Media materials for Moose
by Simon Denier 11 Mar '09

11 Mar '09

Hi list I am looking for any media material (picture, screenshots of tools, slideshow, videos, podcasts) related to Moose. Some could be put on the website for the community, and I think they should be put in a file repository to be shared under a CC licence. Right now I am working on a poster for Moose and that's why I need such materials. -- Simon

Glamour browser
by Alexandre Bergel 26 Feb '09

With such a name, I couldn't resist to try. I downloaded Glamour and all the test pass (except one expected failure). What next? How I can open one? I skimmed the test, but I do not know where to start.

Re: [Pharo-project] Which Mondrian ?

> I've loaded the mondrian form squeaksource and I'm trying it. I find > it quite different for the one used in OB. Yes, but very close to the VW version. We have a number of scripts and visualization made in VW that we would like to reuse. Moreover, in my opinion, the new version is simpler to use (and probably faster to render). The incantation to install the latest version of Mondrian in Pharo: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ScriptLoader new installer ss project: 'Mondrian'; install: 'MondrianLoader'. ScriptLoader perform: #loadMondrian -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= > I'll continue to try it as I'm reading Micheal Master thesis.

Yes, you can compose them using MOFormsBuilder. There are numerous example in MOReadme, MONewFormsBuilderTest, and MOFormsBuilderTest (but some of them go red). An example that you can run with: MOReadme new flagExample -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | builder view | builder := MOFormsBuilder new. "Assuming you want a grid made up of 3 columns and 2 rows" builder column; fill; column; fill; center; column; fill. builder row; fill; row; fill; row; fill; "For the German flag" row; center; "The EU text" row; pref. "For the French flag" "We draw a German flag" builder x: 1 y: 1 w: 3 add: (MORectangleShape new width: 30; height: 7; fillColor: Color black). builder x: 1 y: 2 w: 3 add: (MORectangleShape new width: 30; height: 7; fillColor: Color red). builder x: 1 y: 3 w: 3 add: (MORectangleShape new width: 30; height: 7; fillColor: Color yellow). builder x: 1 y: 4 w: 3 add: (MOLabelShape new text: [:aNumber |'EU ', aNumber printString]). "We draw a French flag" builder x: 1 y: 5 add: (MORectangleShape new width: 10; height: 20; fillColor: Color blue). builder x: 2 y: 5 add: (MORectangleShape new width: 10; height: 20; fillColor: Color white). builder x: 3 y: 5 add: (MORectangleShape new width: 10; height: 20; fillColor: Color red). view := MOViewRenderer new. view popupText: [:aNumber | 'my value is ', aNumber printString ]. view draggable. "Let's make nodes draggable, yeah!" view nodeShape: (builder shape). view nodes: (1 to: 27). view edges: (1 to: 27) from: #yourself to: [:each | each * each]. view layout: (MOCircleLayout new). view open -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= > I also wonder if we could imagine a SVGRenderer to use in conjunction > with seaside :) ? What do you think ? Yeah, that would be nice! > ps: David, concerning the graph button bar in OB, I'll suggest showing > it only in the comment view. It depends... I seldom press the comment button, except if there is a comment in it, which is rare.

FMMultivalueLink
by Laval Jannik 25 Feb '09

25 Feb '09

Hi all, In FAMIXScopingEntity, the method initialize is: --- initialize super initialize. childNamespaces := FMMultivalueLink on: self opposite: #parentNamespace:. parentNamespace := nil. globalVariables := FMMultivalueLink on: self opposite: #parentNamespace:. --- The class FMMultivalueLink does not exist. Does anyone know what it is and how to fix it? Thanks Jannik

MSE Incompability between Fame and iPlasma?
by Simon Denier 24 Feb '09

24 Feb '09

Hi everybody I'm trying to use iPlasma to parse Java source files, export the model as MSE, then import them in SqMoose using Fame. I ran into a couple of problems when doing this, specificall the MSE format built with iPlasma is not well parsed by Fame. Here is a sample generated by iPlasma: Beginning of MSE file: (Moose.Model (entity A) According to the MSE spec, the file cant begin directly with a name like that, should be ((Moose.Model (entity (....)) Besides, I dont see the point of this header, it works fine without it. (FAMIX.Namespace (id: 6) (name 'java::lang') ) B) Fame infers accessor 'smalltalk-style', ie it will call #name: to set the name of the Namespace entity in the example above. It works in Famix3 but not in Famix2, where the setter is declared as #setName: . It's alright with the inference rule of Meta (as I far as I remember) but not with the new one. We should add those accessors in Famix2 for seamless access. (FAMIX.Class (id: 3) (name 'Object') (belongsTo (idref: 6)) (isAbstract false) (isInterface false) C) Fame does not recognize the idref: syntax, only the ref: syntax. The MSE spec is inconsistent about that: the grammar only defines the ref: syntax as Fame does, but the doc talks about both an IDREF command and a 'REF command for metamodels only'. D) Finally, the biggest hurdle is that we dont know directly with which version of Famix the file was created. For example, the FAMIX package in SqMoose matches Famix3, and Famix2 is defined in a FAMIX2 package. This leads to a mismatch when trying to load the above file which was generated with Famix2 (unless batch editing all FAMIX -> FAMIX2) My suggestion is that each Famix metamodel should explicitely declare its version in its Fame package name, either Famix2 or Famix3, like that: FAMIXClass class>>annotation <MSEClass: #Class super: 'FAMIX3.Type'> <package: #FAMIX3> ^self Does it sound ok? -- Simon

Moose in Squeak is getting fast :-)
by Alexandre Bergel 24 Feb '09

24 Feb '09

Time millisecondsToRun: [| view | view := MOViewRenderer new. view nodes: (1 to: 50) forEach: [:each | view nodes: (1 to: 10) forEach: [:ea | view nodes: (1 to: ea * each). view gridLayout]. view gridLayout]. view open] => 18955 in Pharo => 23566 in VW :-) And I am sure there are rooms for improvement (IdentityDictionary are used with a small number of elements, a lot of OrderedCollection are used, ...)

Reordering nodes in MORoot
by Alexandre Bergel 22 Feb '09

22 Feb '09

Hi Mondrian friends, While doing a drag and drop, I am reordering the nodes in a MORoot: the dragged node is put at the end of the "root nodes" to make it the last to dislpay it on the screen. I am just wondering whether this will not interfere with other behavior.

Properties in SqMoose
by Alexandre Bergel 22 Feb '09

22 Feb '09

Dear SqMoose Crew, I have a question about properties. In FileImportTest>>testFiles, there are accesses to properties, e.g., self assert: (file propertyNamed: #TLOT) = 1. self assert: (file propertyNamed: #NOCh) = 0. (file propertyNamed: #TLOT) returns nil. It seems that the computing is not done. However, if I manually trigger the computation, getting the property returns the expected value as in: self assert: (file totalNumberOfLinesOfText = 1). "If I remove this line, the next one return nil" self assert: (file propertyNamed: #TLOT) = 1 Any idea ? It seems that the meta stuff is not able to retrieve the method that contains the property. Any idea why? Cheers, Alexandre -- _,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;: Alexandre Bergel http://www.bergel.eu ^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;._,.;:~^~:;.

multi-line label
by Alexandre Bergel 21 Feb '09

21 Feb '09

Dear List, I was wondering why a UML diagram cannot be obtained through: -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | builder view | builder := MOFormsBuilder new. builder column; fill. builder row; fill; row; fill. builder x: 1 y: 1 add: (MORectangleShape new). builder x: 1 y: 1 add: (MOLabelShape new text: [:cls | cls name]). builder x: 1 y: 2 add: (MORectangleShape new). builder x: 1 y: 2 add: (MOLabelShape new text: [:cls | cls methodDict keys inject: '' into: [:sum :el | sum, el, String cr]]). view := MOViewRenderer new. view nodeShape: builder shape. view draggable. view popupText. view nodes: {MONExplicitIdentityNormalizer}. view layout: MOTreeLayout new. view open -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= This is not polished, but having multi-lines label seems to be interesting...
