About classVariables

stephane ducasse — 2008-10-12T20:11:19

Hi to my stupefaction I discovered that the classVariables of a class are not the same as the ones of its metaclass. TheRoot classVarNames ~= TheRoot class classVarNames Does any body have some ideas why this is like that? For me this is a conceptual bug. Stef

Re: [MC] unload action and postload actions

Matthew Fulmer — 2008-10-11T15:40:04

Also, anytime a class is removed, it's #unload method is called, just like it's #initialize method is called on load

Re: OutputDebugString() or equivalent?

The Logging package was developed with this in mind, it uses SimpleLog or Toothpick as a back end. I am not sure what support either of those have for windows debugging/tracing. They support Syslog and logging to files. SimpleLog also supports log rotation. Keith

Re: [MC] unload action and postload actions

Keith Hodges — 2008-10-11T14:31:15

There is a "Scripts" button in the Monticello Browser. This is supported by Monticello 1.0 , but it depends upon whether or not the loaded version of PackageInfo supports it. Monticello 1.5/1.6 as loaded by http://installer.pbwiki.com/LevelPlayingField support them. The scripts are added as properties of PackageInfo. There additional hooks in MC1.5 however you add the code as class methods, and you can add the code as a class method on someone elses package if you want to add/remove instVars to someone elses class Methods are named like so: #mcAfterInstall* #mcAfterRemoval* #mcOnInstall* #mcOnUninstall* best regards Keith

[MC] unload action and postload actions

Dear List, I was wondering whether there is a way to specify unload action and postload actions when saving a monticello package? Cheers, Alexandre

Help with font rendering

Andreas Raab — 2008-10-11T05:56:22

Folks - We (Qwaq) are looking at integrating native font rendering on Windows and Mac in our clients. The main reason for this is that one of the major differences in look is using "non-standard" fonts (all of the currently available technologies -incl. freetype- have that property). If you know the Squeak font subsystem and native rendering on Windows and/or Mac and are available for some consulting drop me a note off-line. We are looking for a short to medium term engagement in this area. Cheers, - Andreas

Why not just use OutputDebugString? Smalltalk>>outputDebugString: aString Cheers, - Andreas Bill Schwab wrote:

OutputDebugString() or equivalent?

Bill Schwab — 2008-10-11T00:29:52

I am still struggling with a service that either will start and immediately stop, or will run but appears unable to listen on port 8080. Usually with things like this, I simply litter code with some type of tracing (often OutputDebugString() calls on Windows), and try to bracket the problem. This seems like a good candidate for it, because attaching a debugger to Squeak (particuarly for the case in which it won't stay running) sounds like a LOT more trouble than printing "got this far" messages until I know where it quits. -log: has not been much help. Is there something similar to the change or error logs that might be appropriate to use? Bill Wilhelm K.

iphone vm 1.06b2 goes out

John M McIntosh — 2008-10-10T23:07:03

I've pushed out a 1.06b2 VM, this fixes a problem I saw where select() was returning garbage as an error code. Turns out we were calling select() with a zero max fd. Normally we don't do that, but during testing a change to aioSleep() aggravated the issue. Users should not notice a different, but should download the latest VM. -- = = = ======================================================================== John M.

I did place such a column at the position you need it in OB-Enhancements (loadable from the ob repository). The column does not appear in a standard browser, but when you search for the class OBReferenceList (method #buildOn:) you can see how it's built in. David
