Zoffix .ask masak RE RT#124226 Yes, you can resolve types at compile time, but can you resolve methods? If the idea in the ticket is implemented, this, for example, would begin to crash, no? `class Foo { has $!foo; method foo { $!foo } }; INIT Foo.^lookup("foo").wrap: -> | { "not an error".say }; Foo.foo` 00:13

Remove drift on lazy iterable reuse trap

It's not a trap but a bug.

TimToady Zoffix: I'm not using the CArray that way, but I am still trying to isolate the memory leak in my caller-id scanner daemon 01:05
01:05 mcmillhj joined
Zoffix Ah 01:05
01:05 Cabanossi joined
TimToady I know lots of things it isn't, so may have to resort to the heap analyzer, but that's dicey with a daemon 01:05
01:06 pierre_ left 01:07 pierre_ joined 01:12 pierre_ left
TimToady it's a relatively slow leak, so in the current debugging mode I change something and then run it for a day to see whether it still leaks, which is why it's worth asking about possible hypotheses here :) 01:13
Zoffix There's some weird leak with gather/take. This construct leaks: (1…∞).grep(* < 0)[^10] 01:14
TimToady already tried removing his own gather/take, so it'd have to be embedded somewhere 01:15
the weird thing is that if I nqp::force_gc after every input line, it doesn't leak, so it's maybe something do to objects that are forced prematurely to have long-term addresses, or some kind of unreusability/fragmentation in the heap 01:18
things that die from the nursery don't trigger a leak here
(it would seem)
which made me think it might be something to do with the .WHICH of hash keys, but all my experiments there have come up dry 01:20
01:20 AlexDaniel joined
TimToady I haven't tried turning off SPESH yet, so maybe that should be my next experiment 01:21
01:21 Cleverson joined 01:23 pierre_ joined
TimToady my current experiment involves changing the = to := in the original (one-time) buffer allocation: my $buf = CArray[uint8].new(0 xx bufsize); 01:24
on the theory something could be leaking in NativeCall on the decont somehow 01:25
but it's a long shot

moritz I have a weird off-topic question, and hope you don't mind :-) 12:07
so, on linux, a setuid or setgid program generall isn't strace/ptrace'able, even after it dropped its permissions
but, if such a process calls execv() after dropping its permissions, the resulting process can be ptrace()d again 12:08
is there a way to inherit this untracability?
to the exec()d program, that is
according to stackoverflow.com/questions/213379...ter-setuid the PR_SET_DUMPABLE thingy is responsible, but I don't see how I can tell exec and friends to not reset it 12:15

DrForr_ Well, for one it's not mentioned directly in the docs so it's a valid bug to submit... 13:11

jnthn It's part of the current experimental macros implementation
qq is just a normal string quoting constrcut 13:14

Zoffix Basically for that ^ to print whatever $*A is set to. In `token foo` it should be conditionally set to 15 or left at its old value
*conditionally set to 30 16:39
m: grammar { token TOP { :my $*A = 10; :my $*B = 12; <foo> }; token foo { {if $*B == 15 { my $*A = 30; self.bar } else { self.bar }} }; token bar { \d+ { say $*A } } }.parse: "42" 16:40

Zoffix This works with setting it, but if I print the $/, the <bar> match doesn't show up in it. How to shove it into it? 16:40
16:40 wamba left
Zoffix m: say grammar { token TOP { :my $*A = 10; :my $*B = 12; <foo> }; token foo { {if $*B == 15 { my $*A = 30; self.bar } else { self.bar }} }; token bar { \d+ { say $*A } } }.parse: "42" 16:41
camelia 10
Nil
Zoffix well, no $/ is made. I guess something is not right with how to "emulate" a `<bar>` as a call on `self`
m: say grammar { token TOP { :my $*A = 10; :my $*B = 10; <foo> }; token foo { <bar($*B == 10 ?? 30 !! $*A)> }; token bar($*A) { \d+ { say $*A } } }.parse: "42" 16:44
camelia 30
｢42｣
foo => ｢42｣
bar => ｢42｣
Zoffix That's one way that works, but I don't want to modify all teh calls to <bar> in the entire grammar 16:45
(also: this is src/Perl6/Grammar.nqp so no HLL features)
skids m: say grammar { token TOP { :my $*A = 10; :my $*B = 20; <foo> }; token foo { :my $*A = ($*B == 15 ?? 40 !! CALLER::<$*A>); <bar> }; token bar { \d+ { say $*A } } }.parse: "42" 16:49
camelia 10
｢42｣
foo => ｢42｣

Zoffix no CALLER:: in nqp 16:51

Zoffix I think this should do the trick tho: 16:52

camelia 10
｢42｣
foo => ｢42｣
bar => ｢42｣
Zoffix actually, there's some op for caller 16:53
nqp: sub foo() { nqp::say(nqp::getlexcaller('$*FOO')) }; my $*FOO := 42; foo()
camelia 42
Zoffix skids++
skids and then some find op to find the variable prolly.
Zoffix nqp: sub foo() { my $*FOO := 0 ?? 10 !! nqp::getlexdyn('$*FOO'); nqp::say($*FOO) }; my $*FOO := 42; foo() 16:55

Zoffix I don't have subscribtion to that list, but someone should mention the article OP dug up is ancient and discussion moved way past the original ideas in that post. 18:21
El_Che Zoffix: just wait 18:22
it'a round track
we'll get there again :)
Zoffix And I'd say the most up-to-date location for it would be the 6.d prep repo: github.com/perl6/6.d-prep/tree/mas...ded-naming
El_Che: it's not round to my mind. It has been a straight line all the time since I started this last summer and is still on a straight course. 18:23
AlexDaniel hehe there's a proposal to rename rakudo xD
18:24 Amit joined
Amit need nativecall jar to support Java9 18:24
18:24 Amit is now known as Guest14511
Zoffix AlexDaniel: I think Damian Conway also had that proposal. 18:24
Guest14511 can u share that

El_Che rakudo grew on me 18:25
AlexDaniel www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl6...36765.html
geekosaur the whole thing is growing, for all that it's doing so in a loop. like a weird, persistent weed /o\
Zoffix "Ideally the language itself would be "Rakudo" ("Way of the Camel") and the current implementation would be "Rokudo" ("Way of Six"), but that ship has almost certainly already sailed." 18:26
El_Che It's nice to have a luxury problem, but once there are alternative for rakudo, we'll figure something :)
Guest14511 u guys support for nativecall jar?
Zoffix Guest14511: no idea what you mean. 18:27
El_Che: well, there are already. fan lang.
Which was already even promised to be open sourced in non-optimized version.
El_Che future 18:28
maybe
Zoffix It already exists. All you're saying is: let's pretend this isn't a problem until the currently-existing product becomes open-sourced, as was already promised. 18:29
geekosaur Guest14511, last I heard, rakudo-jvm used the jvm in nonstandard ways that don't play well with other Java libraries. and needs more than a single contributor working on it, if it's to progress beyond that.
18:31 imcsk8 joined
Zoffix *sigh* 18:32
Why are people who don't bother keeping themselves in the loop rush out to tell people that the name isn't up for discussion and isn't changing ever?
AlexDaniel I don't know, this whole debate make me feel like we're all living in our personal worlds 18:33
18:35 mcmillhj joined
Zoffix I can certainly see why the problem was never resolved in the past. One group of people expects instant changes while another group says it ain't ever gonna happen without having any facts to back it up. 18:35
lucasb I didn't want to upset you, Zoffix. Admittedly, I may be uninformed of current decisions
AlexDaniel I'm certain that we will resolve it eventually, one way or another 18:36
Zoffix Yeah, someone forking rakudo and releasing a "new language" not tied to Perl at all.

stmuk the specs stuff probably shouldn't even be forwarded anymore since it just encourages people to get misled by them :) 19:04
El_Che rename it to rakudostar-announce 19:05
Zoffix ctilmes: because named args are only used to tie-break dispatch, like in the first case. In the second, there's no tie, so the first candidate gets chosen and then the named don't fit into it
stmuk has anyone got composing unicode stuff to work in colour on a non-Mac platform? I tried copying Menlo fonts over to linux and it doesn't look the same 19:06

Zoffix There's a ticket somewhere to make required nameds be considered better, like so the above would say "A B" 19:36
But I recall jnthn++ mentioning dispatch rules existed for like a decade and every time someone proposes an idea that looks like it makes sense, once implemented, it turns out that it makes someone else go whack 19:37
stmuk or CBDT/CBLC support even better
Zoffix RT#129329 is that ticket
synopsebot RT#129329 [new]: rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=129329 Required named params not narrower than optional ones?
