Hello, I do not know any recents efforts... but there is the old work of ACTalk: http://www-desir.lip6.fr/~briot/actalk/actalk.html This has been ported to Squeak back than. -- Marcus DenkerÂ --Â denker(a)acm.org http://www.marcusdenker.de

printOn: vs printString
by Alan Rodas June 25, 2011

June 25, 2011

Hello folks I was wondering why does Smalltlak prefer the printOn: aStream method over the printString method. As I work with Java and C# all the time, I'm used to define a printString like method where you return a string representing the object, and, today, having to do the same in smalltlak I unconsciously redefined the printString method. As soon as I realize that my collections were using printOn: instead of my redefined printSrting method for printing their contents, I wondered: Why was this decision taken? I mean, every other language seems more simple (from the end user point of view, as it does not require the user to understand streams at all), In the other hand, printOn: seems more versatile. Pointless question, I know, but I'm quite curious and I cannot seem to find anything about this, and I though that you guys may know. Cheers -- Alan Rodas Bonjour

Parsing XML into sorted elements
by Sean P. DeNigris June 23, 2011

June 23, 2011

I want to sort nodes of a certain parent node as they are parsed by XMLDOMParser. The following is what I tried so far. It causes the image to hang and CPU to sweat. I've put half a day in - before I continue, what's the best way to do this? Am I on the right path? It seems very complicated ( I almost feel like I'm working with Morphic ;-) ) The parent node is XMLPageElement which is a subclass of XMLElement, in which I overrode #nodesClass to return XMLSortedList. XMLSortedList is a subclass of XMLNodeList with the following overrides: initialize self nodes sortBlock: self sortBlock. sortBlock ^ [ :a :b | a < b ]. species ^ super XMLSortedList. There is also XMLSortedList class>>collectionClass ^ SortedCollection. The above overrides XMLOrderedList's use of OrderedCollection. I refactored XMLOrderedList by pulling all references to OrderedCollection into this method. Thanks.

Re: [Pharo-users] [COTDC] 68#2 MultiTextComposer
by Alain Plantec June 23, 2011

June 23, 2011

For TextComposer first ---------------------- Class intention I compose a collection of lines to fit the size of a physical container (especially according to the paragraph contrainer height, width and position). The result of my computation is a collection of TextLine that is ready to be managed by a paragraph to be drawn on a canvas in a particular screen area. Class collaborations I collaborate with a CompositionScanners for character measurement and with a TextContainer which holds the text to be composed Class main API #composeLinesFrom: argStart to: argStop delta: argDelta into: argLinesCollection priorLines: argPriorLines atY: argStartY textStyle: argTextStyle text: argText container: argContainer wantsColumnBreaks: argWantsColumnBreaks It is my main public method which returns the collection of TextLines (as the first element of an array) ---------------------- and then for MultiTextComposer ---------------------- See TextComposer comments first. I'm a specialization for the management of complex text (internationalized text). TextComposer and MultiTextComposer shoukl be merged in a near futur ----------------------
