There's no such option. I've created File Dialog ( https://github.com/peteruhnak/file-dialog ) which will be in P7 when I find the time to go through the incorporation process... which practically means September... Peter On Thu, Aug 17, 2017 at 01:05:25PM +0200, Guillermo Polito wrote: > On

Re: [Pharo-users] [Ann] Blog entry about using Pharo / Smalltalk to build a bot

there was one claim you made in that post that got me thinking ""No one else knows Smalltalk." So I wonder how many developers amount to "no one". Now my data is questionable to say the least but I dont think I am very far from the truth. According to a quick estimate I found online there are 1

Re: [Pharo-users] [ANN] PharoLambda 1.5 - Pharo running on AWS Lambda now with saved Debug sessions via S3

Actually it looks like that extra 1.5mb is not worth having as It seems that something does end up using the class organisation and so it must recompute when the image is launched. Tim > On 17 Aug 2017, at 13:07, Tim Mackinnon wrote: > > Just thought I would report back a bit more on this -

Just thought I would report back a bit more on this - The Unicode change doesn’t work in my case (possibly not for command line Pharo as well) as I get an error where OS filename’s need unicode support (actually I think this is where its trying to write to stdout, but I didn’t dig more into th

Re: [Pharo-users] How to find where pharo is killing processor power?

Are you aware of the profile tools inside Pharo ? They capture execution and offer detailed analysis of how much time is spent on each task. One of it can be found in World Menu -> Tools -> Time Profiler Generally speaking a while loop that runs all the time without any kind of delays is a very po

Re: [Pharo-users] Encoding Login information in your image (safely)

I am clueless when it comes to encryption and safety , so as you would expect I will offer my opinion on this. I do not think that encryption from the side of Pharo would be a good idea because having the image you have access to everything . Including any kind of context even its not stored in a

Re: [Pharo-users] Parser failure on FFI pragmas declaration in Pharo 5

Yes. Also simple solution can be to override compiler of problem classes to return old compiler. I know it is better to rewrite code but it can be not simple task when there are a lot of ffi-methods. 2017-08-17 13:17 GMT+02:00 Guillermo Polito : > > > On Thu, Aug 17, 2017 at 1:09 PM, Denis Kud

Re: [Pharo-users] Parser failure on FFI pragmas declaration in Pharo 5

Hi, Thank you Denis and Esteban for your help. I agree, the way to go is to rewrite correct UFFI bindings. Denis' solution seems fragile. About my points 3 and 4 I think I was not clear. I did not want to force old FFI syntax. I explained why I thought that the way Pharo 5 was failing at depreca

[Pharo-users] Loading and saving packages to filetree repos

Hoi, I want to have a quick "cheat mode" for loading and saving the Smalltalk packages in my project. This is to make life easy for newbies who are not very familiar with Monticello and Metacello. The "cheat" is to assume that there is one filetree:// repository that contains all of the relevant

Re: [Pharo-users] Parser failure on FFI pragmas declaration in Pharo 5

hi, Old way to do FFI calls is no longer supported on Pharo, but this deprecation is very old (since Pharo 2). Now, in Pharo 4 we replaced the compiler (for OpalCompiler) and we no longer supported “pragma-like” calls, in part because they are “invalid” pragma calls (they do not agrees with pra

Herby, back when Alan was maintaining Glorp, he took care for portability, he even maintained the port to VA Smalltalk, IIRC. Niall and Tim(?) at Cincom also try not to break any dialect in their changes and they also work on keeping things portable. I am not sure there ever was any (semi-)au

Re: [Pharo-users] Parser failure on FFI pragmas declaration in Pharo 5

Hi. I think your problem related to the old FFI syntax. In Pharo UFFI is the way to do external calls. To enable old FFI syntax try to switch compiler: Smalltalk compilerClass: Compiler I used this trick to port some small library which was based on old FFI. I made migration manually but maybe t
