aloha OK. I'll deliver the message.

dalek : f93668f | kjs++ | / (4 files):
fix string test, though there are some issues that need to be resolved.
 10:30
10:46 tadzik joined 10:48 JimmyZ joined
dalek : 0ad2ba3 | kjs++ | / (4 files):
fix types of arrays.
 11:28
11:36 birdwindupbird joined
dalek : 18c0879 | kjs++ | / (3 files):
refactoring, cleanup and make too long lines shorter.
 11:42
kjs make 11:52
woops
11:53 whiteknight joined
JimmyZ :) 11:54
whiteknight good morning, #parrot 11:57
11:59 PacoAir joined
kjs morning whiteknight 11:59
JimmyZ good morning whiteknight
whiteknight hello kjs
and hello JimmyZ
12:02 brrt joined 12:04 lucian joined
dalek : 35116f5 | kjs++ | src/ (5 files):
dont' do offsets in the front-end, but delay till the end. Clean up parser and implement offsets for struct members in the back-end.
 12:10
: 394b64e | kjs++ | src/ (2 files):
better error messages.
 12:25
12:46 brrt joined
dalek : 784c700 | kjs++ | src/semcheck.c:
80 column width is too tight. conform to 100columns.
 12:58
: 379e420 | kjs++ | t/structparam.m1:
demonstrate passing a struct by reference to a function, changing its members.
JimmyZ oh, kjs++ # structparam.m1 13:07
kjs JimmyZ: :-) it doesnt work with nested structs though
JimmyZ kjs: still a good step 13:08
kjs yeah, but it's becoming so complex...
JimmyZ kjs: aye. 13:09
13:10 Psyche^ joined
JimmyZ src/*.h is also complex 13:10
kjs header files?
JimmyZ kjs: yeah, the struct part
kjs which ones?
JimmyZ decl.h, ast.h and symtab.h 13:12
kjs yes, I need to document which has what function
symtab is for symbols, instances of types
decl. is for type definitions
like int, string and user-defind types 13:13
JimmyZ: maybe it's better to start over? :-) 13:17
JimmyZ kjs: start over? I can't follow you ;)
kjs start with a simpler overlay on M0 13:18
JimmyZ doesn't know about it. 13:19
kjs ok. well nested structs are definitely broken. 13:20
I'll be travelling this week, so no M1 development this week
JimmyZ kjs: Have a good trip 13:22
kjs thanks :-)
JimmyZ ;)
dalek : 1f04048 | kjs++ | / (2 files):
make test file a bit more itneresting.
 13:23
: 0d6d393 | kjs++ | t/structparam.m1:
wrong comment marker.
 13:27
13:29 kid51 joined 13:35 brrt left
dalek : e45b86d | kjs++ | src/gencode.c:
probably found the culprit for nested array blow-ups. Note to self.
 13:46
kjs JimmyZ: I suspect the issues with structs can be fixed, but it will take a good long hacking session to fix it.
Just found the probable cause.
dalek rrot/whiteknight/io_cleanup1: c189cb2 | Whiteknight++ | src/io/filehandle.c:
document one more function in filehandle.c
 13:56
rrot/whiteknight/io_cleanup1: e5f2b26 | Whiteknight++ | src/io/ (2 files):
Add function-level documentation and a few cleanups to src/io/socket.c
rrot/whiteknight/io_cleanup1: 8ddbb90 | Whiteknight++ | src/io/ (2 files):
Add function-level documentation, TODO notes and some cleanups to src/io/stringhandle.c. Also, fix some docs in src/io/filehandle.c
rrot/whiteknight/io_cleanup1: 8c6639d | Whiteknight++ | src/io/api.c:
Fix some documentation typos
rrot/whiteknight/io_cleanup1: 5d38b54 | Whiteknight++ | src/io/ (4 files):
Function-level documentation and some cleanups for src/io/pipe.c

dukeleto ~~ 14:21
whiteknight hello dukeleto 14:23
dukeleto whiteknight: how goes it? 14:24
whiteknight dukeleto: goes well enough. Still plodding along with my IO branch. Working in the garden today too 14:25
dukeleto whiteknight: indeed! I just put in a 4ft mulch path yesterday and I still have 25 fruit trees to plant...
whiteknight fruit trees? I'm jealous. What varieties? 14:26
dukeleto whiteknight: cherries, apples, pears mostly, with a few nectarines and some possibly dead plums 14:27
whiteknight: somebody was getting rid of them all so I snatched them all up
Craigslist is a beautiful thing, occasionally :) 14:28
whiteknight heh. We have a Cherry tree that I was really excited about when we bought the place. However it turns out to be an ornamental variety
dukeleto whiteknight: nectarines are fickle mistresses in the pacific NW, but I am willing to try them out
whiteknight flowers, no fruit
dukeleto whiteknight: well, cherries trees like buddies to help pollinate, so putting a fruiting one near that is probably a good idea. 14:29
dukeleto has become a fruit tree expert recently :)
whiteknight nice. I really want more fruit trees, but my wife is luke warm on the idea 14:30
cleanup and bees and all
moritz bees usually don't make trouble (at least the European varieties)
wasps can be annoying though 14:31
whiteknight no, I like bees a lot. My wife gets nervous with my son running around
I was thinking, breifly, about putting in a hive somewhere
moritz you should do so only after the first bee bite
or s/bite/sting/ # whatever
just to see if your son has an allergy 14:32
dukeleto whiteknight: you can very easily make a Mason bee habitat like this to greatly increase pollination : habitatsbybill.com/Mason_Bee.html 14:33
whiteknight: mason bees don't make honey, so they pollinate 3x more evidently and ... no stingers!
whiteknight: jashwanth seems to be making some progress on parrot-lapack, which is nice 14:34
whiteknight: i think in the future, we need to make sure students understand the very basics of git and compiling code before gsoc starts 14:35
whiteknight dukeleto: yes, I am encouraged by his recent progress 14:36
dukeleto whiteknight: maybe we can provide a screencast which goes over the very basics, then we give them some kind of "quiz" to make sure they watched it and understood
whiteknight And in the future, I think we absolutely MUST require that students be able to download, build and test parrot, and be able to make an example commit to github
dukeleto whiteknight: i am not looking to disqualify students as much as making sure students are prepared to be successful
whiteknight: yes
whiteknight yes, the coding period is not the time to be learning these basics 14:37
dukeleto whiteknight: yeah, the community bonding period should be for that, but sometimes that is too late
whiteknight yes 14:38
Obviously schedules conflict with the end of classes and finals, but those things still need to be demonstrated much earlier
and considering that a simple Parrot build shouldn't take more than an hour front to back, that's not too much time
dukeleto whiteknight: i know that etherboot does IRC interviews where they ask basic stuff like this to make sure students have this stuff covered 14:40
whiteknight The problem is, we don't want to be too restrictive. We received brrt++'s proposal relatively late, and he is off like a rocket 14:41
moritz but otoh brrt hung around here for quite a while, discussing potential projects 14:45
whiteknight True, but jashwanth was one of the first people we talked too, very early in the proposal period 14:47
and his school schedule has put him significantly behind
not to mention several problems with being able to build and test his prerequisites 14:49
