Changes to Trunk (http://source.squeak.org/trunk.html) in the last 24 hours: http://lists.squeakfoundation.org/pipermail/packages/2010-December/003965.h… Name: Morphic-cmm.478 Ancestors: Morphic-laza.477 - Removed unused PasteUpMorph>>'autoLineLayout' and 'resizeToFit' since these functions are already inherited from Morph anyway. - Fixed ability to adjust the font of all contents of a TextMorph via its "change font" halo, but there is still a bug with adjusting the font of just the selection which I don't know how to fix. =============================================

quick handling of graphics files
by Ross Boylan 01 Dec '10

01 Dec '10

I have PNG files with document scans, and would like to view them as part of an application. I will also need to scale and/or pan them. One file took over a minute to open when I selected "open graphic in window" from the file browser. (ImageReadWriter formFromFileNamed: 'myfile.png') asMorph openInHand had about the same speed. I'm looking for advice on how to speed that up, or the information that is not possible. I found a similar question on the newbie list, but no one answered it. I'm guessing that it is the initial read and translation of the file that's taking the time, since resizing the image is much faster than loading it. This is really too slow to be practical, and much slower than imagemagick's display command, which opens in under 5 seconds. The image is a 400dpi black and white scan of an 8.5x11" page; the file is 144k bytes. BTW is there any particular reason the file browser opens a SketchMorph while asMorph on the ImageReadWrite result produces an ImageMorph? The former is closer to what I want since it is resizeable and not transluscent; on the other hand, the comment in SketchMorph says they are produced by the PaintBox, which is not true in this case. Squeak 3.10.2 on Linux with 32 bit color in X. I think squeak is using 32 bit color as well, but couldn't find the setting on a quick look (not in preferences browser).

Protocol Buffers anyone?
by Göran Krampe 01 Dec '10

01 Dec '10

Hi! I want to build an API for Riak (awesome NoSQL db) and there is a choice of using HTTP or Protocol Buffers. Evidently Protocol Buffers offer a quite higher degree of performance so I am leaning towards that. Now, has anyone dabbled with implementing Protocol Buffers for Squeak/Pharo/Smalltalk? Couldn't find anything. regards, Göran

RE: [Pharo-project] OSProcess update (was: [OSProcess] Proposal for Pharo 1.2 compatibility)
by Schwab,Wilhelm K 01 Dec '10

01 Dec '10

Dave, Does that mean that PipeableOSProcess can load w/o MVC support? That would be great! You've just reminded me that there is a Windows plugin - for a long time, I thought it was necessary to use ProcessWrapper there. I don't have much need for piping on Windows, but one never knows when it might surface again. Is there a binary for the plugin? I find the Linux VM wanting in diagnostic feedback, so I end up hacking and building it from source, but the Windows VM seems to just work as-is; I have not needed to build it for a long time. In fairness, I don't ask much of Windows these days, but I do need to target it. Bill ________________________________________ From: pharo-project-bounces(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr [pharo-project-bounces(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr] On Behalf Of David T. Lewis [lewis(a)mail.msen.com] Sent: Tuesday, November 30, 2010 9:44 PM To: Pharo-project(a)lists.gforge.inria.fr Subject: [Pharo-project] OSProcess update (was: [OSProcess] Proposal for Pharo 1.2 compatibility) To follow up on this, I have now updated both OSProcess and CommandShell to work on Pharo 1.2. I have not yet had a chance to look at the Metacello configurations, but loading the latest versions of OSProcess and CommandShell, and CommandShellPharo from SqueakSource will give the correct configurations. For CommandShell, ignore the MVC warnings on load, or you can load the individual sub-packages from SqueakSource and leave out CommandShell-MVC. The separate CommandShellPharo package in SqS/CommandShell provides world menu registration for opening a command shell morph on Pharo (open a new command shell morph with world -> Tools -> Command shell). This is in its own package because of the use of pragmas for menu registration, which cannot be loaded into some other Squeak images (e.g. Squeak 3.8 and earlier). I note that on Pharo: TextStyle named: 'DefaultFixedTextStyle' ==> a TextStyle Accuny12(FontSet) Which seems to be a proportional font rather than fixed, so the font in a CommandShell window is not as nice as it should be. OSProcess and CommandShell test suites are green on Squeak/Unix VM, but a bit flakey when I run them on Pharo. Issues are timing related, and I cannot say if they are issues in Pharo, CommandShell, or maybe just the way I wrote the tests. But for general use, everything seems to be working now. When running on Cog, you should expect #forkSqueak to fail, but it will no longer crash the VM as in earlier OSProcess versions. However, #forkSqueak is used extensively in the unit tests for various multiprocessing test setups, which means that the test suites will not run properly. That said, most of the rest of OSProcess and CommandShell should work on Cog. Most things should work on a Mac VM, although I cannot personally verify. Windows support is incomplete and the plugin is not widely available. Dave

Chris Muller uploaded a new version of Morphic to project The Trunk: http://source.squeak.org/trunk/Morphic-cmm.478.mcz ==================== Summary ==================== Name: Morphic-cmm.478 Author: cmm Time: 1 December 2010, 10:54:20.028 am UUID: a875be1e-74ad-49a4-b2aa-8a70956c0b65 Ancestors: Morphic-laza.477 - Removed unused PasteUpMorph>>'autoLineLayout' and 'resizeToFit' since these functions are already inherited from Morph anyway. - Fixed ability to adjust the font of all contents of a TextMorph via its "change font" halo, but there is still a bug with adjusting the font of just the selection which I don't know how to fix. =============== Diff against Morphic-laza.477 =============== Item was changed: BorderedMorph subclass: #PasteUpMorph + instanceVariableNames: 'presenter model cursor padding backgroundMorph turtleTrailsForm turtlePen lastTurtlePositions isPartsBin indicateCursor wantsMouseOverHalos worldState griddingOn' - instanceVariableNames: 'presenter model cursor padding backgroundMorph turtleTrailsForm turtlePen lastTurtlePositions isPartsBin autoLineLayout indicateCursor resizeToFit wantsMouseOverHalos worldState griddingOn' classVariableNames: 'DisableDeferredUpdates MinCycleLapse StillAlive WindowEventHandler' poolDictionaries: '' category: 'Morphic-Worlds'! !PasteUpMorph commentStamp: '<historical>' prior: 0! A morph whose submorphs comprise a paste-up of rectangular subparts which "show through". Anything called a 'Playfield' is a PasteUpMorph.

A World, the entire Smalltalk screen, is a PasteUpMorph. A World responds true to isWorld. Morph subclasses that have specialized menus (BookMorph) build them in the message addBookMenuItemsTo:hand:.

A new version of Tools was added to project The Inbox: http://source.squeak.org/inbox/Tools-fbs.283.mcz ==================== Summary ==================== Name: Tools-fbs.283 Author: fbs Time: 1 December 2010, 3:09:44.682 pm UUID: 810789fa-9417-a340-a578-0df71274f43d Ancestors: Tools-ul.282 When a method changes out from under your feet in the Debugger (e.g., you remove an instvar triggering a recompile of a method through which you've stepped), the Debugger blanks out contents. In the UI, this manifests as a blank code pane. This change resets the contents ivar by setting it to the new, recompiled, CompiledMethod as a side effect of calling self selectedMessage. =============== Diff against Tools-ul.282 =============== Item was changed: ----- Method: Debugger>>contents (in category 'accessing') ----- contents "Depending on the current selection, different information is retrieved. Answer a string description of that information. This information is the method in the currently selected context." + contents == nil ifTrue: [^ self selectedMessage]. - contents == nil ifTrue: [^ String new]. ^ contents copy!

Using #= for integer comparison instead of #==
by Levente Uzonyi 01 Dec '10

01 Dec '10

Hi, I'm mostly ready with this cleanup, only a few methods left in the image that use #== for integer comparison. Some of them must use #==, others may be changed, but I wasn't sure if the code will work if it's changed or not. If you'd like to check these methods, then evaluate the following in a workspace: | hasMatch visitor | hasMatch := false. visitor := ParseNodeEnumerator ofBlock: [ :node | (node isMessageNode and: [ ((#(== ~~) identityIncludes: node selector key) and: [ node receiver isConstantNumber or: [ node arguments first isConstantNumber ] ]) ]) ifTrue: [ hasMatch := true ] ] select: [ :node | hasMatch not ]. SystemNavigation default browseAllSelect: [ :method | hasMatch := false. method decompile accept: visitor. hasMatch ] Cheers, Levente
