Hi, the second major version of the PDF library for VisualWorks is now available. The main driver for this was the project to port the library to Gemstone which is available as well. Also, the tool used for the port. Check the project page: https://wiki.pdftalk.de where you can find more information about the three projects and the release notes.

Custom URI scheme for Pharo
by Manuel Leuenberger Oct. 12, 2017

Oct. 12, 2017

Hi, Is there any support from the VM/Application package to add custom URI schemes to listen to from within Pharo? I would like to have a hyperlink like âpharo://send?data=fancypantsâ <pharo://send?data=fancypants%E2%80%99> in an arbitrary document that, when clicked, switches to Pharo and calls a hook I can register. Could someone give me a hint how to achieve that, or do I have to build a little bridge application that handles the scheme registration and talks with Pharo through another channel? Currently, I only need this for OS X. Cheers, Manuel

I've added a Pharo 7 version, copied the configurations from DBXTalk/Glorp to DBXTalk/Configurations and the metarepos, and replaced the #'Pharo6.0.x' style names by #'Pharo6.x' style. Please let me know if that creates problems Stephan

how to update a pane in a customized inspector
by Steven Costiou Oct. 10, 2017

Oct. 10, 2017

Hi, I am trying to customize an inspector with a code browser, and I have in a compose method of my own browser the following: [...] browser transmit from: #methods; fromOutsidePort: #entity; to: #source; when: [ :method | method notNil ]; andShow: [ :a :method :object | self sourceOf: method for: object in: a ]. browser transmit from: #links; fromOutsidePort: #entity; to: #selectedLink; when: [ :link | link notNil ]; andShow: [ :a :link | self inspectSelectedLink: link inPresenter: a ]. [...] Is there an easy way to update the #source pane whenever one of my links is selected in my #link pane ? In my case, the source code is displayed first, and when i select a link in the #link pane i want to highlight specific parts of this source code and the easiest way would be to re-trigger the first block above. I did not try it, but it seems that i could retrieve the #source pane and the selected method manually and re-trigger the method from the second block (i.e. when a link is selected), but i am not sure that is the right way to do it... Also i was wondering if there was a video of the moldable inspector tutorial from pharo days 17 somewhere on the web, because i did not find it on youtube.

Job offers

Oct. 8, 2017

Two jobs in Europe: In Le Mans France, CGI is looking for an OO developer, ideally Smalltalk. CGI is a French IT services company and works in lots of different domains. One clearly needs to be able to work in France, and, most likely in French as well. https://cgi.njoyn.com/cgi/xweb/xweb.asp?CLID=21001&page=jobdetails&JobID=J0… The second is in Kaiserslautern Germany with Bison. Bison is a Swiss and German IT services company similar in many ways to CGI above. http://jobview.monster.com/Software-Developer-m-w-Job-Kaiserslautern-Rheinl… Good Luck!
