Hi all,

I'm working with artifacts, but I got an error. I have a pdf's generator
which works very well, but recently I discovered that it has problems with
special characters, specifically this: "ć" since if some text has this
symbol the pdf is generated in white, I tried some encodings to the text
between them UTF8, Latin1, Latin2 and with these encodings the pdf manages
to generate well; however the character does not look like it should look
(It can be appear like this Ä or æ). Does anyone know how to solve this
problem?

Thanks very much,
Evelyn

It's really nice to have you hear. I remember some of our Twitter
conversations about reproducible research and the advantages that Pharo
could bring in that front and is good to know that they will continue
here with the stuff you're working on.

I restarted with Pharo in 2014, after a short revealing experience with

Yes, Pharo is strange and awesome and the same time. Be around, you'll

An interesting feature, though it seems a bit too low-level for my

That sent me off research meta-links:

  https://pharoweekly.wordpress.com/2018/03/27/understanding-metalinks/

Interesting stuff as well, but the same comment applies: this looks too
low-level for what I consider boring code implementing routine
techniques.

I did not look into performance questions at all for now. What scares me
most is the overhead in code size, in particular in my test suite.

That looks like an interesting compromise, and one that I have seen used
elsewhere.

A nice suggestion as well - I haven't looked at traits yet in any
detail.

My first reaction was that this looks like overkill for my problem. But
then, considering that I will eventually need a parser anyway, why not
start that way and use it in my own test cases? A path worth exploring.

Thanks again to everyone - your comments will keep me busy for a while!

Hi Konrad,

in your case I would write a parser for your specific concrete syntax with
PetitParser
and then generate an instance of the abstract syntax you have defined.

Did you already try to measure the impaired overhead of a wrapper  
solution? It might very well be negligible in an otherwise purely symbolic  
computation.


A hybrid solution might be - instead of wrapping each value - to add a  
single method to the value classes that wraps a value on the fly if  
needed, e.g.


Integer>>asExpression
  ^ExpressionWrapper wrap: self.

If the expression protocol is invoked only rarely on the pure values, this  
solution reduces the overhead while keeping the value classes clean of  
foreign methods.


Another option might be to build a trait that adds the behavior to the  
value classes.

 I was going to chip in that every class inherits what compiler it uses and so 
you can easily override that to do something special (like wrapping classes).

However, is this possibly an area where the meta-links kicks in so you don’t 
have to do this and get a more generic solution? (I haven’t played with this, 
but there are a few threads where people are using it, and it’s progressed 
quite a lot in Pharo 7).

I understand your desire to utilize the existing Smalltalk mechanisms. But,
I think the most important thing is modelling consistency.

What are the behaviours you expect from Expression, SumExpression, and
ProductExpression? Do they know their parent expression? Their children?
Other things? What was their actual representation (source code)?
16rDEADBEEF may be more meaningful than 3735928559, for example. Likewise,
2r1001110110101  versus 2063285. Being able to reason fully about
what was parsed will almost always be important.

I think that, in general, you will benefit from fully and consistently
modelling the parse tree. The actual evaluation is probably the smallest
part of the problem.

e.g. if every node implements #evaluate, it is easy to implement their
operations. SumExpression would answer "self leftNode evaluate + self
rightNode evaluate". IntegerExpression would implement is as "^self value"
or something similar.

[Konrad Hinsen]

Hi everyone,

I am confronted with an implementation choice that I expect to be not so
rare, and I wonder what "the Pharo way" is for dealing with it. I will
use a toy example for illustration, my real case is more complex but not
fundamentally different.

Suppose I want to represent arithmetic expressions that support various
operations (evaluation, simplification, compilation to whatever
language, ...). In the textbook discussion, I'd have a class hierarchy
such as

Expression (abstract)
   IntegerExpression
   VariableNameExpression
   SumExpression
   ProductExpression
   ...

What I really want is not some IntegerExpression, but plain Pharo
integers, and for variable names I want to use plain Pharo symbols.

>From my current understanding of Pharo, my options are

 1. Use wrapper objects for integers and symbols, i.e. have a class
IntegerExpression that stores an integer in an instance variable.

 2. Add the methods of my abstract Expression class to all the classes
representing integers and symbols.

 3. Implement my own dispatch that does not rely on method lookup.

None of these really looks attractive. 1) adds a lot of overhead, both
in the code ("IntegerExpression withValue: 5" rather than just "5") and
at runtime. 3) also adds a lot of overhead because I have to implement
my own dispatch. 2) would probably be the least effort, but looks like a
kludge.

For comparison, in the Lisp world (CLOS, Racket, ...) that I know much
better, I would use generic functions and provide implementations for
integers and symbols as well as for my own Expression types.

So... how would you approach this problem?

Thanks in advance,
  Konrad.

For now, the bleeding edge. I will publish a stable as soon as it gets tested 
enough.

I tried to reproduce the problem with the same configuration without success. 
It works well.
I guess you already downloaded the required VM with a previous version of the 
launcher (using Pharo unzipping). If you delete this VM and use the launcher to 
run the image, it should download the VM and uses your system unzip command to 
extract it.

Not solved. 
Indeed, it is a problem of the Zip library that does not unzip properly (no 
preservation of permissions, does not handle symlinks).

It is a workaround but maybe I will add a strategy to use the unzip exe if I 
can find it on the system. That should solve most problems.
WDYT?

What do you mean?
For Pharo images < 70, sources file for the current version and the previous 
version are downloaded with the VM.

For Pharo 7 images, no sources file are dowloaded since they come with the 
image.

I think default theme for the Launcher should be the same as the Pharo theme.
Would a (Launcher) preference help?

yes, Pharo 6 regression.

Because it is not so easy to determine what Pharo7 image version to

​Hi Christophe,

thank you for your support on PharoLauncher !
​I dl the last version for Mac OS X: Pharo_0.2.13.dmg
This is really nice to be able to download the VM depending on the VM.

I have only two issues:
- some icons do no show up when PharoLauncher is launch. They only appear
when on mouse hover.
- for some of my images, I have an error: Instances of UndefinedObject are
not indexable.

Thank you.

Christophe did a pass because he faced the same problem and he

Now he left on vacation (and was stopped because of a huge jenkins

Usually it will download the right vm for your image so you don't have to

Welcome

I hope that you will have fun.

you have ways:

- use /extend/write a VM pluggin (check the old one)

- use FFI there is a chapter in PharoInProgress on github on how to 
use the new FFI with Pharo 50.


- ask for help.

There is a camera plugin in the source tree of the VM.

pharo-vm/platforms/win32/plugins/CameraPlugin

You can copy the dll in the Pharo directory and load the dll with:

NativeBoost forCurrentPlatform loadModule: 'CameraPlugin.dll'

Anyone having the FFI calls?

Maybe Phratch has it built in.

I guess you will need to interface to some library, so for Pharo 5
have a play with its new UFFI interface.
A quick google around shows opencv to be a common base for FFI...

but I also found this...

Note that NativeBoost was an FFI implementation for Pharo 4.

Hi !

I'm new on pharo and I realy like its vision. To learn more about the
system I decide to write a package that handle Webcam. The package should
be able to :

- start webcam
- take photo
- record a video.

The wonderfull thing is that I don't know where to start, Every advice is
welcome.

Thanks!

I tried to execute

curl get.pharo.org/alpha+vm | bash


I executed it 8 times and it terminated after downloading the image. I
finally tried


curl get.pharo.org/alpha+vmLatest | bash

and it worked the first time. Is there a problem with the alpha+vm script?
Trying to test OSSubprocess.

When I try to download the latest stable Pharo 5, I get this:

curl get.pharo.org/50+vm | bash

  % Total% Received % Xferd  Average Speed   TimeTime Time
Current

 Dload  Upload   Total   SpentLeft
Speed

100  2901  100  29010 0   4931  0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:--
4925

Downloading the latest 50 Image:

http://files.pharo.org/get-files/50/pharo.zip


It never finishes, and if I try to unzip the file artifacts I get:

Archive:  image.zip

  End-of-central-directory signature not found.  Either this file is not

  a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive.  In the

  latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on

  the last disk(s) of this archive.

unzip:  cannot find zipfile directory in one of image.zip or

image.zip.zip, and cannot find image.zip.ZIP, period.


What am I doing wrong? I tried the download with curl and wget. I'm on Mac
OSX 10.10.5 (Yosemite).

It worked this time. It takes about 5 minutes from Nevada, USA. Thanks.

Yeah, I'm never sure whether it's the remote site or my ISP. Can't wait until 
my contract is up. They won't let me use bit torrent and they arbitrarily don't 
allow certain downloads through. I end up at the library in order to download 
some things like unix distros.

I think its the server,  I have internet connections issues too, my adsl is
down because of a faulty cable that the adsl provide not my ISP refused so
far to replace, I use my mobile internet connection that is rock solid
(ironic that mobile phone offers better internet connection than adsl) so I
am pretty sure it was the pharo server.
