lizmat seems to draw a blank 11:06
given a native type "num", how do I get the non-native equivalent for that (aka Num) ?
no name trickery, please
nine m: say num.^mro[1] 11:07
camelia (Num)
lizmat ah, duh! 11:08
nine++
nine m: use nqp; say nqp::hllboxtype_n() 11:11
camelia (Num)
nine seems safer 11:12
lizmat yeah, but needed it to be more general
not just for num, but also for int / str
trying to fix the "my Int $x = NaN" compile time error in RakuAST
nine Well there are also hllboxtype_i and hllboxtype_s :) 11:13
lizmat m: subset MyInt; dd MyInt.^mro # this feels LTA 11:55
camelia No such method 'mro' for invocant of type 'Perl6::Metamodel::SubsetHOW'
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
12:00 reportable6 left 12:01 reportable6 joined
nine But it makes sense since the subset type itself doesn't have any ancestors. 12:08
lizmat not even Mu ? 12:09
nine Well it delegates type checks and find_method to its refinee 12:10
lizmat so shouldn't a mro method do that ? 12:12

lizmat m: subset A; dd (A,int).are
camelia No such method 'mro' for invocant of type 'Perl6::Metamodel::SubsetHOW'
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
nine That depends on whether you want to define ^mro as a required method for all meta types. 12:14
lizmat m: subset A; dd (True,False).are 12:15
camelia Bool
lizmat m: subset A; dd (True,Same).are
camelia Int
lizmat seems to work for enums already, what else do we have?

Streamline X::Syntax::Number::LiteralType a bit

  - add some sensible defaults
  - format the text at run-time
rakudo/main: 7e78588391 | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | src/Perl6/Metamodel/SubsetHOW.nqp
Give subsets their .^mro method

Mostly because we expect the .are method to be able to be run on any selection of types, including subtypes.
   subset A of Int;
   subset B of A;
   dd B.^mro; # (B, A, Int, Cool, Any, Mu)		 12:37
roast: e232b04437 | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | S12-subset/type-subset.t
Fix test, because in RakuAST this is a compile time error

And in legacy grammar, this is a runtime error when it *could* (and probably *should*) have been a compile time error. Marked as todo for now.		 12:56
rakudo/main: 4f6da10a6e | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | src/Raku/ast/variable-declaration.rakumod
RakuAST: add type check in simple variable declarations

If the initializer is a literal, then check with the variable type and issue a sorry if they do not match.
rakudo/main: 6e20165a1f | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | src/core.c/Exception.pm6
Don't mangle the type name too much

tbrowder__ hi, trying to create a hash of keys whose values are arrays (NOT lists): 13:50
m: my %h = { a = [1,2]}; say %h<a>.WHAT 13:52
camelia ===SORRY!=== Error while compiling <tmp>
Preceding context expects a term, but found infix = instead.
Did you make a mistake in Pod syntax?
at <tmp>:1
------> my %h = { a =⏏ [1,2]}; say %h<a>.WHAT
tbrowder__ m: my %h = {a => [1,2]}; say %h<a>.WHAT 13:53
camelia Potential difficulties:
Useless use of hash composer on right side of hash assignment; did you mean := instead?
at <tmp>:1
------> my %h = {a => [1,2]}⏏; say %h<a>.WHAT
(Array)
tbrowder__ why do i need the ':=' binding operator? 13:55
that may be the root of a lot of problems i've had with hashes lately 13:56
nine You don't:
m: my %h = a => [1, 2]; dd %h
camelia Hash %h = {:a($[1, 2])}
vrurg tbrowder__: Basically, internally, a hash is created only to be used as a producer of iterator of pairs to initialize the hash on LHS. The compiler just warns you about the very ineffective way of doing something. 13:59
tbrowder__ m: my %h = a => [1,2]; say %h<a>.WHAT 14:00
camelia (Array)
tbrowder__ ok, got it. the {} confused the issue, THANKS
m: my %h := { a => [1,2]}; say %h<a>.WHAT 14:02
camelia (Array)
tbrowder__ nine, vrurg thanks 14:03

Separate =input/=output from =code

  - introduces the Pod::Block::Input and Pod::Block::Output classes,
   subclasses of Pod::Block::Code (so that current renderers will
   still be able to see them as Pod::Block::Code blocks).
  - adapt the legacy grammar to create these new classes for =input
   and =output pod
  - adapt RakuAST legacy podification also accordingly
This will now allow pod renderers to render =input and =output pod differently from =code pod.		 18:39
[Coke] Nice - we had adopted :lang<output> as a way to get some kind of classification in the raku docs, we should consider updating. 19:58
vrurg BTW, speaking of the docs. Our docs say that if there are extra docs they're to be put under doc/. But the directory is not installed with the distribution, thus these are not available for rakudoc. Isn't it something overlooked in distribution design? 20:05
And either way, what would be the approach of keeping documentation separate from modules? 20:07
