Slime rule 'Uses not portable class' flags Delay

[Stan Shepherd]

Hi, I'm getting the Delay class flagged as non-portable by Slime rules, but no explanation at http://www.seaside.st/community/conventions.

Delay uses Semaphore. Is there a standard alternative to Delay for Seaside?

Thanks,     ...Stan

I should have also asked the same for Mutex.    ...Stan

No. Not that this rule only applies if you want to write code that is
portable across Smalltalk dialects. If you want your code to just run
on one dialect then it's fine to use it.

There was once discussion about whether we should add WAP. However
HTML and a mobile profile seemed the way to go back then.

If you do it you'll need a custom canvas, tags, root and maybe document class.

Nah, not so such. It just needs somebody who does it and somebody who uses it.

Cheers

is attractive for applications with a target of people with very very  
low resources (so cheap cellphones). Also for (crazy) iphonephobic  
people.
the costly part I saw, was about phones redering the pages differently
too many to try to support them

Yeah, I did bck in 2005-6. I made a WAWmlCanvas and associated classes to spit out WML pages.
Worked really well. Probably not compatible with 2.8.

I may need a WAP interface again in the future so I would like to follow Seaside WAP dev if anyone is doing this.

oh, good to know that.
I'm also may need to make an UI in WAP.
Curious, did you find significant problems about different phones and  
how the pages were displayed?
cheers
