Some Sensor refactorings ?
by Serge Stinckwich 04 Dec '05

04 Dec '05

Hi all, i started to look at the Sensor stuff. I have two questions : - there is two classes : EventSensor and InputSensor. The first one seems to be a replacement of the last one. Do we really need two classes or could we try to merge both ? - there is an EventSensorConstants shared pool with several constants used only by the EventSensor class. Is this class realy needed or we could move the constants as class variables in the EventSensor class ? What are your opinions about this ? -- oooo Dr. Serge Stinckwich OOOOOOOO Université de Caen>CNRS UMR 6072>GREYC>MAD OOESUGOO http://purl.org/net/SergeStinckwich oooooo Smalltalkers do: [:it | All with: Class, (And love: it)] \ / ##

Case of EventSensor keystrokes on Windows.
by Joshua Gargus 03 Dec '05

03 Dec '05

Hi, I've noticed that EventSensor always uses uppercase characters for #keyUp and #keyDown events on Windows, even if shift is not pressed when typing the key. For #keystroke, the "correct" case is used. For example, if I quickly press and release the 'd' key (no shift pressed), three events are generated: keyDown: 'D' keystroke: 'd' keyUp: 'D' On Mac OS, all three events are have a lowercase character value. Digging deeper, I looked at Interpreter>>nextEvent, which led to ioGetNextEvent() and then to ioProcessEvents() (two platform-specific C functions). And here my Windows knowledge fails me (where do the messages to DispatchMsg go next?). Does anyone know why the Windows VM would generate an uppercase keystroke event when you type a letter without shift pressed? This seems to be a bug, no? Thanks, Josh

lost connection to squeak dev
by Herbert König 03 Dec '05

03 Dec '05

Hello folks, I was on a business trip this week and when I came back I had no mail from squeak dev. Gmane shows the list is alive and well and I should have hundreds of posts. The websites to make adjustments for my account don't work anymore (404 not found), my email account is alive and well and nobody put squeak dev into the killfile. So I'm completely lost what happened. Can someone please look into this and give me some hints (to my mail address) Thanks Herbert mailto:herbertkoenig@gmx.net

Files team report
by Cees De Groot 01 Dec '05

01 Dec '05

Hi All, Here's the files team report: Nothing has happened since the last report. Zilch. Nada. Nothing. :) That was mostly the plan, and I think it's still an idea to hold off too large changes to the Files package (which is what the Files team is all about) until 3.9a gets rolling and all the big hard bits have been added to it. However, after that, the idea still is to do a thorough overhaul of everything Files, so if you have any ideas on that, please join the mailing list now. Regards, Cees
