[Coke] stares blankly at the remaining opcodes. 00:24
diakopter what are they 00:25
[Coke] gist.github.com/coke/6799633 00:26
diakopter I don't understand these 00:27
[Coke] the opcodes, or the way in which they are presented?
diakopter the last section means there are ops that are documented that don't exist in moar?
[Coke] diakopter: yes
or my code isn't finding where they are defined.
and I've only documented ops that exist somewhere. (usually nqp-jvm) 00:28
diakopter jnthn: so all I need to do is implement the bottom section of [Coke]'s gist? :)
[Coke] no. that's doesn't count things that aren't documented. :) 00:29
they'll probably help, though, sure.
jnthn diakopter: we'll need msot of those, yeah 00:30
[Coke] if someone groks the lex opcodes, this would be a great list to write up some ops for. If someone gets me the basics, I can format it all properly. 00:33
gist.github.com/coke/6944137
jnthn what, you mean the names aren't, like, totally logical? :D 00:38
diakopter they're completely descriptive. 00:38
jnthn [get|bind]lex[_\w]? are all just normal lexical lookup
bindlexdyn/getlexdyn just walk the caller chain
getlexcaller walks the caller chain but at each step walks the lexicals from that frame's point of view 00:39
getlexouter is normal lexical lookup but skips the current frame
getlexrel* do lexical/dynamic/caller lookup relative to the specified ctx
lexotic is something else altogether 00:40
It's used to implement return
[Coke] danke 00:48
I'll see if I can convert that into docs.

diakopter ammoun: this channel is for Perl 6 questions, but I think you need //eg instead of //g 02:14
geekosaur I don't think /e helps there at all 02:16
ammoun e stands for expression right?

geekosaur it stands for eval

jnthn: oh, and in case you were wondering "Allocating Less Cursors" -- that would be a good time to use "fewer", since "cursor" is not used as a mass noun there. 12:26
colomon masak++
jnthn masak: That distinction is probably gone by the next generation, much like whom is mostly gone to mine. :) 12:29
masak please, no karma. I feel bad enough already being a grammar nazi... :)
jnthn So by getting it "wrong" I'm simply ahead of my time :P 12:30
masak jnthn: I'm a firm believer of language being a flexible, evolving thing. but that argument is silly, and I hope you realize that.
jnthn masak: I wasn't being entirely serious about the second bit, but there's at least a grain of truth in the first. 12:31
masak there are certainly "less/fewer" fights not worth having. such as ss/6 items <(or less)>/or fewer/ -- see itre.cis.upenn.edu/~myl/languagelog...03775.html 12:32
but in the case of "less cursors", that just sounds wrong to me because the distinction makes sense to uphold. 12:33
JimmyZ are you talking about designing english? 12:34
nwc10 masak: I also thought this
encrypted.google.com/search?q=10+i...CAcQ_AUoAQ 12:35
masak JimmyZ: no, just following it in its current implementation.
jnthn JimmyZ: No, just about a non-native speaker being upset about a construction a native speaker knows is technically wrong, but would never actually react to or intuitively feel is wrong.
masak :P
jnthn: oh, get off your low horse.
jnthn When I saw the "5 items or less" article I was like..."so what's wrong with it" :) 12:36
masak me too.
that, to me, is over-reacting.
hm, interesting. I would want it as "5 or fewer items", not "5 or less items". but "5 items or less" is fine to me. 12:37
which means that the "or less" probably refers to a *hidden mass noun* of some sort. not the items, but (maybe) the amount representing the items. 12:38
JimmyZ to avoids this, you could 'use chinese;' 12:46

Ulti am I the only person who gets angry when seeing the phrase "in production" in relation to Perl5 or Perl6? no one asks how many people use BASH in production or sed, awk or any other language like tool that's just useful regardless... a better question is anyone using Perl6 for something useful thats hard to accomplish in Perl5, if that question isnt yes who cares if its used in production if there isn't a benefit to doing so! 13:13
masak Ulti: many people are not early adopters. 13:14
Ulti: they basically want an answer to the question "did someone else do something serious with it yet?"
I can see where they're coming from.
Ulti plenty of things are really specific too, lisp in the form of CLIPS is used "in production" for hardware control systems specific to space flight... is that interesting?
masak: sure but the problem is everyone else isn't vocal in the perl world 13:15
masak what's that got to do with anything?
Ulti I've taught about ten people Perl in just the last few years, none of them use the "community" or would think to talk about the tools they use
its not something they care about
they just assume software tools are like hammers
they will always be around in one form or another
perl6 could have a thousand early adopters and you wouldnt know unless they were financially invested in everyone else using perl6 13:16
masak to some people, Perl 5 is exactly that: a hammer. they don't go to hammer conferences or workshops -- the entire notion of doing that is meaningless to them.
Ulti but thats my point perl5 is never going to die, its just become a hammer instead of some luxury gadget worth chatting about 13:17

Ulti if Perl6 is the next version of Perl I dont get why anyone would expect it to suddenly generate startups wanting flashy hip devs
masak Ulti: hm, interesting point.
Ulti: I think we're far from that time yet, though. of Perl 5 becoming just a hammer.
Ulti I'd say Perl is essentially expected to exist on any UNIX system like awk and sed 13:21
Ulti is trying to remember if his raspberry pi had Perl... my NAS did
Ulti the tiny embedded swarm robot I used for my research had perl which I used with swig to write my controllers :S 13:23
and if in production means Perl6 takes the place of Perl5 to that level its a long long way away just because of lag in all the different people who will have to package it 13:24
if anyone has the latest Rakudo* installed, could you try doing 'panda install LWP::Simple' and see if you get: No such method 'postcircumfix:<( )>' for invocant of type 'Signature' 13:43
LylePerl checkout my new hammer 13:46
Ulti if the swiss army made hammers it would be perl6 13:49
diakopter Ulti: japhb__ mentioned here the other day he used rakudo-jvm to parallelize something nifty at his Googler job 13:55
sounded like a personal tool (not critical path of delivery of service to customer) for syseng stuff 13:56
Ulti yeah I've played at doing the same though I haven't used all the nice regexes Util made for me yet 13:57
Ulti my use case for perl day to day usually involves using GNU parallel alongside, it would be nice to have simple built in syntax for doing a lot of that 13:58

[Coke] bindlex takes a long, a callframe, and an int - lexes are stored by position, not name/ 15:02
?
(what's the int index into the callframe? level up?)

jnthn arnsholt: I merged latest master into nativecall-jvm 15:26
arnsholt jnthn: Excellent! 15:35
jnthn arnsholt: I had to change the r_atpos to atpos to get NativeCall to compiler on JVM; I think we can actually switch it to that without busting it on Parrot these days too 15:37
arnsholt: I can't seem to get t/nativecall/01-basic.t to work... 15:39
arnsholt Hmm. That's not good... 15:40
What kind of error do you get?
jnthn java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Unable to load library '': Native library (win32-x86-64/.dll) not found in resource path ([file:/C:/consulting/rakudo/nqp/, file:/C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/QuickTime/QTSystem/QTJava.zip]) 15:41
oh...
arnsholt Argh. That might be a bug in the test script 15:42
jnthn nah, it's looking for printf
And I guess trying to use the "current process" trick..
arnsholt Yeah, that's the idea 15:43
Writing portable tests for NativeCall is really tricky
jnthn Yeah, the current process thing doesn't work on Windows... 15:47
Did the tests actually pass for you?
On non-Widnows? 15:48
masak those links, so unsatisfied...
arnsholt When I last worked on this it worked on Linux, yeah
arnsholt And they still do on Linux 15:49
jnthn Looks like JNA may give us a portable way...trying it.
load me...and then just link me...till I can get my satisfaction... 15:50
diakopter m
jnthn arnsholt: ooh, I managed to get it to do ok - printf :) 15:51
strdup ain't foudn though...grr
arnsholt Anyways, my plan forward was something like this: 15:52
jnthn oh...but if I make it _strdup it works :) 15:53
arnsholt 1) Get get_boxed_ref working, so that we can run the NativeCall test suite proper and see what happens
2) Fix the bugs that shakes out in the stuff that's already supposed to be working
3) CArray 15:54
4) CStruct
5) Callbacks
moritz 6) everything else :-) 15:56
arnsholt Yeah =)
Perhaps an even more fruitful approach would be making 3) Whatever's needed to get DBIish working
moritz fwiw I'm not sure if DBIish on the JVM should also use NativeCall 15:58
or rather the JDBC drivers
arnsholt That's a very good point 16:00
jnthn We'll still need NativeCall either way, though. 16:01

dalek ecs: 465527e | grondilu++ | S99-glossary.pod:
defining sigil
 20:38
dwarring moritz: should have 20:39
jnthn grrr...I almost forgotted JVM bytecode 20:40
dwarring i've committed there before
arnsholt jnthn: Win32-API on JVM sounds awesome! \o/ 20:44
dwarring grondilu: I'll add rubyish.nqp to perl6_examplkes/interpreters
arnsholt jnthn++
dwarring *examples
dalek p/nativecall-jvm: 764b127 | jnthn++ | src/vm/jvm/runtime/org/perl6/nqp/ (3 files):
Make native call sites nested in P6opaque work.

With this, we can have NativeCall basically working on JVM (will need work on CArray and CStruct before we have full support, though).
jnthn arnsholt: OK, that's (1) done and since the win32 example worked right off, probably (2) also :) 20:45
dwarring: Maybe it belongs as an NQP example in the NQP examples/ dir
arnsholt: I'm just gonna check that my patches to NativeCall.pm6 doesn't bust it on Parrot
dwarring ok, i'll maybe add add to nqp/examples 20:49
arnsholt Ooh, that sounds very promising! 20:50
I'll try to get some stuff done on it in the morrow
jnthn arnsholt: Great!
grondilu dwarring: maybe it's best if you put it in perl6-examples/parsers 20:54
timotimo i misread "morrow" as "moarvm" and was like "wait, when did rakudo get onto moarvm already" 20:55
jnthn arnsholt: grrr...nope, I busted arrays 20:59
grondilu dwarring: oops, haven't read enough. nqp/examples it is, then. 21:00
dalek p/nativecall-jvm: 10abc40 | jnthn++ | src/vm/parrot/pmc/sixmodelobject.pmc:
Add missing 6model v-table forwarders.

With this we can use the normal nqp::atpos_* with CArray. This means NativeCall can be tweaked to build on JVM also without breaking it on Parrot.		 21:20
jnthn arnsholt: Now that things work, is there any reason to keep this work in a branch?
arnsholt: If I merge it now I can just bump NQP_REVISION and update NativeCall, rather than have a branch there too...
dalek p: 825038b | jnthn++ | src/vm/moar/QAST/QASTCompilerMAST.nqp:
Remove leftover code from the Moar nqp-cc.

This avoids loads of calls to nqp::getenvhash(...) in the eval-heavy t/qregex.		 22:22
lue Does anyone here with access to feather know why the percabal.org/syn and feather.perl6.nl/syn pages don't list the S99 entry? It bugs me that it's been missing for a while now. 22:26
grondilu Off Topic: guys, have you watched the latest spacex grasshopper test? www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZDkItO-0a4 22:35
grondilu was skeptical about this thing but he's beginning to be impressed. 22:36
timotimo look at that plume(age) 22:37
that thing is crazy accurate 22:38
diakopter grondilu: that's truly amazing 22:39
benabik Shame the retrieval attempt on the v1.1 launch failed. 22:41
jnthn grondilu: wow! 22:47
Science/engineering win.
grondilu what are you guys waiting to build a rocket with a Perl6 control system? 22:48
:)
I'm kidding of course, what you guys do is almost as awesome as what SpaceX does :) 22:49
