Hi, The sprint was quite exciting.
Here is the twitter report: http://twitter.com/#!/search/pharosprint Here is a longer report: - Camillo looked into Keymapping. He spent several hours going through the code with the debugger. In the process he extracted more actions into keybindings (in the Keymapping-Settings). It's a commendable effort because it is quite a challenge to debug the system when playing with the keybindings :). The conclusion seems to be that Keymapping provides good functionality already, but that it needs some refactoring. In particular: --- There should be less decisions in the TextMorph. These should be delegated to the Dispatcher --- Some classes and methods would do with better names. For example, keyMapper / hasKeymap / Dispatcher. They should be all Keymapper --- There are a couple of symbols around (e.g., #complete) that are not quite clear and that should be modeled explicitly. --- Camillo, did I miss anything? - Lukas went over the WeakAnnouncements implementation to get the WeakMessageSend working. The code is in PharoTaskForces - Lukas worked on getting OB work with the changes in TextMorph from Pharo 1.2. - Adrian, Jorge and Toon worked on implementing a Debugger on top of Glamour. They got a first version working that is able to do basic actions: step, restart, step into. The challenge was to get to understand the model, and to figure out that <primitive: 19> is used for marking that a method should not be debugged. In any case, working with Glamour seemed to work quite smoothly. The code is available in the Glamorous Toolkit. Adrian, did I get it right? :) - Mircea built a new widget for searching multiple categories of items in the same time, similar to spotlight where you enter one string and you get multiple hits from multiple categories. The implementation was spawned from the OBCompletionDialog / OBCompletionRequest and currently it simply provides multiple lists one below the other. The idea is to use this kind of widget to search simultaneously for classes / methods / packages. The code is available in Glamour (Glamour-Morphic-Renderer). The widget can definitely be improved visually, but Mircea already did a nice job. - I showed the current prototypes available in the Glamorous Toolkit (built with Glamour). It looks like we got a consensus that we should focus on rethinking the IDEs, and that Glamour can be a promising infrastructure. For this to work, we distinguished between the work needed at the widget level (like the work of Mircea and Camillo), and the work needed at the level of playing with new metaphors for browsing. The Glamorous Toolkit already provides a number of examples for: ObjectFinder, Chaser, Playground (ex-Workspace), MessageTallyBrowser, ProfStef, and some Coders. If you want to play with the early versions of these tools, you can get them here (just keep in mind that they are intended as exercises at the moment): Gofer new squeaksource: 'glamoroust'; package: 'ConfigurationOfGlamoroust'; load. (Smalltalk at: #ConfigurationOfGlamoroust) perform: #loadDefault.
