lunch (I was thinking Iâd like to dig out the changes I worked out for using the AST and cursor to make senders/implements work properly and not just use the selected text). My first problem was that my fork of Pharo from many months ago was out of date - I think the instructions on https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/wiki/Contribute-a-fix-to-Pharo <https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/wiki/Contribute-a-fix-to-Pharo> should probably mention this subtlety. It took me ages to figure out what to do - this was the clue (https://help.github.com/articles/syncing-a-fork/ <https://help.github.com/articles/syncing-a-fork/>) - and of particular note the the tiny bit at the bottom to ensure you Push your changes back to your GitHub fork (I slightly complicated myself by using IntelliJ to do this - doable but you need to be aware of whats going on). I did this in a separate non-pharo directory (I think thats what you would recommend right? Then you can keep updating it from time to time?) Having got my GitHub fork caught up with pharo/development - I then have the Local Repo Missing error (expected) - and now when I go to repair it I can either clone again (which is the instructions online) - or âLocate this repository in your file systemâ. As Iâve had to already check everything out to catch up to pharo/dev I chose to locate. I then get a Fetch require msg (expected) I then choose to use Fetch (Iâm not sure what the Repair repository picture is now about?) - the text does mention I will become detached, so Iâve stuck to that Iâm not sure why the âsolving a detached working copyâ is further down the page - but Iâve jumped to that It says I need to synchronise both (image and repo) - but then says its easier to do a branch - and then says a nice alternative is to create a temp branch like temp/synch - however I canât see how to do that as there is only Crete new Branch from Issue now (the picture shows that plus New Branch). Am I on the right track here? If I want try something out - do I just create myself a new issue (or is there a temp issue anyway?) Tim

Pharo 7 proxy problem
by Vitor Medina Cruz June 19, 2018

June 19, 2018

Hello, I decided to give a try on Pharo 7 and see how iceberg is doing.... on windows :) Pharo launcher is working fine by the way â I had some problems with it in the past, but it seems more stable now. Well, if using windows isn't bad enought I am behind a proxy, so I use cntlm and my configuration in Pharo 6.1 for cntlm proxy on localhost works fine, but in 7 don't. First it seems to not recognize localhost as 127.0.0.1, it prompts the message: NameLookupFailure: cannot resolve 'localhost' Using 127.0.0.1 I got a PrimitiveFailure (Ick!): PrimitiveFailed: primitive #primSocketCreateNetwork:type:receiveBufferSize:sendBufSize:semaIndex:readSemaIndex:writeSemaIndex: in Socket failed' Since it is a primitive problem, I figure there is no workaround possible here... right? ------------------------------------------------ Socket(ProtoObject)>>primitiveFailed: Socket(ProtoObject)>>primitiveFailed Socket>>primSocketCreateNetwork:type:receiveBufferSize:sendBufSize:semaIndex:readSemaIndex:writeSemaIndex: Socket>>initialize: [ super new initialize: TCPSocketType ] in Socket class>>newTCP in Block: [ super new initialize: TCPSocketType ] BlockClosure>>repeatWithGCIf: Socket class>>newTCP ZdcSocketStream class(ZdcSimpleSocketStream class)>>openConnectionToHost:port:timeout: ZnNetworkingUtils>>socketStreamToUrlDirectly: ZnNetworkingUtils>>socketStreamToProxy ZnNetworkingUtils>>socketStreamToUrl: ZnNetworkingUtils class>>socketStreamToUrl: ZnClient>>newConnectionTo: ZnClient>>getConnectionAndExecute ZnClient>>executeWithRedirectsRemaining: [ self executeWithRedirectsRemaining: self maxNumberOfRedirects ] in ZnClient>>executeWithRetriesRemaining: in Block: [ self executeWithRedirectsRemaining: self maxNumb...etc...

How to contribute to Pharo Launcher?
by Tim Mackinnon June 19, 2018

June 19, 2018

Is PharoLauncher using git - there is a note saying the StHub repo is about to be moved? I ask as I wanted to contribute a simple change that shows the modified date of the images and lets you sort by that (I sometimes forget which was the latest image I was using and have a few old ones kicking around).

Re: [Pharo-users] How to fix the Pharo launcher Windows installation! (WAS: Windows installation broken?)
by Vincent.Blondeau＠lamresearch.com June 18, 2018

June 18, 2018

Hi all, Indeed, the Windows environment is not the one where Pharo is working the best. Last week, I tried to install it on one of my coworker desktop and there was some issues that was solvable with some workarounds, it is temporary and the windows support will be improved soon: I'm currently working on it, especially on making the Pharo launcher in a read only mode. This way, no administrative privileges will be required to run the launcher. In the meantime, to make the launcher working under Windows: 1. Run with administrative privileges 2. Uncheck: [cid:image001.png@01D406FB.17336870] If you are in a mood to help and contribute to this project (I hope you are!), please report the issues there: https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo-launcher/issues and feel free to suggest some fixes to them :) And please, keep this thread related to Pharo...

This is what concerns me. I don't care that there are workarounds (undocumented or hard to find). I care that Windows is a most popular development platform. I care that newcomers to Pharo easily find what they need to get started. I care about Pharo's reputation. The last thing Pharo needs is a black eye.

Nice Pharo teaser in English?
by Andrei Stebakov June 18, 2018

June 18, 2018

I remember there used to be a nice Pharo teaser video at the top of pharo.org which had some catchy images for data visualization etc. Now all I can see is this link https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3qedvo and it's in French. Could someone point me to the old teaser I am referring to? Thanks! Andrei

Windows installation broken?
by horrido June 18, 2018

June 18, 2018

Someone told me that they had difficulties installing Pharo under Windows. So I had to see for myself. I booted my Mac mini into Windows 7 Ultimate (using Boot Camp), downloaded and installed Pharo Launcher. That person was indeed correct. The Windows version of Pharo is badly broken. I created images for Pharo 5.0, 6.1, and 7.0, and all three refused to open (presumably, they just crash). Am I missing something? What am I doing wrong? -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

Confusion for Pharo MOOC
by horrido June 18, 2018

June 18, 2018

I just discovered a huge source of confusion for the Pharo MOOC. There are two different websites that seem disconnected. One presents information on the next Pharo MOOC session, and the other doesn't. https://www.fun-mooc.fr/courses/course-v1:inria+41010+session03/about http://mooc.pharo.org If you're in the know, this isn't a problem, but if you're a newcomer to Pharo, it's a BIG problem. How do I know? Because I was totally confused! -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
