masak Perl 6 grammars are already very nice to work with 08:39
there's pain avoided in every efficient line of code, compared to writing one's own lexer/AST generator 08:40
with the advent of {*}, it will be twice as wonderful
moritz_ but it would be nice if some of the errors produced nicer messages
masak indeed. if you have time to experiment, I can paste you the latest version of the module 08:41
08:41 Gruber is now known as Grrrr
moritz_ or just use a branch in git 08:41
whatever you prefer ;)
masak branch-in-git is clearly the Right Thing 08:42
I'll try :)
moritz_ btw I've got an email from someone in Belarus asking for permission to translate my blog posts to Russian ;)
masak might be the same person whose Russian Perl 6 blog I subscribe to 08:44
moritz_ Andrew Shitov 08:46

moritz_ how do I fetch remote branches with git? 09:05
09:05 bacek left
masak moritz_: git checkout new-html-template 09:06
(I think)
no, that will probably not work... hold on 09:07
moritz_ error: pathspec 'new-html-template' did not match any file(s) known to git.
and git-branch doesn't show that branch
masak moritz_: try git checkout -b new-html-template
you might need to `git pull` before
or maybe even `git pull origin new-html-template` 09:08
I dunno
moritz_ error: Entry 'p6w/t/html-template.t' would be overwritten by merge. Cannot merge. 09:09
masak moritz_: you working on an unclean tree again? :)
moritz_ dunno
masak time to test that `git clean` you mentioned yesterday, methinks
`git status` answers questions about the state of files 09:10
09:10 larsen_ left
masak seems to me a simple `rm -r p6w/t` would solve your current problem, however 09:10
moritz_ ok, after a 'git reset ...' I could pull
masak ah.
git embraces TMTOWTDI, for sure 09:11
moritz_ but after 'git pull origin new-html-template' I still don't see a new-html-template branch
masak does `git checkout new-html-template` do anything useful? 09:12
moritz_ same as before
masak hm :/
what about if you clone the new branch directly?
moritz_ in a new repository? 09:13
masak yes 09:14
not optimal, but until we grok git :P
moritz_ I'll ask in #git
09:15 wknight8111 joined
masak good idea. 09:15
IRC++
09:20 elmex joined
moritz_ omg, #git is even larger than #perl6 09:22
(but very helpful)
masak just as #perl6 :) 09:23
moritz_ ;)
09:26 jferrero joined
masak moritz_: actually, I would guess that the bigger number of inhabitants in #git compared to #perl6 is commensurate with the number of users of the respective softwares -- or if not, probably to folks-on-#perl6's advantage 09:29
09:32 dr_df0 joined, dr_df0 left
moritz_ digests the sentence 09:37
probably, yes ;)
and we have more bots ;) 09:38
masak I, for one, welcome our new git-using, Perl 6-driven, IRC-dewlling overlords 09:41
moritz_ ;) 09:42
if I manage to understand git at some point, I will too 09:43
have you thought about a simple test harness already?
masak moritz_: besides Test.pm? no. 09:44
moritz_ if prove can be made to run a different program than perl, that's all we need 09:45
masak there's prove6 in the Pugs repo
...perhaps indication that prove can't be made to run a different program 09:46

moritz_ prove6 is a bit pugs specific
but certainly a good place to start stealing from ;)
masak :) 09:48

moritz_ masak: #58372 is actually "autovivification doesn't work" or something along these lines 14:04
14:04 cggoebel joined 14:06 kanru left
masak moritz_: you're right. 14:08
feel free to add that
14:08 dr_df0 left
masak or even change the bug title 14:08
14:09 dr_df0 joined
moritz_ otoh I don't know if $/ is allowed to autovivify, since it might be immutable (unless the regex was matched with 'is rw') 14:09
masak moritz_: btw, are you sure that long hashing chains autovivify? 14:10
moritz_ I'll just reply to the ticket
in perl 5 $h{a}{b} autovivifies $h{a}
it doesn't make sense to autovivify on the last indexing level, since you can always just assign to it 14:11
oh wait, I think in Perl 6 only write accesses autoviv
14:12 meteorjay left
moritz_ so 'defined $/<a><b>' shouldn't, but '%h<a><b> = $stuff' should 14:12
masak moritz_: ISTR that too
what it shouldn't do is halt the program
hence the current title of the bug
moritz_ agreed
14:12 iblechbot left
moritz_ is quite suprised, because he's seen some autovivification code in actions.pm 14:13
perhaps one of the features that weren't tested, and thus bitrotted 14:14
14:14 rindolf joined, _ggoebel_ left
masak moritz_: but actions.pm is nqp, innit? 14:16
moritz_ masak: I mean PAST initialization code which handles autovivification 14:17
just search for :vivibase 14:18
masak ach so
yes, I also recall previous discussions about it 14:19

masak the implementor in me says "bah -- slices are sugar. they're nice, but you can work around not having them" 14:59
that said, they would sure be nice to have
moritz_ the implementor in me has looked at the code generation for slices, and sees that it might be a PCT thing
but I'm not quite sure 15:00
dr_df0 what's PCT?
moritz_ Parrot Compiler Tools
masak what does it mean, in this case, that it might be a PCT thing? 15:01
15:01 ggoebel left
moritz_ dr_df0: the IRC logs at irclog.perlgeek.de/perl6/today automatically anotate some abbreviations with their meaning (just FYI, it's fine to ask here also) 15:01
lambdabot Title: IRC log for #perl6, 2008-08-26
moritz_ masak: method postcircumfix looks like that to me (but not sure) 15:02
masak oki
moritz_ it just generates a a PAST::Var node 15:04
from the semilist inside the subscript
but I don't find the place where that is actually turned into a hash or array lookup 15:05
the term postcircumfix only appears actions.pm, grammar.pg and the PIR files that are generated from those two 15:06
moritz_ wonders if it should be done in method variable 15:08
15:09 alester left
masak I wouldn't know. 15:09
moritz_ probably not, the only postcircumfix stuff it handles is $<foo> (ie acceess to $/)

bennymack-work this is probably a silly question but "Int"s do not get automatically converted to "Num"s? 16:26
moritz_ they should, I think
bennymack-work I had a sub that takes a Num but I sent it a 3 and it died. Change the prototype to Int and it worked 16:27
moritz_ that's a bug in rakudo

moritz_ in case it's not clear, I didn't limit my examples to stuff that works at the moment ;/ 17:20
bennymack-work ok. but there's no way to make this particular example work? 17:21
moritz_ I guess it complains about the inherited attribute 17:22
so by removing the colour from the initialization at least the rest should work
bennymack-work ok, yes that does work. 17:23
I also had to comment out the "method area" in Shape otherwise I get this: Missing '}' at line 4, near "... } #"

TimToady suspects moritz_ is correct on both points 22:33
Lichtkind: I think :r would be pretty useless if it didn't work on literals 22:35
Lichtkind TimToady: true but i ask because all the examples in spec where with var 22:36
TimToady it's a little odd that it means that the methods are defined in Str 22:37
assuming they are true methods, which is the latest thinking
or maybe they live in Any and coerce to Str 22:38
moritz_ it seems weird to have a method with the name of pair
TimToady it does kinda reserve a little namespace for such methods
moritz_ how would you define such a thing? method postfix:':r' { ... } ? 22:39
TimToady which we have also made use of with .:delete and whatever .:exists ends up being called
moritz_ is that a trigil? ;-) 22:40
22:40 explorer__ joined
TimToady we could do worse than the postfix declaration 22:41
originally I was thinking just method :r, but making trait notation a variant of pair notation mades it a problem
moritz_ but do we really need a grammatical construct for every file test operator? 22:42
is $fn ~~ :r such a bad huffman coding, as compared to $fn.:r?
TimToady yeah, and I'm not sure that $file:r is a good construct 22:43
originally we had all the :r things interpreted by another method
well, I don't make decisions when I've just woken up and been DDOS'd :) 22:44
