Re: [Pharo-users] SUnit - works in its own space?

by James Foster

SUnit is just Smalltalk code and class variables are just objects. If you modify an object it is modified. My approach to this problem is to modify the "singleton" pattern so that a class has both a "default" instance and a "current" instance. The #'current' method returns the current value if it is not nil, otherwise it returns the default value. The SUnit #'setUp' method sends a new instance as the argument to #'current:', and the #'tearDown' method sets current to nil. Most of you code asks for the current value; this will be the default or the test instance, depending on whether or not the tests are running.

SUnit - works in its own space?

by sergio_101

a quick question on SUnit.. do tests run in their own space? say i have a model like User.. User has a class variable that is an ordered collection of of users.. User userList <- should give me and ordered collection.. in my tests, if i add users to User userList.. then, in a workspace, i inspect: User userList later, i see that my tests users have in fact been added to the ordered collection.. is this expected? thanks! -- ---- peace, sergio photographer, journalist, visionary http://www.ThoseOptimizeGuys.com http://www.CodingForHire.com http://www.coffee-black.com http://www.painlessfrugality.com http://www.twitter.com/sergio_101 http://www.facebook.com/sergio101

In this example #someMethod: will > receive an announcement. In Pharo 2.0, it could be interesting to use the weak variant of the subscription. SystemAnnouncer uniqueInstance weak on: ClassAdded send: #someMethod: to: toSomeObject. To create a weak link to it. A convenient method when you develop those things is: SystemAnnouncer uniqueInstance unsubscribe: toSomeObject. Because you usually spend time refactoring the #someMethod: above, and it helps knowing how to remove existing triggers. And a nice tool is to look at the announcements as they are produced, with SystemAnnouncer uniqueInstance open These are the tools I found usefull when tracing the system notifications. What I missed? A browser able to show who is subscribing to what.

Re: [Pharo-users] about Metacello package loading order

by Robert Shiplett

and thanks very much for posting your update - and with the summary on that directive I believe that many experienced people see config and build/strip and 'base image' issues as the real challenges to Smalltalk in industrial settings ( the success stories may fail to reveal the pain that was endured - the usual caveat) ( even if back in the day the IT pundits carried on about memory footprint, bytecode and VM, not 'C' compiler, so why not LISP yada-yada ) Native widgets, 3D and all the jQuirky web-tricks pale when a mission critical app gets attention from top brass in a corporation because of a bad build or a config snaffu that "would never happen" if we used { here read Erlang, Gnu D or whatever ) What is not seen is the utter madness of trying to get an Eclipse config that is correct (useable code can be committed to a repo from that workspace) when arriving on any large team Java project running on Eclipse in a corporate setting where there is new work, custom work and maintenance. Not that getting started with an appropriate build does not take more than 5 business days often enough .... ( a scandal, yes, but it just keeps repeating - as any gray-haired St contractor can tell you ... ) The 'C' and 'C++' myth as you surely know is called "configure-make" ... If anything like this had been required to land 747's at Hong Kong Kai-tak a lot of people would have been crossing the Pacific in ships and clipper ships ;-) ... and forget about that cardiac bypass surgery at Cleveland Clinic. ( see redundancy and reliability in gauges vs CRM in the cockpit - and some tower controllers in the past who would be advising you that your gear were, in fact, down ;-) Thankfully, the typical Chevy or Toyoto mechanic does not have to do a build to get your car back to you with new or adjusted brakes ;-) ( yes, ABS - and the Smalltalk analog being ... ) Someone should tell the Adobe FLASH team ... NOT. I would go on, but I have to update my Adobe Reader ... thanks again Sent with neither Adobe AIR not Microsoft SilverLight on the box - and after only one re-boot fo a DLL update ;-) " Now let's reset JAVA_HOME to point at 1.4.4299 so that I can get this Ruby Gem to install ! " R no PCRE used to spell check the above rant no devotee to Scala or Clojure should reply with a flame on this list : if you think you are here, you are actually lost in a Feedax Cessna Caravan at dusk in a UT box canyon at low altitude and high airspeed with BINGO fuel and a Ctr of Lift a bit too near or sliding behind your C of G and now he asks "Was it you who tied down the freight or was it me ?"

Re: [Pharo-users] about Metacello package loading order

by Usman Bhatti

The problem was resolved. Thanks to Stef and Marianno for their effort to look at the code. The package was actually loaded in two configurations and I was not calling requires: in all locations (duplicate code is bad even in configuration ;-). So, a bit of cleanup resolved the problem. Good thing is that now I know about this directive that helps debugging package loading.
