Re: [Pharo-users] XML support for pharo

Hi Oswall Well, you have located the correct node, which is some kind of XMLNode, so all you need is to access its content. If you browse the class and look at its ‘accessing’ protocol, you see the method XMLNode>>#contentString, which will give you, in your test case, ‘2014’ as a string. If

Solved To access the values of the nodes is as follows: yearmem: = (tree xpath: '// year') first contentString asNumber. I also edit the other methods of the XMLNode class. Thanks Oswall De: Pharo-users en nombre de PBKResearch Enviado: jueves, 12 de

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo 6 Freetype plugin stopped working after Windows update

Hello This seems exactly like a problem I reported almost exactly a year ago - 15 July 2017. Peter Uhnak reported then that he saw it regularly. The only sure remedy we found is to reboot the machine - occasionally reboot twice. I am using Pharo 6.1 on Windows 10. Since that report, I have

Hi, I've seen the FT distorted fonts when launched several images at the same time. It could be a way to reproduce it. Cheers, Hernán 2018-07-12 19:26 GMT-03:00 PBKResearch : > Hello > > This seems exactly like a problem I reported almost exactly a year ago - 15 > July 2017. Peter Uhnak

Hi Windows 10 1803 64bit: Running via DrGeo.bat, Pharo itself starts (I have SmartScreen disabled), but when opened I receive multiple errors in (gray) info messages and I do not see a way to use you app (if there should be any opened GUI or world menu items). 2018-07-12.png

Re: [Pharo-users] Request for Windows test

I also had the problem with PharoLauncher. OS X and now Windows expect to have signed applications else they do not trust it. If Dr Geo is signed with a proper certificate, it should solve the issue. > Le 11 juil. 2018 à 17:05, Ben Coman a écrit : > > On 11 July 2018 at 18:19, Hilaire wrote:

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

The primary trade-off is between Type Suggesting vs. Role Suggesting parameter names. For example, aString and aSymbol tell us only what type of object the parameter expects, while aName and aTitle tell us the *role* (or purpose) of the parameter, with the expected type hopefully obvious. You

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,

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

In the day, I learned from Smalltalk with Style: http://sdmeta.gforge.inria.fr/FreeBooks/WithStyle/SmalltalkWithStyle.pdf On PDF-page 13 naming starts. On PDF-page 29 parameter names are explained (but refers back to typed names for example). Naming ends at PDF-page 35. So quite elaborate

Sounds like what I’ve been doing is what others do too - I just wasn’t sure if my memory had served me well. It was great to be reminded about some of the subtleties though - hadn’t thought about a/an stopping inst var collisions. I actually have an original copy of that style book, I was

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

Having refreshed my memory by rereading that section of the style book - I see the source of my discomfort... I don’t find the guidelines on parameters very strong - and I think (like others) I side more with guideline 25 most of the time where it’s sensible (not just for multiple similar

Regards, I practice with the example of the book. I can not read the atomic values of the nodes. For example, with this piece of the example: Arcane Lighthouse Land 2014 To get the atomic value of the node year and assign it to the variable yearmem, I do

Hi Oswall What sort of failure did you get? It helps with this sort of thing to execute the code in a playground and inspect the result. One thing you need to know is that the result of xpath is almost always some sort of XMLCollection, even when there is only one element. I would expect

Re: [Pharo-users] XML support for pharo

Hello Peter, Thanks for your help. The value I get is: 2014 What I need is to extract the atomic value of the node, which is: 2014 To assign it to variables and create objects. I can not find how to obtain that punctual value 2014. The main
