How to deploy a Pharo 2.0 Desktop application?

by Torsten Bergmann

Maybe my old description from Squeak times can help here a little bit: Win32 Custom Product Building http://squeakvm.org/win32/custom.html You may also be able to use http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_Hacker on an existing VM executable I guess. There is no service yet to build a custom VM. Also have a look at ImageLocker-Core-tbn.1.mcz from http://squeaksource.com/PharoGoodies/ Also look at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3714631/adding-stuff-to-run-on-startup-o… Bye T.

I am interested in that as well. As far as I am concerned, I'd go for a custom build of VM for such windows related things but I 'd like to know if there is a better way.

How to deploy a Pharo 2.0 Desktop application?

by MartinW

I want to deploy a Pharo 2.0 Desktop application to a dozen of people using Windows and MacOS computers. A couple of questions arise: - How to properly start up and shut down my application when the Pharo image starts and shuts down? - Can i give the Pharo window a custom size and make it non-resizable? - How to hide development tools, world menu, global keyboard shortcuts, etc.? - How to make a nice One-Click-Application, that preferably should have the name and icon of the application and not be called Pharo (not because i do not love Pharo, but because people won't understand :) - How to automate all the above tasks, so i can easily build a new One-Click-Application again and again. - What do i state as system requirements?

Thank you guys. I think I'll go with Norbert's proposal, but after I stabilize all this mess I have :) Norbert, is the NTedContextDispatcherDelegate public and available somewhere? Can you explain more what it does, because AFAIK ZnStaticFileServerDelegate already does a proper use of the etag.

Re: [Pharo-users] [Pharo-project] [squeak-dev] GSoC13: Google Summer of Code started, your ideas please!

by Guillermo Polito

And another one: Level: intermediate Possible mentor: Santiago Bragagnolo Possible second mentor: Guillermo Polito Description: Gamification is becoming more and more popular in a lot of applications. What about gamify the pharo development process? You get points by adding comments, fixing bugs or answering questions. You can be a comment healer, a bug slayer, a Zinc magician. The intend of this project is to build an application that integrates with the Pharo development process tools (issue tracker, smalltalkhub, stack overflow) and provides a gamified experience, so we get more and more motivated to code. Technical Details: This project implies the creation of an application which communicates with different applications APIs and perform some analysis on them such as running source code Lint rules. Additionally, this application should have a web frontend. Benefits to the Student - Use a highly reflective dynamic language - Learn to develop a complex application architecture with several communicating components - Learn about ramification concepts - Learn about an open source project development and integration process, such as Pharo - Learn web application development techniques Benefits to the Community - have a platform to organize activities and events around the Pharo development - be more motivated to participate into the development for rewards such as experience, badges and abilities On Wed, Mar 13, 2013 at 4:40 PM, Guillermo Polito <guillermopolito(a)gmail.com > wrote: > Hi Janko! > > We have this: > > Level: intermediate > Possible mentor: Guillermo Polito > > Possible second mentor: Esteban Lorenzano > > Description: DBXTalk database driver nowadays uses a native library > called OpenDBX.
