Re: [Pharo-users] Questions about Magma

by Stuart Herring

Hi Thushar, Magma's developer mostly uses Squeak, so the latest version of Pharo that Magma works more or less out-of-the-box on is 1.3. I made a start on porting it to 1.4, and then 2.0 but then promptly ran out of time. However, as far as I'm aware the porting should mostly consist of the change to SystemAnnouncer, and Filesystem as you mentioned. Magma has a pretty comprehensive test suite, so it should be relatively easy to verify any porting effort. I know that people seem to be gravitating towards other solutions, as StÃ©phane mentioned, but Magma is still an excellent tool, and is ridiculously simple to use. I like it enough that for my own projects, I'm still using Pharo 1.3 so I can use it, until the desire to use 2.0 and beyond finally pushes me into completing my porting effort ;) If you do want to give the porting a go yourself, I'd suggest posting to the Magma list. Chris is very supportive of porting efforts. Regards, Stuart On 4 June 2013 22:32, Thushar G R <thushar.gr(a)gmail.com> wrote: > Hi all, > > > I am new here in this list.

Re: [Pharo-users] Questions about Magma

Hi Thushar I do not know if magma is working on Pharo. Now I suggest you to have a look at MongoDB and MongoTalk. Because this is what the people around are using. You have also voyage that serialize object described with magritte in mongotalk. Now we should write some docs, but it would be better if people would write a little tutorial each with their libraries like svn does so well. Stef > Hi all, > > > I am new here in this list.

Thanks. I really do not feel like creating a ton of boilerplate code when such a tool exists...

Re: [Pharo-users] Tests not recognized by the tester.

So all tests have to start with test. It works now. Its written in the book. I don't how I missed it :) Thank you Sven -----Original Message----- From: Pharo-users [mailto:pharo-users-bounces@lists.pharo.org] On Behalf Of Sven Van Caekenberghe Sent: Tuesday, June 04, 2013 2:12 PM To: Any question about pharo is welcome Subject: Re: [Pharo-users] Tests not recognized by the tester.
