Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author	Files	Lines
2014-07-27	dispatcher: Really merge it, verify that install is calledHEAD master	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	3	-2/+6

2014-07-27	dispatcher: Merge code from Norbert to allow to install alternative dispatchers	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-3/+19
	Norbert introduced the MockDispatcher to get nice and direct exceptions.
2014-07-27	timer: Prevent a potential race with the loop process resumption	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	2	-14/+19
	It is possible that the "loop" has determined there are no pending timers but then the insertion application is executing and is inserting a timer. Once the loop is executing again it will sleep as there was no timer and we will miss the wake-up until there is another timer.
2014-07-27	timer: Implement the shutdown for GNU Smalltalk too.	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-0/+6

2014-07-27	timer: Merge the timer changes from norbert and some races fixes	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	5	-31/+118
	Allow timers < 1 second and have the timer loop wait for the closest time. This is not completely race free yet.
2014-07-21	timer: Assign the loop _before_ running the process	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-3/+6
	Avoid a potential race condition. Assign the loop variable before starting the process. Otherwise the effect on loop could be that a terminated process is being assigned. Spotted while reviewing a problem Norbert experienced in Pharo
2014-03-14	timer: Forget about the block to help the GC	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-0/+1
	After a timer has been canceled we can forget about the block that was supposed to be canceled. It is only a matter of time until the timer will be discarded by the TimerScheduler.
2014-02-12	extensions: Add copyright statements from Pharo	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-6/+12

2014-02-12	timer: Another approach to fix the issues on Pharo	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	2	-29/+28
	Pharo's DateAndTime/Delay and VM interaction is bogus. If we execute DateAndTime/Delay too early things will get stuck and take 100% of the CPU.
2013-10-07	delay: Try to make it work better on Pharo	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	2	-4/+8
	Do not attempt to terminate a process, just signal the lastDelay to kick the queue again.
2013-04-30	compat: Add >>#deprecated: for Pharo compat to indicate old methods	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-0/+6

2013-04-01	pharo: Create >>#initialize methods that are called during load	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-0/+11

2013-02-23	pharo: Add a test case for ?: syntax of the macro expansion	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-0/+9

2013-02-23	pharo: Introduce the expandMacros related String classes from Pharo	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	3	-0/+106
	The >>bindWith: or >>% is not available in Pharo and other dialects. From a licensing point of view it is easier to introduce the Pharo equivalent to GST than to use the GST code in Pharo. Add a simple testcase for some parts of the API. Pharo doesn't appear to use the % and ? syntax at all.
2013-02-20	misc: Avoid using the CharacterArray>>% as it is not available in Pharo	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	2	-2/+3

2013-02-20	dispatcher: Add a small testcase for the dispatcher in error conditions	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	2	-0/+17

2013-02-20	pharo: The TimerDispatcher needs more work on Pharo for image resume	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	3	-1/+34
	In Pharo the Delay>>wait for one second will not expire anytime soon in a new image. Use the depedency handling so we can terminate and restart the loop.
2013-02-20	dispatcher: Dispatch the blocks in a new process to avoid termination	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-2/+9
	Avoid the dispatcher process from being terminated. Dispatch the block in a new context. This is easier than detecting the termination and then respawn it.
2013-02-15	misc: Ignore the fileout.st generated by the convert target	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-0/+1

2013-02-10	pharo: Work on the automatic fileout to pharo	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	3	-2/+33
	Remove the PackageLoader fileInPackage statement as it is conflicting with the export as there is no PackageLoader in Pharo. Add a Makefile to help with invoking the export and create a compat_for_pharo.st for the methods not provided by Pharo. The testcase is working now.
2013-02-10	misc: Modernize the category names to help with MontiCello grouping	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	2	-2/+2

2012-08-08	process: Name all processes started by osmo-core	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	2	-2/+8

2011-09-27	core: Add proper categories to the class, call it OsmoCore	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	3	-3/+7

2011-07-06	timer: Try to avoid copying the entire timerlist all the timer	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-20/+15
	Make sure that we only remove from one process, this way we can check if the list is empty without having a lock. The list is sorted so even if we get interrupted between the [condition] whileFalse: [res] and someone adds an older timer, it is okay to use this timer.
2011-07-06	dispatcher: Run the dispatch queue with a higher priority	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-1/+1
	We want the dispatching to happen faster, change the priority and see how things will turn out.
2011-06-29	timer: Dispatch the whole timer in the main block.	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-2/+6

2011-06-28	dispatcher: Introduce a dispatcher than can dispatch things...	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	4	-5/+76
	When dispatching everything in the same context we avoid all kind of issues with locking. If we use a truely multi threaded VM we could probably use multiple dispatchers.
2011-06-28	timer: Fix the comments, try to be more clear about what happens	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-3/+3

2011-06-22	timer: Ignore already removed timers	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	1	-1/+1

2011-06-22	timer: Add the initial version of the timer code	Holger Hans Peter Freyther	5	-0/+250
	The code comes from the OsmoGSM repository but didn't have a lot of history.
