Thank you. I see that this opens Nautilus. Is Calypso the Pharo8 equivalent? How do I find the class of the Calypso browser? Do I "halo click" a Calypso browser, I assume? And then click the wrench thing? What area of the browser do I click on to get the name of the object it is from? On Sun, F

Yes, thanks for good feedback. I will try the pooled way, I think - not primarily because of speed, but due to that our library is built around prepared connections. Petter On Sun, Feb 9, 2020 at 6:01 PM Sven Van Caekenberghe wrote: > Hi Petter, > > > On 9 Feb 2020, at 17:27, Petter Egesund >

Hello, I am porting a package into Pharo 8. One of the objects is referring to object [Browser], but that does not seem to present in Pharo8 and deprecated in Pharo5. What is the modern replacement for [Browser]? Also, is there a "smaltalk" way to find out recommended replacements for deprecated

Hi Petter, [ CC-ing the Pharo Users list ] P3Client is not built/designed to be used by multiple processes concurrently. Each database connection is represented by an instance of P3Client and holds some state both at the client as well as at the server side. Typically, in a multi user server a
