Re: [Pharo-users] Naming parameters - conventions?

This payer/payee example is exactly what I was thinking about, and I’ve tended to do as Dennis suggests and use a type suffix on the name - and wondered if that was what most people do. I’ll certainly check what Andreas says on the topic. Tim Sent from my iPhone On 12 Jul 2018, at 06:31, Den

Re: [Pharo-users] Naming parameters - conventions?

I generally go for intention revealing (e.g. fullName) because the class of the parameter can change arbitrarily. e.g. your aString might become a Name object that can answer something useful when you know just the first or family name. But I also mostly write code for my own consumption. If t

[Pharo-users] Naming parameters - conventions?

Hi everyone, something I’ve meant to ask over the years, as I’ve seen lots of variation and was taught something else in the day... What is the suggested way of naming parameters? I was taught {“a”/“an”}DataType, so it would be: #name: aString Which works ok (although falls apart if you refact

Re: [Pharo-users] Thoughts on mini Smalltalk exercises

Hi guys, they’re all great ideas - but I guess I should have added the caveat - “that you can easily test”. It sounds like maybe using class methods puts it closer to the simpler camp you are suggesting - and I would like to push the idea of using the debugger to create the missing method (a un

Hi Guillermo, Thanks for the explanation. I guess that I really don't have much idea how this baseline stuff is supposed to work, so when it fails, I don't know where to look. My initial question was about why iceberg (or Metacello?) was looking in the wrong directory, but that seems to have

Windows finds DrGeo.exe suspicious. I guess the problem will disappear when enough users have launched it. But it's usable anyway, you just have to click through the annoying dialog. -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html

Hi Julián, Although we have TLS/SSL support (in the form of Zodiac, Zinc is just a user offering HTTP(S) on top), it is currently all dependent on a plugin that is different on all platforms and mostly lacks support for certificates. It is what it is. I know that some developers are working on
