In Settings (bottom right) you can set the VM to use for images. Note this is a global setting. Some nice enhancements would be: * To have a drop down menu where you can select between last N previous VMs used. * To be able to set VM it per image. cheers -ben > > > self naiveUserMode: #off. >> self powerUserMode: #on. >> >> download a new pharo launcher image from CI and replace the one >> in the pharo launcher vm directory. >> > > Thanks, I'll do that for the moment. > > Stephan > > > >

XMLParser GTInspector extensions

by Ben Coman

I happened to need to use and XML Parser for the first time and found inspecting the structure awkward, so I added some GTInspector extensions to XML-Parser. This is uploaded as XML-Parser-BenComan.304 to http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~PharoExtras/XMLParser. Could someone who uses XML regularly check if these are reasonable? Now should these methods be packaged separately somehow, since they are likely not of interest to other Smalltalk flavours? btw I gave them a protocol of "GT-Extensions" - but I also considered "moldable-tools" and "tools-extensions". If there a preference? This will likely be a common occurrence across the community, so we should try for a consistent convention across the community for such extensions. btw2, I notice that #gtDisplayOn: implementors are fairly evenly split between [GT-InspectorExtensions-Core] and [GT-SpotterExtensions-Core]. Are they really separated like this in their use? cheers -ben

It is a distributed version control system that uses increasing numbers instead of UUIDs to number versions. It is not the same version, it just has the same number ;) Git is a much newer DVCS, and has solved some of the problems found in earlier ones. Stephan

How do I update PharoLauncher?

by Stephan Eggermont

self naiveUserMode: #on. If I press refresh in PharoLauncher, it doesn't tell me there is a new version available, and asks me to download, install and restart the launcher. If I download by hand and reinstall, will it keep all my images and settings? Is that different on Ubuntu with apt update/grade? How can I switch/upgrade the vm used for an image? Stephan

Oracle FFI - External module not found on OS X

by recursive68＠gmail.com

Hi, Yes, it's on the same machine. I've tried copying the dylib to MacOS/Plugins directory and it doesn't fix it. Weirdly, if I start the Pharo executable from the command line, where I've set the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH for the dylib in the shell environment, it works. So it seems to be something to do with how OSX Applications have their DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH set. I know there used to be a file in /etc/ on older versions of OS X where you could set it where it did get picked up by applications, but that no longer seems to be the case with the latest version of OSX. Thanks
