moritz_ good morning 05:58
diakopter: yap6 has quite high version dependencies on many perl modules... are they really all needed in such new versions? 05:59
diakopter moritz_: no... most of them aren't needed at all 06:07
that was wishful thinking :D 06:08
moritz_ diakopter: ok, I'll (locally) revert the version to older values, test the stuff, and commit if it works 06:09

06:18 justatheory left
diakopter I've never used the Makefile... it's merely stubbed in for an eventuality there was a reason I volunteered to do it :) 06:18
moritz_ ok, so how do I run a program with yap6?
06:21 stevan_ joined
diakopter just pipe the commands on STDIN to sbin/perl6 06:23
but, the version in pugscode svn does only simple arithmetic and variable declaration/assignment. 06:24
and 'say'
it enforces 'my', too.
moritz_ I just looked at sbin/perl6
seems like it supports filenames as well
diakopter yeah, that too.
moritz_ (which is how the rest of the implementations are handled in evalbot)
diakopter oh, ok 06:25
so you'll need File::Slurp
Alias_ Doesn't Perl 6 have a slurp command yet? 06:26
Oh wait, the IO in parrot isn't done, is it
moritz_ Alias_: it does, but perl 5 does not ;)
Alias_ If you don't want a dependency, there's a nice convenient one you can cut and past at PPI::Util::_slurp 06:27
moritz_ Alias_: I don't want to change anything, I just want be able to run diakopter's program ;) 06:29
Alias_ ah :) 06:31
I think I'll shut up now
diakopter prepares to be embarassed 06:32
moritz_ echo 'say 1;' | perl -Ilib ./sbin/perl6 06:33
Adding AST node: ["__PACKAGE__::say",1]
diakopter cool
moritz_ echo 'say 1+2;' | perl -Ilib ./sbin/perl6 06:34
Adding AST node: ["__PACKAGE__::say",3]
diakopter echo 'my $a=4;my $b = 2**(3+$a); say $b'
moritz_ and it even does constant folding!
diakopter har

exp_evalbot rakudo r28058 OUTPUT[1␤]
moritz_ is that valid?
pugs requires binding for that 11:15
which somehow makes sense, because if you acess a(), you use the container, not the contents of the variable
and assignment to the container is binding
ruoso &a is no longer sub invocation in p6 iirc 11:22
it's just a variable name
moritz_ ruoso: yes, but a() invokes the sub bound to &a 11:23

ruoso that seems to be the problem...
pugs doesn't use &a as a variable...
but am I correct? is &a really a variable? 11:28
yes I am 11:29
it is a variable
moritz_ yes, & is a valid sigil
does Callable
ruoso if it is a variable it is a container 11:30
if it is a container, it must have STORE, right?
moritz_ presumably 11:31
so assignment to a &a variable should work? 11:32
there's only one test for it in t/ 11:33
t/var/constant.t 162: try { &wobble = { 23 } };
and that's for testing that 'wobble' is constant, not that the assignment actually works 11:34

ruoso uh?
moritz_ I don't think pugs implements that correctly 11:39
it just does assignment and binding wihtout calling STORE
ruoso oh... ok... it special cases everything then ;)
moritz_ yes 11:40
pugs seemes to have the "get 90% of real world cases right" philosophy
which seems to be a quite popular approach for implementing a Perl 6 compiler 11:41
because the specced behaviour is often hard to get right, hard to understand and doesn't promise quick results

bacek thinks that everything just works... 13:08
ruoso bacek, the question is if every variable is a container, and if every container can STORE
S12 seems to imply that @a can't STORE 13:09
the thing is...
moritz_ TimToady mentioned that the scalar container forwards methods to its contents, while all other containers don't
so @a.STORE only works, if STORE is specced in the role that the '@' sigil implies 13:10
which is Positional, iirc
ruoso If I can't VAR(@a).STORE(...), then I can't replace the array inside a variable, which means that @a = (1,2,3); @a = (2,3,4) would not destroy the first array, but replace the items on that same array 13:11
which is odd
moritz_ let's wait for the allmighty TimToady to clarify it ;) 13:12
ruoso I was expecting to implement @a = (1,2,3) as VAR(@a).STORE(1,2,3), which can actually replace the array
and would make a real difference on bind × assign
13:21 meppl joined
ruoso ok... thinking better... I realised I'm confusing things out... 13:24
every variable points to a container, this is how bind can work. binding works by replacing the container... 13:25
but this is not necessarly visible to the language
13:26 jhorwitz joined
ruoso VAR($a) is necessary because all other variables have alternative access methods to the values... @a[0] or %a<foo> 13:26
but this is at syntax level 13:27
13:27 TJCRI joined, smtms left
ruoso therefore there's no way to confuse when you're calling a method on a value or on the variable itself 13:27
$a.foo is always a method call on the value inside the scalar, while @a.foo is always a method call on the variable @a 13:28
which means
$a.foo is actually ____RESOLVE_VARIABLE_NAME___('$a').FETCH.foo 13:30
and
@a.foo is actually ____RESOLVE_VARIABLE_NAME___('@a').foo
lambdabot Unknown command, try @list
13:30 wknight8111 joined
ruoso not that yet, actually... 13:31
$a.foo is actually ____RESOLVE_VARIABLE_NAME___('$a').cell.FETCH.foo
@a.foo is actually ____RESOLVE_VARIABLE_NAME___('@a').cell.foo
13:31 cmarcelo joined
ruoso @a := @b is ___RESOLVE...___('@a').cell = ___RESOLVE...___('@b').cell 13:32
where ___RESOLVE...___ is the implementation specific way of resolving the variable name...
or, trying to keep the API sane... 13:33
13:33 smtms joined
ruoso @a := @b is ___RESOLVE...___('@a').STORE(___RESOLVE...___('@b').FETCH()) 13:33
@a.foo is ____RESOLVE_VARIABLE_NAME___('@a').FETCH.foo 13:34
13:34 iblechbot joined
ruoso $a.foo is ____RESOLVE_VARIABLE_NAME___('$a').FETCH.FETCH.foo 13:34
moritz_ is missing the ___METHOD_DISPATCH for calling foo ;-)
ruoso well... if we're going that way... we're missing the __METHOD_DISPATCH for the __RESOLVE...__ also 13:35
;)
but you think I got my sanity back?
moritz_ no, that's lost forever ;) 13:36
ruoso heh 13:37
which is the syntax for looking for a variable by name in p6? 13:39
does that exposes the variable container itself? 13:40
pmurias ruoso: you should be able to do @a.STORE(...) or equivalent
ruoso pmurias, STORE doesn't seem to be part of the Array API 13:41
pmurias how can i assing multiple values into an array? 13:42
to get a variable by name you can use ::{'name'} 13:43
S03:1734 13:44
where is the Array API defined? 13:45
ruoso S29
pmurias seems to miss postifx:<[]> at least 13:46
ruoso: the ___RESOLVE_VARIABLE_NAME___ seems to be some sort of method on the current lexical pad 13:49
ruoso yes..
::{'$name'} is that same thing? or is that only for package variables 13:50
moritz_ only for package vars iirc, same as in p5
pmurias no 13:51
moritz_ although I'm not entirely sure, because you can access pseudo-packages like ::OUTER
which are lexical pad
ruoso MY is optional to limit the lookup 13:52
pmurias it's S02:1734
he null pseudo-package is reserved to mean the same search list as an ordinary
ruoso ::('$foo') looks up for any variable visible by this scope
pmurias name search 13:53
ruoso ::('$MY::foo') looks only for variable defined in this scope
::('MY::$foo') actually
and ::('OUR::$foo') looks only for package variables 13:54
so....
the last question is now...
does ::('...') returns the container itself?
pmurias yes
or rather no ;) 13:55
ruoso so @a := @b is the same as ::('@a').STORE(::('@b').FETCH())
pmurias looks reasonable
ruoso oh... actually it looks like I have to imply the context when using :: 13:56
it seems that the above code is not legal...
pmurias use ::<@a> then
ruoso although I would advocate it for accessing the container itself
pmurias, I mean It should have a sigil before 13:57
$::<@a>
instead of
::<@a>
pmurias no
::<@a> is legal
[particle] :: is a sigil, and ::() is an operator
pmurias it's a diffrent thing

just like a module implies a package
ruoso a syntatically-defined-class implies a package
PerlJam or perhaps "class does package"
ruoso a programatically-defined-class doesn't
a foreign-language-class also doesn't imply a package 15:49

15:49 alanhaggai_ joined

there's no point in having them at all (again, except for syntax)
pmurias you mean of having a distinction?
ruoso in the runtime sense...
the difference is that method invocation is different from sub invocation 16:06
moritz_ really? isn't method invocation just a sub invocation with a fixed 'self'? 16:07
16:07 sscaffidi joined
ruoso but method invocation implies OO semantics (inheritance and stuff) 16:07
sub invocation doesn't
and I think that's the purpose of submethod, which is a sub that have a fixed self 16:08
moritz_ wonders why ruoso unifies everything but can't unify method and sub calls
Grand Unified Perl 6 of Everything
PerlJam moritz_: what's the "self" in a sub call.
ruoso moritz_, because there must be some way of differentiating them...
PerlJam ?
ruoso because sub doesn't inherit
moritz_ PerlJam: dunno, never really thought of it 16:09
16:09 Southen_ joined
PerlJam moritz_: if you can come up with a good enough answer I may be swayed towards believing the unification of subs and methods is possible and maybe even desirable. 16:09
moritz_ PerlJam: maybe the package? 16:10
but I'm too distracted to actually think it through
(and I lack OO knowledge for it)
[particle] module Foo { sub new(...) { ... } }; my $x = Foo.new; # can this work?
PerlJam ruoso: subs not inheriting is easy though. Just make sure whatever class the sub belongs to doesn't have a parent.
ruoso [particle], yes... but in theory, it's not inheritable 16:11
PerlJam, the problem is when you mix a module with a class
[particle] ruoso: are you sure you don't have to call Foo::new? 16:12
ruoso [particle], I am... method dispatch falls back to subroutine dispatch, placing the invocant as first argument 16:13
[particle] ah, right. ok.

diakopter my point is that even though backward compatibility is broken, as TimToady said, the /usr/bin/perl that implements Perl 6 must be able to run Perl 5 as well. And the ability to import (at least many) Perl 5 modules, whether with perl5 embedded or linked or caged or virtualized or whatever, kindof makes the broken backward compatibility a non-issue. 16:47

ruoso we have too many modules that uses XS
that's not going away
avar No I mean the part about 5.12 and p5 being morphed
17:24 smtms left
ruoso there are already tricks inside p5 to implement method dispatching as new OPs 17:25
xinming ruoso: What I believe is, we might have a perl 5 implementation based on bootstraped perl 6. ;-)
ruoso xinming, p5 has too much magic to be re-implemented
and having alternative dispatchings in the interpreter is the key of merging the execution of different interpreters
xinming and the perl 6 is bootstraped by perl 5. so, the original perl 5 still lives, but with changed role. 17:26
well, just guessing. :-)
ruoso TimToady pointed that there are some parts of p5 that uses the C stack... once that is fixed, and different dispatching mechanisms can be integrated in p5 17:27
we could have the execution being switched from p5 and, i.e., smop
without extra overhead
xinming ruoso: from your words, IMHO It'll probably take over 6 year to have a useful perl 6. >_< 17:29
ruoso xinming, not really...
you'll just have /usr/bin/rakudo, /usr/bin/smop, /usr/bin/perl6 17:30
xinming ruoso: well, Just my logic. you said about 5.12. :-D
ruoso the point is... it's not the same runtime, therefore, it's not the same language...
at the point we have perl 6 runtime done, we can start interoperating perl5 with perl6 17:31
(actually we don't need to wait before we start it...)
but there are some important differences in the p5 interpreter for this 'runtime merge' to work well... 17:32
diakopter ponders
ruoso we'll probably have the p6 implementations successfully embedding p5 and vice-versa
but that won't mean that we can have /usr/bin/perl pointing to a perl6 implementation 17:33

ruoso Auzon, well... but that type of cast is expected to be system dependent anyway 17:40
I could even argue that it deserves a warning
Auzon Mine gives 18446744073709551615, since I'm running 64 bit. 17:41
But yeah, a warning would make sense.
moritz_ I don't think any implementation does warnings yet 17:42
Auzon %e, %f, %g, and some others could benefit from using regexes with testing, but I'm uncertain how stable regexes are across implementations 17:43
moritz_ Auzon: do it anyway. They will stabilize
Auzon alright. 17:47
[particle] that's what fudge is for! 17:53
moritz_ always thought that fudge was for eating ;) 17:54

[particle] perl 6 compilers have to eat, too 17:54
moritz_ and test suite maintainers ;) 17:55
moritz_ prepares in #perl6-soc report
ruoso but about interoperating p5 and p6... I'm curious to see how SMOP::P6Opaque+Moose::MetaInstance::SMOP::P6Opaque will behave in p5 (once it's implemented in SMOP and embeded in p5) 17:56
stevan_ ruoso: is there any p5 work involved in your SMOP grant :) 17:57
Auzon Out of curiosity, is it feasible to reimplement P5 regexes (minus code execution) in Parrot?
ruoso stevan_, nope... but it shouldn't be hard after the grant work is finished...
moritz_ Auzon: surely much more feasible than ordinary perl 5, and I think a subset is already done
Auzon: perl 5 regexes are tested quite thoroughly 17:58
stevan_ ruoso: I am specifically wondering if your design allows for possibly replacing some of the Moose/MOP internals with some of the SMOP goodness
ruoso stevan_, in theory yes.
stevan_ since SMOP is based (somewhat) on MO, there is perhaps enough commonality in the underlying designs
rakudo_svn r28061 | pmichaud++ | [rakudo]: 17:59

stevan_ and in the lower level components
ruoso stevan_, SMOP goes to the same abstraction level that MO....
nothingmuch was my zen master during this base design ;)
[particle] Auzon: PGE already has a Perl5Regex front end, but it hasn't been hooked up to rakudo yet
stevan_ re: Moose::MetaInstance::SMOP::P6Opaque - there is no some prior art on meta-instance extensions (MooseX::InsideOut and MooseX::GlobRef), so you might want to take a look :) 18:00

stevan_ ruoso: ah, ok 18:01
I will write a letter to the state department asking for them to pick you up, you might have to stay in cuba a little while though
ruoso stevan_, but about the metainstance... I would need SMOP and SMOP::P6Opaque p5 modules first ;)
stevan_, heh 18:02
stevan_, that after finishing the grant work (which have p6opaque as the major milestone)
stevan_ ruoso: well if you make them decoupled enough, couldnt we maybe re-use the C code for SMOP::p6opaque?
ruoso stevan_, sure sure... the idea is really to embed smop inside p5 18:03
stevan_ :)
ruoso I'm curious on how the polymorphic-eval thing will behave with p5
stevan_ not very well I suspect
ruoso there are some tricks involving new OP definitions... 18:04
stevan_ although you should talk to clkao and nothingmuch about their recent perlguts diving
ruoso that should be saner to do than trying with XS
stevan_ yes
nothingmuch was also playing with LLVM and p5 recently too, had some interesting results
ruoso interoperating them?
stevan_ compiling perl with LLVM
ruoso ah... ok...
stevan_ gcc-llvm to be exact
was faster then native compile (according to perlbench) 18:05
and llvm bytecode too
pugs_svnbot r20653 | diakopter++ | [yap6]
r20653 | diakopter++ | updated ROADMAP & TODO - the ROADMAP is more interesting.
stevan_ he can explain it much better then I can,. but it sounded very interesting 18:06
ruoso indeed ,it sounds
diakopter ruoso: have you seen libFIRM
ruoso diakopter, nope...
diakopter take a look sometime... 18:07
ruoso stevan_, what worries me more is if the missing stacklessness in p5 won't be a major problem interacting with smop
stevan_ diakopter: sounds not unsimilar to ML-RISC
missing stacklessness? 18:08
diakopter: basically, build a intermedite graph repr and then apply aggresive optimizations to it
diakopter oh, I didn't realize they'd released a free c-frontend
ruoso stevan_, I'm not completely aware of it yet... TimToady told me some parts of p5 are not stackless (in the C stack)
stevan_ hmm... i am no perlguts expert, but as far as I am aware the optree is stackless 18:09

Auzon The difference between join(',', $foo) and $foo.join(',') seems odd. 23:55
TimToady yes, I think so too 23:56
so maybe join needs to be more like elems
Auzon It would be easier in many regards (especially for explaining) if $foo.bar(', 23:57
TimToady basically, I think Object should probably define default methods that are biased to particular types
Auzon if $foo.bar(',') was equal to bar(',', $foo) or something similar
TimToady much like $a+$b is most generically coercing to numeric
so too the most generic .join should presume a list 23:58
more specific types may, of course, override that
23:59 meppl left
pmichaud interestingly, S29 doesn't define 'join' on lists 23:59
