S03? 00:19
purl rumour has it S03 is the operators spec or dev.perl.org/perl6/doc/design/syn/S03.html
Whiteknight get_global returns a "symbol" from a namespace. can the "symbol" be both a function and a global variable? 00:24
chromatic It'll be a PMC.
Whiteknight right, but can it get both functions AND global variables, or only functions? 00:25
pmichaud functions are global variables. :-)
Whiteknight PDD21 just says "symbol", which I find to be ambiguous
pmichaud a symbol simply binds a name to an object
that object can be an integer, a list, a function, a class, or whatever. 00:26
(in the case of Parrot, our "objects" are PMCs)
Whiteknight ok, that's what I thought. I figured it would be very general

bacek some not-yet-implemented magick?
ok :)

moritz DietCoke: I just found out that dalek reported it here correctly, but rakudo_svn in #perl6 killed it. Bot::BasicBot has some problems with it as well - so nobody here (except me ;) is to blame 13:41
bacek pmichaud, #54822 will help little bit :) 13:42
pmichaud arggggh! List.pir has *two* sorts in it!
bacek pmichaud, what??? 13:43
purl hmmm... pmichaud, is there an NQP test suitable for profiling?
pmichaud I'm working on #54822 now, which is what is causing me to notice all of these things. :-)
I'll apply #54822, then clean everything up.
masak pmichaud++
bacek pmichaud, there is 2 sorts in my version: method and operator. 13:44
is it wrong?
pmichaud oh, okay.
moritz sub, not operator, is it?
pmichaud the method sort needs to have an RT ticket so that we can get rid of the FPA stuff. 13:45
bacek moritz, yes (if I understand question correctly)
moritz btw current rakudo fails t/spec/S29-array/kv
pmichaud yes, I noticed that. Haven't gotten around to it. Oddly, spectest_regression reports "All tests successful"
moritz pmichaud: maybe this is related to fudge (not?) changing the return value? 13:46
bacek moritz, which test failed???
moritz bacek: t/spec/S29-array/kv.t
it says error:imcc:syntax error, unexpected '\\n' in file 'EVAL_12' line 277
bacek moritz, there is no fudgin in this test... 13:47
moritz but then continues as normal
bacek: right, I just saw that
bacek moritz, it happens for few days already...
pmichaud anyway, we definitely shouldn't be getting the imcc syntax error 13:48
so I'll put it on my list of things to fix today.
moritz when I compile the test to pir and try to run that with parrot I get the same error - and then it doesn't resume execution 13:49

pmichaud, it passing S29-str/substr.t 13:58
moritz negative indxes are different in Perl 6 than in Perl 5
bacek except lvalue assignment...
moritz you need @array[*-1] if you want to access the last item
bacek ok 9 - from beginning, with negative length 13:59
ok 10 - in middle, with negative length
ok 11 - negative length - gives empty string
pmichaud moritz: this is for substr()
moritz oh, /me is confused

pmichaud I don't know if substr requires *-1
moritz don't think so, also it would be consistent

jonathan would be happy if someone more familiar with merging stuff would put all the latest trunk work into the mutables branch. 14:17
14:17 cjfields joined
pmichaud I suspect it might be easier to merge the mutables branch into trunk when it works. 14:17
jonathan Ok, whatever. :-) 14:18
jonathan doesn't want it to be too painful. :-)
I won't get to look at it again until I'm at FPW, or on the way there at least.
pmichaud proposal: when you have mutables to the point where you want to try a merge, pass it to me so I can do the merge. This would also give me a good opportunity to review the mutables code. 14:19
bacek jonathan, it will be painful... Merging in svn is really bad...
jonathan Still got talks to finish up, my bag got sent to Munich rather than to my airport yesterday so I've gotta go find another bag, since they've not managed to get it to me today... 14:20
pmichaud if I get a chance to do a merge into the mutables branch I'll do it, though.
but this morning I'm toying with the idea of switching rakudo's grammar to be proto-regex based
so that we can start getting infix_prefix_meta and the like.
jonathan Sure, there's no hurry.
I'm just keen on knowing that if I get a clean set of test results in the Mutables branch, then it's going to be reflected when it's merged into trunk. 14:21
pmichaud I think we'll still have some merging to do, but thus far the patches I'm submitting to trunk shouldn't have a huge impact on mutables. 14:22
14:22 jrockway joined
Infinoid currently it looks like there are no merge conflicts between trunk and mutablerakudo 14:22
pmichaud I think I should hold off on list context until after merge, though.
either that or try to do list context in the branch. but I'm not quite there yet.
jonathan Let's see, when the branch is ready. 14:23

pmichaud that would be awesome. 14:25
jonathan I won't get any time in on it today...still got lots to sort out and I have to leave here about 4am tomorrow to get the bus to the airport.
pmichaud no problem. 14:26
I have plenty to keep me busy at the moment. protoregex implementation may take a couple of days, as will the pge refactor
I'm hoping to avoid a deprecation cycle in PGE but might not be able to do that.
jonathan is gecked that they lost his bag at about one of the most inconvenient times possible.
OK, sounds like you've got plenty on your plate. :-) 14:27
pmichaud okay, time to clean up the List code. 14:32
bacek dies_ok({ my @r; @r.push<hi>; }, 'bar'); 14:34
I don't understand it...
rakudo too. Method 'viviself' not found for invocant of class 'PAST::Op' 14:35
moritz what's the fudge directive to comment out all the rest of a test file? 14:36
pmichaud I don't know that there is one. might just try using an obscenely high skip value.
I think I did that for one of the tests (something like 9999 or 99999)
bacek moritz, 1000 skip ::)
moritz pmichaud: does that comment out lines that aren't tests?
bacek moritz, no
pmichaud I think so, yes. 14:37
"skip" in fudge comments out code as being unparseable.
cjfields pmichaud: is rakudo 'trans' supposed to be implemented? 14:38
pmichaud S29?
purl rumour has it S29 is svn.pugscode.org/pugs/docs/Perl6/Sp...ctions.pod
cjfields transliteration. S05? 14:39
DietCoke (merging in svn is really bad) I disagree, at least for the types of merging we're doing with parrot.
cjfields S05?
pmichaud S05 is dev.perl.org/perl6/doc/design/syn/S05.html
(feeding the bot :-)
no, transliteration isn't implemented yet
I'm guessing that transliteration appears in S05 for historical reasons, though, because ".trans" doesn't appear to have anything to do with regexes 14:40
bacek pmichaud, can you fix '@a=()'. Pleeease :)
cjfields pmichaud: Okay. It looks like trans() is partially implemented in string.pmc 14:41
pmichaud might be able to use that one somewhat.
cjfields so it appears to be 'peaking through' when testing it out 14:42
pmichaud right.
cjfields do you think it would be worth trying to get a partially implemented trans() working for rakudo? 14:43
pmichaud yes.
it shouldn't be too difficult.
might even be a good candidate for a p6 implementation
instead of a pir one

bacek Stupid question... How signature of this 'our Int multi method push ( @array: *@values ) is export' should be in PIR? 14:56
moritz pmichaud: nopaste.snit.ch/13090 # more tests for spectest_regression
particle pmichaud: i think your refactored code could still use some work 14:57
pmichaud particle: example?
particle shouldn't we be using 'get_iter' rather than new 'Iterator'?
pmichaud or reference?
purl hmmm... reference is now stringified
bacek moritz++ # for spectest_regression as usual :)
pmichaud actually, I suspect we should be using .iterator
but only S09 references that at the moment. 14:58
particle either way, we should be asking the aggregate for an iterator of it's chosing
pmichaud well, that's really what new 'Iterator', .... does
particle it calls get_iter on the PREG arg? 14:59
pmichaud it asks the preg arg for an iterator, yes.
particle if so, then it's TIMTOWTDI
pmichaud it doesn't use get_iter to do it, I don't think.
jonathan Please use get_iter, not new 'Iterator' 15:00
particle :)
jonathan Otherwise file handles, ranges, etc, won't work.
particle ok. i can update, since pmichaud is quite busy
pmichaud for now let's use .iterator in preference to get_iter 15:01
jonathan .iterator?
particle needs to be written
pmichaud Hashes have a .iterator on them, so I'm assuming that arrays and lists could do the same.
jonathan Ah, OK.
particle yeah.
pmichaud S09.
DietCoke jonathan: how does how you get the iterator matter?
(at the PIR level, both new Iterator, foo and get_iter foo should do the same thing, neh? 15:02
pmichaud When the hash itself needs an iterator for C<.pairs>,
C<.keys>, C<.values>, or C<.kv>, it calls C<%hash.iterator()> to
start one. In item context, C<.iterator> returns an iterator object.
In list context, it returns a lazy list fed by the iterator. It must
be possible for a hash to be in more than one iterator at a time,
jonathan DietCoke: new 'Iterator' instantiates an Iterator PMC.
pmichaud as long as the iterator state is stored in a lazy list.
bacek wander what [*-1] means...
DietCoke jonathan: and get_iter doesn't instantiate a PMC?
pmichaud bacek: [*-1] is the last element of a list
jonathan DietCoke: get_iter vtable method lets a PMC say what sort of iterator it wants.
moritz '*' is the "whatever star"
jonathan So you aren't tied to the default Parrot Iterator.
bacek pmichaud, S<n>?
moritz so @a[*] means "all elements of a list" 15:03
DietCoke ... ah. it just happens to be that way for the defaults, but not the ones you mentioned, necessary, got it, thanks.
moritz S09 perhaps?
DietCoke "necessarily"
bacek moritz, thanks
jonathan Yes, for built-in PMCs it does the same today.
DietCoke jonathan++ 15:04

particle wilco
i'm rebuilding parrot atm, so you've got 10-15m before it and rakudo are ready for me to hack anyway 15:05
pmichaud is get_iter a vtable method? 15:06
jonathan pmichaud: Yes, and the iter op calls it.
bacek looks like Whatever.pir is just stub...
pmichaud I don't think rakudo implements [*-1] yet.
moritz bacek: I don't think that Whatever has to acutally *do* something, I suspect it's more like a flag that can be used in MMD
jonathan I haven't myself done much with Whatever beyond making it parse and create an instance of Whatever.
Many places need to use it. 15:07
bacek pmichaud, I think so...
jonathan Well, what moritz said. :-)
particle wants to rename t/passing_spec to t/spectest_regression.data or similar 15:08
moritz particle: do it, it's just a small patch 15:09
moritz isn't exactly famous for picking telling names
particle they're not passing spec, anyway
they're passing fudged spec
correct?
NotFound Someone can test my last patch in #54602 on some non linux386? 15:10
moritz NotFound: URL?
NotFound rt.perl.org/rt3/Ticket/Attachment/4...ello.patch
shorten NotFound's url is at xrl.us/bk58x
moritz particle: correct
particle would love a test management system 15:11
specifically something that allows each user to specify a list of test files, and how they should be run (raw, fudged, etc)
as well as standard sets of test files everyone can run 15:12
then i could update (eg. t/.testrc) with the list of tests important to me as i develop feature X
moritz NotFound: it builds, I'm smoking now
pmichaud particle: we already have that.
NotFound moritz: make hello is the thing to test. 15:13
moritz NotFound: do I have to re-run configure?
Hello from your friendly makefile
NotFound No.
pmichaud "specify a list of test files" is the --tests-from-file option to t/harness.
particle pmichaud: we need a little more infrastructure, like makefile targets. ok, i'll work on that 15:14
NotFound Ok, you can also build perl6, just in case,
moritz you can't fudge on a per-file basis yet
NotFound: builds fine, tests atm
pmichaud oh, yes, we don't have fudge on a per-file basis
NotFound moritz: what platform?
particle we certainly *could* fudge per-file
moritz NotFound: Debian GNU/Linux i386
pmichaud that might be cool.
moritz I can implement that (hopefully) 15:15
pmichaud I wasn't thinking of per-file fudging.
particle moritz++ # that would be a huge help
pmichaud so then --fudge needs to become --fudge-all, probably. :-) 15:16
moritz btw it takes about 6 minutes to "run" the full t/spec/ test suite (without t/spec/S29-conversions/ord_and_chr.t which hangs for me)

pmichaud I don't know if we have .pragma fastcall anymore -- I've never used it. 16:07
we no longer push/pop arguments onto the user stack.
(because there is no user stack :-)

NotFound pmichaud: and throwing an exception creates the need to catch it when you are interested just in check presence, or create another way to do the check. 18:58
DietCoke I'll do it.
pmichaud NotFound: exactly. Parrot arrays, hashes, namespace symbols, and other operations all return null when requesting a value that doesn't exist (as opposed to throwing an exception) -- get_attribute should do the same. In fact, PCT currently relies on that behavior. 18:59
NotFound Mmmm... PMCNULL in fact, it isn't?
pmichaud yes, it probably needs to be PMCNULL.
NotFound Is reasonable, because the exception is usually thrown if the returned value is used unecheked. 19:01
So the poblem will always be catched.
pmichaud (it does change where the problem is found, though.)
still, I'd hate to have to put exception handlers around every symbol access. :-| 19:02
NotFound Yeah, but when the exact point is required to be known, the check can be added.
pmichaud correct.
DietCoke pmichaud: is 46669 perhaps distinguishing between an attribute which is defined but has no value vs. one that is undefined? 19:03
(that is, something that wasn't created with setattribute first) 19:04
pmichaud according to the comments and code it looks to me as though it's trying to throw an exception on a null value as opposed to a non-existent attribute name
DietCoke then you win. 19:05

pmichaud at least, that's what the ticket title indicates. 19:05
NotFound Maybe the correct solution will be that default.pmc must not do nothing, each interested pmc must do it his way.
pmichaud default.pmc should do the "parrot standard" thing, and any pmc's that want something different should override 19:06
NotFound The standard thing can be returning PMCNULL.
I don't see set_attr_str in default.pmc :? 19:07
pmichaud maybe it's something that can't be defaulted. 19:08
NotFound In the c file: cant_do_method(interp, pmc, "set_attr_str"); 19:09
pmichaud although get_attr_str is doing some weird stuff w.r.t nci. I have no clue what that's all about.
NotFound pmichaud: that's the problem, there is stuff that is no default.
pmichaud also something odd with multisubs. 19:10
that's not a problem -- there can be things with no default. They'll throw an exception if you try to use them.
(i.e., the default is "throw an exception")
NotFound I mean, default does things that are no default behaviour.
pmichaud oh. yeah, I'm not sure what's up with that. It looks as though it's changing behavior depending on the value retrieved 19:11

NotFound I looked and some doc, and I'm not sure where each type of inheritance is documented or discussed. 19:37
pmichaud but I think perhaps #54520 has been resolved, because it was reported earlier that ".trans" was being invoked on strings. 19:38
(in rakudo)
and that has to be coming via PMC inheritance.
NotFound And looking at the code, is not clear to me that a pmc automatic delegates to his parent.
pmichaud well, since that's really the purpose of "inheritance".... :-) 19:39
NotFound Looks like MRO has not knowledge about PMC parents. 19:41
And the generated vtable entries points to default. 19:42
pmichaud but methods aren't vtabled.
unless you mean the find_method vtable entry
NotFound Looks like nothing is delegated, methods nor vtable. 19:43
In the example used in the ticket, I think is a method that calls an vtable function. 19:44
And the method is not defined in the child pmc. 19:46

NotFound An by the way, include/parrot/intlist.h says in his first line: /* stacks.h 21:15
DietCoke there is a ticket to resolve all the not-quite-the-same internal stacks & lists.
fixed the bad filename ref. 21:16
NotFound How can be LIST_DEBUG defined?

DietCoke you can always specify -D flags to configure.pl 21:18
... I wouldn't expect to every do -DLIST_DEBUG, though.
'ever'
NotFound I'll try.
Tene -DCOKE_DEBUG
NotFound As expected: libparrot.so: undefined reference to `list_dump' 21:21
DietCoke Seems like that would be a likely candidate for wholesale removal, then. 21:27
-DIET_COKE 21:28
NotFound Remove it, or fix it, that is the question.
DietCoke If there's no way to invoke it at the moment except for passing an arg to configure by hand that isn't documented anywhere... 21:30
NotFound I fixed it, but can also delete anyway. 21:32
DietCoke If you're bored, you can provide both patches. =-)
My concern is that if we're not invoking it or testing it anywhere, it's just going to rot again; there's no need to maintain dead code, as you've pointed out. 21:33
NotFound Oh, no, I've done it just to be sure.
dalek r27894 | particle++ | trunk: 21:34
: [rakudo] allow specification of local test list
NotFound intlist_dump is never used, and is the only usage of list_dump, so deletion looks like the prefered way.
dalek : ~ 'make localtest' looks for a file named t/localtest.data
: ~ localtest.data contains a list of test files and directories
: this allows rakudo developers to specify a list of tests they wish to run locally during development of new features, etc.
: 'make localtest' currently assumes the tests should be fudged. this assumption should be removed.

NotFound I was not maintaining, just proving my point ;) 21:35
moritz particle: did you look at my patch for t/harness?
particle: it already allows a to specify if the files should be fudged or not 21:36
particle moritz: no, is it in rt? haven't seen a listmail yet
fab. i'll review and apply now
moritz particle: #54988
21:37 japhb joined
moritz particle: you just have to trade the --fudge for --configfudge in 'make localtest', then only tests marked with \\s+#fudge$ will be fudged 21:38
particle hrmm 21:39
i think i'll keep it as --fudge
and make the default behavior that it only fudges files marked with #fudge in any *.data file
why fudge tests if we don't have to? 21:40
what do you think?
purl I think particle should try flossing more often!

moritz particle: but maybe it might be even better if I check for #pure isntead?
particle moritz: the ultimate goal is for all tests to pass pure
we may not have reached a reasonable point where we should make that the default, though
moritz particle: yes, but for that goal we don't need fudging at all
so fudging should be the default? 21:44
cotto-work particle, it looks like next week could work
pmichaud until it makes sense to run spectest without fudging, then fudging should be the default.
particle moritz: that's a question i'm posing. should fudging be default for the near future?
ok, there we go.
cotto-work wait, I lied

particle cotto-work: ok. i'm generally available every afternoon
