[Pharo-project] Can I use Projects in Pharo?
Hi... my first post here, so hello everyone! I started to play with Pharo for a few days now and I am really impressed. The only thing I really miss from Squeak is the possibility to create projects (Open... - morphic project - in Squeak)? Is this somehow possible in Pharo?

Hi Stef... Thank you for the welcome and quick answer! > you cannot anymore. We have not finished to curve it out and you trust us > that if we remove it this is for good reasons. Sure I understand that cleanup is important to get a stable and maintainable platform. When I understand correctly this is one of the main goals of Pharo :-). However, regardless of implementation, the functionality delivered by projects is great. Are you planning something new in place of the old projects? (For example my current main tool for work is Intellij IDEA (Java) and one of it's great features is the possibility to define multiple tasks per project, each with an own set of open files, breakpoints etc. Also you can associate such a task with a version control change-set So you can switch contexts with a click and immediately continue working on a task where you left it).

Yep, thank you Sean - this more or less nails it. Squeak projects are what comes closest to what i need to be able to quickly change context. It is perfectly ok to have them just in the image without any possibility for load/save. As for the IDEA comparison I raised, there is a big difference in my work style when switching tasks in IDEA/Java and Smalltalk. My impression is that for one this is because in Smalltalk you "live" inside your objects (image) while in Java you mostly have the edit-compile cycle. Also, traditional Smalltalk Browsers show you just one small piece of code (method) at a time while in file oriented environments you think in Files and scroll to get to a method. So what I do in Smalltalk is placing a couple of Browsers, workspaces and often also instances of the developed objects (!). Switching context means to destroy all this setup, and manually build another one. Switching bask, I have to redo all this for my former setup. (I could imagine that all this is a bit less of an issue in web development but I have too little Smalltalk experience here). > Projects as described might be similar to Dolphin's IdeaSpace. For whatever > reason, I never liked them very much, so I am not the best person to comment. I share with Bill that I never use IdeaSpaces in Dolphin. However, IdeaSpaces are very different from Squeak projects as they just allow you to group browsers and workspaces with tabs which does (IMHO) not match Smalltalk work style for above reasons and I would not need a similar tool in Pharo. To summarize, I would be perfectly happy with a streamlined projects implementation that just gives you different view to dive into without any need to save them outside the present image.

Re: [Pharo-project] Multiple Worlds (was Re: Can I use Projects in Pharo?)
Ok, found time to hack up a /very preliminary/ test class that allows me to switch between PasteUpMorphs by name. It would be nice if someone could tell me if what I did is reasonable (I did not use Squeak/Pharo for looong time). It might e.g. well be that I use methods intended for Project that will go away soon Just file in JRWorldManager and evaluate in a workspace JRWorldManager instance createOrSwitchToWorldNamed: 'JustAnotherWorld'. you should be carried to a new empty world. To switch back, use JRWorldManager instance createOrSwitchToWorldNamed: 'Pharo'. (I hope that attachments work in this list).

[Pharo-project] Trait missing method isMetacelloConfig in Pharo 1.1
Hi... just noticed that I get a walkback after creating a Trait and then opening the Context-Menu on the browser's classes list pane. It complains MessageNotUnderstood: Trait>>isMetacelloConfig Adding the missing method to Trait solves the issue. Probably it is just missing from {ob-metacello} package?

Re: [Pharo-project] [Metacello] Re: Trait missing method isMetacelloConfig in Pharo 1.1
Hi Dale... being really new to all this, I might state the obvious, but my impression currently is that The purpose of isMetacelloConfig was to produce a class-side default method returning false if ob-metacello package is installed and override it when necessary in subclasses (class side) The (false in Pharo) assumption was that Class is the proper base to cover all cases. Pharo has Traits which are not Classes, and on encountering these the assumption failed. Putting isMetacelloConfig default method also to Trait sounds to me better than putting it to Object, as the intention was to have it just on the class/trait side of things. I do not know if it actually works, but maybe isMetacelloConfig default method should be defined in a Trait itself and used by Class and Trait?
