It's going to cost something 'cus it has to allocate a Scalar container per item 09:56
timotimo and if you put the declaration of the scalar outside, it'll become a lexical access, which isn't cheap either 09:57
nine timotimo: yeah, who gets by without a high availability washing machine cluster these days?

alexk nine: that's ok - just to get an idea how fast perl5's split is ... 10:26
nine ~ crazy fast? ;) 10:27
alexk yeah - especially compared to perl6's regex split ... 10:28
timotimo it's not news that perl6 regexes have gigantic overhead for start/stop 10:29
nine There's so much left to do in the compiler...
jnthn There always will be. :-) 10:30
Given the number PhDs earned each year coming up with shiny new optimization techniques :)
nine We could for example statically optimize a split(/[,;]/, 'a,b,c;d,e,f') to 'a,b,c;d,e,f'.split((',', ';')) 10:34
timotimo yeah if regexes kept around some more info about their contents 10:37
that'd also be nice for stuff like ~~ m/"foo"/ being turned into a .contains call 10:38

i guess)

Juerd Is there a way to filter output from put and say, similar to Perl 5's TIEHANDLE? 11:23
11:23 mr-fooba_ joined 11:24 mr-foobar left
timotimo you can override $*OUT, if you use "but" and a role you'll "keep" whatever was set before 11:28
i.e. if that was already a "magical" thing
11:29 emeric joined
Juerd Hm, overriding is a start. But how do I hijack the output to modify it? And can I still access the original $*OUT to prevent recursion? 11:35
timotimo you can make your role parametric and stash the original $*OUT in the parameter
my $*OUT = $*OUT but ChangedFrom[$*OUT];

timotimo currently the IO::Handle class isn't very friendly to subclass
oh, well, i guess that's that :)
Juerd Ooh, what is | called?
lizmat basically it's short for an unnamed capture
timotimo anonymous capture
Juerd And why does this work? :) 11:44
lizmat because sub print calls $*OUT.print ?
Juerd I mean, why does it work with (|) but not without?
lizmat because then you have a method that doesn't accept any parameters except the object 11:45
hence the "expected 1 but got 2"
Juerd Ah, right. Brain's still stuck in Perl 5 land regarding arguments sometimes
11:45 ufobat left
timotimo if you had used @_, it would have worked, no? 11:46
lizmat I believe you want sub print(*@_) { } then
Juerd And the 1 but got 2 thing doesn't fully register because the invocant is counted too :)
Ran into that a few times, can't get used to it :(
lizmat yeah, actually, that feels like an LTA error message
because the error message *does* know it's about a method 11:47

camelia first-testsecond-test
third-test
Juerd And all this because I need a feature in ansi escape sequences that doesn't exist: restore previous color. 11:51
So I'll just parse the string, keep a stack and pop that with a custom ansi-ish escape. 11:52
There's not inverse 'when', is there? 11:54
I have a few ugly "when $_ !~~ ..."
I guess I could do "when none ..." 11:55

Juerd Is there a way to determine whether an exception is a built-in Perl 6 exception type? 13:42
13:43 Cabanossi joined, spider-mario joined 13:44 astj joined
perlpilot Juerd: I doubt it. 13:44
moritz Juerd: not really; that's rarely a useful distinction
perlpilot Juerd: I guess you could grep rakudo/src/core/Exception.pm to see if it appears there 13:45
Juerd moritz: I think it is. The built-in ones indicate programming errors, whereas the ones I add are mostly user errors.
moritz maybe you can look at CORE:: if it's in there somewhere
Juerd perlpilot: Yep, did do that. They all just inherit from Exception only
Of course, I can decorate my own exceptions. Was just curious if I had to 13:46
lucasb maybe differentiate the ones that are under the "X::" namespace and those that are not 13:47
Juerd lucasb: That's harder because smart matching doesn't do prefixes or wildcards :) 13:48
perlpilot lucasb: sure, that would be by convention though ... nothing stopping someone from violating that convention. (might really matter when it's a 3rd party lib that does so)
Juerd In my current use case, the difference between X::AdHoc and everything else is good enough

hythm hello perl6, I'm working in a file parsing program, wrote Grammar actions class with a hash attribute, and wrote the action method that is called after each line to insert into the hash. I can print the hash content from the method, but when I print it from MAIN it's empty. 15:21
what am i missing? here is the code gist.github.com/hythm7/f80b2d291df...437b72fcef
timotimo i suggest you leave out passing "my %logs" to LogActions.new (so that a new hash gets created for you in the actions class) and then grab it out using the action class' .logs method 15:23
moritz hythm: you seem to be doing a weird mixture of passing around hashes but also modifying a shared hash. I suggest you settle for one paradigma (preferrably returning data instead of mutating it in place)
15:24 astj joined
hythm timotimo makes sense, trying that now 15:25

mr_ron I am interested in learning a bit about garbage collection. Yesterday I showed a MoarVM memory panic on #perl6-dev - irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6-dev/2017-...i_14893012 . I reproduced it on my system and it looks like the concatenation just keeps gobbling memory, never frees and eventually runs out. In this case when memory runs out shouldn't the GC try to recover some? 16:46
ugexe if memory runs out what memory would the GC use to recover memory? 16:47
mr_ron The total string length is 7_000_000 characters and the ulimit is 1 GB 16:48

hythm timotimo when I understood that part of not passing %log to the Actions class and made the change in the gist, but what I dont understand is how to grab %logs out, If I used LogActions.new.logs it will be empty because it creates a new object. 17:07
timotimo right, you will want to store your LogActions.new in a variable, pass it to the parse call and later grab $my-log-actions.logs to get the hash 17:08

ugexe i just reran after building with a rakudo built from HEAD and it was `2,093,230,194 bytes allocated` with the same number allocs and frees 17:26
approx the same anyway
mr_ron If I set a "ulimit -v 1024000" the in use at exit goes way up to 1/2 GB. Maybe the in use at exit if it runs to completion allows for freeing some extra memory. 17:29
ugexe probably samcv's recent commits in moarvm are responsible for the reduced bytes allocated github.com/MoarVM/MoarVM/commits/master 17:30
timotimo is working on something 17:31

ugexe no no, rakudobrew build moar-blead 17:32

ugexe and if you ever want to update moar-blead, always do `rakudobrew nuke moar-blead` before doing `rakudobrew build moar-blead` again 17:33
timotimo mr_ron: what real-world code are you trying to simulate with this repeated concatenation benchmark? 17:34
ugexe he is tryign to learn about garbage collection 17:35
timotimo ah
mr_ron There is no real world use case. Perl 5 has no problems here. For large cases p6 is much slower and runs out of memory. 17:36
Cannot build Rakudo with backend 'moar-bleed': this backend does not exist.
ugexe blead, not bleed
mr_ron thx
timotimo i just put in something very similar to what we have for bigints that causes GC to run more often when huge objects are created 17:37
the thing is that the GC-managed portion of the MVMString is the same size no matter how many characters are in it 17:38
so we have to teach the GC to count some extra for such big objects

Juerd Is $foo.+method supposed to call multiple candidates of multi methods? 18:12
If not, I think the documentation is inaccurate.
If so, I think it's broken.
18:13 mr-foobar left, ChoHag joined 18:14 mr-foobar joined
timotimo For any method name, there may be some number of candidate methods that could handle the request: typically, inherited methods or multi variants. The ordinary "dot" operator dispatches to a method in the standard fashion. There are also "dot" variants that call some number of methods with the same name: 18:15
$object.+meth(@args) # calls all methods (1 or more, die if none) 18:16
ugexe m: role Bar { method xxx($a) { say $a * 2 } }; class Foo { method xxx($a) { say $a } }; my $foo = Foo.new; $foo does Bar; $foo.+xxx(1) 18:17
camelia 2

jnthn .? and .+ and .* are just about the MRO 18:24
.+ and .* will call a candidate that it finds at each level of the MRO 18:25
Multi-dispatch is orthogonal to this. In each class with multi candidates, there is a proto method that dispatches to the appropriate candidate
The proto if not present being produced by cloning the one in a parent class, if relevant 18:26
Or making a new one with an empty candidate list otherwise

nine I don't get this. I have a BOOTStr (i.e. a P6Str) in NQP. I unbox_s it, yet it still remains nqp::isstr? How do I get at the darn string? 18:46
timotimo but if you have nqp::isstr it already is a string? 18:47
nine Apparently not. The isstr op seems to check for P6str: GET_REG(cur_op, 0).i64 = obj && REPR(obj)->ID == MVM_REPR_ID_P6str ? 1 : 0; 18:48
jnthn nine: nqp::isstr takes an object, so if you nqp::isstr(nqp::unbox_s($s)) then it will box the result of the unbox
nine Also if I $err.print() it, it complains about the string being NULL
jnthn nqp::isnull_s(nqp::unbox_s($s)) will tell you if a null string got boxed, if that's what you're after
nine Ah isnull_s! 18:49
Zoffix nine: ah, right, I should've mentioned the latest code in nqp for that area isn't doing much :} along with needing nqp::isnull_s instead of nqp::isnull that nqp::can($error, 'message') is always false 18:51

jnthn Juerd: The role itself is composed rather than inherited. The `does` trait (in class C does R { }) composes the role into the class. The `does` infix operator performs a runtime mixin, meaning it creates an anonymous subclass of the type of the LHS, composes the role into that subclass, and then changes the type of the object to that new anonymous subclass. 20:19
class C does R1 does R2 { } will detect conflicts between R1 and R2; $x does (R1, R2) will do similar (it only creates one anon subclass and composes the roles into both) 20:20
Juerd I didn't know the difference between 'does' as a trait and 'does' as an infix was so big 20:21
20:22 rurban left
jnthn They're both composing roles into something, just in one case it's the class being declared (compile time) and in the other case into an individual object (runtime). 20:25
And the latter is done by the very same mechanism as the first, it's just an anonymous subclass they're being composed into 20:26
But it runs the same composition code otherwise :)
