Fix to character class handling.

With this, NQP self-hosted on JVM can do tests 1..20 from t/nqp with only two failures.		 00:14
jnthn We get the odd ones from beyond there too...didn't look too hard.

japhb jnthn, this commit seems strange to me: github.com/jnthn/nqp-jvm-prep/commit/9a5e5a5e1f ... since you're doing ternaries all over the place, why negate the predicate in each case, instead of just switching the branches of the ternary? Or does NQP optimize that away automatically? 00:33

jnthn japhb: 'cus I wrote it the wrong way round first time and then wanted to fix it quickly... :) 00:34
I need to reconcile the diffs here with the NQP repo anyway, so I'll take care of it then 00:35

jnthn Grr. There's some mixin bug that hoses any test that involves named parameters in some way. Not having much look finding it...probably a combination of it being 2:30am and the 15% beer... :) 01:31
Anyways, I think the self-hosted passes at least half of the tests that the cross-compiled does. 01:32
colomon \o/ 01:33
how many is the cross-compiled passing now?
jnthn 57
colomon of?

jnthn There's 65 in t/nqp in the NQP repo, but 3 are Parrot specific, so 62 is the goal I guess. 01:34

jnthn The best clue I have on the mixins bug is that it only happens once we hit the mixin cache. 01:35

sorear I can't parse what you're trying to do 03:16
colomon sorear: I'm looking at the broken code in Bailador
sorear so what are you trying to do? 03:17
colomon it takes a string like /params/:foo and tries to build a regex which compares the full string and captures the :foo bit

colomon apparently that used to capture the "bar" in Rakudo, but they've changed it to match Niecza's behavior. 03:20

TimToady because it's really switching to a new block in midblock, so the ; is a bit like a { when there really is a block 06:10

# Computed re that splits up a Hangul name into LVT or LV syllables
which is one of the fun bits if you want to convert Unicode character names to code points 09:52
jnthn: how big is that brute-force hash that NQP-JVM currently makes for charnames? 09:55
sorear niecza uses algorithmic conversion for hangul
nwc10 And does it have all of /^HANGUL SYLLABLE .*/, qr/^CJK UNIFIED IDEOGRAPH-.*/ and qr/^CJK COMPATIBILITY IDEOGRAPH-.*/ 09:56
Perl 5 does too
sorear Yes.
nwc10 that regex
moritz fwiw the nqp-jvm-prep tests all fail here
t/qast/qast_variable.t ....... 1/9 Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Wrong number of arguments passed; expected 0..0, but got 1
nwc10 That was more for jnthn - does his hack have those in?
moritz: here too
09:58 kaleem left 10:05 jerome joined
jnthn nwc10: Not sure, didn't check. I didn't really expect the hack to be the Real Solution... 10:07
nwc10 it's a reasonable hack. :-) 10:08
jnthn aye....but a hack
moritz: make nqptest works though ;)
nwc10 my rough estimate is that loading charnames on Perl 5 chews about 12M
sorear how many megs does it permanently add to the git repo tho
jnthn sorear: How many megs does what add? 10:09
nwc10 or was it 10M? Anyway, it's about 20M total, but it loads in a bunch of things
sorear: not much - the hack is to loop over the API that does exist, and hash it for an inverse lookup
jnthn sorear: The 10 lines of Java that build the hash? :)
yes, what's weird is that it knows how to turn codes into names, just not vice versa...
nwc10 anyway, I think I can see a way to build a trie+stuff which gets it down to under 2M
sorear jnthn: I was thinking you committed a copy of the character db
jnthn sorear: No :) 10:10
nwc10 2M of const static data. Good for shared pages in OSes :-)
and demand loading
what's the correct way to access @ARGV in NQP? And does NQPJVM support it yet? 10:11
can we have it for eval bot? I want to spam the channel with backtraces :-) 10:12

geekosaur guis won't know that much about jar files, but they're just renamed zip files 14:45
a jvm/jre comes with a "jar" command usually, which behaves like "tar" but processes zip files (and manages the metadata entry that should be the first item in a jar file)

geekosaur you might also look around for java class decompilers, but I don't really know what you would do with the output eithewr
right, but unpacking it gives you access to any images and such in the jar. I can't tell yu what to do with them afterward...

Ulti .jar is just .zip rename the file to do some windows GUI extract 15:18
then zip it back up once you've played around and rename to .jar and it will work
in the same way open ebook formats are just zip archives of html files 15:19
most jar files also have the .class and .java files side by side assuming its an open source project... 15:20
timotimo i'm not sure the java files will even help that much. it's likely a big undertaking to translate whatever it is. it might potentially use some very advanced jav VM features or something like that, and those aren't easily ported :( 15:27

drKreso tadzik: Any idea where can I look? 15:59

jnthn Oh...that does surprise me a bit.
16:00 cogno left
jnthn As in, I didn't think those did any evil... 16:00
arnsholt Not really
They both have "nqp_nfa_run(interp, OBJECT_BODY($2), $3, $4, &total_fates);"
It doesn't like the second argument: passing argument 2 of ‘nqp_nfa_run’ from incompatible pointer type (expected ‘struct NFABody *’ but argument is of type ‘void **’) 16:01
Changing it to "nqp_nfa_run(interp, (NFABody *) OBJECT_BODY($2), $3, $4, &total_fates);" gives the type-pun warning instead
jnthn ah...
'cus of different level of indirection, maybe? 16:02
Perhaps casting it to NFAInstance * and then passing the address of .body within that may help...or may not :) 16:03
.oO( the joy of convincing compilers that you're right... )
arnsholt Right, right. Different number of splats probably
Yeah, I think that'll do it 16:05
The sixmodel stooge object has "void *data" so taking & of that will be void **, but data in the NFAInstance isn't a pointer 16:06

tadzik drKreso: HTTP::Easy must have a part where it reads the HTTP request, possibly until it can parse it 16:11
it may be that it eats too big chunks, and somewhere it calls .read() or .recv() on a socket one time too much 16:12
then it hangs
you'll notice that when you terminate curl, then bailador gets the request properly
for example put die() somewhere in your app code, then curl the url and ^C it
so I guess that must be something related to hanging on IO 16:13

census computer skills are obviously relevant to nearly everybody these days, but it is not clear to me that computer science per se is. why not say that everybody should understand statistics because stats are everywhere? 20:07
And, why is former President Clinton there and not Current President Obama? Nobody should be #1 before President Obama. 20:09

census It is a very nice idea to have programming everywhere. But I also don't think it is very feasible right now. First, there are hardly enough quality math teachers in the U.S. Teaching algebra is already an issue. Second, it is not cheap to have computers and computer labs in every school. Some school districts are not ready to afford this. 20:12
And the computer labs would not just be for every school, but more so, for every student. So there would be a need for multiple computer labs. Worry of potential theft and vandilism. . . 20:13
timotimo it's not like you have to buy an alienware rig for each student 20:15
hell, get every student a raspberry pi
cognominal in some places in France, they give iPads to the students. It is blind faith like faith in TV for education 40 years ago. iPad ae nice but educational software does not exitt yet. 20:16
PerlJam also, the fed would probably subsidize the purchase of computers
census PerlJam: the fed in what country?
We are practically in an international recession.
and this is in developed countries. what about poorer countries, like sub-sahrahan africa? 20:17
these are places where just having decent textbooks are in an issue.
