Set by sorear on 4 February 2011.
jnthn Guess I can read "within its scope" both ways... :) 00:00
masak here's the mental model I had of things. 00:01
jnthn masak: But see the langauge on a proto's "managed set" later on in S06.
masak yeah, I'm reading it now. 00:02
I see 'proto' and 'only' as the same shape of thing. 00:03
'multi' is nowadays a kind of subordinate to 'proto'.
so each time you do 'proto' or 'only', you define a new thing, hiding the old thing. 00:04
jnthn right, writing only or proto would always give you one of those
masak in explaining this, I think I see now why newbee's sub should become a multi :)
00:04 perimosocordiae left
masak (because there's a proto in the setting, so 'only' isn't the default for infix:<+>) 00:05
jnthn I'm mostly curious about whether a proto means that all the places that can see it default to multi for that name.
masak right. I think it might.
in which case I agree fully.
jnthn Yeah, that's how I'd understood it so far.
masak that's actually quite nice.
jnthn Yeah, I think so.
masak because it'd be what people expect.
basically they can use multis without having to understand protos and multis :) 00:06

mdrc hello, where to get the sea-cow grammar? 00:12
Tene mdrc: eh?
mdrc the light variety of perl
00:13 risou left
mdrc minus lazy classes etc. 00:13
Tene I've never heard of that, and I'm having trouble finding anything about it on google.
mdrc me to 00:14
Tene can you give me a link?
00:14 Moukeddar joined
mdrc only by the name. i don't know if the version is publically available 00:14
Tene Where did you hear about this? Can you tell me more about it? 00:15
mdrc might have been a dream. at least the probability is there 00:16
Tene Probably a dream. :)
What was it in your dream, then? I'm curious now.
mdrc some stripped version but without the strict parentheses
Tene Or, could be that you've misremembered the name, and it's a real thing just under a different name.
mdrc actually i think the bug from perl6 reminded me 00:17
just visited
masak we're glad you're here :) 00:18
mdrc thanks :)
masak I'm almost sorry there isn't a sea-cow grammar outside of your dreams... 00:19
mdrc might have been a grep script
i don't know
Tene mdrc: What would that have been? For example, if I *had* answered with "Here you go, it's right here: <link>", what would you have expected to find at the link?
mdrc some variety of the grammar, generated by a stream of feature strings filtered by the sea-cow 00:20
like a preset compilation 00:23
masak mdrc: I think you came here to be properly hugged.
masak hugs mdrc
there you go. 00:24
mdrc actually thanks , i was looking for an executable object
masak you're welcome.
in the postmodern era, I guess we're all executable objects. 00:25
00:25 Moukeddar left
mdrc seems to be available, only with whole feature set, from rakudo 00:25
masak yeah.
both. 00:26
mdrc haven't actually seen a list of extern symbols for the standard version. would be nice with something simple. 00:27
masak mdrc: most of it can be found in the spec, but some parts are slushy. 00:28
mdrc the spec seems fine, i mean, how many extern libraries are used? 00:29
masak that's dependent on the implementation, I guess. 00:31
there are some implementations for which the question doesn't make much sense.
mdrc of course. probably just the stdio interface 00:32

newbee sorry i had to go out but i read your response, masak. So, whan can i do to avoid this "double" definition of + ? 01:14
s/whan/what/
or is that i just can't use + inside a definition of an overroded + operator? 01:15
oh, never mind
i got it, i should replace sub by multi :) 01:16
thanks! :D

tadzik oh, moritz. I was thinking about the gsoc week #1 today, and I still have no clue about how the tests for Pod classes should look like. How about me writing the tests for the Pod parser itself? They will be needed in a later stage anyway, have no specific date (besides "make sure the test suite covers the whole spec" in the week nth), and will probably reveal some stupid things about the Pod nodes too, 09:41
what do you think?
For I don't have any good idea for testing the classes themselves, and it's a waste of effort to implement tests for containers just for the sake of writing tests

tadzik (: 11:55
I imagine lolhorses as horses, which instead of "nihihihihi" do "ololololol!"
masak: could you backlog and tell me what you think about the question I asked moritz? 11:58
12:03 donri joined
masak tadzik: the one about tests? 12:12
could it be that the question "what tests should I write?" lacks a bit of context? 12:14
after all, you don't write tests just for writing tests. you write tests for making sure the code you're about to write does what you wanted. 12:15
tadzik masak: aye
masak so... what code do you want to write, and what should it do? :)
tadzik yes. And a code I am to write is a container. Any test for that is basically testing if the classes and their attributes work 12:16
the code I'm writing are the classes representing a Pod document, and abstract syntax tree
masak it could be useful to see if the Pod classes have been populated correctly.
i.e. given this or that Pod input, the Pod nodes come out right. 12:17
the way I see it, you have an I/O filter. perfect for testing in all sorts of ways.
the power of testing filters is what ingy exploits in search.cpan.org/~ingy/Test-Base-0.6...st/Base.pm 12:18
tadzik: but I'm somewhat evading your question. 12:23
tadzik: your problem is that the classes you're about to write are mostly behaviour-less shells, so there's nothing interesting to test.
so, playing Devil's advocate for a while, I ask: why are you writing those classes in the first place? :) 12:24
tadzik so, playing the dumb for a while I answer: because that's what in my proposal, and everyone expects the "write tests" statement after every "write code" :) 12:26
masak :P 12:27
tadzik so, instead of reporting "tests were not needed", I'm planning to report "tests were not needed, but I wrote the spectests instead, they helped too, and they will be needed anyway" 12:28
masak no, I meant, do you expect these classes to be useful in some context, besides testing that their attributes work correctly?
because it's those classes that would be useful. those that use the classes in the context they were intended to. 12:29
tadzik brb, nom 12:30
okay I'm back there 12:48
12:48 hudnix joined 12:49 newbee joined
tadzik masak: the classes are only useful for representing the actual pod document. If it wasn't for convenience, they could be arrays or hashes. Testing them only makes sense if you compare the pod document to the representation you get from it. At the moment we have no way to transform the pod document into its representation, so the Pod classes are only a bunch of sad pandas in the zoo, which everyone can look 12:50
at and nothing more. Now, I could write tests for the fictional parser, so once it's here (or partly here), the tests will slowly start to work
so, TDD :)
so no tests for Pod classes, but rather tests for what Pod classes will be used for 12:51
but they won't be testing anything right now, at the moment of deliverance 12:52
newbee rakudo: class test { has $.x = 0 where {(0..9)} }
masak let's say you decided to test a serializer that used the Pod classes. then the attributes in the Pod classes would *have* to work as intended, and you wouldn't have to write the boring tests.

p6eval rakudo 705435: OUTPUT«===SORRY!===␤Unable to parse blockoid, couldn't find final '}' at line 22␤»

newbee oh well... i can use subsets in the meantime. 12:55
rakudo: subset Digit of Int where (0..9); class test { has Digit $.x = 0 } 12:57
p6eval rakudo 705435: ( no output )

rakudo: subset Even of Int where { $_ %% 2 }; class A { has Even $.e }; say A.new(:e(5)).e
p6eval rakudo 705435: OUTPUT«5␤»
masak rakudo: subset Even of Int where { $_ %% 2 }; class A { has Even $.e }; say A.new(:e("OH NOES")).e 12:58
p6eval rakudo 705435: OUTPUT«OH NOES␤»
masak myself, I'm consciously avoiding attribute typing right now, because I know how hard my apps would break when it came online if I used them everwhere :P
newbee subset Digit of Int where (0..9); class test { has Digit $.x is rw = 0 } 12:59
tadzik masak: so, did we get to any conclusion?
jnthn masak: nom will almost certainly have it.
masak: You've chosen wisely ;)
newbee i think that this syntax is too complicated, should be subset Digit of Int where (0..9); class test { has Digit $.x = 0 is rw }
13:00 benabik left, benabik joined, benabik left
jnthn newbee: But the 0 isn't rw. The attribute is. 13:00
newbee has Digit $.x is rw = 0 v/s has Digit $.x = 0 is rw
ahmmm i see 13:01
jnthn I find "has Digit $.x is rw = 0" clearer, but maybe that's just me. :)
newbee i read "is rw = 0" like saying "rw is false" 13:02
i know that perl6 does not work like that but reading it fast sounds like that

You can't define inheritance hierarchy until you can call a trait, which needs multi-dispatch. But you can't do multi-dispatch until you have an inheritance hierarchy in place. :) 17:43
moritz so, time for our circularity chainsaw, which can define inheritance without traits 17:44

sorear: When your compilation model is Perl 6 in ==> PIR out, it's kinda easier. ;) 18:06
When it's Perl 6 in ==(build the world)==> PIR out that uses objects built during compilation, there's some new things to worry about. :)
sorear niecza solves that problem by building the world in compilerspace 18:07
though this is likely to become a problem when I implement trait_mod
jnthn Yes.
sorear How do you plan to handle separate compilation + BEGIN interaction in ctmo? 18:08
jnthn And all the BEGIN fun in general, I guess.
18:08 mj41 left
jnthn The only thing a BEGIN block can reach is either symbols in the dynamic scope or symbols in the current understanding of GLOBAL 18:09
sorear that's the #1 blocker for BEGIN in Niecza; I can't afford to lose separate compilation when it takes 20 seconds just to build a setting 1/6 the size of Rakudo's
jnthn (Note, not using Parrot namespaces any more, so not tied to any single view of what is GLOBAL).
I had to fix that so NQP could actually keep on bootstrapping itself and I could statically resolve symbols
Was getting into situations where it was linking symbols against the compiler, not the the ones beloning to the thing being compiled. Then you ran the compiled output and it was like "oh noes, where are my symbols" :) 18:10
That took days to untangle. :/ 18:11
sorear What would you do for something like use A; my $x; BEGIN { $x = $A::y; $x.[0] = 42 } ?
jnthn If you do that by just compile-n-run it'd probably end up OK, but you're hosed if you do that with --target=pir and then expect $A::y to show up differently when running that. 18:12
It's no different to BEGIN { $A::y.[0] = 42 } 18:13
Potentially you'd screw up the whole separate compilation thing too, but only within the current process. 18:15
18:15 MayDaniel left
jnthn Dunno what we can really do about that, short of a load of extra copying, which'll cause other issues. 18:16
Or trying to track object changes or something
But...it's silly.
Can only go so far to stop people shooting themselves in the foot.
And BEGIN kinda is a shotgun. :) 18:17

heh, I guess 18:19
Have you figured out how to do away with the sc field yet? Adding an extra pointer to P6any just for separate compilation+BEGIN does not amuse me
jnthn Well, it's for bounded serialization too 18:20

sorear Bounded serialization "too"?

what has no option for 24-bit character strings?
imamelia The pack and unpack functions.
n and v are 16-bit, N and V are 32-bit...but there's nothing for 24-bit.

imamelia And using C* or the like forces big-endian mode. 19:08
masak this is the first time I've heard that complaint about pack and unpack.
imamelia Huh.
sorear me too
masak have you discussed this with the Perl 5 people?
imamelia What Perl 5 people?
I've mentioned in on #perl, and at least one other person knows about it...
Currently, I've just been using the 32-bit one and adding or removing a leading \x00, but that seems rather...workaround-ish? 19:09
(Nothing bigger than 32-bit either, but that hasn't come up yet anyway.) 19:10
*mentioned it
But would it be useful enough to have in Perl 6, I guess... 19:12
Maybe a special character sequence for any character length in either big- or little-endian mode? That would be the most flexible option. 19:13
Might be useful for more people.

masak :)
sorear this would work even better if I had a working ||
needs more lols 19:40
jnthn sorear: Real as in data driven. Current stop-gap is "all compile time meta-object actions are events, and the "serialization" is running through that event stream.
tadzik wonders if 12 pages is enough for S26 19:45
any ideas how many lines does lp(1) print on one page?
TimToady usually about 60 (out of 66)
on an old fashioned line printer 19:46
sorear people still use lp?
TimToady on a modern printer, depends on the font size
sorear I guess it's like how in high school I did all my English-class submissions using troff 19:47

TimToady ^@a would work just as well 19:49
sorear tadzik: hat?
TimToady @a.pairs
tadzik sorear: yes
bleh, OOWriter wants to print me this on 108 pages
sorear tadzik: have you tried using pod2man and groff -Tps ? 19:51
tadzik sorear: I don't think pod2man will help with pod6
I guess I'll just visit a xero point 19:52
sorear jnthn: What do you mean when you say that (the purpose of SerializationContext is not BEGIN)? 19:56
19:58 SHODAN left
jnthn sorear: Well, depends if you mean "stuff that happens at begin time" or just BEGIN explicitly. If you mean "stuff that happens at BEGIN time" then yes, that's primarily what it's for. 19:58

masak \o
tadzik hello lue1 20:06

damn this, shift
moritz \o
tadzik hello lue!
masak tadzik: it's slightly ironic that you're now performing a step (printing Pod6) that would benefit by your GSoC work ;)
s/by/from/
tadzik masak: yeah, that's this bootstraping problem :)
I see the pod 6 source, but I have no idea how it should really look about :) 20:07
sorear jnthn: I mean BEGIN specifically 20:10
masak tadzik: :)
sorear jnthn: stuff that happens at BEGIN time can be serialized with non-bounded and otherwise ad-hoc methods. Niecza uses JSON to serialize class meta objects
masak tadzik: Damian proudly asserts that S26 is written in Pod6. in his CPAN module, he bitterly laments that the documentation has to be written in plain ol' POD. :) 20:11
tadzik masak: yeah, I saw that :)
masak he names it "cruel irony" or something like that...
tadzik "The Cruel Irony", or something
hehe :)
sorear jnthn: BEGIN itself seems to want to be bounded though, if we want BEGIN { $x = Num } to work well
benabik I thought BEGIN was "start of program" not "compile time"
sorear benabik: you're thinking of INIT
excuse me - BEGIN { $x = Num }; ok $x === Num 20:12
lue gets the idea he should continue work on SUPERNOVA, when he has time.
masak I've come to think of BEGIN as "as early as possible", which often means at compile time.
moritz it should really be called ASAP 20:13
20:14 kaare_ left
lue tadzik: ooc, what is your GSoC project? 20:14
tadzik lue: we may be able to combine manpower regarding my GSoC project
sorear hmm, it just occurred to me that rakudo-ng = event sourcing, rakudo-nom = data sourcing
sorear blows the masak-whistle
tadzik tee-hee. The Pod parser for Rakudo :)
tadzik wonders whose whistle makes the "beeeer!" sound 20:15
lue do you even have to ask? It's jnthn's of course :)
masak sorear: :) 20:18
benabik sorear: Ah. I thought BEGIN was INIT and COMPILE was BEGIN. BEGIN seems like an odd name for it, but I'll get used to it. :-)
masak sorear: I think "state sourcing" is a more apt term.
moritz benabik: hysteric raisins, and all that
benabik moritz: ... ? 20:19
20:19 bluescreen10 left
masak well, as early as possible might as well be called BEGIN :) 20:19

lue tadzik: looks cool, esp. considering there are some things about Pod6 I'll be purposely delaying (e.g. #=<> declarator blocks) or not doing without decent arguments (e.g. all the Pod6:: classes S26 implies are necessary.) 20:35
dalek ecs: 15b1a49 | moritz++ | S32-setting-library/Exception.pod:
[S32/Exceptions] add a few syntax errors
 20:37
sorear Normally I see people make commits like "Remove a few syntax errors"/
.
masak: Why is event sourcing a good thing for web apps but bad for Perl 6? 20:38
moritz what's a nice way to supply the default error message programmatically?
sorear moritz: What do you mean by default error message? 20:39
moritz if I do a "has $.message = 'default string';", I'll get a conflict with X::Base
sorear: X::Syntax::Obsolete.message should default to 'Unsupported use of $<old>;$<when> please use $<new>' 20:40
tylercurtis BUILD?
moritz BUILD is an idea, yes
tadzik lue: my project does not aim for a complete Pod 6 implementation
sorear I think you want to override new() for this
moritz why new and not a BUILD? 20:41
masak sorear: huh? I didn't say it was.
sorear masak: YOU didn't, JNTHN does
masak oh!
that's funny, only yesterday jnthn described the things he's doing with serialization as event-based. 20:42
lue ah. So it only does as much as it needs to be useful as a part of Rakudo?
sorear What Rakudo does now is event-based
jnthn sorear: Not really... 20:43
sorear: Not in a formal way.
masak I'm afraid I don't know enough about the Rakudo internals to have an opinion...
jnthn sorear: nom is still event-driven but with a bunch of cross-referencing already worked out.
It's half way to being data-driven.
Becasue going all the way is another hard chunk of work that I don't want to take on just yet. :) 20:44
tadzik lue: it aims to be a base on which it will be more like a LHF than a hellofahardwork to implement something Pod-related. Also the most exciting bit is of course the .WHY :)
moritz WHY? :-)
lue
.oO(say .WHEREFORE # 'art thou Romeo?')
 20:46
tadzik I feel that we have an alias .BECAUSE :)
oh that will be something reversed 20:47
it could add the explanations in runtime :)
20:47 bluescreen10 left
lue That reminds me of a why/because conditional I've thought about (e.g. why {$x += $y; say $z;} because $q = 5) which would just be a reverse if/then. 20:48
tadzik augment class Tea { has $.more.BECAUSE('I can') }

moritz event sourcing might a good idea for a time-traveling debugger 20:54
masak that's basically what Tardis does. 20:57
oh wait. no, it isn't.
:)
so yes, that would be a good place to apply it. :)
lue
.oO(IIUC event sourcing from what I've just looked up, then Tardis would actually use event editing)
 20:59
21:00 bluescreen100 joined, donri left
masak lue: events are append-only. 21:03
but I guess with a time-traveling debugger, one could choose to "restart" from some point in the event stream, discarding all the events after that point as belonging to a false future. 21:04
