I am using CzntOS 6.6 Linux for both client and server. Can't click twice
;-)

I haven't been using OSX anymore because there was always that annoying
difference in the environment that was bringing surprises at deployment
time.

There is a CentOS VM now but still not a first class zeroconf citizen,
which I feel is very bad when one sees that CentOS/RHEL is used a *hell of
a lot* in the enterprise. I need to work on that.

Re: [Pharo-users] Uncommon keyboard shortcuts on Windows

[Jan B.]

Hi

You're right, ctrl+shift+z works, thanks for showing me.

Except of select all (which is, however, pretty important to me), there is
just a little more of ctrl/alt chaos mentioned by Peter. In code editor part
of class browser works both alt and ctrl (like ctrl+b for browse it or
ctrl+d for do it), but not in list of packages/classes/protocols/methods,
where only alt does, like alt+x,p for remove package. Of course, there isn't
any native Windows shortcut for remove package, but it would be nice to be
able to use ctrl there, too, to unify it. Another reason for using ctrl is
that is is much easily keeping pressed for me, but it may be just me :)

And last thing are means of selecting multiple items in class browser. It is
standard in Windows to be able to select everything between currently
selected element and clicked one when holding shift (which works just fine
everywhere), but adding single item to selection also works only with alt,
but not ctrl (like in Windows).
And this adding single items with ctrl (I mean alt here) does not work at
all with classes/protocols/methods, only with packages, but shift-selecting
works fine there. This one, however, might not be related to shortcuts.

Re: [Pharo-users] quick poll - which OS do you use for Pharo?

[kilon alios]

you are not alone. As a matter of fact my iMac's MacOS runs also windows 8
and ubuntu 14 in the Virtualbox VM. I was tempted to install windows as
dual boot on my iMac because of a game I really like (Smite) but the
temptation has not been strong enough. In any case supporting most
platforms is my goal as (I assume) is the goal of most pharoers. Windoom
will remain a necessary evil for a long long time.

Yes I completely forgot that linux reigns supreme on servers. Makes sense
now with the mandatory web dev.

[Pharo-users] DynaCASE

[Peter Uhnák]

Hi Serge,

I didn't want to hijack the original thread (more than I've already done),
so I made a new one instead.

Looks really impressive Peter !

Thanks! I'll guess I will have to start using twitter now. :)

Apparently there is an icon bug when you don't use the Eclipse set of icons.

Petri Nets are being developed by my colleague Jan Blizničenko (

Right now I'm working on BORM (Business and Object Relation Modeling)
http://ccm.fit.cvut.cz/methodologies/borm/ (some of the materials are in
Czech, but you can see diagrams in the first link in our current
Eclipse-based tool); the following will be DEMO
http://ccm.fit.cvut.cz/methodologies/demo/

I can imagine that it wouldn't be that complicated to extend current FSM to
have activity diagrams (it's just two extra elements), so if you are
interested in that I can look into it.
Also I still have to migrate documentation to github so other people can
extend it if they want.

Thanks!
Peter

[Pharo-users] GTSpotter with no results

Hi,

I would like to know if some of you already got this problem: when I open 
GTSpotter (with the shortcut) and I start to type quickly (before any result 
appears) in the text I'm searching for, I get no result at all. Even If I 
remove all characters from the search field, GTSpotter still presents an empty

I also experience this daily, it happens when I start typing immediately, so

As a sidenote this sometimes happens to me with spec windows, so maybe some

Yes, it is. I used on a daily base. It does not implement all of the rfc 
standard but usual stuff is there. I use it like this

AnyClass>>log: aString
(aString asLog tag: 'event-server') emit

The SystemLogger emits a log object. Setting the tag sets the tag in the syslog 
protocol. Based on that information the logfiles are filtered on the central 
server.

It might be worth to have a look at each others code. The SyslogSender in the 
SystemLogger would be a good fit to utilize another syslog client. The 
SystemLogger SysLogSender just needs to be a bridge to any cllient.

[Pharo-users] Gitfiletree unstable on Windows

[Jan B.]

Hello

This is me again with problems with gitfiletree. In general it works just
fine, but in about 50 % cases it crashes VM. It happens to me when loading
via 

Gofer new
url: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/Pharo/MetaRepoForPharo40/main';
configurationOf: 'GitFileTree';
loadDevelopment.

Metacello new baseline:...; repository:'gitfiletree:///...'; load.

or when opening repository in Monticello.

Sometimes the crash is handled and dmp file is generated, but sometimes just
Pharo.exe stops.
Using Windows 7 64-bit, VM tried 420 (latest) from 2015-03-26 and stable
from 2014-05-15, images tried multiple between 40546 to 40588 and also
30864.

Here are links for dmp files:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/txbxi77a4nthyxg/Pharo_dmp.zip
crash1 and 2 are from stable VM and 3 and 4 from latest VM, all from image
40588.

Using git from http://git-scm.com/ .

Would be glad to help any further if you need.

Jan

Re: [Pharo-users] DynaCASE

[Jan B.]

Hi

Thank you for CC-ing me, Peter, since I don't watch Pharo developers mailing
list.

About petri nets... My main goal is to implement simulation for DynaCASE
(i.e. "make it move") and Petri nets are for me more like a tool for trying
simulation prototypes than goal itself. I'm currently stuck with them on
developing simulation itself and on Roassal (visualisation engine from Moose
which we use) problems with composite shapes.

Anyway, Serge, I will improve them in time and I would be glad to hear what
do you expect from it - what should it support, do etc.
Can't promise anything, but it might help us both.

Yes Jan.
Using GitFileTree in Windows is quite a task.

On Thierry's suggestion, I had tried the following and it worked.

"An alternative solution is to load directly from github, with:

Metacello new
  baseline: 'FileTree';
  repository: 'github://dalehenrich/filetree:pharo4.0_dev/repository';
  load: 'Git' "

Try this if it helps :)

I thought that you needed to have GitFileTree loaded to have github:// and
Git support. Is that false? Does that mean that github:// (bitbucket://)
doesn't use git at all?

right. It downloads a zip file with all sources from github and then a simple 
filetree repository is available.

Re: [Pharo-users] Uncommon keyboard shortcuts on Windows

[Laura Risani]

I forget to mention close-tab shortcut (ctrl+w) which is common to Windows.

I agree (in case you tacitly said so) keyboard shortcuts are really
important for usability and i agree select-all is really important. Related
to this, there is a select-word shortcut (alt+space) which selects the word
the caret is at, afaik Windows lacks natively this useful shortcut.

I didn't know you that multiple selecting items on class browsers works
pressing Alt Gr (for me left and right alt keys work differently), it's
nice you mentioned it   :).

I would start with streams and regular expressions. If that's not
powerful enough I would use PetitParser. If that's not fast enough, I
would try SmaCC and compare speed.

Re: [Pharo-users] what to use for simple parsing

[Peter Uhnák]

Thanks all,

in the end I've used PetitParser and I was really surprised and happy how
easy and far I've got with it.

TBH using regular expressions in Pharo feels extremely uncomfortable to me
compared to Perl or Ruby, but maybe that was design decision by the author
to not be too hacky.

So at least to me PetitParser feels like a more practical regex library
than Regex itself.

Nicolai Hess said the issue is with the path length with the API used in

Short of modifying the windows Pharo VM, a solution would be for 
filetree to read directly the repository from the github zip archive 
(without unzipping that archive). The code to do that is in gitfiletree 
in fact ;)


There is also a filesystem-like layer for archives somewhere inside 
Pharo, but, I do believe it doesn't work (I'm sure I tried it... and if 
I'm not using it, there is a good reason).

[Pharo-users] Spring CampSmalltalk

[Sebastian Heidbrink]

Hi Smalltalk enthusiasts!

Since Tim and I were already asked for a second CampSmalltalk this 
spring we decided hold another camp in Nanaimo at the end of April.


Last Camp in Nanaimo was amazingly successful and everyone had much fun.
If you’re in the general pacific north-west region do consider coming along.

When: Friday & Saturday April 25-26th

Location: Makerspace Nanaimo
2221 McGarrigle Rd
Nanaimo

their website:  makerspacenanaimo.org

Schedule/Presentations:
Non! We have the Space all weekend long and do not need to leave the 
place this time!


If you are interested in
... any kind of ScratchOnPI projects
... combining your Smalltalk project with any other peripheral device
... would like to try a different Smalltalk out
... just want to chat and meet old and new friends

then this should be the perfect weekend to do this and come over to 
Makerspace in Nanaimo.


Please contact us directly if you have questions regarding travel or 
accomodationa. We got some valuable feedback from last CampSmalltalk's 
participants.


Please let us also know if you’re interested.

Re: [Pharo-users] Issue on enabling developer options in Pharo Launcher

[rohit sharma]

hey Damien,
before there was a confusion that pharo launcher is not saving proxy
settings whenever we close it and we again launch the pharo-launcher we
again have to add proxy settings. But the reason for launcher not saving
the settings was I was closing the launcher using close button ('X' on top
left side), later Nicolai Hess told me that if I use quit button (on bottom
right) then launcher will save the proxy settings.

[Pharo-users] Proxies: Subclassing nil

[Sean P. DeNigris]

>From "Design Patterns" pg. 215:

You can make[8] generic proxies in Smalltalk by defining classes whose
superclass is nil and defining the doesNotUnderstand: method to handle
messages.

[8] Almost all classes ultimately have Object as their superclass. Hence
this is the same as saying "defining a class that doesn't have Object as its
superclass."

but in Pharo:
nil subclass: #MyProxy
instanceVariableNames: ''
classVariableNames: ''
category: ''
-> MessageNotUnderstood: receiver of
"subclass:instanceVariableNames:classVariableNames:category:" is nil

[Pharo-users] Cormas Pharo Port v0.2 available

[Serge Stinckwich]

Dear all,

I made available a new version (v0.2) of Cormas on Pharo.
CORMAS is a multi-agent simulation engine that is running on
VisualWorks Smalltalk:
http://cormas.cirad.fr/indexeng.htm

You can download this version by using the last Moose 5.1 image :
https://ci.inria.fr/moose/job/moose-5.1/

and doing in a Playground:

Gofer new
   url: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/SergeStinckwich/CORMAS/main';
   configurationOf: 'Cormas';
   loadStable.

At the moment, nothing is working ;-)
Almost classes of the original VW version are now in Pharo except some
classes like Jun* that will I guess disappear for the new version if
we use ROASSAL instead. I will start to clean the code now in order to
be able to run as simple model like Fire Automata model

All the code is also available on github here: https://github.com/cormas/cormas

If some of you want to be added in the CORMAS github org, please tell me:
https://github.com/cormas
I will feel less alone ;-)

You can join the mailing-list to help here:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/cormas-dev

Re: [Pharo-users] Proxies: Subclassing nil

[Clément Bera]

Hey Sean,

Now to create a proxy you need to subclass ProtoObject and not nil.

This was changed years ago to avoid some issues. An example of issue that
existed: when you subclass nil, as
#doesNotUnderstand: is not implemented by default on your proxy, any proxy
created receiving a message would crash the VM if you had not overridded
#doesNotUnderstand:. Another example is that when you iterate over memory
using #nextObject, if the proxy does not answer it you can end with severe
VM crashes. In these examples I am talking about the expected VM behavior
and not about bugs.

So basically the purpose of ProtoObject was to limit the number of VM
crashes when playing with proxies / ProtoObjects, instead having a default
behavior for several messages such as #doesNotUnderstand: or nextObject.

Note that the IDE support for ProtoObject is limited as ProtoObject API is
very restricted so it does not have methods such as #inspect, ... That's
also on purpose because Proxies may not implement introspection methods.

Yes, subclassing from nil was never a good idea.

Marea (kind of extended Ghost proxies) proxies deal with object listing. If
you load Marea code, see class side of #MARAbstractProxy (#allInstances,
#allInstancesDo: etc).

Yes. Ghost proxies provided debugger facilities (printing, inspecting,
debugging, exploring, etc) which could be dynamically either enabled or
disabled. If enabled, you could debug proxies without intercepting the
"debugging" methods.

Hi Serge!

I’ve tried to load Cormas, but I got an error about some missing dependencies…

Excellent serge!
Keep pushing.

Dear all,

I made available a new version (v0.2) of Cormas on Pharo.
CORMAS is a multi-agent simulation engine that is running on
VisualWorks Smalltalk:
http://cormas.cirad.fr/indexeng.htm

You can download this version by using the last Moose 5.1 image :
https://ci.inria.fr/moose/job/moose-5.1/

and doing in a Playground:

Gofer new
url: 'http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/SergeStinckwich/CORMAS/main';
configurationOf: 'Cormas';
loadStable.

At the moment, nothing is working ;-)
Almost classes of the original VW version are now in Pharo except some
classes like Jun* that will I guess disappear for the new version if
we use ROASSAL instead. I will start to clean the code now in order to
be able to run as simple model like Fire Automata model

All the code is also available on github here: https://github.com/cormas/cormas

If some of you want to be added in the CORMAS github org, please tell me:
https://github.com/cormas
I will feel less alone ;-)

Mariano spent a couple of years on it so...

Hi
if you want to build proxy look at Ghost library from Mariano Martinez
I not know right repository. Maybe 
this:http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~CAR/Ghost/ 
 or 
http://ss3.gemstone.com/ss/Ghost


2015-03-31 19:51 GMT+03:00 Sean P. DeNigris >:


From "Design Patterns" pg. 215:

You can make[8] generic proxies in Smalltalk by defining
classes whose
superclass is nil and defining the doesNotUnderstand: method to handle
messages.

[8] Almost all classes ultimately have Object as their
superclass. Hence
this is the same as saying "defining a class that doesn't have
Object as its
superclass."

but in Pharo:
nil subclass: #MyProxy
instanceVariableNames: ''
classVariableNames: ''
category: ''
-> MessageNotUnderstood: receiver of
"subclass:instanceVariableNames:classVariableNames:category:" is nil

Cheers,
Sean
