Migrate code from Dolphin Smalltalk

Hi,

Does anybody know if there is a tool/package or something to import
Dolphin's chunked fileouts into Pharo?

The chunk format is different, as well as some methods not present in
Pharo classes (like #owningPackage:/#guid: among others).

If nothing exists, then I'll have to make it somehow.

Regards!

Hi Esteban:

I migrated several (little) things and I had to take care of the situations that you comment, I mean, I do not know any tool to help in this task.

Cheers.

Hi Esteban,

I wrote some code which makes a dolphin package appear as a changeset to
Pharo. Works fairly well.

However, I didn't tackle the automatic code conversion issues: methods
too long for pharo, Dolphin syntax extensions (##).

I solved it adding a few mock classes/methods, plus a bunch of regular
expressions to convert Dolphin chunk to Pharo chunk.

Dolphin uses methodsFor! and sets method category as a "do-it", while
Pharo defines the category and the stamp in methodsFor:stamp:!

It isn't super pretty, but got the job done.
(I was able to file-in a lot of code I did years ago saving me from
reinventing the wheel).

Regards!

Hi Esteban - might it be possible to put your script and mock classes on Smalltalk hub for future reference?

I might need to do something similar at some point - and it sounds workable with what you did.

Thanks for mentioning it.
