lizmat is this a known issue on HEAD? 04:56
$ perl6 -e 'use Inline::Perl5'
===SORRY!===
Cannot unbox a type object (int64) to int.
04:57 vrurg left 05:23 lizmat left 05:54 lizmat joined
MasterDuke lizmat: oh, i didn't have Inline::Perl5 installed, that's probably because of my default-int merges 05:58
lizmat which is post-release, right ?
MasterDuke yeah 05:59

lizmat hopes MasterDuke will be able to fix Inline::Perl5 soon 06:45
MasterDuke lizmat: making progress 06:50
lizmat MasterDuke++
fwiw, this also affects zef, at least for me: 06:52
$ zef upgrade
===SORRY!===
Cannot unbox a type object (NQPMu) to int.
MasterDuke yep, saw that too
lizmat ok :-)
06:53 patrickb joined
lizmat MasterDuke: do you have any rollback suggestions at this time ? 06:53
MasterDuke ? 06:54
if you rollback to right before the nqp bump it should be fine
Kaiepi .tell timotimo can we talk about whether or not i need to rebootstrap nqp for my nativecall wide string support pullreq again? i ran into an issue that may require it
yoleaux Kaiepi: I'll pass your message to timotimo.
lizmat git checkout d4ceb97e06cd01babdd34356140 and a reconfigure, does not even build :-( 06:56
MasterDuke lizmat: using --gen-nqp ? 06:59
lizmat perl Configure.pl --gen-moar --gen-nqp --make-install
to be exact
I actually nuked the nqp dir, but it didn't refetch not recompile it 07:00
guess I need to nuke more
MasterDuke the install directory probably
is there a way to pass --ll-exception through all the calls zef makes? 07:01
if not, definitely ++ to ugexe's suggestion of a LL_EXCEPTIONS env variable 07:02
lizmat I think you can call zef as "perl6 --ll-exception .../zef ?
MasterDuke yep, but it doesn't pass that through
===> Testing: Inline::Perl5:ver<0.40>:auth<github:niner>===SORRY!===Cannot unbox a type object (int64) to int. in block <unit> at t/argv.t line 8 07:03
lizmat well, I have Inline::Perl5 already installed
and I can give you a trace of 'use Inline::Perl5
?
MasterDuke please
lizmat gist.github.com/lizmat/83476091b86...05bab53986 07:04
lizmat hopes that is helpful 07:11
MasterDuke got farther, but new error 07:12

unfortunately, i gotta afk for a bit
lizmat MasterDuke: ok, I'm nuking all of my install and rebuild from before the NQP bump 07:18
annoying, but that's life on the edge :-)

patrickb .tell ugexe Putting a space in the appveyor build path sounds good! But note that non-Windows currently does not work in a path with spaces (the dyncall build currently doesn't support that on Linux). 08:07
yoleaux patrickb: I'll pass your message to ugexe.
patrickb .tell ugexe On a related note. There are many different build setups that we support and don't want to break, but that do break time and time again. (Windows: cl/mingw/clang, 1/3 prefixes, non-reloc/reloc, Linux: gcc/clang, 1/3 prefixes, non-reloc/reloc) 08:08
yoleaux patrickb: I'll pass your message to ugexe.
patrickb .tell ugexe I do like to have a way to automatically test all of these when making changes to the build system. But I don't like inflating the CI. Do you know whether it's possible to have travis/appveyor/circleci jobs that don't run automatically, but can be triggered?
yoleaux patrickb: I'll pass your message to ugexe.
patrickb .tell ugexe Also, do you intend to get rid of Travis, now that we have CircleCI up and running? 08:09
yoleaux patrickb: I'll pass your message to ugexe.
08:15 lizmat_ is now known as lizmat
Kaiepi so i'm starting my work on the changes to CStr's REPR needed for wide string support 09:04
should i add a variable to storage specs containing the native type of whatever they contain or should it stay separate? 09:05
since P6int and P6num already have native type variables in their state as well
MasterDuke nine: ping 09:49
lizmat: think it's fixed. just running a spectest to make sure it didn't cause any other regressions 10:09

Default-int fixes for zef and Inline::Perl5
10:30
MasterDuke lizmat: can you pull and try at current HEAD?
Kaiepi .tell timotimo never mind, i didn't end up needing to rebootstrap after all 10:55
yoleaux Kaiepi: I'll pass your message to timotimo.

(and it was clean)
MasterDuke glad to hear it 12:40
masak MasterDuke: it strikes me that the issue cf6fd926 fixes could have been detected statically. I feel strangely inclined to put together something that would check for that, maybe as early as tonight. what's your opinion? 12:41
MasterDuke masak: that seems possible. i was just concerned with getting the bugs fixed (and getting something merged at all) 12:47
i'd be very curious to see what you come up with
masak hey, no criticism implied at all -- great work on fixing the direct problem! :+1: 12:49
I'm thinking a quick-and-dirty approach might use Perl 5, regexes, and Text::Balanced 12:50
a longer-term fix could maybe hook into the AST stage of the nqp compiler
MasterDuke no worries, didn't think that was criticism 12:54

masak it's just that I've gotten attuned lately to issues of the type "this could have been prevented by a machine that can double-check the code on a structural level" 13:04

Kaiepi i asked before, but what are storage specs used for with reprs? would it be a good idea to add a variable stating the type of what's being stored to it? 21:28
timotimo storage spec is for a lower-level thing than types are 21:29
a storage spec will, for example, allow P6opaque to inline a native int inside of its parent object
so that a class with has int8 $.foo; int8 $.bar; int8 $.baz; int8 $.bloop; will actually only use 4 bytes for that piece of data 21:30
Kaiepi ohh
neat
timotimo almost everything that "holds a type" will have a reference, though 21:31
Kaiepi why do P6int and P6num copy members between their repr data and the storage spec though?
on moar at least 21:32
timotimo not sure what you are refering to; do you have a link? 21:33
Kaiepi my dns is shitting itself, check mk_storage_spec and type_object_for in src/6model/reprs/P6int.c 21:35
nvm fpaste.scsys.co.uk/585208 21:36
timotimo i'm looking at it locally 21:37
that's less "what does it store", that's more of "what am i"
Kaiepi so it specifies what's getting inlined? 21:39
timotimo every ST has a WHAT in it 21:41
you can get from a type object to the STable and from the STable to its type object
Kaiepi STABLE(typeobj), st->WHAT right? 21:45
last question, does CStr need a storage spec in its REPR data when i'm storing a type, number of bits, and its sign in it? 21:48
timotimo yep, though STABLE goes with every object 21:50
storage spec is for the other types to use, whereas the repr data is for the type itself to use 21:51
the storage spec is basically a unified API that is the same across all 6model objects
whereas the REPR_data can be freely defined by the type using it
Kaiepi so it sounds like no since afaik strings can't be inlined in REPRs like CStruct/CPPStruct/CUnion 21:57
timotimo we do have support for CArray inlined in CStruct/CPPStruct at least 21:58
but strings have even less theoretical support for a specified length
Kaiepi making that possible sounds out of the scope of what i'm doing 22:03

timotimo aye 22:07
i'm still not sure i understand how the inlining of arrays inside of structs actually worked
