Well, this and I am not sure I really need or want all these overrides. Either changing Kom or Passport and Passport-Squeak. Passport-Squeak is the Squeak Password compatibilty/implementation layer, is that correct? Personally I'd prefer the later but for that it would help to have it as let's say a SqueakSource package.

Hi Thanks, but now when I try to load Chronos/Passport-Squeak.st I get a syntax error at: HttpRequest KomHttpSever-protocol writeOn: writeOn: aStream "this can be used to form a client-side request and send it over network" aStream nextPutAll: self method, ' ', self url, ' ', self protocol, String crlf. self header keysAndValuesDo: [:key :Name already used in this class ->value | aStream nextPutAll: key, ': ', value, String crlf]. aStream nextPutAll: String crlf. "aStream nextPutAll: self body asString" I renamed the value block argument but then the next just popped up in #parseCookies:. That image already had a Kom Server (7.0.3).

Video Conferencing
by Michael Doherty 04 Jul '06

I'm interested in experimenting with Video Conferencing using Squeak. Has anyone done this? Are there examples? I'm thinking with Croquet maybe it could be done peer to peer. Thanks, Michael

Fw: Domain-specific notations

FYI, --- Francisco Garau 0207 777 1362 - x71362 ----- Forwarded by Francisco J Garau/JPMCHASE on 04/07/2006 16:19 ----- "Stephen Taylor" <editor(a)vector.org.uk> 04/07/2006 15:50 Please respond to editor To: "Romilly Cocking" <romilly(a)cocking.co.uk>, "Francisco. J. Garau" <francisco.j.garau(a)jpmorgan.com>, "Tony Garnock-Jones" <tonyg(a)lshift.net> cc: Subject: Domain-specific notations At XP2006 we identified others with a common interest in the use of domain-specific notations (DSNs). We see DSNs enabling domain experts and professional writers (programmers) to collaborate on executable system descriptions — software. Our experience indicates that direct collaboration on an executable description enables useful software to be written at a pace even more rapid than achieved by agile developers using C++ or Java. A key to this is the use of dynamically-typed languages, which permit concise and dynamic definitions of vocabulary. We point from our own experience to APL, J, Python, Ruby and Smalltalk. We are interested in the possibility of either a dedicated track at XP2007 for DSNs, or a conference dedicated to DSNs, or both. In this we have attracted from XP2006 the interest and encouragement of - Kent Beck, author of "Extreme Programming Explained", who would like to revive interest in Smalltalk - Barry Boehm, Professor, Center for Software Engineering, USCLA - Jack Järkvik, VP R&D, Ericsson AB - Pekka Abrahamsson, XP2006 chair - Jutta Eckstein, XP2004 chair I'm looking to convene a 1-day meeting to review what a dedicated conference or track might cover, and to agree any action to take about it. This meeting might - abut the Dyalog APL User Meeting in Elsinore (Helsingør) in October; - be held in London, to which travel is relatively cheap. Who would represent the UK Smalltalk community?

Hi I tried to install Chronos and followed the steps described at: http://chronos-st.blogspot.com/2006/03/squeak-version-of-chronos-published.… However at step 5, when filing in Chronos.st, I get a DNU in the #initialize method of TimeZonePolicyFactory class for self basicInitializeAll. Philippe

Shouldn't 7r6.5 be the same as 7r65 * 0.1
by Klaus D. Witzel 03 Jul '06

03 Jul '06

Would some good soul please explain what Number readFrom: '7r6.5' should return. It is apparently not the same as 7r65 * 0.1 and before I dig deeper (why does this happen, is it a bug or feature) I'd appreciate that someone confirms or rejects (bug | feature). Thank you. /Klaus

Entered - http://bugs.impara.de/view.php?id=3993 The following statement works: Number readFrom: '1.0e-10 .txt' readStream But when reading the same string from a file Number readFrom: (FileStream readOnlyFileNamed: 'Number1.0e-10 .txt') it fails with the attached DNU. Note that in order to reproduce, the string '1.0e-10 .txt' must be put into the file named 'Number1.0e-10 .txt'. /Klaus P.S. I stumbled over this when using Scanner for scanning all the tokens in the .changes file.
