Help needed

I get an app that I made in Squeak. I would like to print the content of some OrderedCollection but don't know how to do that.
I thought to us a FileStream but never worked with Stream before any clue or reference is welcome.
My objectif is to print a list of my orderedCollection. I want a hard copy...

It depends on what you mean by printing. Normally you print to
Transcript. Just open the Transcript window from the Tools menu and do:
Transcript showln: collection.

Does it solve your problem?

Hi Raymond,

the easy part is:
|file|
file := StandardFileStream forceNewFileNamed: 'yourFilename'.
file nextPutAll: 'your collections contents as a String'
file close.

The hard part is how to print your collection (and if necessary its
elements) as a string.
You add to the stream with file nextPut: for single charcters or
nextPutAll: for Strings.

You'd need to give some details about your collection for more help.

Cheers,

Herbert

A common way is to write your own print method, so it will print as you want it anywhere, whether you send it to the Transcript or as a result in a work space. Example:

printOn: aStream

aStream nextPutAll: 'My result = ', result printString, ' data = ', data variable.

Re: Help needed

This is a Maui UI

Herbert König said: "You'd need to give some details about your collection for more help." So it is:

When i select 'fileOutMedicaments' , I want to produce a text file that I can print with a printer. And the content would be the 'sortedMedicaments' list. I don't want to print to Transcript. It is easy to export in graphic format but I want a text file…At least something I can open in a text editor an say "Print"…to get hard copy.

So the content is : #date, #temps, #nom, #commentaire.

You have three options:
1. To create a normal text file (.txt)
2. To create a PostScript file (.ps)
3. To create an image (.jpg or .png)

Please choose one. :-)

P.S.
PostScript files can be printed directly in Linux. In Windows it
depends on your printer. If it supports PostScript you can send it
directly, if not you need some software, like GhostScript.
