Thanks Sebastian! Apparently, it is related to UTF encoding. The following code works well c := (ZnEasy get: 'https://github.com/sudar/pig-samples/raw/master/data/tweets.csv') contents. c := ZnCharacterEncoder utf8 decodeBytes: c. content := c readStream. lines := (NeoCSVReader on: content) skipHeader; upToEnd.

Issue with NeoCSVReader

Hi!

accepting method without creating variable and code generation
by Peter Uhnak June 28, 2016

June 28, 2016

Hi, is it possible to accept a method without creating instance variable? E.g. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Object subclass: #MyObject slots: { } classVariables: { } category: 'Category' ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ MyObject>>addValue: aValue container add: aValue ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Now normally when I would try to compile the method I would get the "Unknown variable 'container'" warning that will force me to either create temporary or instance variable; I would like to somehow ignore that, because the method will actually never get called. My objective is use this method as a template for code generation, so I would then take this method, apply some code transformation and compile it into different object. Of course I could do ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ MyObject>>addValueTemplate ^ 'MyObject>>addValue: aValue container add: aValue' ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ But then I would lose code highlighting, which is quite error-prone for more complex snippets. If you have a better approach, I am all ears. :) Thanks, Peter

parameters of the virtual machine
by Alexandre Bergel June 28, 2016

June 28, 2016

Hi, The Cog virtual machine expose some very useful parameters. However, some of them are a bit obscure to me. For example, what are the following parameters? What do they mean? 46 size of machine code zone, in bytes 59 number of check event calls since startup (read-only) 60 number of stack page overflows since startup (read-only; Cog VMs only) 61 number of stack page divorces since startup (read-only; Cog VMs only) Is there a way to get access to the cache? How many caches does Cog has? I guess it has - a method call cache (associating (object,symbol) -> compiled method - a cache for the JIT-compiled methods right? Are there other cache? How can I access them? In particular to query about their fill.

[dtabase] Looking for a report band editor
by sitepublique＠free.fr June 27, 2016

June 27, 2016

Hi, I'm new with pharo and smalltalk and I would like to use it to start a new database application. But I need to find out a report band editor and I can't find anything about this into the pharo projets catalog... A report band exxemple is like : XtraReports : https://documentation.devexpress.com/#XtraReports/CustomDocument2590 Lazreport (LAzarus/pascal) : http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/LazReport_Tutorial etc. Do you know a report band editor with pharo (or other smalltalk implementation ?) Thank you for your help.

Re: [Pharo-users] If you have to do web data scraping, what tool would you use?
by Andy Burnett June 27, 2016

June 27, 2016

I had a similar question, which led me to the Webdriver project (now part of selenium). I haven't done any experiments yet, but the idea of driving the browser via its API is appealing. The Parasol project says it is a Webdriver implementation for Pharo, and it looks quite exciting. The build is currently failing, but that seems to be a gemstone problem. https://github.com/SeasideSt/Parasol/blob/master/README.md If you have time to play with it I would love to hear your experience.

Xtreams: Debugging Grammars

Xtreams: Extending Bootstrap
by Sean P. DeNigris June 26, 2016

June 26, 2016

I copy-pasted the addr-spec grammar from rfc5322 and was converting it to Xtreams format. One PITA was converting all the decimal values to hex e.g. "%d97" -> "\x000061". I wanted to extend the Xtream grammar to handle "/d97". I extended PEGParserGenerator and PEGParserParser with the following: Escape: backslash character: character hexes: hexes ... character = $d ifTrue: [^(String withAll: hexes) asNumber asCharacter] But I couldn't figure out how to put this extension into action. PEGParser>>parserBootstrap has a comment "This method was generated with the following code: PEGParser parserPEG parse: 'Grammar' stream: PEGParser grammarPEG actor: PEGParserGenerator new", but evaluating that after extending produced the same output as the original. What am I missing? Thanks. ----- Cheers, Sean -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/Xtreams-Extending-Bootstrap-tp4902579.html Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
