UKSTUG Meeting - Pierre Misse-Chanabier: Polyphemus Take 2 - 31 January 2024
by Giovanni Corriga Jan. 26, 2024

Jan. 26, 2024

Pierre Misse-Chanabier will talk to us about Polyphemus ( https://github.com/hogoww/Polyphemus ) for the Pharo Virtual Machine. The presentation will focus on how to create Tooling on the Pharo Virtual Machine. (This does not require Virtual machine level knowledge). We will start by taking a look at a few existing tools. We will create one or two small tools, and see how they differ from tooling on the image side. Pierre Misse Chanabier is a recently graduated PhD with a focused interest on Virtual Machines, Code Generation, and Meta Programming. He worked on and contributed to many different levels and parts of the Pharo ecosystem. He is now working on how to leverage images for more than what they do now. He's currently working at Microdoc ( https://www.microdoc.com ) on the Graal VM. Born in south of France, he currently lives in Lille. This will be an online meeting from home. This is a repeat of last November's presentation that could not go ahead due to issues with our Zoom account. If you'd like to join us, please sign up in advance on the meeting's Meetup page ( https://www.meetup.com/ukstug/events/298169915/ ) to receive the meeting details. Donât forget to bring your laptop and drinks!

Books about Pharo
by Richard O'Keefe Jan. 24, 2024

Jan. 24, 2024

This is a new thread because it's not limited to any specific topic. If you have questions about Pharo, especially "how do I do <this> in Pharo", you can always ask in this mailing list. You can, if you like playing Russian Roulette, ask a Large Language Model "AI". But there is an amazing resource you should really trye. books.pharo.org Did you ever wonder where the manual for Pharo was? That's where. The site lists a bunch of Pharo books and booklets, all of which have free PDFs except for two of the books. In particular, you'll always want the most recent edition of "Pharo by Example" handy. These books are really useful. They are written by people know know their material thoroughly and do a good job of explaining it. If you want to make any serious use of Pharo, or even to have more happiness than headaches just playing with it, you owe it to yourself to get the free PDFs What do we owe the authors? Well, if you're not trying to make one pension support four people, you owe them the purchase of some of the books. Me, I'm giving them thanks, praise, and a heartfelt recommendation. Seriously, these books represent a HUGE amount of work and "you are a fool to yourself and a burden to others" if you don't take advantage of this great resource.

by Davide Varvello Jan. 24, 2024

Jan. 24, 2024

Hi Guys,I'm on a mac apple silicon with Pharo 10, I've a couple of problems First: it is not possible anymore to drag and drop the image file on the VM (pharo.app), it was very comfortable. Second: If I open the pharo.app and choose an image that becomes the only running image, I can't launch the pharo.app to run another image in parallel Are these 2 issues solvable, please? Any hint? TIA Davide

Iterating over a Dictionary
by sergio ruiz Jan. 24, 2024

Jan. 24, 2024

I need to iterate over a dictionary. I asked the AI buddy for a little help, and he says: | myDictionary | "Create a dictionary" myDictionary := Dictionary new. myDictionary at: 'one' put: 1. myDictionary at: 'two' put: 2. myDictionary at: 'three' put: 3. "Iterate over the dictionary" myDictionary do: [ :key :value | Transcript show: key , ' -> ', value printString ; nl. ]. but when i try this, I get: ArgumentsCountMismatch: This block accepts 2 arguments, but was called with 1 argument. Is the AI using a different dialect of smalltalk? how would I go about acting on each pair? Thanks! ---- peace, sergio photographer, journalist, visionary Public Key: https://pgp.key-server.io/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x69B08F58923AB3A2 #BitMessage BM-NBaswViL21xqgg9STRJjaJaUoyiNe2dV @sergio_101@mastodon.social https://sergio101.com http://www.codeandmusic.com http://www.twitter.com/sergio_101 http://www.facebook.com/sergio101
