Re: [Pharo-users] To get started with Gtoolkit and bloc

by Tudor Girba

Hi, I see where the issue comes from. The <gtExample> are like test methods that return an object. That object serves as example, but it is not necessarily a user facing object. Look at the picture below showing BlDragExamples>>#draggableInParent. BlDragExamples>>#draggableInParent calls several other methods that are marked as <gtExample>. In the second pane in the inspector you can see these inner methods being unfolded. These examples show how to setup the inner part, and how the pieces fit together. In this case, the outmost example is indeed an element that can be played with (you see it here on the third pane), but the inner objects can be as interesting through the various custom views. This way of working replaces testing and bridges the gap with documentation. You can learn about it here: https://medium.com/@Chis_Andrei/exemplifying-software-fd39a420472a Or if you load the full GToolkit, you can follow tutorials live in the environment by inspecting: GtInspector openOn: (GtDocumenter editorForPillar: (IceRepository repositoriesLocation / 'feenkcom'/ 'gtoolkit-examples' / 'doc' / 'tutorial' / 'examples-tutorial.pillarâ)) Cheers, Doru > On Sep 16, 2018, at 11:08 AM, Hilaire <hilaire(a)drgeo.eu> wrote: > > Le 16/09/2018 Ã 08:00, Tudor Girba a Ã©crit : >> The examples are found in methods annotated with <gtExample>.

It is tested in 6.1. It theoretically should be loadable in 7, too.

Indeed, it is ready. Thanks a lot for playing with it. This is some very cool job!

Looking good. Nice to get a feel for how the components interact in code. cheers -ben On Mon, 17 Sep 2018 at 03:09, stephan <stephan(a)stack.nl> wrote: > Bloc has improved a lot in the past year.

Re: [Pharo-users] Gemstone as a service?

by James Foster

My ESUG presentation (based on recent screencasts at https://www.youtube.com/user/JamesGFoster/videos <https://www.youtube.com/user/JamesGFoster/videos>) culminated with a live hands-on opportunity for people to connect to a cloud-hosted GemStone/S 64 Bit 3.4.2 server. As I expected, the question came up of future prospects for a real GaaS offering. So far Iâm not aware of anyone with official plans in this space, but Iâm personally interested in exploring the idea. Two questions arise from the point-of-view of any potential provider: (1) what is the demand; and (2) what would it look like from an operational perspective. So, in order to better answer those questions Iâd like to get in touch with people who would like to try out a GaaS solution. If I provide a dev/test environment for 45 days, will you will give me feedback? If you are interested, please respond privately with (a) your GemStone/S version (preferably 3.4.2), (b) the size of your repository (preferable less than 32 GB, ideally 8 GB or less), (c) what client IDE you use to interact with GemStone, and (d) a sorted list of preferred/acceptable server locations (from Amsterdam, Frankfurt, London, New York, San Francisco, and Toronto).

[Demo] Creating Bloc Widgets in Pharo

by stephan

Bloc has improved a lot in the past year. It is ready for your experiments. Here is one of mine: https://github.com/StephanEggermont/Presentations Bloc supports the creation of beautiful GUIs, with nice interactions. This one shows a number of different ways of using drag-and-drop. https://github.com/StephanEggermont/Presentations A video demonstrating it is at: https://vimeo.com/290163891

Hi, Thanks for trying. The examples are found in methods annotated with <gtExample>. What do you mean that "Several examples are not actionableâ?
