determining "save" or "cancel" status on #rendered Magritte component...

by Richard E. Flower

Lukas et-al, I've got my test Magritte form working from a renderContentOn: block without issue (data is displayed,buttons exist,no complaints, etc).. Anyway, at the bottom of the form (using the code below) are 3 buttons (save,cancel and then my 'done' button).. The thing I'm having a hard time with (which was easy when using #call and #answer) is how to determine what button was pressed (save,cancel).. Ideally, I don't care to have a "done" button but I do need to distinguish between save and cancel.. What's the best approach for this? I copied the onAnswer: block from another old Magritte email thread but its only called when cancel is pressed.. Thx! renderContentOn: html component := (self session user) asComponent addValidatedForm; onAnswer: [ :value | self answer: value ]; yourself. html div id: 'fullwidthContent'; with: [ html div id: #fieldsetEnclosure; with: [ html render: component. html submitButton callback: [self answer: 'foo']; text: 'Done' ] ] -- Rick

What does reduce: get used for?

by Richard E. Flower

I'm not completely following what its purpose is? Below is the code from the Magritte, living in the SequenceableCollection object: reduce: aBlock | result | self isEmpty ifTrue: [ ^ nil ]. result := self first. 2 to: self size do: [ :index | result := aBlock value: result value: (self at: index) ]. ^ result In my case, it is causing problems on VW when it calls aBlock (near the end) and passes in a pair of Characters which are processed by MAComponentRenderer>>classFor: which then tries to do a string append (#,) which gives a DNU since VW's characters (and I think Squeak from what I can tell) do not have concat methods (#,).. Am I missing something? Below is the code that calls reduce: MAComponentRenderer>>classFor: aDescription | classes item | item := (component description = aDescription ifTrue: [ component ] ifFalse: [ self childAt: aDescription ]) ifNotNilDo: [ :comp | comp model ]. classes := aDescription cssClassesForItem: item. (self hasError: aDescription) ifTrue: [ classes add: 'error' ]. ^ classes reduce: [ :a :b | a , ' ' , b ]

[smallwikki/pier] Magma on squeak-web 3.10 image

by David Zmick

I tried to run the installer script for Magma-Pier from http://www.iam.unibe.ch/pipermail/smallwiki/2007-April/002794.html, and it didn't work, not that i am surprised, the script is for a fresh image. What packages to i need to install to this image to get Pier to work with Magma? -- David Zmick /dz0004455\ http://dz0004455.googlepages.com http://dz0004455.blogspot.com

about making magritte more flexible... and founding the case for L17N

by Esteban Lorenzano

Hi, This is a "disgression" of something I thought/implement last week and I want to put into consideration, in order to know if is a valuable contribution or just another stupid idea :) First let mu put some context information: I'm using magritte for some production applications, who has two major requirements: L&F and L17N. For major of my needs, magritte fits quite well, but it still have some restrictions: 1) No L17N in labels and buttons. 2) Buttons are texts and usually clients ask for images, images/texts, etc. There are some other restrictions, but achievable by simply extending magritte system (such as image report columns, etc.) How do I solved this problems? Well, first I simply added a "localized" method on String who asks for a property (language) in session and follow "translated" path to translate the string, and then I modified each method in magritte who outputs a label (they are not many, just 3 or 4). That solves my L17N problem. Now, I want to make my buttons more fashionable... this is harder because of the places where I have to change things... but again, extending MAFormDecoration and MACommandColumn... and aplying that to every component who uses a report... problem solved. But, what if I what my buttons different, or even configurable? This is my approach: instead having buttons and links displayed in columns or forms, I created a Command, and then I whant to add that commands by visiting different renderers, magritte style visitors. So, if I want to change the displaying style, I just add a new renderer... And as an "extra bonus" there I can handle L17N stuff. What do you think? is this good approach?

Bug in latest version of MADivsRenderer..

by Richard E. Flower

Keith -- I was trying out your MADivsRenderer this evening and found that if my description class has no cssClass specified, that the following causes problems when the call to "(self classFor: aDescription)" returns nil.. It then tries to append "clear" to the list and that gets me a DNU.. It took me a while to track it down as I initially thought it might be a general Migritte issue.. Anyway, MAComponentRenderer>>classFor: has a call to #reduce at the end and if the class list is empty it returns nil which is where the initial nil is coming from. I checked to see what Squeak has for the #reduce: method and it also returns nil when the OrderedCollection is empty -- so this bug should be reproducible on Squeak as well.. I suppose one work-around would be to change MAComponentRenderer>>classFor: to check if it gets nil back from the reduce call and not return a nil object or perhaps something else like changing MADivsRenderer>>renderContainer to check the return value of #classFor: to see if it gets a nil back and if so create a string object.... comments/suggestions welcome..

Pier videos - not working for me

by Squeaker

Greetings, The videos at http://www.lukas-renggli.ch/smalltalk/pier are causing me some problems. When I download a video, e.g, "Creating Pages and Files" and play it, all I see is the initial page just sitting there. No mouse movement, nothing changes and there is no audio. Is anyone else experiencing this? I am using Windoze XP and using VLC Media Player to play the video. Thanks, Frank

Fwd: [Help-smalltalk] Magritte ported to GNU Smalltalk

by Lukas Renggli

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Paolo Bonzini <bonzini(a)gnu.org> Date: Aug 14, 2008 10:45 AM Subject: [Help-smalltalk] Magritte ported to GNU Smalltalk To: help-smalltalk(a)gnu.org I committed a port of Magritte and of the Seaside bindings to Magritte. This highlighted a few bugs (in the class library and in gst-convert) and provided a better stress test for the Seaside/Swazoo pair. You can test Magritte-Seaside by doing gst-package --start Seaside Magritte-Seaside and pointing your browser to http://localhost:8080/seaside/editor.

Sample code using MACssRenderer, MADivsRenderer or Magritte-ComponentDecoration?

by Richard E. Flower

Hi all.. I'm trying to wrap my brain around the above classes and what they offer over the default rendering that Magritte offers (MATableRenderer)... To that end, I've seen a few little snippets using a little of the above but still can't seem to figure out the typical usage scenario.. I've got existing css that I would like to use to dress up various pieces of one or more objects -- similar to what Keith has submitted in photo form here on this mailing list earlier this year (enclosing various fields in boxes,etc).. Anyway, if someone can post a little code that can do something akin to that, that would get me past my current hurdle.. MANY thanks in advance! -- Rick
