[BUG] FileContentsBrowser doesn't filein 'all' protocol
by Tim Rowledge 10 Mar '04

10 Mar '04

Just noticed this; in a filecontents browser if you pick a class youcan filein all the stuff for that class. If you pick a protocol you can filein all the methods in that protocol. However, if you pick 'all' protocol, you don't get to filein all the methods visible.

[ENH] addHorzScrollbar
by sps2000＠mail.com 29 Feb '04

29 Feb '04

from preamble: "Change Set: scrollport Date: 28 December 2002 Author: Steven Swerling I was adding a horizontal scrollbar to the SimpleHierarchicalListMorph, but realized that many of the methods would be generic to any subclass of ScrollPane. And there were many methods. So I moved the changes up to ScrollPane. This changeset adds a horizontal scrollbar to ScrollPane, which appears as needed. I don't know if there is any demand for this, so I'm just running it up the flagpole. WARNING: The last thing you need is for a bug in ScrollPane. I don't know of any in this code, but better safe then sorry. So consider this a beta. Please tinker around with your applications to make sure everything is working ok before saving your image. Tested on a fresh 3.4 image w/ updates up to #5138. "!

[BUG] StringMorph
by Matej Kosik 24 Feb '04

24 Feb '04

If I open the context menu for any StringMorph and choose option `change emphasis' ==> Afterwards if I choose option `plain' I obtain error message "MessageNotUnderstood: plain" The same applies for all its subclasses (such as ClockMorph) I tried to figure out the problem and the enclosed change-set is a quick hack solving the problem.

[Bug] TextMorph 'text color...' interface 'cancel' button doesn't work
by Ken Causey 21 Feb '04

21 Feb '04

Tested in both 5156 and 5169 updated images. In both cases grab a TextMorph, choose 'text color...' from the halo menu, play around with the text changing whatever you like and then choose 'cancel'. The result varies from 5156 to 5169. In 5156 the text is neither unchanged nor changed to exactly what you changed in the interface. In 5169 all changes are applied and 'cancel' is equivalent to 'accept'. Ken Causey

[BUG] ClosureCompiler
by Avi Bryant 08 Feb '04

08 Feb '04

Anthony, Try compiling the following method in any class: foo 1 = 1 ifTrue: [2] I get the error 'positive if jumps only'. Now, don't ask *why* someone would write such a method (anything you do to make it useful gets rid of the error) but this is a minimal example of an actual method in Comanche that has the same problem, so I thought I'd point it out.

accelerated OpenGL on linux/nvidia (crash)
by Radek Doulik 08 Feb '04

08 Feb '04

Hi, I am experiencing crashes with Ballon3D. When I enable hardware acceleration, sooner or later squeak crashes. I found some comments on swiki (http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/squeak/2904) about using older NVidia drivers, but this semi-solution doesn't work for me as my card is not supported by old driver. The behavior explained there seems to be similar to my case. I tried various VM and image versions, including 3.4 packaged by rpm available on http://www-sor.inria.fr/~piumarta/squeak/ without success. It still crashes. Other OpenGL applications run without problem so it seems to be squeak bug/problem so far. Any idea what could be wrong and/or how to fix it?

How to start Squeak under WinXP from image on network?
by Ned Konz 05 Feb '04

05 Feb '04

I just installed the downloadable version of Squeak 3.5 on a Windows XP machine. I can start Squeak on local images (i.e. on the C: drive). that is, this works from a cmd prompt: cd /d c:\squeak squeak.exe squeak.image I tried to open an image several ways, but am not able to start up images on network shares. For instance, this doesn't work: c:\squeak\squeak.exe \\ned\homes\Squeak\3.6\squeak.image even though I can in fact see the image file in the explorer. Squeak complains that it can't find the file. Why doesn't this work? If I map a drive it works, though very very slowly: map h: \\ned\homes c:\squeak\squeak.exe h:\Squeak\3.6\squeak.image But I was trying to avoid mapped drives, since they seem to be just "tacked on" to NT (i.e. they have to go through a translation to become native resource names, etc.) and they're something else that can break. -- Ned Konz http://bike-nomad.com GPG key ID: BEEA7EFE
