[Pharo-users] Smalltalk Argument

2017-10-19 Thread Paulo R. Dellani
Dear all, after using Smalltalk for several years I developed a passion for the language (how not to?), and Pharo is just so great to develop with. So thank you guys for keeping this wonderful project running. Unfortunately, it is not easy to always point out why Smalltalk should be employed as

Dear all, I would like to give ZeroMQ a try in Smalltalk, but am unable to load it on a new image successfully. In Pharo 5, I loaded the package ConfigurationOfZeroMQ from therepository in smalltalkhub and evaluated the following to load the code:

Dear uFFI experts, I am dealing with the port of the ZeroMQ code to Pharo 6 and found something unexpected to me, at least: Zmq4Api>>apiZmqMsgRecv: message socket: socket withFlags: flags     ^ self ffiCall: #(long zmq_msg_recv (ZmqApiMessage*

Hi Pablo, correcting the type declaration in the ffiCall solved the problem, thanks! Cheers, Paulo On 10/30/2017 05:24 PM, teso...@gmail.com wrote: > Hi,  >  the problem is that the Zq function has the following signature: > > int zmq_msg_recv (zmq_msg_t *msg, void *socket, int flags); > > And

I like your depiction of the situation and arguments, Andrew. The inherent volatility of the software industry due to its tendency to self disruption, as you pointed out, is fertile ground to all kinds of crap, but we as developers should keep our eyes wide open and look for the pearls and gems

a new Pharo 6 image. The code need more changes to work, however. Lets see how long it takes to get a few ZeroMQ examples running. I will publish my "fork". Cheers, Paulo On 10/29/2017 03:09 PM, Paulo R. Dellani wrote: > Dear all, > > I would like to give ZeroMQ a try in

I think you have nailed it, Joachim! The development environment is per se very productive and easy to use and learn but at the moment you need something that isn't present in your code library, things can get very hard. Well, that's not really new and not only a problem that concerns Smalltalk,

This all sounds very interesting. What is the idea? Wrap libkrb5 through UFFI or implement it in Smalltalk? On 10/26/2017 04:38 PM, henry wrote: > A Kerberos effort will have to be a group effort. Sideways to my main > focus and your all’s main focii. > > > - HH > > > On Thu, Oct 26, 2017 at
