[Coke] grep for vtable in src/Perl6/Metamodel/BOOTSTRAP.pm (in the rakudo repo) 11:44
arnsholt tadzik: It is? When I tried it last (which is a bit back, admittedly) it failed because of Linux library naming shenanigans
tadzik arnsholt: dunno then. I remember it working though :) 11:45
arnsholt is native("libc") went looking for libc.so on the machine I tried, which didn't work because it's named libc.so.6 or something
arnsholt goes testing 11:46
FROGGS perl6 -MNativeCall -e 'sub A ( int ) is native("libc") { }; A(7)' 11:47
Cannot locate native library 'libc.so'
who is searching for the library? parrot?
arnsholt dlopen(3) 11:48
If you try to `ls /lib64/libc.*` you'll see why it can't find libc.so 11:49
tadzik: Well, dlopen("") works, true
But the test is to check that opening .dylibs on OS X works
Er, native("") that is 11:50
FROGGS what about creating a lib on your own? and load this one? 11:51
arnsholt But I wanted to write a test that tests it on OS X while still being an OK test on other OSes, to sidestep the whole "which OS is this again" issue

Fix typo in README.

Some inconsistent naming in the CPointer REPR example, where both FooPointer and FooHandle referred to the same class. Closes #14.
12:00
arnsholt isBEKaml: That's what I thought too, but it seems like it doesn't :/
Although right now there's something odd with loading libs in general on Linux 12:01
isBEKaml arnsholt: Oh, I've seen that sort of things happening on different distributions. Debian keeps libraries in one place, ubuntu another, slackware 32 bit yet another and slackware 64 bit keeps its own 64 bit libraries. Ooh, my shenanigans! 12:02
arnsholt: I don't know if this is what you're seeing - if libc were natively compiled on each of these distributions, dlopen should probably work. 12:04
arnsholt The problem isn't really locations, as far as I can make out, it's naming 12:05
dlopen("libc") goes looking for a file named libc.so, but the actual file is called libc.so.6 which makes everything break horribly =(
isBEKaml Oh. :( 12:06

arnsholt moritz: Using Rakudo and NQP heads the test suite seems to run fine on my machine. What revisions are you on? 12:22
moritz arnsholt: rakudo was up-to-date at the time I posted the ticket 12:23
and nqp was generated with --gen-nqp
arnsholt Hmm. How many commits between NQP_REVISION and NQP head> 12:25
[Coke] moritz: this is for TclList, which started out with a vtable override, which also didn't work. Checking Bootstrap... 12:26
moritz: odd, those are dynamic calls; my overrides (originally from parrot-nqp days) are in the class definition (TclList has an !@array, which handles ...) 12:28
... and get_string isn't one of them (though I implement a get_string method.) Odd. 12:30
moritz note that a method named get_string alone doesn't help at all, since vtables and methods are stored in different places 12:31
[Coke] aye. I know (knew?) that, as I am using "is parrot_vtable_handler" or somesuch. 12:33
just another mysterious "used to work in parrot-nqp" change that does make sense.
moritz oh, I've just seen that the rakudo vtable stuff is implemented in src/Perl6/Metamodel/ParrotInterop.pm 12:35
which calls pir::stable_publish_vtable_mapping__vPP
which seems to take a type object and a hash 12:36
Ulti hmmm my Text::Emotion module doesn't work when installed via panda, it has a problem with the POD parsing: No such method 'content' for invocant of type 'Any' 12:39
the pir file has all that data embedded though 12:40
moritz is "installed with panda" the problem, or is it "precompiled"?
Ulti I can check 12:41
I imagine its precompiled, since panda hasn't done anything wrong and its in the path etc.
12:50 tgt left 12:51 gootle joined
[Coke] moritz: so, the "has ... is parrot_vtable_handler" works when using handles for a hasa. how does one specify that a method in the object handles one of the parrot vtables? 12:53
Ulti moritz: precompiled
:[ 12:54
12:54 atrodo joined
Ulti so if a .pir is sat in a local lib folder you get the same message, if its just the .pm everything works as expected grabbing from $=pod 12:55
[Coke] does that require the code you pointed to in BOOTSTRAP?
Ulti writes a test
[Coke] (looks like the bootstrap code is still pointing the vtable to a handler hasa, not to a method. 12:56

Ulti how can I just directly execute a pir file with parrot? 14:09
moritz parrot file.pir
but that doesn't work for rakudo-generated .pir files
Ulti ok there is something really weird going on, if I directly run parrot it wiggs out not being able to find libraries 14:10

what do I do with rakudo-generated .pir files?
moritz you 'use' them

20:54 hash_table joined, birdwindupbird left
skids supernovus: as an lvalue, or just as an rvalue? as an rvalue just encode the string to a buffer, or all the values in the buffer into an Int, and use shifts/masks. 20:59
sorear supernovus: because of perl 6's love of immutable types, I think lvalue vec() is a bad fit. 21:01
supernovus: probably better would be to use a compact array of uint1 and then coerce it to a Buf when you're done filling it out 21:02
supernovus skids: I am working with Buf's directly, no Str involved here, and for my purposes, lvalue only, no assignments. Basically, I want to be able to do the same as vec($buf, 2, 16);
err, rvalue only, not lvalue, sorry
japhb_ In full (spec) Perl 6, you'd just use an array of int1. We just don't have that implemented yet.
skids Always 16? Should be easy then. 21:03
japhb_ sigh, yes, uint1
supernovus No, some are 8, some are 16. But with 8 I should be able to just do $buf[$offset] ?
skids supernovous: yes as long as your bit-endianness is the way you want it. 21:04
japhb_ Are the 16-bit values stored LE or BE?
supernovus oh, and some are 32
japhb_ supernovus, if it's always on byte boundaries, consider just using Buf.unpack 21:06
sorear subbuf + unpack is what I would do in p5 21:07
skids r: my $b = Buf.new(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8); my $bits = 16; my $offset = 2; ([+|] $b[(($bits div 8) * $offset) ..^ (($bits div 8) * ($offset + 1))] Z+< (0, 8, 16, 32)).fmt("%x").say; 21:11
