This is the second entry of the series about implementing full-text search indexes in Pharo. The first entry is Implementing Indexes – A Simple Index. You can start reading from this post, but there are things that we have presented in the previous one. For example, how to install the Trie implementation. In the first entry,Continue reading “Implementing Indexes – Who uses all my memory”

[Pharo features] The fusion of a developed program and IDE
In this series of blog-posts, we are explaining in more detail the Pharo features described in https://pharo.org/features. Pharo follows several design principles, and one of them says that the interaction between the human and computer should be modeless. The interface needs to be as direct and intuitive as possible. If you try to think forContinue reading “[Pharo features] The fusion of a developed program and IDE”
Implementing Indexes – A Simple Index
In Pharo, we have an excellent tool to query, navigate and discover classes and methods in the system. The tool is Spotter, this tool allows us to search the image for different elements: Classes Methods Menu entries Help topics and many more… To access to it is as easy as doing Shift + Enter, SpotterContinue reading “Implementing Indexes – A Simple Index”
Complishon: efficient heuristics for code completion
A couple of weeks ago I started prototyping a new code completion backend. The one available in Pharo 8.0 is good-enough to complete variables and messages to literal objects. However, the accuracy of the completion was pretty low because auto completion candidates were sorted alphabetically, and this was even producing completion pauses for large images.Continue reading “Complishon: efficient heuristics for code completion”
