DateAndTime>>asTime

by dmacq

In Pharo V2, if I execute this snippet: | x | x := DateAndTime year: 1991 day: 196 hour: 20 minute: 5 second: 7. x asTime inspect I get '12:0-54:0-53 am' which is not what I expect. DateAndTime>>asTime changed from 1.4 to 2.0. Any ideas?

Can you find out if it is VM, image or OS related, by elimination ? There were/are other problems with Ubuntu 13.04, due to an upgraded libc if I am not mistaken. Sorry that I can't be of any more assistance. Sven

ui slowness on newly installed ubuntu 13.04 64bit

by Paul DeBruicker

Hi - I've recently installed Pharo 1.4 & 2.0 on a laptop I upgraded to Ubuntu 13.04 and using both Eliot's vm for Pharo 1.4 and the pharovm from the Ubuntu PPA. The UI is incredibly slow with it sometimes taking 1 second to switch windows when they are clicked or > 8 seconds to find the senders/implementors of a method. Is there something I can check to see what the problem may be? cat /proc/cpuinfo shows that the CPU is running at the high frequency. Thanks Paul

Re: [Pharo-users] Questions about Magma

by Thushar G R

Hi , @StÃ©phane Ducasse I will definitely give mango DB a try. I was using GLORP since a very long time (not in pharo) so when i looked at magma i got interested. So all other options stayed back for later in my list. @Stuart Herring The changes as far as i know is related to SystemAnnouncer , FileReference and the vm parameterAt: . So what i plan to do is to load all the latest stuff a from ss3.gemstone.com/ss/MaBase Ma-Client-Server Magama , make the changes and run the tests , with *MagmaTestCase fullSuite maDebug* Hopefully i may get some bugs which i can fix...else i will be contacting the author. I hope Chriss muller will be reading this...and correcting me if i wrote something wrong. Thanks to all.
