The address of the error was at 0x67503a3a, on thread 0x880. The error code is 0xc0000005. This error may be a bug in the CLR or in the unsafe or non-verifiable portions of user code.

lichtkind never heard of it 17:00
diakopter you and I have discussed it several times over the past few years :)
17:00 gbacon joined
lichtkind maybe it changed its name :) 17:01
i found diakopter.blogspot.com/2010/05/what...whats.html
diakopter yeah, I guess sorta
lichtkind diakopter: so what was it name dbefore?
diakopter perlesque is a strongly-typed (and fully type-annotated) OO/functional subset of p6 17:02
17:02 JimmyZ joined
diakopter by that definition, it never had another name 17:02
but I will be reusing the sprixel name as the compiler/runtime that targets the perlesque language as an intermediate language 17:03
perlesque isn't a p6 implementation, per se, in that it's not intended to ever implement "6.0" 17:04
but hopefully sprixel might :P
lichtkind: but soon here (when jnthn recuperates and regains stamina/tuits to continue hacking on nqpclr/6model), I'll put perlesque/sprixel on the back burner again, and go back to porting nqp-rx's regex to the CLR (written in nqp though) 17:07
lichtkind so its a stepping stone for sprixel? 17:08
diakopter perlesque is, sure
lichtkind thanks always nice when starting to see clearer :) 17:09
diakopter but perlesque itself is essentially complete now
lichtkind great
diakopter thought I keep finding LHF that's trivially implementable
(so maybe it'll keep growing) ;) 17:10
lichtkind so there is a chance to have full fledged perl 6 on .net and mono?
and what you mean by LHF?
diakopter well, yes :P but a much better chance from niecza and/or rakudo 17:11
6model/nqpclr is intended to be a new backend/base for rakudo
(on .net and mono)
but sorear's niecza has huge momentum and is being bootstrapped quickly 17:12
lichtkind diakopter im recently not that insights so good you tell me 17:14
diakopter sorear's a (fulltime, I bet) student, and jnthn, pmichaud, moritz_, masak, colomon, TimToady, and I all have fulltime jobs, last I heard... so that restricts tuits :D otoh p6 is part of TimToady's job description
and pmurias is a double-fulltime student ;) 17:15
or something
mberends works 3-4 fulltime jobs I think
colomon Yes, needing to earn a living does limit my ability to hack on Perl 6 at will...
lichtkind tim is working for a chip factory if i recall correctly? 17:16
diakopter a $1B chip design company, yeah
I don't know if they mfr their own chips 17:17

diakopter (which is where I thought you were; sorry if I'm wrong)
moritz_ "full time" usually means nominally 8 hours work per day - "double full time" would be 16 hours then
not unheard of

moritz_: how does one denote an array type in a routine signature? 17:54
a signature w/o variable names
moritz_ Array ? 17:55
rakudo: sub f(Array $) { }
p6eval rakudo 244d0f: ( no output )
diakopter oops, I meant a compact aray
so, a primitive type
moritz_ Array[10] for a packed array, iirc
diakopter what would the 10 denote there
I need a type name 17:56
moritz_ 10 is the number of array items
the [] is just a parametrization, which is part of the type name
diakopter I wouldn't want to limit the routine's signature to the number of items in the array
dimensionality, yes
but I need to be able to say sub f(int[] --> int) essentially 17:57
so what's the right way to write int[]
moritz_ Array[int] --> int then
diakopter ergh.. but there's really not an "Array" here :/ 17:58
how about dimensionality
the second parameter to Array?
moritz_ sorry, if it's not an Array then I don't know what it is
and neither how to write it 17:59

Array, as such, I mean
moritz_ how many mentions would you want? 18:03
diakopter I guess what I'm getting at is where in the Snn do I find something telling me that @ means full blown Array type
moritz_ @ means Positional
arnsholt @ means Positional, IIRC
moritz_ not full-blown Array
diakopter ok

or just Array of Array of Array of int and such 18:07
18:07 cdarroch joined, cdarroch left, cdarroch joined

18:08 pmurias left
moritz_ though I'm not really sure 18:08
diakopter oh
that seems logical
well
one would need to support both to get other possibilities 18:09
18:10 justatheory joined
diakopter so, perlesque will deviate from S09 in that "Unless explicitly declared to be of fixed size, such arrays are autoextending just like ordinary Perl arrays" won't be true, since every array at that level is fixed-size (like all CLR arrays). Obviously sprixel's Array would merely be a wrapper on List<GeneralContainerObject>, which is exactly what nqpclr/6model does now. 18:13
when assigning to CLR array variables, however, obviously the array variable can then refer to an array of a different size from its original 18:14
sorry, thinking half-aloud here
List<RakudoObject> is nqpclr/6model's edition
where List<> is the CLR's built-in generic auto-extending array 18:15
with List semantics

pmichaud good afternoon, #perl6 18:47
tadzik 'afternoon pmichaud
pmichaud: mind taking a look at the worry patch I sent to nqp-rx GH issues? 18:48
pmichaud I saw it.... how does it differ from the existing .panic, ooc? 18:49
moritz_ it doesn't die
(at least it shouldn't) 18:50
tadzik well, it prints to stderr instead of dying. I tried to refactor the common parts to some 'panicmsg' method but it gave some weird effects when maketested
18:50 _twitch left
pmichaud hmmm 18:50
at some point I'd probably want it to work a lot like STD.pm's .worry 18:51
i.e., it caches the worries up for later
tadzik at some point, maybe. But first make it run, then make it right, no? 18:53
pmichaud well, "first make it run" implies "don't create an API (that others will use) that you then throw away"
if people think of .worry as being the same as warn/note, that's a bit of an issue 18:54
tadzik hmm
pmichaud .worry in STD.pm doesn't issue anything to STDERR until/unless something happens later, iirc
tadzik std: 0123 #OK octal
p6eval std 625303c: OUTPUT«ok 00:01 118m␤»
tadzik like this?
pmichaud yes, that's one example 18:55
I think there are others
std: 0123 + 456 18:56
p6eval std 625303c: OUTPUT«Potential difficulties:␤ Leading 0 does not indicate octal in Perl 6; please use 0o123 if you mean that at /tmp/auGcMaBoLV line 1:␤------> 0123⏏ + 456␤ok 00:01 120m␤»

p6eval std 625303c: OUTPUT«===SORRY!===␤Variable $x is not predeclared at /tmp/WbJltL_xHg line 1:␤------> $x⏏ $x␤Two terms in a row at /tmp/WbJltL_xHg line 1:␤------> $x ⏏$x␤ expecting any of:␤ bracketed infix␤ infix or meta-infix␤

..in Perl 6; please …
pmichaud Note that the 0123 error is listed under "other potential difficulties", as opposed to being warned about immediately.
tadzik right 18:58
pmichaud iiuc, .worry means that the compiler thinks there might be a problem in the code that can lead to a later error, and gives the programmer the opportunity to use '#OK' to mean "don't worry about it"
moritz_ is .worry related to .suppose ? 18:59
tadzik so that should rather be 'put the message in some array for later' than 'print to stderr'?
pmichaud well, it depends on how/where you're wanting to use .worry at the moment
tadzik hmm
pmichaud if you're wanting a mechanism to ultimately do the same as STD's .worry, then yes we should make it clear that we're storing up possible difficulties 19:00
if you're wanting to issue warnings to stderr in the middle of the compile (but not throw an exception), perhaps we want <.note> or something like that.
tadzik I see
moritz_ +1 to calliing it .note for now 19:01
pmichaud I'd also be very pleased to see us refactor the position code to be .locmess
(to match STD)
tadzik moritz_: for calling it .note and using .note instead of .worry for now? 19:02
moritz_ tadzik: right
pmichaud: I don't dare touching nqp-rx while it fails tests
flussence (oh, so *that's* the difference between note and warn...)
tadzik does it?
pmichaud I think nqp-rx is passing again, but perhaps I'm wrong about that?
moritz_ probably depends on which parrot 19:03
tadzik it does for me
for the same Parrot Rakudo uses, at least

There's also a cultural problem we need to fix, but that's harder.
pmichaud I agree that automating helps
but it also introduces delays
i.e., someone makes a commit; the automated system detects the problem at some later point, the person who made the commit isn't necessarily available to fix it timely 20:28

masak more or less.
tab handling is the only tricky part, I predict.
PerlJam wants Str.autoformat ala Damian ;)
masak PerlJam: vol wellunteered!
colomon masak: my current notion is to have my code play itself with slightly different settings so I can see which setting comes out on top.... ;)
masak pokes PerlJam with a "do it!" twig 22:05
colomon: no comment :)
tadzik hmm, indent seems doable 22:06
PerlJam that would require some tuits. But as things typically go, when I do get a few tuits, some other random thing has captured my interest
tadzik: you could probably bang out the add/remove spaces thing in a few minutes if you ignore the tabs issue
the spec doesn't mention a defaults for $steps, but * seems like a nice default. 22:07
s/lts/lt/ 22:08
22:09 gottreu left
tadzik maybe there's just no default 22:09
masak I'm not sure having * as a default is good for readability.
that's my meaning.
tadzik especially when indent(*) is basically unindent(*) 22:10
masak there's an unindent? :) 22:13
PerlJam maybe it should be $str.indent(-*) :-)
masak euugh. 22:14
tadzik minus-whatever, it's so like minus-zero
flussence # Looks like you failed 7 tests of 7 22:16
whee
masak I notice there is a little ambiguity in the .indent spec. it doesn't say *where* in the \h prefix new indentation is added.
I'd go with "at the end", due to tab characters. 22:17
but it doesn't say.
22:17 colomon left
flussence "after each logical newline" 22:17
tadzik flussence: whatcha wrigint?
flussence tests for .indent, which apparently don't exist yet... 22:18

flussence I was gonna try doing the code, but I had all the fun last time :)

masak flussence++ 22:20
flussence: here's a tip: implement Str.indent *outside* of the setting.
sorear TimToady: ping 22:21
flussence yeah, I vaguely remember that from doing samespace last time. I think I lost the gist URL for that one... 22:22
22:22 hercynium left
tadzik oh, just write a sub for that 22:22
or use MONKEY_TYPING and augment class Str
sorear TimToady: you were saying something the other day about list assignment being a purely syntactic concept... in your model, my $x; sub foo() is rw { $x }; foo() = (1, 2); # Does this assign $x = 1 ?
PerlJam probably augment class Cool rather than Str. 22:23
tadzik . o O ( oh my. That's so readable and straightforward even though it *is* the code )
probably

PerlJam rakudo: my $str = "aaaaaaaabbbb"; say $str.subst( /^^ 'a' ** { 0..4 } /, 'x', :g ); 22:39
p6eval rakudo da243f: OUTPUT«xbbbb␤»
PerlJam is that a known bug or am I missing something?
tadzik what is a bug in here? 22:40
ah, one x
PerlJam / 'a' ** { 0..4 } / should match a maximum of 4 'a' characters 22:41
btw, it works if I leave out the closure. 22:42
rakudo: my $str = "aaaaaaaabbbb"; say $str.subst( /^^ 'a' ** 0..4 /, 'x', :g );

snarkyboojum g'day #perl6 22:43
who has access to update links on perl6.org?
tadzik o/ 22:44
sorear PerlJam: 'a' ** { 0..4 } = 'a' ** { True } = 'a'* 22:46
I think you wanted 'a' ** 0..4 22:47
snarkyboojum tadzik: you seem have to commit access to perl6.org on github - can you update the broken link to viv on the homepage for me? :D
sorear oh, I'm wrong 22:48
returning a Range should work.
tadzik snarkyboojum: can you show me the exact place? 22:49
snarkyboojum tadzik: well the link on the compilers page points to github.com/perl6/std, but the actual viv script is at github.com/perl6/std/raw/master/viv 22:51

[Perl6/Actions] Panic on "use v6.2", "use v7", etc.

I added two variables (@MAX_PERL_VERSION and $MAX_PERL_VERSION) that need to be maintained as the version of Perl that Rakudo recongizes changes. Currently they're set to just 6, so 5.99.99.99 and 6.0 are accepted, but 6.0.0.0.1 is rejected.
This fixes RT #80126.
