vrurg I wonder: if an attribute from a parent class needs to be set at object initialization stage how could it be done? Neither $.parent-attr nor $!parent-attr are not available in TWEAK... 01:35
Zoffix how come $.parent-attr not available? 01:36

Zoffix try self.attr instead 01:37
vrurg No method error
geekosaur that's telling you the truth. the attribute exists, the iplicit etter and seter don't yet so $.x doesn't work

MasterDuke Herby__: you're going to far. your range goes to @array.elems - 1, but then you add 1 when indexing 02:46

Zoffix Is this meant to work like that? I'm surprised the variable gets interpreted like that. I would've thought it'd match just as plain string '$a'
sena_kun well, isn't it `<{}>` which gives you interpolation? 11:41
it's described at docs.perl6.org/language/regexes.ht...erpolation

sena_kun well, the question may be "aren't `''` quotes should imply "return a plain string here"", but `EVAL '$a'` gives you '5'. 11:43
and I guess in case of `<{ $a }>` those quotes are implied, but in `<{ '$a' }>` those are explicit. 11:44
just my guess though. :)

Fritz No. Undeclared routine: connect used at line 181 13:52

I looked at docs.perl6.org/language/modules#require but don't get it. 13:54
I am trying to use either DB::Pg (if on Linux) or DBIish (if on MacOSX). I works if I just use DB::Pg; use DBIish; but that seems both silly and dangerous ... 13:55
sena_kun well, I think that when you do `require DBIish`, you have a package under this name in scope(opposite to having a class under this name in scope). and now I need to remember how to get what you want... 13:57

sena_kun Fritz, not sure about that, to be honest. 14:01
Fritz According to docs.perl6.org/language/modules#Le...le_loading this should do what I want: my $db; if true { use DBIish; $db = DBIish.connect() } else { use DB::Pg; $db = DB::Pg.... } 14:03
Ok, thanks. I will try that. Seems to be working for the moment. 14:04
timotimo the "use" is at compile time in this code 14:05
so even though one is in the "then" and one in the "else" branch, both will be run 14:06
and if either is missing, compilation will fail
Fritz Ah, stupid me, you are right.
timotimo rakudo.org/post/lexical-require-upgrade-info - this should help
Fritz Thats why I wanted to require in the first place ...
timotimo correct
14:17 erana_ left
araraloren_ what about the `use :if` 14:17
Fritz Timo, the link you provides is basically the same info as in docs.perl6.org/language/modules#require ... I just cant' figure out what instead of DBIish.connect() I have to use.
timotimo oh
probably ::('DBIish').connect() 14:18
actually
14:19 pmurias left
timotimo it depends on how your code looks, but if you have like: my $connection; unless (try require DBIish) === Nil { $connection = (require DBIish).connect(...) }; without $connection { my $driver = (try require DB::Pg); unless $driver === Nil { $connection = $driver.connect(...) } }; without $connection { exit note "please install either DBIish or DB::Pg" } 14:21
that ought to work
Fritz This require DBIish; my $db = ::('DBIish').connect('Pg', :user<postgres>, :host<localhost>, :database<agrammon_dev>); gives No such method 'connect' for invocant of type 'DBIish' 14:23
I know I should add the try stuff, but that would be next. 14:24

camelia Type check failed in binding to parameter '@lst'; expected Positional[Int] but got Int (0)

timotimo the reason why you get 0 instead of Positional[Int] there is that you're telling the signature to unpack the first argument and find an array in its first slot 16:27
like this:

timotimo m: my &foo = -> ($a, $b) { say "a is $a and b is $b" }; foo([1,2])

ccc Ok, so the lesson is that the parameter unpacking doesn't descend into the container to check Positional[Foo], the sub or method has to do it itself? 16:46
timotimo types in perl6 are nominal, which means the name of the type is what counts
except it's not a name as in "string", but as in parameterized roles and such 16:47

timotimo nice array of ints you have there
would be a shame if someone put a LOL in it 16:50
pmurias jmerelo: I'm looking at the answer...
timotimo how would you like sub test(Int @foo) to behave? 16:51
ccc Look if you're expecting a container to contain nothing but type Foo, SOMETHING has to check it. We're just sweeping the difficulty to the caller if he has to do Array[Foo].new. 16:53
timotimo either that or you use the "where" or a named subset that has the check within it
github.com/zoffixznet/perl6-Subset-Helper - perhaps this is also interesting to you 16:54
ccc Yes I've played around with subset already. 16:55
timotimo if you want to, you can invert the responsibilities and have your library call a user-provided function and pass the container they want the user to fill 16:56
ccc If I'm designing an API for a module, I believe it's my duty to take care of the tedious little gotchas. It shouldn't be dumped on the user of the module.
timotimo right, which it won't be if you use subsets, right?
that was worded kind of poorly
the "tell don't ask" principle, or something 16:57
which is also good for multithreaded stuff, because it's easier to not mess up data accesses
i wish i remembered what talk it was from, jnthn had mentioned that in one place; probably the "8 ways to do concurrent programming" one? in the section about actors and monitors? 16:59
jnthn Thanks for multi-dispatch, it's entirely possible to have an API that both efficiently handles Array[Int] (e.g. O(1) check) *and* has a candidate that delegates to that doing the O(n) check.
yoleaux 12:15Z <Zoffix> jnthn: RE github.com/perl6/roast/commit/8b5e39093 Do you think there's some similarity between Lock::Async.lock/.unlock and IO::Handle.lock/.unlock? Because in that commit we spec Lock::Async.unlock to throw if not locked, but IO::Handle.unlock silently does nothing. Was wondering if this asymetry is acceptable.
jnthn oops, *thanks *to* multi dispatch
timotimo wow, that was a *fast* response to me mentioning you
jnthn hah, was just glancing the converstaion :) 17:00
timotimo convertion station?
jnthn *conversation :P
Yes, there's a mention of tell don't ask in that talk; also there's probably at least as much on it in my Objects ∩ Concurrency talk :) 17:01
pmurias jmerelo: I didn't even notice that flattening was described in more detail in the List class documentation
timotimo then that's potentially the better one
i should ingest more talks about design in that kind of space, surely 17:02
jmerelo pmurias: there's almost always the two parts: a detailed method-by-method documentation, and then a tutorial. Anyway, if you find something missing, please reformulate. Or if it's not clear enough that flattening was described there with more detail.
pmurias "except when they are not itemized or they are the single argument to an operation such as append:" seems unclear what operations flatten 17:03
17:05 bluezinc21 joined, bluezinc21 left
jmerelo pmurias: please clarify that in the issue, if you don't mind. 17:05
jnthn .tell Zoffix Both Lock and Lock::Async will complain about unlock while not held (difference being that Lock::Async isn't recursive). Both of those are in-process locks. File locks are just calling some OS-provided API; I'm guessing it doesn't error out, or we ignore the error. So we'd have to try to track it ourselves, though I don't know if we can without making a new gotcha. Needs exploring some more.
yoleaux jnthn: I'll pass your message to Zoffix.
pmurias jmerelo: how should I reference particular unclear sentences? 17:06
quote them?

jnthn masak: I think successive versions of the spec (that is, test suite) will gradually add more things as being detected at compile time; the introduction of such things needs to happen at langauge version boundaries, though. 19:45
masak: It's fair to say that hasn't been a particular focus so far, though. 19:46

pmurias masak: re static type checking, a big problem with that is that you can either disallow programs or allowed type errors at runtime 19:58
* disallow valid programs
masak jnthn: apologies, my use of "the spec" is archaic. I meant the synopses.
pmurias: would it be so bad to disallow mst's example program at compile time instead of failing at run time? 19:59
pmurias: I don't think I see your point about a big problem
jnthn pmurias: We may indeed make some programs fail by detecting problems they never concretely run into at runtime, yes, thus my comment about why extra checks want to come in at language version bumps. 20:00
masak oh right, true 20:01
pmurias masak: I mean you can either add a static type system *or* catch some type errors in an adhoc manner
masak agree it makes sense to turn on such strictures either behind a pragma, or at version boundaries
jnthn I don't really understand the statement "add a static type system". Perl 6 *has* a type system. We don't currently perform many possible analyses that it makes possible. 20:02
(Compile time analyses, to be clear) 20:03
20:03 pmurias left
jnthn But rather defer all enforcement until runtime. Bringing forward the point that we detect problems isn't adding a static type system, it's just better exploiting the one we have. 20:03
20:04 kurahaupo left, kurahaupo joined
masak it is a good point though that an improved static type system might start flagging up things that never actually caused problems in a working program 20:05
20:05 p6bannerbot sets mode: +v kurahaupo
jnthn Indeed. 20:06
hahainternet would ♥ to see improved static typing 20:07
jnthn Ah well, something to take some steps on for 6.e :)
20:10 pmurias joined, p6bannerbot sets mode: +v pmurias
pmurias jnthn: by adding a static type system I mean in the sense we could have a TypeScript like TypedPerl6 slang that would enforce type safety at compile time 20:13
jnthn: as opposed to the compiler catching obvious runtime errors at compile time
jnthn pmurias: That could happen *too*, but there's already bags of scope for doing more in core. 20:14
pmurias: With the type system we already have in the langauge.
Of course, I've no objections to somebody working on a slang like you describe also. :)
diakopter jnthn: typo "thanks to these change." 20:15
jnthn Where?
oh, I found it 20:16
pmurias is changing the type hierarchy at runtime disallowed in Perl 6?
jnthn In the default MOP, we don't really allow for that. Nobody has terribly missed it. :) 20:17
jnthn afk for a bit 20:18
diakopter: Fixed, thanks
pmurias has think if that would allow any crazy optimizations for the js backend :) 20:21

Cannot look up attributes in a GTK::RadioToolButton type objec

timotimo Xliff_: does it point to anywhere specific if you use --ll-exception? 20:54
Xliff_ Will check
Yes, but even with that location, the error makes no sense. 20:58
Found it. The problem was using ::?CLASS.name in the DEPRECATED trait message. 21:11
21:26 zonum9 joined, zonum9 left
timotimo ah, instead of .^name? 21:26
and for some reason the class also had a "name" method? 21:27
Xliff_ Yeah. Belonging to the top-level superclass. 21:28
So does ::?CLASS just replace the current class type object? 21:29
I thought it was a meta object.
21:30 lichtkind joined
timotimo you mean represent? 21:31
i do believe you get the type object from it
