[Pharo-users] Pharo 6 snap package

2017-06-13 Thread Alistair Grant
Hi Everyone, I've updated the Pharo 6 snap package for Ubuntu. The major advantages of using the snap package are: - No need to install all the 32 bit dependencies on a 64 bit system, they're all contained and isolated within the snap package. - Automagically distinguish between 32 bit and 64

Phil - to be clear, I think your underlying implementation is great - it provides a great building block. However, just as with databases, when you build something higher level on top - the question comes up about how much you hide that retrieval mechanism. The GTInspector argument is an intere

[Pharo-users] How to use frameworks like SDL2, GTK+ with Pharo?

2017-06-13 Thread Daniel Passaro
I'm a Pharo newbie. How can I use libraries like SDL2 or GTK+ from Pharo? Should this be done through FFI or a VM plugin? And in either case is there a guide to how to implement things using that technique?

Even if the image environment runs on SDL2, I want an SDL2 window I have free reign to draw on. I don't want to destroy the usability of the Pharo workspace when programming an application. If that is still too contentious, then I want SFML instead. The story of GTK+ is what I'm interested in. On

Image environment is not running on SDL2. SDL2 is a binding that is in image. An SFML binding is cool to do, especially CSFML. https://www.sfml-dev.org/download/csfml/ I want to do these in Bloc https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB_ibvUSN7mzUffhiay5g5GUHyJRO4DYr But CSFML is cool to do too
