[ENH][GOODIE] CommandShell V3.0.1 (updated for Squeak 3.6 and SM)
by David T. Lewis 30 Sep '03

30 Sep '03

CommandShell 3.0.1 is an incremental patch to be applied to CommandShell 3.0. It removes undeclared references to OSProcess classes so that CommandShell loads cleanly from Squeak Map into Squeak 3.6. The current version of CommandShell may also be loaded directly from Squeak Map. Dave

[FIX] TextStreamFix ([er] questions)
by danielv＠netvision.net.il 30 Sep '03

30 Sep '03

Brent, I think the growTo: addition is good. In using replaceFrom: position+1 to: position + n with: aCollection startingAt: 1, I think you're fixing the wrong thing - you're working around the real culprit, which is that Text>>replaceFrom:to:with: does copying, which is quite contrary to other implementations of the same selector. Also, I don't understand the reasoning in removing the test Tim left there - (aCollection isMemberOf: String) not ifTrue: [^ super nextPutAll: aCollection].

SqueakMap & monticello feature requests
by Stephen Pair 22 Sep '03

22 Sep '03

First, an easy one...I'd like the ability to browse the code of certain packages on SqueakMap (could just do the easy ones like change sets and *.st packages first)...it would be a little more difficult for SARs, but shouldn't be impossible. Now for a more elaborate request involving SqueakMap and Monticello...what I would like in Monticello is the ability to assign a version string to a package (but still have the auto-generated version numbers). Then I'd like the ability to directly export a package version to another repository. And, I possibly might want to be able to organize repositories in a hierachical fashion and have a "promote" capability that would simply export a package version to the "parent repository" in the hierarchy. The version string would enable me to correlate versions in multiple repositories (since the internal version number would not match up). Package versions would have to have a version string before they are allowed to be exported. Once a package has been exported to another repository, its version string would become immutable (in both repositories). Then, I'd like SqueakMap to be able to register a package that resides in a Monticello repository and have SqueakMap (server or client, whichever works best) be able to communicate with the repository to pull version information, etc for the package. This of course then implies that there needs to be some measure of security in Monticello that would allow read-only access but restrict update access. Why do I want these things? So that I can have a local repository on my laptop for my packages, have a shared private repository for projects that I'm working on with other people, and have a public respository for published projects accessible through SqueakMap. As I work, I'll create versions in my local repository. I'll occassionally publish versions to the shared repository, and when ready, I'll finally push versions out to the public repository. Perhaps a simply hierarchy of repositories would not be sufficient...instead, I might want to simply be able to "link" repositories (and name the repositories) and be able to "push" packages between them. The linking would serve no other purpose than to make it simple to "right click a package version, and 'push' it to one of a list of linked repositories". - Stephen

Morphic Wrappers again
by Frits Swinkels 18 Sep '03

18 Sep '03

Curious that they were in the list just now. I was playing with them last night with some problems;) Question: what was the last version of Squeak the package on SM was known to work with? My problems. I use MathMorphs.pdf from the Squeak book as my tutorial. Assigning a name as in "punto := self" did nothing. I build a silly little class called Person with one instance variable 'name'. I expected "Person new name: 'Frits' ; self" to give me a wrapper on an instance of a Person. Instead I got a Morph Explorer. I do get the correct result on a point. I am exploring the statement that MorphWrappers are Squeak's answer to Naked Objects.

[ENH] QuickStartMenu
by goran.krampe＠bluefish.se 15 Sep '03

15 Sep '03

Second try. Fixed silly bug. from preamble: "Change Set: QuickStartMenu Date: 30 July 2003 Author: Göran Krampe Adds a nice little menu choice in the World menu showing all installed packages sorted by name with the version info within parentheses just like in SMLoader. For each entry it will offer a Quickstart choice if there somewhere in the SM package description says: [quickstart: MyFunkyClass class>>aSelectorDoingSomethingNice] Note that only class side methods work (don't forget the 'class' word above."!

[ENH]TransformMorph caching
by Eddie Cottongim 29 Aug '03

29 Aug '03

We've talked quite a bit about working on speeding scrolling in lists and scrollpanes. One thing that Andreas, myself and others have found is that by caching TransformMorph's localSubmorphBounds, you can get a fairly nice improvement in scrolling speed for lists and scrollpanes. This seems to be a safe and simple change. I hope that this enhancement is simple enough that it can be accepted and provide some immediate benefit to users on PDAs and slower machines. On larger lists, you should see 20-50% improvement in scrolling. Hopefully later we'll get something really smooth, but this helps for now. Andreas sent essentially the same code to the list a while back. If you'd rather use his, thats fine with me, just let one of us know and it can be reposted as an [ENH]. Eddie >From the preamble: "Cache the value of localSubmorphBounds, as suggested by Andreas, myself and others. Adds the iVar localBounds to do this. Value is computed lazily by the localSubmorphBounds method and cached. It is invalidated when layoutChanged it received. Class comment is changed to reflect this addition. Should yield 20-50% speedup in scrolling speed depending on the number of submorphs of the TransformMorph."
