VMs version name
by Francois Stephany Feb. 2, 2013

Feb. 2, 2013

Is there a way to identify a VM with a version number like an image? When I download the latest 'Pharo.app' it says "Pharo VM 6.0-pre". It's the same name that the VM I downloaded one month ago. Is there something like the image name (e.g, "2.0-497") I can use to tell someone to use a given VM version? Cheers, Fa

Script Manager

In Pharo 1.4 you just open the configuration browser: - either by evaluating "MetacelloConfigurationBrowser open" or via menu "Tools"->"Configuration Browser" - when it is open search for "ScriptManager" in the list of available Configurations, then select it and right click to choose "Install Configuration (Stable version)" from the context menu - now go to "Tools" -> "ScriptManager" Same procedure in Pharo 2.0 Bye T.

Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the world menu from anywhere? How about adding a button to the taskbar?

Hello, I have this piece of code (taken from ProfStef). How do i programmatically get the order in which the objects are executed by Squeak. I know the order of execution from smalltalk documentation. But what if i need this information inside an app i'm building. tutorial: aTutorialClass lesson: aSelector | tutorial | tutorial := aTutorialClass new. self player tutorial: tutorial. self tutorial: aTutorialClass lessonAt: (tutorial indexOfLesson: aSelector). Thank you! -- View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/How-do-i-list-the-execution-order-of-statements-insid… Sent from the Pharo Smalltalk Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Pharo 2.0 - System Error Handling Failed
by Andy Burnett Jan. 30, 2013

Jan. 30, 2013

I am running the Pharo 2.0 beta, and I am getting a lot of System Error Handling Failed events. Is this simply a product of the beta status, or have I somehow enabled some kind of debug switch? For example, in a workspace I execute a doit on: fd := FileDialogWindow new. fn := fd openInWorld. When I click OK in the dialog box, I get the System Error screen. On other occasions I get the screen, press space to continue, then I get the debug window, and when attempting to debug it bounces me back to the System Error screen. Normal behaviour for the beta, or operator error on my part? Cheers Andy

Getting started with Gemstone for Pharo users
by Bernat Romagosa Jan. 29, 2013

Jan. 29, 2013

Hi list, I've heard the "develop in Pharo, deploy in Gemstone" idea a million times, and I'd like to understand how people proceed in real-world cases. I've done my homework and I've watched and read a lot of beginner tutorials, but I still have lots of pieces missing. Here's our scenario: We have a web app, built on Pharo 1.4 and Iliad 0.9.1.2. Currently, we handle persistence on the image and we have a scheduler process doing regular Fuel backups every 10 minutes, and we also keep daily backups in case things go wrong. The app is starting to gain momentum, and it feels like things are going to start being way too sluggish soon, so we need to scale. We've been trying many different persistence approaches, but we'd love to stay inside Smalltalk. We hate having to flatten and pump back our objects all the time. Also, REST apis to any kind of DB are not good enough for us, every o(n) operation becomes unbearably slow, as n REST calls must be sent out and n answers received. In short, we want to use Gemstone, as we've read it's best for complex, intertwined Smalltalk models, and it scales like crazy. We'd be okay with Pharo being the "dealer" between clients and the DB, but as I understand, GemTools can't be installed on Pharo 1.4, so we're kind of stuck with an old Pharo 1.1.1 image, in which Iliad 0.9.1.2 can't be installed. What's the solution here? How does one proceed to migrate an app of this kind? We've developed in Pharo, now how does one accomplish the "deploy in Gemstone" part? Any pointers to documentation, blog posts or whatever will be so much appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance, Bernat. -- Bernat Romagosa.

Re: [Pharo-users] Phaas - anyone interested in setting up Pharo as a Service?
by Andy Burnett Jan. 29, 2013

Jan. 29, 2013

Thanks James, That would be really helpful. If you haven't sent the email already. I would be really interested to know if they could support Gemstone. That, combined with fuel+tanker could make a fantastic dev environment.
