[TEST] UDPSocketTest
by danil a. osipchuk 05 Nov '04

05 Nov '04

I've tried to resurrect udp examples of OldSocket, but found them too unclean, so I just composed little test suit reflecting some caveats in current udp implementation. I also added one complex test method as example - it was intented to stress sockets and I wonder if it works everywhere (it works on my FreeBSD and right now i see no reason for not to work on other platforms - but who knows). Due to it's complexity it is probably a candidate for class side example, not for the test suit

[ANN] Collaborative Squeaky Advent Calendar
by Markus Gaelli 05 Nov '04

05 Nov '04

Hi Folks, it is getting December again, and for many of us, this means to stick to some combination of pagan/christian traditions and to prepare fancy looking trees, boots, presents, and also - advent calenders. So I thought, why not join forces, and do one together? Entirely with Squeak? We would have to fill 24 doors, and one frame and thus we could all have something nice to give away on November the 30th - and also make some marketing for Squeak. The calender should be available online then so that we just can send around some links to it. I have also set up a wiki-page for this endeavor: http://kilana.unibe.ch:9090/squeakyadventcalendar/ What? The main quality criterion for the entry behind a door is: It should be surprising, fun and free! So any self made or freely available games, simulations, music, animations, or multimedia art are highly appreciated. How? • Every door is a project. Project can be done with EToys, Smalltalk changesets or any combination of them. • The projects (and any additional files) are hosted by yourself. I will only help to provide a bracket around them. Help for the bracket is very welcome, especially a fancy looking picture. • The project should run within the actual Squeak Plugin-Image provided by squeakland • Every door should contain only self-made things where the source can be put under some OSI approved / approvable license. I would suggest the current license of OpenCroquet • If you want to have music or movies, find some free ones, or make them your own ;-) And please put images, sound, movies under some creativecommons license • Please indicate the used licenses (OpenCroquet license + creative commons license somewhere in the project). • Please include the names and ages of every participant of your project somewhere in the project. • I would suggest: One person - one door - one vote about the best 24 doors. • Try to make it as international as possible. If you have to use language, try to stick to English. • If you are in, please register: http://kilana.unibe.ch:9090/registeredadventcalendarsqueakers/ Until? • Please put the links to running doors in the next 3 weeks, "deadline" is Friday, November 26th. • If we receive more than 24 doors, the submitters will make a poll for the best ones. If we receive more than 48, we just do two and so on... ;-) If I receive less, we can still hope for the next year - or we make a final rush...Or I will nag you as long as there are 25 people on the wiki... ;-) Any questions or ideas for improvement? Please also forward to any lists, which I forgot... Cheers, Markus

Squeak culture and menus
by Rob Lally 04 Nov '04

04 Nov '04

Hi, As I've been following along with the mailing list and using Squeak I've been trying to understand Squeak culture; how do people solve problems, why are particular solutions considered more Squeaky than others. One of the things that stands out as being different in Squeak from other environments is the avoidance of traditional 'drop-down top-of-the-screen' menu bars. Why has the community avoided them? What are the problems associated with them? Does anyone feel the the Squeak environment is diminished by their absence? What advantages are there to not having them? Thanks, Rob.

Naive number questions
by stéphane ducasse 04 Nov '04

04 Nov '04

hi guys one guy in the french mailing llist posted that: In Java long x = 0; long timeStart = 0; timeStart = System.currentTimeMillis(); for (int i = 0; i < 1000; i++) { for (int j = 0; j < 100000000; j++) { x = x + 1; } } timeStart = System.currentTimeMillis() - timeStart; System.out.println(new Long(timeStart).toString()); System.out.println(new Long(x).toString()); ==> 487 secondes. in Squeak: but it took a lot more (in fact I stopped it). Is there any reason why? Time millisecondsToRun: [ | x | x := 0 . 1000 timesRepeat: [ 100000000 timesRepeat: [ x := x + 1 ] ] ]. Stef

How to install packages with the PackageLoader?
by Malte Steiner 04 Nov '04

04 Nov '04

Hello, I am total puzzled, I try to load packages from SM with the SM Package Loader but it didn't offer me the promised popup for installing a package when I rightclick on the name, it gives me the general purpose popup. I am on OSX and tested it with 3.7 and 3.8 Thanks, Malte -- Malte Steiner media art + development -www.block4.com- blog 4, also available as rss feed: http://java.block4.com/blog4/ next events: 26.november workshop 3d modelling for max/msp jitter Musikhochschule Hamburg, Germany 26.november concert Elektronengehirn hoerbar Hamburg, Germany
