Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo Morphic View Application Framework

I will provide this by the weekend The code though has tests which are quite explanatory and the classside method of the ApplicationFrameworkdDocumentation has 6 odd methods that lead on from intent, what Pharo provides which maybe leveraged in future if not now and the current implementation as well as a roadmap. I will read your specs and implementation to merge the stuff I envisage with On Wed, Feb 1, 2012 at 5:14 AM, Benjamin < benjamin.vanryseghem.pharo@gmail.com> wrote:

If you have around the pdf you are talking about on your website, I will be glad to read it.

Thanks in advance ;)

Obliged for feedback ...

For details and links..

Sharing this little framework that should go some way to ease creating large applications ( currently morphic oriented).

AbstractMorphicView subclass: #MyNewView …

#createMorphsSpecs

^{

‘panel1′ -> #SomeOtherView. ‘label1′ -> #LabelMorph. ‘text1′ -> #PluggableTextMorph. ‘button1′ -> #PluggableButtonMorph. }

layoutSpecsArray

^{ ‘widgetNameInMorphsDictionary’ -> { #fractions -> (0 @ 0 corner: 1 @ 0.5). ” fractional value 0 to 1 range ” #offsets -> (10 @ 10 corner: 0 @ 0). ” offsets relative to the fractional position ” }.

“… add other widgetspecs…” }

Thats it.. you should have a prototype UI neatly laid out.. and then specify: #morphsPrimaryPropertiesSpecs and #morphsSecondaryPropertiesSpecs for full functionality that composes views inside views and scales well.

AbstractSimpleMorphicView can make it simpler for TableLayout stuff without requiring #layoutSpecsArray.

..... the main post has other details and links to package...
