Re: [Pharo-users] XsOs game
Thanks for comment. I'll fix all problems and change everything you mentioned, hope to succeed in it. Mark 2014-02-09 22:51 GMT+02:00 Pharo4Stef pharo4s...@free.fr: Hi mark I read a bit your code It is nice for a first project Here are some feedback. I suggest that you take into account the easy one and produce a new version and if you want to train your skills you try to see how to address the difficult ones. Stef - Add it in the class comment XsAndOsGame new openInWorld. - you have some unclassified protocols on the class side. - you may want to run smallLint (criticBorwser on your code and see the hints that it can give you). - When you create a new game do not move the window to the top corner :) easyBtn - easyButton (you do not pay per character :)) findEmptyCellPos - findEmptyCellPosition not in accessing impBtn - impossibleButton :) - Why do you need a separate class just for three colors? I would merge XsAndOsGameColors and XsAndOsGame XsAndOsGameinitialize is long May be you should extract some methods from it (methods that you can then reuse for other tasks) renderOContents | delta offset x1 y1 x2 y2 rect | delta := CellRenderer cellExtent - 1. offset := self offsetWithinGridForm. x1 := offset x + self oCorner x. x2 := offset x + delta x - self oCorner x. y1 := offset y + self oCorner y. y2 := offset y + delta y - self oCorner y. rect := Rectangle new setOrigin: x1 @ y1 corner: x2 @ y2. self targetForm getCanvas fillOval: rect color: XsAndOsGameColors gameBoardBackgroundColor borderWidth: 3 borderColor: XsAndOsGameColors OColor What do you refer to CellRenderer direcly? self class ? rendererFor: aCell VERY BAD IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS METHOD!!! aCell class = EmptyCell ifTrue: [ ^ CellRenderer ]. aCell class = XCell ifTrue: [ ^ XCellRenderer ]. aCell class = OCell ifTrue: [ ^ OCellRenderer ] indeed :) why not implementing some methods call renderClass and sending a message to the object :) mptyCellinitialize super initialize. CellRendereroffsetWithinGridForm Returns a point - left top corner of current cell ^ CellRenderer cellExtent * ((self cellLocation x - 1) @ (self cellLocation y - 1)) = self clas cellExtent CellRenderer renderBorderBottom | delta offset x1 y1 x2 y2 | delta := CellRenderer cellExtent - 1. offset := self offsetWithinGridForm. x1 := offset x. x2 := x1 + delta x. y1 := offset y + delta y. y2 := y1. self targetForm getCanvas line: x1 @ y1 to: x2 @ y2 width: 1 color: XsAndOsGameColors cellBorderColor = CellRenderer renderBorderBottom | delta offset x1 y1 x2 y2 | delta := self class cellExtent - 1. offset := self offsetWithinGridForm. x1 := offset x. x2 := x1 + delta x. y1 := offset y + delta y. y2 := y1. self targetForm getCanvas line: x1 @ y1 to: x2 @ y2 width: 1 color: XsAndOsGameColors cellBorderColor I was wondering why you need Grid (I would rename it CellGrid) and do not use a Matrix. grid sizeOfGrid - I would rename sizeOfGrid into size like that your grid can be a bit more polymorphic from its API point of view makeGameBoarMorph - typo :) Now I want wondering why you do not have an instance variable to hold it Future fun ideas for new versions: playerVsComputer self vsComputer ifTrue: [ self vsComputer: false. self stateMorph contents: 'Player 1 VS Player 2' ] ifFalse: [ self vsComputer: true. self stateMorph contents: 'Player VS Computer --- Difficulty: ' , self difficulty asString ]. self vsComputer ifTrue: [ self easyBtn enable. self normalBtn enable. self impBtn enable ] ifFalse: [ self easyBtn disable. self normalBtn disable. self impBtn disable ] This kind of code may be think that may be you need another object that represent the TwoUsers vsComputer strategy I'm not sure but clicked look quite long. May be you should create another class that can represent the logic of the game. A really interesting exercise would be to see how you can create a boardGame for 15*15 and see how it breaks some hidden rules.

[Pharo-users] Drawing a line
Hello! Task is simple - draw a line on a form(actually this line will be a border of a cell). While browsing classes I found LineSegment and LineMorph. Which of them is better to use in my case? And another question: I know how to initialize both of them, but don't know how to draw it on my form. Thank you for help. Mark

Mark myForm getCanvas line: pt1 to: pt2 width: w color: c You only need to use a LineMorph if the line is not supposed to be static, otherwise drawing it directly on the Form is just as easy. Unless what you actually want is to create something like a spreadsheet, in which case a CellMorph, with RectangleMorph (cell outline) / StringMorph (cell contents) as subcomponents would probably be a better solution. (And the spreadsheet itself a morph, with CellMorphs as subcomponents) Cheers, Henry
