last Hello out there. How does one use STD.pm (at home, not the irc version here)? 01:12
TimToady I've used it occasionally 01:13
pugs_svn r27563 | lwall++ | [STD] start splitting out 'need' semantics from 'use'
r27563 | lwall++ | [STD] fix less-than-awesome message about null patterns, PerlJam++, moritz++
TimToady cd src/perl6
make
tryfile foo
or viv foo to get AST 01:14
last Wait, where is src/perl6? Is this in Pugs?
TimToady yes
have you a commit bit to the pugs repo?
last I think I do, though I haven't messed with it since the very early days. 01:15
TimToady any idea what the svn id was? 01:16
nevermind, found it
01:16 agentzh left
last ? 01:16
TimToady still at ralf.org?
last yes 01:17
TimToady I can renew it if you don't remember your password
last let me give it a try.
how did you figure out ralf.org? there aren't any obvious connections between this ID and that I can think of... 01:18
TimToady via colomon
your irc commection is colomon@ 01:19
last Ah. I see. :)
TimToady and that's your old svn id
last Thank you! Both for this help and for Perl in general.

Tene One issue... @*ARGS actually isn't usable at all for passing to a C function that expects argv... 06:49
06:49 kst joined
Tene NCI::Util's toolkit_init can use a parrot argv... but not a processed one like @*ARGS 06:49
so I saved the real argv into @*REALARGS 06:50
Su-Shee ooh, I like to test it - what's Elementry? 06:51
06:51 eMaX joined
moritz_ Tene: nice. 06:52
.oO( why does all GUI code has to look ugly like that? )
06:53
eternaleye That's the E17 toolkit, right?
Tene eternaleye: yes, one of them. 06:54
moritz_: I basically ported straight from C, with some minor OO stuff on top.
06:54 Rez joined
Tene I really want to make the OO interface a lot nicer. 06:54
Su-Shee moritz_: at least it's a common standard of ugliness ;)
Tene so... it needs some significant APi design. 06:55
06:55 Rez is now known as Guest90041
Tene I should post this to github. 06:55
Su-Shee Tene: it's perfectly readable if one knows gui toolkits...
moritz_ aye
Su-Shee (great. 3 days ago, I deleted all e17 stuff, because I didn't need it. ;) 06:56
06:56 ihrd left
Tene Heh. 06:57
lemme post this to github...
Su-Shee yes, please.
Tene github.com/tene/parrot-elementary/tree/master 06:58
first run build.sh to compile the needed .so
make sure you have elementary installed
then run run.sh, which just runs parrot with -X /usr/local/lib
I'm not sure what env var I could set to make that not required. 06:59
imgur.com/kgDVS.png
I need to wrap the rest of the widgets... 07:00
07:00 Guest90041 left
Tene need to define a few constants... 07:01
need to add a macro for the library init stuff
but, a good start
Su-Shee urgh.. elementary really depends on _anything_ :))
aeh, every.
Tene Yeah. ;) 07:05
um... there's one issue... I've been getting sporadic segfaults somewhere in one of the efl libs.
sometimes it takes me a few tries to start the app
once it starts, everything runs fine.
Su-Shee I just found the already compiled sources which I didn't delete.
Tene Also, everything runs perfectly inside of gdb
every time.
so, difficult to reproduce...
moritz_ Tene: you could try valgrind 07:06
Tene moritz_: clever. 07:07
I was thinking of trying to debug from a core file.
moritz_ (actually not clever, I just had lots of bad experience ;) 07:08
eternaleye Tene: Do you run into the issue where core files only have 2 stack frames?
Tene eternaleye: I have very little experience with core files. I loaded one into gdb a couple of days ago to see if I could do it, and the backtrace definitely had more than two stack frames...
eternaleye Hm. Maybe it's some setting here, then 07:09
Tene moritz_: segfault not reproducable under valgrind, of course.
moritz_ bah. 07:10
Tene moritz_: but the degfault is definitely happening in the e lib, not parrot, afaict.
eternaleye Tene: strace? 07:11
Tene so I'll report it to the e folks, and let them track it down.
07:11 frew_ left
Su-Shee (my coffee went cold, I haven't even got up yet.. and all to see a little window popping up.. ;) 07:14
Tene and to click the buttons!
Don't forget to click the buttons! 07:15
07:15 ihrd joined
Su-Shee ok, _that_ makes all the difference! :) 07:15
Tene hmm... I can add focus callbacks...
Su-Shee Tene: are you planning a little howto ala "how to wrap a c lib into parrot and make this a rakudo camel?" 07:16
Tene Um, sure.
I hadn't planned that yet.
But, would that be useful to someone, do you think?
Su-Shee Tene: to more or less everyone who's planning to make the usal 8604 c libs available to rakudo, I think. 07:17
Tene: specifically to everyone planning to wrap cairo, gtk, tk, qt, clutter ...
moritz_ aye.
various DB clients too
Tene Su-Shee: the way this *should* happen is that we could autogenerate these wrappers from the C headers.
there was even a project to do that, ncigen
but it's been pretty much abandoned. 07:18
moritz_ that's a shame
Tene The author lives in my city... I could track him down and "politely" convince him...
Su-Shee Tene: I personally gladly do it by hand as long as it's a little easier than XS..
Tene I've never done XS.
Su-Shee Tene: knocking at his door at 3 in the morning, abducting his cat..? ;)
Tene Exactly!
Su-Shee Tene: I took one look into it and didn't even start - I've always wanted to add xlib surfaces to cairo-perl 07:19
07:19 zamolxes joined
Tene there's an existing xlib wrapper for Parrot... but it's not usable from rakudo. 07:19
Su-Shee Tene: anyway - imagine a rakudo-wrapper around entire X including composite...
07:20 donaldh left
Tene It wouldn't take much to make it available from rakudo, though. 07:20
Su-Shee Tene: I'm drooling into my keyboard, now.
07:20 donaldh joined
Tene oh? for raw xlib? 07:20
Su-Shee ok, not for that, no. ;)
Tene heh
moritz_ the art of wrapping includes deciding what to wrap ;-) 07:21
Su-Shee Tene: what I'm thinking about is that OLPC's "sugar" project shows us, that there is no reason not to write shiny windowmanagers in a "scripting language". now imagine having extensive gui/graphic's bindings of all kinds in rakudo.
pugs_svn r27564 | moritz++ | [t/spec] remove a left-over .car
Su-Shee moritz_: tuna with goat cheese. ;) 07:22
Tene looks like someone started wrapping Qt.
Su-Shee: japhb has made OpenGL available from rakudo
Su-Shee Tene: Very nice. 07:23
Tene Su-Shee: does the elementary example work for you? 07:24
et.pir ?
Su-Shee Tene: have to update some stuff first, elementary doesn't play with older snapshots, it seems. 07:25
Tene or .pl ?

tann oh man 07:42
larry must've thought hard about this ...
it sucks nonetheless
Tene pugs never got adverbial block, iirc. 07:43
eternaleye tann: prefix:<:> is the Pair constructor (also known as 'adverbial' form). :something('value) makes the Pair 07:44
:something('value') makes the Pair something => 'value'
tann eternaleye: and i thought only pythonists care about whitespaces
eternaleye Omitting parens and value default it to Bool::True
tann: Perl only cares when leaving it out creates something abiguous to parse 07:45
*ambiguous
moritz_ Perl 6 cares much more about whitespace
07:45 ihrd joined
moritz_ not about leading whitespaces on lines though 07:45
tann and those error will appear ambiguous to perl6 novices 07:46
eternaleye (1..5).grep:{ $_ % 2 } # is (1..5).grep an invocant, or is { $_ % 2 } the key of a pair?
moritz_ it's an adverbial block, actually
tann so, .say for 1..100 :by(3) -> $i; will fail to parse
Su-Shee Tene: You've not just wrapped Elementary into parrot, you wrote a parrot version of the window-popup itself and wrapped this into rakudo?
tann lemme check

moritz_ adverbs on operators aren't implemented in Rakudo

When I did a Perl 5 training course last year, I included a slide in the OOP section showing how to do the example class in Perl 6 12:57

masak I think there's too much focus on the actual moment of release. there's so much to be done before that happens.
Matt-W Yes
I just like the day to day progression towards it
masak that's the only way to make it happen.
Matt-W One day we'll look at the language features and say 'hang on a sec, this is nearly done'
masak aye :) 12:58
Matt-W But for now it is enough to track the progress
And after all, most things that get implemented seem to get redesigned in the process
masak I take that as a very good sign.
takadonet I enjoy watching the progress that has been made so far but I so want to start using it daily at work
masak a spec that adapts to reality. 12:59

been a while since I read that one, so I probably will re-read it. 13:22
Su-Shee more detailed in a good way.

just not how MVC web frameworks function.
Su-Shee how exactly they implement the idea?
masak yes, something like that. 13:23
all the nitty-gritty details, ORM, templates and the like.
how it all fits together.
Matt-W masak: all lisp example code I've seen lately was indented very poorly
Su-Shee I found the mojo source very readable and helpfull.

Right now I get syntax error at STD.pm line 1, near "grammar STD:"
when I use stock Perl 5.10.0.
moritz_ how do you run it?
did 'make' succeed?
masak sounds like you're trying to run STD.pm with Perl 5.
colomon 'make' what? I was under the impression I didn't have to build pugs... 13:48
moritz_ colomon: there's a Makefile in src/perl6/ 13:50
colomon: independent from pugs
PerlJam colomon: you don't have to build pugs, but STD.pm isn't perl 5 code, so you have to build something that understands it :)
moritz_ (it's the pugs repo, but it doesn't built pugs to run 'make' in src/perl6/)
colomon Just tried it, hardcoded to /usr/local/bin/perl 13:51
Can I just do a quick search and replace on the perl6 directory to point it to my Perl 5.10?
PerlJam colomon: yep, it expects perl 5.10 to be in /usr/local
colomon: or you could create symlink from /usr/bin/perl to /usr/local/bin/perl if you have 5.10 installed 13:52
colomon I only have 5.10 installed on my personal account, not as root.
PerlJam oh, then yeah, change /usr/local/bin/perl everywhere to be your local copy of 5.10 13:53
also, make sure you have Moose installed

moritz_ I think pmurias++ is coming along very nicely
he basically did most of his dispatch work, and now has to optimize it

moritz_ with literal++ it's harder to tell for me 14:26
PerlJam literal was doing the docs?

speaking of that, what is the plan in Parrot for threading? 15:49
Tene masak: there are a few blockers...
PerlJam masak: as I've always heard it, the plan is "eventually" :) 15:50
Tene threads work okay under some restrictive conditions.
masak ok. I didn't even know whether it was underway, so that's good news to me.
Lorn does parrot/rakudo threads will be "JNI" like? 15:51

Lorn masak: do you have a example/link for threads in rakudo? 15:52
PerlJam rakudo: async { say "hi" } 15:53

Lorn PerlJam: :P
Tene masak: one of the parrot milestones coming up involves threads, but I forget which one. 15:56
masak Tene: ah.
async is, IIRC, a remnant of the STM ideas in Pugs -- and I'm informed that we don't believe in STM as fiercely any more, for whatever reason. 15:57
15:57 dakkar left
Tene trac.parrot.org/parrot/ticket/757 15:57
is the big blocker I found. In parrot you *can* make a thread, but if any classes with non-simple names exist, parrot crashes when trying to clone the interpreter. 15:58
masak Tene: thanks. trac, since about a week ago, only gives me redirect loops. :/
PerlJam masak: async is still mentioned in the spec.
masak PerlJam: it is indeed. 15:59
but only once in S04, and S17 is still slightly drafty I think.
moritz_ hasn't heard of async{} going away
masak I'm not saying it has gone away.
I'm just saying it stems from STM, which we don't believe in as fiercely any more. 16:00
for whatever reason.
Tene masak: so, once Parrot gets its threads fixed, I have an async {} implementation I can commit.
PerlJam so ... ultimately threads in perl still needs some loving.
masak Tene: cool!
16:00 gbacon left
masak wow, S17 is definitely drafty. 16:01
16:02 Psyche^ joined, ejs1 left
PerlJam masak: but async doesn't seem to be greatly related to STM. 16:03

Matt-W how do I return a value from some inline PIR? 16:12
PerlJam Matt-W: I think it's something like %r = $P0 ... but my memory is very rusty. 16:13
moritz_ it is.
erm, correct, not rusty ;-)
PerlJam Matt-W: $P0 would be the value you want to return in my example.
Su-Shee Tene: Did you read backlog? :) 16:16
Matt-W PerlJam: woo, thanks 16:17
had to pull in some stuff from other code
16:17 Patterner left
Matt-W turns out to return an integer you have to box it into a PMC and return that 16:17
16:17 Psyche^ is now known as Patterner
Matt-W woops 16:17
and I returned the wrong one
masak: gist.github.com/147817 <- look what I can do! 16:18
Now to fit it in somewhere appropriate...
PerlJam Matt-W: IO somewhere :) 16:19
Matt-W yeah
now according to S32::IO, this stuff lives in a class we don't have yet
and has a very strange interface
Parrot doesn't seem to have a way to call stat and get back everything at once, which is interesting 16:20
masak Matt-W++
Matt-W Implementing it is much easier than actually putting it somewhere useful 16:21

PerlJam er, be in exactly the right place I mean.
masak moritz_: one spelling nit: s/to some extend/to some extent/
PerlJam (of course the code should be correct :)
Matt-W well yes
but what form should it take
PerlJam Copy perl5
Matt-W Perl 5 has stat
to implement that I'd have to call Parrot's stat lots of times 16:24
PerlJam Well, I meant as far as the IO heirarchy goes. Make IO::File or somesuch.
or IO::FSNode if you want to be more S32-ish
Matt-W yes that's what S32 says
how do I add a new class to the setting?
moritz_ Matt-W: write a new file, add it to build/Makefile.in 16:25
git-add it
reconfigure, recompile, profit!
Su-Shee it's profit now? I though open source leads to fame and glory..
+t. 16:26
Matt-W that could be considered a form of profit
moritz_: thanks
moritz_ Su-Shee: profit on a meta level
Tene Su-Shee: yes, I read it.
PerlJam reconfigure, recompile, karma!
how's that?
Su-Shee PerlJam: very -do of rakudo :) 16:27

moritz_ masak: thanks. Clearly I shouldn't blog at 0.30AM ;-)
masak moritz_: yes, please keep blogging. even Knuth makes mistakes. 16:33
Matt-W isn't happy with this FSNode API
Su-Shee Tene: no. works perfectly stable here, anyway. :)
Matt-W still, I can implement it for now so I shall
moritz_ Matt-W: that's because it should be FSM ;-)
Matt-W FSM?
moritz_ the flying spaghetti monster can fix it all! 16:34
Matt-W yes, but it probably won't
Tene Su-Shee: I didn't wrap the PIr version of the basic window example, I reimplemented it in Perl 6.
so it's completely independent of the PIr version
masak Matt-W: also not happy with it. it feels way overdesigned.
Su-Shee Tene: aaah.. ok.
Matt-W masak: also, it puts file times in a hash 16:36
PerlJam Matt-W: why not go with something like IO::stat for now and let the future sort out that FSNode business? 16:37
(or IO::mtime in your case)
Matt-W that would be my preference 16:38
PerlJam rakudo doesn't currently have any API guarantees does it? 16:39
16:39 jan_ joined
TimToady S03 defines it as IO.m 16:39
Matt-W really 16:41
so IO.m('myfile')?
TimToady no IO('myfile').m
Matt-W ah
yes of course
PerlJam or $filename.IO.m
TimToady or 'myfile'.IO.m 16:42
yeah
PerlJam or $filename.IO ~~ :m
TimToady that too
Matt-W blinks
the last one seems odd
PerlJam rakudo doesn't grok $filename.IO yet though
TimToady Matt-W: it just falls out of the definition of Pair smartmatching to abstract out boolean method calls as a form of data 16:45
Matt-W mtimes aren't a boolean thing though
TimToady and hence, junctionable
16:45 rfordinal joined 16:46 rfordinal left
TimToady ah yes, :m probably doesn't make much sense then 16:46
since it would pretty much always be true
Matt-W unless it happened to be modified exactly on the epoch 16:47
TimToady I'm confusing it with :M :)
which doesn't make much sense either
so ignore me, and make it .mtime
Matt-W heh
16:48 justatheory_ joined
Matt-W so we're missing a few things then I think 16:48
TimToady some mornings I just can't guzzle coffee fast enough to get smart
Matt-W it's okay, I'm going out soon so I'll stop bugging you about it 16:49
what we don't seem to have is the IO('myfile') bit
so I think this is going to take a bit more structural work 16:50
TimToady well, the S32 folks have only been thinking of it as the parent package, but I'd like to move it more in the direction that ingy first proposed it
16:50 alc left
TimToady where IO is an abstraction of potential IO 16:51
but opens lazily on demand and with a mode appropriate to its usage
or it the case of a stat, it might never open at all 16:52
or maybe it opens it to guarantee consistent fstat semantics instead
Matt-W aah 16:53
TimToady in any case, someday I'd like to have a file copy look like IO($in) ==> IO($out)
16:53 ruoso left
PerlJam TimToady++ 16:55
TimToady ingy++
the P5 version of IO tries to do a little too much, probably, but I like the basic abstraction idea
PerlJam me too
TimToady every now and then I take a pass through IO.pod and simplify. Maybe I'm overdue for another pass :) 16:56
Matt-W maybe :)
I'd just like some framework I can implement things in :)
TimToady or maybe I should get ingy to simplify it :) 16:57

pmichaud Tene: ouch.
(Good afternoon, #perl6)
Tene pmichaud: I got my toolkit wrapper working, but to call the toolkit_init function, I needed access to the unmodified argv. 17:11
to pass to NCI::Util's call_toolkit_init
pmichaud I don't understand "unmodified argv"
Tene okay, 'sec 17:12
src/builtins/guts.pir +390
!UNIT_START
it has .param pmc args, which gets modified, and then stuffed into @*ARGS 17:13
I needed access to args *before* it was modified.
PerlJam rakudo: my $x = 0; $x++; $x.++; 17:14
p6eval rakudo d8d064: OUTPUT«Statement not terminated properly at line 2, near ".++;"␤in Main (src/gen_setting.pm:3340)␤»
Tene my workaround patch to demonstrate it was to set_hll_global '$REALARGV', args before modifying it.
pmichaud I don't understand what part of @ARGS isn't working for you. the args list isn't significantly modified. 17:15
only the first element (the script name) is removed.
Tene I'm not sure either. The NCI argv stuff is a little mysterious to me right now. 17:18
Hmm, maybe you're right... 17:20
ah, it might have been the shifting off $PROGRAM_NAME 17:21
maybe if I pass that too...

I was translating from PIR.
payload what is this? ive read GTK+ today somewhere? 17:49
Tene It's elementary, one of the Enlightenment libraries. 17:50
payload ah cool
Tene Not particularly stable or convenient. GTK might be a more-popular choice.

moritz_ pmichaud: so it should be is_deeply {%h.invert}, {b => 'a', d => 'c'}, right?
pmichaud moritz_: that might work 20:36
I was thinking to test the sorted list
%h.invert.sort
moritz_ that's what the later tests do
pmichaud: I don't care either way - should I, or will you correct it?
pmichaud well, it's failing in rakudo with Parrot trunk, so it needs fixing. 20:37
moritz_ ok, I'll update, test and commit
pmichaud I'm fine with the is_deeply approach, I think.
colomon pmichaud: yup, parens work. Thanks! (colon is deeply surprising to me...)

moritz_ it is, but only on the inside
"FOO" ~~ m/:i foo/
colomon is putting it after m/foo/:i legal syntax? STD.pm let it by... 20:54
moritz_ no 20:55
TimToady it would try to apply the :i to whatever operator preceded the m//

colomon ah.
Thanks!

PerlJam interesting
TimToady is arguably a bug
[particle] my dog $rx; $rx ~~ Dog :i; 20:56
TimToady it doesn't check the top of the term stack to see if it's really an operator
[particle] anyway, seems a bug to me, whitespace wanted after the closing delimiter on a regex, at the least 20:57
