Skarsnik it's gone 00:08
geraud okay, so I'm sane. that's nice to know. 00:09
If I found code that used @*INC, is there a construct I should replace it with? 00:10
jdv79 geraud: i think not yet 00:11
Skarsnik $*REPO I think
but depend what you want to do
geraud Skarsnik: I just want to majke p6doc work. Right now 'p6doc Type::Str' croaks with : 00:13
Earlier failure:
Dynamic variable @*INC not found

also the '1AF4CBA7DE6DE70558B631FA6737B5B5C96C7FFA' is not so fun...
the offending line is : @*INC.map({CompUnitRepo.new($_)})».IO».Str.map({ /\/$/ ?? $_ !! $_ ~ '/' }).list).flat.list; 00:14

zengargoyle has a feeling p6doc is going to be borked for a while.
geraud I just wiped every perl6-related file from my system, build rakudo, cloned panda, bootstrap'd it and panda install'd p6doc. That's all I did. 00:17
zengargoyle it relies on plain *.pod files that are installed to the old moar-nom/install/share/perl6/site/lib/ file space
can a plain *.pod file even be a CompUnit by itself? 00:18
geraud zengargoyle: is there an alternative to p6doc?
zengargoyle perl6 --doc ~/.rakudobrew/moar-nom/install/share/perl6/site/lib/Type/Str.pod | less 00:19
:P
geraud Oh, I see... :) 00:20
zengargoyle i have long held unsubstanciated worries over the common Perl 5 POD usage of things like: Module::Cookbook::Index or Module::Manual::Intro type documentations. 00:21
and it not going to be easy to just ls a directory and less a file and read the POD when things are broken. 00:22
AlexDaniel
.oO( How many people does it take to introduce τ to the language? One to prepare all pull requests, three to merge these pull requests… )
 00:23
zengargoyle 'cause there's no Module.pm file anymore, its some locked up bytcode thing in a repo under a sha1 somewhere that has to be loaded up into the VM to be accessible.
autarch zengargoyle: if that stuff ships in a distro won't it just get installed like everything else? 00:25
Skarsnik AlexDaniel, 10 to agree on the spec 00:26
autarch and assuming it's installed there should be a way to write p6doc Module::Cookbook
AlexDaniel Skarsnik: well,
zengargoyle autarch: what stuff?
autarch zengargoyle: any file with pod in it
AlexDaniel Skarsnik: as far as I know the specs are not holy, but tests are :)
autarch given that the compiler actually parses pod now, pod is just more code, right?
zengargoyle right, what gets installed though is a .moarvm byte blob right.. you can't read the pod directly without perl6/p6doc working. 00:27
autarch right
it would be nice to keep a copy of the "text" version around too 00:28
I mean for everything
zengargoyle or when you get an error: died with foo at line 1 in blah... you can't actually look at blah.pm and see what's going on.
you get to hunt down the *source* of blah, install the repo or whatnot, find the right version matching the one you have installed, just to look at the source. 00:29
00:30 Psyche^ joined, Psyche^_ left
autarch yeah, sounds like a use case that needs to be thought through 00:30
zengargoyle it just breaks that niceness of dynamic stuff that the source is easily findable and look-at-able.
autarch yep
awwaiid In gist.github.com/awwaiid/7ae087830e...rse-p6-L21 if I leave in the { } I get a nice parse, and if I take it out I do not -- what is the empty { } doing? If this was a rule then I'd guess somewhitespace thing, but this is a token

Yeah, something is definitely goofy. I cut and pasted some of the code, and it is as incorrect as it appears (so it's not a goofy font issue, it's actually wrong) 00:38

japhb How are you inserting source into the WP post? 00:40
zengargoyle sorta seems like there needs to be a %?RESOURCE thing that's just a filesystem path for storage of thing the old way for stuff that if changed wouldn't break a compunit.. like docs/icons/etc.
zengargoyle will ponder more when the compunit stuff is more stable... :P 00:43

yoleaux 6 Dec 2015 23:34Z <AlexDaniel> ZoffixW: basically I care about two things: 1) Can I do async stuff? and 2) If one of the plugins receives a message and interprets it in some way, is there any way for it to tell other plugins to ignore this message? Because when making a bot you can throw in a bunch of stuff, but you probably don't want your bot to answer twice for some message if both plugins trigger on it. That being said, sometimes you want
it…

yoleaux 6 Dec 2015 23:41Z <AlexDaniel> ZoffixW: maybe there has to be some sort of big dispatch thing with priorities and stuff, I don't know actually. But basically the reason I said that Net::IRC::Bot needs some reworking was because my plugins were conflicting and I was unable to find any non-ugly solution to this. One simple example: you want your bot to reply to “MyBot: !commands” message and at the same time you might want it to reply to any 00:47
other message that was
6 Dec 2015 23:42Z <AlexDaniel> ZoffixW: not handled, e.g. “MyBot: hi bot” should answer with “Please don't talk to me!”. That's just something to consider, maybe it will give you some ideas for better implementation.
:D

Zoffix Oh
zengargoyle wow, is advent supposed to be light-grey text on white bg... terribly hard to read. 00:51
Zoffix zengargoyle, configure your monitor correctly :P
It's nearly black on my screen TBH
Titles are slightly lighter
And code examples are black (at least on this one perl6advent.wordpress.com/2015/12/...6-and-you/ ) 00:52
japhb Zoffix: It's quite possible his monitor just has a different gamma setting, which is a perfectly normal thing. Mac v. Windows gamma was a painful thing for a very long time, until image formats started specifying expected gamma (and the renderers actually honoring it) 00:54
The great thing about actual black and white (as opposed to greys) is they map to themselves no matter the gamma. :-)
Zoffix I'm not so sure about the "normal" bit. 00:55
japhb Zoffix: What OS and hardware are you using?
Zoffix If you can't see the difference between X shades of gray on your monitor, it's either a shitty monitor or it's misconfigured.
00:56 zengargo1le joined, zengargoyle left
Zoffix japhb, Bodhi Linux, GeForce GTX 970 card, Asus ROG PG278Q monitor... and the site looks fine on my $work box too, which is a Win7 on crappy hardware 00:57
japhb Zoffix: Who says zengargoyle can't differentiate many shades of gray? They may just not be the *same* shades of gray you see. Plus there's human vision; there are lots of people that have contrast issues, such that they essentially need to posterize to see it.
Zoffix Because if they were able to see that many shades of gray, there would be too many shades between the dark gray the text actually is and white :P 00:58
japhb Zoffix: Neither of those is a Mac, whose display hardware is configured differently (or it was; it's possible they adopted a different standard to match the industry, but somehow I have problems believing The Company That Steve Built doing that)
jdv79 what is up with having to scroll every code part in today's advent? 00:59
i gave up 1/2 way through:(
japhb Oh, and ... not everyone has a good monitor.
Sorry, I'm just a bit sensitive to people making assumptions about vision and graphics, given that I'm color blind, and I have friends with low acuity, contrast problems, you name it. 01:00
Zoffix I really doubt the boxes preferred by "hipster designers" render much differently than my $work box I use for design :)
I'm colourblind too.
awwaiid er... is someone going to fix the &gt; stuff? :) 01:01
Zoffix heh
zengargo1le imgur.com/59O4loH
Zoffix awwaiid, what is it supposed to be?
japhb Yes, but hipster designers often have perfect vision or even better-than-"normal" vision, and usually very good hardware, and they can have trouble realizing not everyone does.
Zoffix zengargo1le, weird. It's much darker on my screen
zengargo1le, i.imgur.com/khU5e99.png 01:03
zengargo1le i'm just going by comparison... majority of sites look OK to Fine... then advent is WTF? it's not like i complain about every single site. :P
japhb Both of those are actually *way* less contrasty than I have on my monitor. In fact, if someone hadn't mentioned it, I'd have assumed the grey was actually black. 01:04
awwaiid Zoffix: in the "Not Just Strings" section a lot of < and > are &lt; and &gt; instead 01:05
01:06 zengargo1le is now known as zengargoyle, cygx joined
japhb It appears the body text color is #666, which is supposedly a darker-than-medium gray. 01:07
cygx awwaiid: I fixed those already once (but messed up by replacing &quot; with ' instead of ", my bad)
then, ShimmerFairy fixed the quotes and re-broke < >
autarch I agree the colors on the advent calendar could be easier on the eyes 01:09
01:09 Zoffix left
autarch darkening the text would be a good step 01:09
ShimmerFairy cygx: goddammit, wordpress is the worst about technical writing :) (I was in HTML mode if it makes a difference) 01:10
jdv79 I vote for green or orange on black:) 01:11
cygx ShimmerFairy: will you take another shot, or should I?
lucs (high contrast)++
zengargoyle i read the post in my rss reader first and didn't notice any HTML entity weirdness...
autarch if we could make crayon syntax highlight perl 6 wordpress would be ok
jdv79 i haven't used crayons in years 01:12
zengargoyle and no contrast probs since the reader strips most of that away... only saw weirdness when visiting the actual page in a browser 01:13
ShimmerFairy cygx: if you can, great, otherwise I can get to it in a few minutes :)
(advent also needs a search bar, last I checked)
Or more generally, the advent site currently seems to be designed around "what's happening now?", and doesn't give any consideration to digging through its archives :) 01:14
jdv79 who does that? 01:15
i found it odd that some questions were only answered in the advent pieces 01:16

TimToady SmokeMachine__: no, it is impossible without time travel 02:34
yoleaux 6 Dec 2015 21:30Z <[Coke]> TimToady: if it's late enough to update our HEAD revision to v6.c
SmokeMachine__ TimToady: So, let's start working on time travel? Just kidding... but why is it impossible? 02:35
TimToady the context is not known at the time of the return
flussence that'd basically be reintroducing perl5's wantarray with all the complexity of perl6 smartmatching
TimToady you could bind it to something half an hour later
the best you can do is return an object that behaves polymorphically depending on context 02:36
s/poly/allo/
and while (as Perl 5 demonstrates) it's possible for a compiler to pass some context information in, in Perl 6 this would basically make multiple dispatch to the next call impossible 02:38
SmokeMachine__ but, is it needed to know the context on time of the return? shouldn't the context to be needed on time to choose the function?
TimToady yes, it's basically just never gonna work 02:39
suppose you call your bla function, and then want to call something else that differentiates on Str vs Num, but you don't know what you got back if you returned both things :) 02:40
multiple dispatch can only work in one direction, and Perl 5 kinda chose the wrong direction, in my (deeply humble) estimation 02:41
SmokeMachine__ but if i know the type of the variable that I got the result...
skids .tell jnthn Questions that arose while updating S17 gist.github.com/skids/fabd0304f40e24db33d0 02:42
yoleaux skids: I'll pass your message to jnthn.
TimToady it would be possible to predict occasionally, but it's not worth it
SmokeMachine__ TimToady: thanks for your the explanation 02:43
ShimmerFairy SmokeMachine__: if you called bla in any context that didn't specify a constraint (e.g. my $a = bla , that is without the type), it wouldn't be able to know. C++ has the same issue, if you're curious (C++ doesn't differentiate on return type either)
02:45 ilbot3 left
SmokeMachine__ ShimmerFairy: IMHO, that would be an error... but ok, I understand... 02:46
02:46 ilbot3 joined
SmokeMachine__ ShimmerFairy: I mean: call in Any context should be an error (again IMHO) but it should (IMHO) work when getting the return on the "right" var type... 02:48
(and probably a compiler error) 02:49
but ok, thanks for listening...
ShimmerFairy that's of course a possible design choice, but the issue in general is that there's no constraint on where to use function calls like there is for arguments (that is, the language enforces constraints on arguments, but doesn't/can't enforce constraints on where to call functions), as far as I understand it :)
SmokeMachine__ ShimmerFairy: thanks! 02:50
ShimmerFairy The way I saw it worded when I looked this up in C++-land went something like "because nothing says you _have_ to do anything with the return type, so there's no way to reliably differentiate on it" 02:51
SmokeMachine__ ShimmerFairy: that makes sense... 02:52

TimToady what is a subtest? 02:58
I think jnthn just made return work correctly, is all 02:59
return has always been specced as purely lexotic, but rakudo gave up on did a dynamic return, which is against spec, so jnthn++ fixed it
*on that and did
ugexe yea im not saying it was correct before, just curious what the change was. subtest is from Test.pm, and it takes a &code 03:00
TimToady if there isn't an explicit Routine declaration, return can't see it
I mean, it'll keep looking outward for one 03:01
and if found, that is the only routine that return can return from
this is so that we make no distinction between built-in and user-defined control structures 03:02
a dynamic return could very easily find the wrong sub to return from

robnox I just woke up, but im an odd one.. lol
census AlexDaniel I'm in urgent need of some mac help
i know it's the wrong room
AlexDaniel robnox: 7:17 AM, did not sleep yet
robnox I can help you.. step 1. uninstall OSX. step 2, install linux. ;)
AlexDaniel robnox: that's gonna take some time, but it's urgent 05:18
census robnox i can't do that because it's a school computer
AlexDaniel census: ouch… that sucks
05:18 znpy left
AlexDaniel census: anyway, what's your question? :) 05:18
dcmertens Hello everyone. In case you missed it, the NSF just released a program solicitation that I thought might be of interest on this channel
www.nsf.gov/pubs/2016/nsf16515/nsf1...=USNSF_179
census My mac has a flashing ? mark 05:19
the ? is in a flashing folder
i'm not good with macs at all. i usually use pc
is there a way to take the battery out and reboot ?
robnox sounds like fs corruption, I would try to repair the disk 05:21
dcmertens census, is this the bootup screen?'
AlexDaniel census: #mac perhaps?
census i don't have a repair disk
it is my school computer
dcmertens seconds AlexDaniel's suggestion
robnox fsck is your friend 05:22
census robnox what can i do with fsck ?
AlexDaniel “To force restart your Mac: On some Macs, press control-command and the power button or control-command-eject at the same time. On most Macs, hold the power button for five seconds to force shutdown, and then push the power button again to restart.” – or this? 05:23
robnox fsck = "filesystem check".. tool that can sometimes fix problems with fs corruption, it's ancient but i'm going to assume macs support it since they run on code stolen from BSD
dcmertens census, the only time I saw this on my mac was in bootup, and it meant my system wouldn't boot 05:24
if you're in the same boat, you'll need a recovery disk of some sort
05:25 rhr left
robnox now that I think about it, most of windows was stolen from BSD too.. lol 05:26
dcmertens robnox, I was just wondering about that

census AlexDaniel you are telling me that the battery is inside the computer?
adhoc well, for NT 3.5 and onwards, IIRR, there are articles explaining about why their implementation of ipconfig was quite similar to bsd 4.x 05:38

robnox census, what happens when you hold shift at startup? 05:48
census hold one shift robnox? how long? 05:51
robnox while it boots.. 05:52
that should get you into safe mode, which supposedly will automatically run fsck. if that doesn't work you will probably need to reinstall from media. that's all the pointers i'll give you, if you still need help try #mac 05:53
05:55 lolisa joined
adhoc robnox: if thats the case, then the license allows that. whats the problem ? 05:55
census robnox, do i hit shift once or many times? 05:58
robnox it didn't work with shift 05:59
i tried hitting it many times 06:00
robnox the problem is I can't say whether I've seen the windows source or not. and I've worked as a contractor for Microsoft in the past so I'd rather not burn bridges, but if you are curious google it and make your own conclusion 06:01

moritz math school teaching is notoriously bad at motivating 08:06
for me that usually wasn't a problem, but a lot of my peers struggled 08:07

El_Che moritz: that a classic. History at university level is all about relations and not about memorizing data. In my first year only 33% passed. 08:12

timotimo so we'll instead make a second channel that is populated only by markov bots to keep noisy people away from us? 09:47
RabidGravy :)
hankache if #perl6 is still manageable why make another?
timotimo we're approaching a point where suddenly #perl6 may become "unmanagable" 09:48
RabidGravy I'm actually surprised it isn't already unusable but I'm a cynic when it comes to people's behaviour on the internet

hankache how does perl irc function?
one channel?
timotimo the perl irc channel is a terrible place, if i'm not mistaken
Skarsnik Hello, I am for a #perl6-ecosystem channel too x) 09:51
RabidGravy haven't been in the #perl for years
hankache we can try mimicking what they did. if it is good
El_Che isn't this an academic discussion? Something for when perl6 is big? #perl6 is pretty cozy as it is
RabidGravy it's a different thing, most of p5 development is done on the mailing list 09:52

timotimo El_Che: either you have an "academic discussion" up front and know at least 5 ways that don't work when reality catches up to your fears & expectations ... 09:53
RabidGravy nine, just the person - you may want to check whether parts of what made %?RESOURCES work didn't get reverted by accident last night
timotimo or you don't discuss it up front, things suddenly happen, and you end up going with one of these 5 ways that don't work that you could have figured out in advance :)
hankache my fear is that #perl6 will not be attractive anymore 09:54
RabidGravy because it stopped working last night
hankache if a split happens
people want to hang out with the *big boys*
timotimo put some make-up on it. by which i mean, turn it into a "slack" chatroom
RabidGravy frankly I'll just return to my default position and ignore IRC altogether at some point 09:55
El_Che How do you make the split? what about non core-dev people that just want to program and do the ocassional commit (code, doc) for things they encouter after checking on the channel?
nine RabidGravy: I'm on it. May take a while though. Haven't had a coffee yet and was up late celebrating my birthday :) 09:56

RabidGravy yeah, I'm seeing the same behaviour (albeit with Sys::Utmp) which worked earlier yesterday 10:15
Skarsnik timotimo, add it in language/io maybe? it's a likely place where it interesting or a way to find it?
brrt good * #perl6 10:16
timotimo right. i can do tthat later. will be AFK for a bit first
nine lizmat: oh, that's to be expected! 10:22
Skarsnik Can I remove @*INC from the doc? 10:23
nine lizmat: I'm sorry! We do have %?RESOURCES now, but we still don't know how to handle the platform dependentness of the shared object file. Currently the META.info has p5helper.so hard coded which won't work on OS X or Windows
Skarsnik nine, you should have typed ressource declaration in the meta file. like Ressource : [ dynlib : "filewithoutext" ]. there is so weird way to find the extension (NC does it) 10:25
nine Yes, I was thinking about "resources": [ { "dynlib": "p5helper" } ] 10:26
S22 says on this: "If a leaf of the "resource" hash is a hash, it indicates files with special properties (such as being provided by the builder, so not part of the distribution). This will allow a good MANIFEST to be created from the META6.json information." 10:27
But in this case, it would be nice, to tell the builder, too, that this is platform dependent.
10:27 geekosaur left
nine Except if we want panda to guess that from the file extension. 10:28
Skarsnik I think everything that help distrib packager is better 10:29
nine Or you specifiy just the base name, panda notices that there's no file with that name but one with the dynlib extension added, so it automatically adds that to the name.
Skarsnik like rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126744
tadzik nine: thank you :)

How do I find out what the heck is going on?
Skarsnik blame nine 11:27
lucs :)
By the way, this procompiling, is it done for performance reasons? 11:28
Skarsnik *like his patch on http::ua* my $a = HTTP::UserAgent.new(:debug) # debug on stdout; my $a = HTTP::UserAgent.new(:debug($*ERR)) # debug on stderr; my $a = HTTP::UserAgent.new(:debug("file")) # debug on file;
nine lucs: yes 11:29
Skarsnik hm, how could I say to append to file.txt actually x)
lucs nine: Okay, but is there no way be able to see the source somehow? 11:30
nine Skarsnik: the :append flag to .open
lucs: what do you mean by "to see the source"? Rakudo does need the source to be able to precompile, so the source is available anyway
Skarsnik I mean interface wise? like having a way to tell to append or not. I could not bother since I can give you a IO::Handle but
gfldex rakudobugged as #126835
lucs nine: I guess rakudo saw it, but how can _I_ see it? 11:31
RabidGravy Skarsnik, I'm pondering changing that :debug on H::UA so that it can also be an object that has a .debug() method
gfldex Skarsnik: see: perl6advent.wordpress.com/2015/12/...-projects/
nadim gfldex: thanks, I'll play a bit and get back if I find out, or if I havent ;) 11:32
nine lucs: Debugger::UI::ComandLine does "use nqp;" twice. This may trigger a bug in Rakudo complaining about the circular module loading
gfldex nadim: for the time being you could .Str and compare those. I have the feeling that you will bump into problems in any case because of where-clauses.
lucs nine: Ah, could be. How do you (or I) find out that it's doing that?

DrForr github.com/jnthn/rakudo-debugger/b...andLine.pm # lines 3 and 5 :) 11:33
gfldex nadim: what do you actually want to do in the end anyways? I'm asking because the answer you be "Have a role noob!"
Skarsnik RabidGravy, if you are willing to do that, add a .Debug or something to http::Message x) for now I use .Str but it's ugly
nine lucs: I cloned the git repo ;) But rakudo also prints file names in backtraces.
lucs: pm files should usually end up in your rakudo/install/share/perl6/site/sources 11:34
DrForr ^^ for lucs - Looks like a tyop in the file but it could be an obscure requirement of Terminal::ANSIColor.
RabidGravy me-- # totally didn't test his %?RESOURCES amendments properly 11:36
lucs nine: Aha, I see. Hmm... Does each file there correspond to a single original perl file, or are they mangled somehow?
nine lucs: they are 1:1 - only the names change 11:37
nadim gfldex: I amm writing a dumper, either the class to be dumped implements a method for the dump or the dumper itself implements it. I need to know if the dumper implements it.
lucs nine: Okay. So currently, if I want to look at some of that source, I need to go throught those files and see what I can find? 11:38
*through
nadim gfldex: I agree that were clauses will be a problem if I just compare strings, it's already frustrating in the error message one get from P6 to not see the clauses. it will work for what I want to do rigt now though :)
nine lucs: unless the error message already told you the file name, which it should
nadim a super newbie question, why does map take a semi colon but for doesn't? I absolutely hated python semicolon, now I almost want it to be added to P6 for consistency. 11:39
gfldex nadim: if the dumper are all witten by you, you should have them do a role with that method and match against the role. Otherwise you may end up with some object that implements a method that looks like it might be the right one. 11:40
nadim gfldex: that's how it works
gfldex for is syntax, map is a method or sub
nadim gfldex: but the end user can also add a role, thus I need to know if the dumper has had the role added 11:41
lucs nine: In this case, it turns out that the error only mentions 'Debugger::UI::CommandLine' (which, ack'ing trough that directory you mentioned, is found in my "3982B8FE2[...]" file)
gfldex roles have identity that goes beyond their name, you can even hide the name with some anonymous role or by not exporting it 11:42
lucs nine: Would it be a good idea to have .../Debugger/UI/CommandLine somewhere be a symlink to "3982B8FE2..." 11:43
?
(...CommandLine.pm even)
lucs can't be the only one who wants to be able to easily look at installed modules code, can he? 11:44
nine lucs: we're using those SHAs because different distributions may contain files with similar names. Also it helps with file systems that don't support non-ASCII file names and it makes lookup of sources of precompiled files trivial. 11:47
RabidGravy I think I have detected a new variant of Godwins law in the wild: "... because the right wing media made you think that" 11:48

lucs nine: I understand, and it all makes sense. 11:49
RabidGravy nine, lizmat everyone you are all entirely exhonerated regarding Sys::Utmp not installing, entirely my stupidity
Skarsnik maybe have a perl6 --display ModuleName ?
nine RabidGravy: thanks 11:50
11:51 vividsnow joined
nine Skarsnik: or just a separate tool. I use perldoc -l to find the sources of installed Perl 5 modules. And I have a pmversion alias to find the version of an installed module. We could ship similar helpers with rakudo. 11:51
Maybe a p6mod tool that queries the repositories 11:52
nadim gfldex: I will look more into the role's identity. my problem is a bit simplified by the fact that the signature of my multis has a single element but even if I get all the signatures I need to know if the object being dumped is derived from on of those signature types. 11:56
DrForr There's a perl6 --doc flag, maybe 'perl6 --doc -MFoo' to look at Foo's documentation? Probably just meant to work on individual .pm6 files, haven't looked closely yet. 11:57
nadim gfldex: I honnestly think that it is better to eval the whole thing, P6 can handle it already, I am not re-inventing the wheel, and an exceptions can handle the whole multi with the right signature does not exist
are eval and exceptions terribly expensive? 11:58
11:58 RabidGravy left
gfldex eval is, exceptions can be 11:58
nadim thx 11:59

Skarsnik nine, do you think is there a way to exploit the compile unit with stuff like Mojo::Template6? (that allow for perl6 code in the template file) 12:12
nine Skarsnik: I'm not sure I can follow you? 12:15
Skarsnik Mojo::Template6 file look like www.nyo.fr/~skarsnik/story.tm . There is clearly perl6 code. I was wondering is there was a way to precompile that? 12:17
nine If you turn the whole template into perl6 code, you surely can precompile it. And without having looked, I guess that's what Mojo::Template6 does anyway 12:19

dalek kudo/nom: b668da5 | (Stefan Seifert)++ | src/core/CompUnitRepo.pm:
Fix "Circular module loading detected" failure with use Foo:from<Perl5>

When encountering a use Foo:from<Perl5> the Perl5ModuleLoaderStub first loads Inline::Perl5 and then calls CompUnitRepo.load_module again to try give the real Perl5ModuleLoader a chance. At this point "Foo" is already in the list of modules to load and would get added again, triggering the "Circular module loading detected" error. Fixed by tidying up the load stack before trying the second time.
nine Now there's only one of Inline::Perl5's test files still failing :) 12:20

vytas how does Perl6 know what i have installed, I just rebuild my perl, panda. and perl -e 'use Readline' gives me "[..]/dist/B6EB284194164A4B20F99B6D70B0E6CC6CCC5E18: no such file or directory" 15:00
lizmat cycling& 15:01
ZoffixW vytas, it's because its META file is broken. See this PR: github.com/drforr/perl6-readline/pull/2/files
vytas, pull it and install with panda install .
DrForr Woopsie. 15:02
ZoffixW Tun-tun-tuuuun
vytas ZoffixW, i appreciate this issue github.com/drforr/perl6-readline/issues/3
DrForr Merged.
vytas but why the hell Rakudo thinks I got it installed?
DrForr I've been focusing on perl6-ANTLR4 because I'm mentioning it in talks. 15:03
moritz vytas: because you installed it before?
vytas i did not, cause I couldn't because of that issue, so I nuked rakudo and built it again
ZoffixW vytas, yes, that issue can be closed now. The "Failed to copy '/tmp/.panda-work/1449234898_1/lib/Readline.pm6' to '/home/" is due to the wrong META, which just got fixed 15:04

ZoffixW shrugs
DrForr rubs a few neurons together... uh... good *god*. Yes.
vytas all i care is should i worry and report a bug - if so I need to know what to include in bug report, or should I just carry on and install Readline ?
moritz ZoffixW: it's $_ or $_.Str(), not .message
ZoffixW: my mistake 15:06

timotimo can't you get the original exceptino object out of the failure and get its message?

zostay so... is perl6 going to continue using an oldish version of libuv for the foreseeable future?
i ask because i suspect i've run into a bug in libuv that is causing aborts in my work with supplies when it tries to cleanup one of the threads it's using 17:09
lucasb I've been saying this for months now :)
zostay and by perl6 i actually mean MVM
17:09 TEttinger joined
lucasb I wish it updated to the latest libuv... but now, before the release, it seems risk 17:10
zostay there's always the point release ;)
nine Well we do have the spectest suite for the risk 17:13
TimToady which regularly blows up on threading things... :/
dj_goku is there a reason, you couldn't, git pull the most recent, build, run a roast against it?
nine TimToady: which could be a reason to upgrade if it helps with those 17:14
TimToady troo
dj_goku oh btw libuv has moved from github.com/joyent/libuv to github.com/libuv/libuv
nine Today's advent post made it into the lwn.net news! 17:15
lucasb nine: Can you give me a hand with precomp? If I install rakudo with 'PERL6LIB=/some/path make install', it installs the precomp modules into /some/path/.precomp . Is this intended/expected? 17:17
nine lucasb: yes, that's intended
lucasb nine: oh, ok. I wasn't sure.
nine lucasb: we always store the precompiled modules into the precomp store of $*REPO, i.e. the head repository of the chain. 17:18
lucasb nine: thanks 17:19
nine lucasb: modules are precompiled for a certain chain of repositories which satisfy the module's dependencies. If the chain changes, other versions of those dependencies may be used, invalidating the precompiled modules.
lucasb I'm still figuring it out this whole precomp thing. It just seemed strange 17:20
One example is: 'PERL6LIB=/no/permission make install' fails to install because the user doesn't has permission to mkdir that dir 17:21
nine lucasb: well we assume that PERL6LIB or -I or use lib (they're all the same) are for development purposes where you usually have write permissions. System wide installations of modules go into CompUnit::Repository::Installation repos 17:22
17:23 cognominal_ joined, xjrK joined, AlexDaniel joined
nine However we should probably make those precompilation failures non-fatal. That would probably be an easy patch for anyone annoyed enough to give it a try. 17:23
lucasb Another unrelated thing is that there are 3 repos: share/perl6, share/perl6/site, share/perl6/vendor. What is your opinion about making the first one be share/perl6/core? 17:24
17:24 cdg joined
zostay if you install a new version of rakudo, should it fail on old .precomps? 17:24
or even just rebuild the same version
17:25 cognominal left
nine lucasb: I would very much like that. Or even remove it entirely. What we have right now is nothing but a mirror of Perl 5's directory layout. 17:25
lucasb nine: ah, ok. thanks again 17:26
nine zostay: the SHA hashes in the names of precompiled files include the compiler-id which changes on every rakudo build. If you rebuild rakudo, it won't use those files anymore.
ugexe lucasb: i had the same problem... a read only network share where the modules can't use each other via -I unless they have actually been installed. it makes testing the validitity of multiple packages before installing a huge pain 17:30
zengargoyle can one say: PERL6LIB=/path1 make install; then move the repo: mv /path1 /path2/elsewhere; and then PERL6LIB=/path2/elsewhere perl6 ...; ?? 17:31
ugexe paths are hard coded in the byte code i believe

zengargoyle that's sad. :(
geekosaur not so good for staged deployment (binary OS packages, AFS/staged NFS, etc.) 17:35
jnthn Then...submit patches!
I've nothing against it being relocatable provided it's done in a sane way
zengargoyle strangely enough, my one Perl 5 contribution was related to relocation. 17:36
jnthn ;-)
TimToady do you count putting each path into a padded 1k buffer and providing a binary patcher as "sane"?
jnthn TimToady: I tried to binary patch Parrot like that but it didn't go too well :P 17:37
I'd prefer if we could find a better way, but I can probably live with that option :)

nadim hi, is cached is not implemented yet on methods, wouldn't it be better t have a warning (that one can hide somehow) rather than a compile error? This will mean modifying the code when is cached is available rather than just use it when available. 17:43
jnthn TimToady: \o/ 17:44
nadim: I'm going to make "is cached" experimental in the next week or so, and we'll get it fixed up for 6.d or something.
[Coke] nadim: going from an error to providing an implementation is ok. going from being quiet to dying is bad.
jnthn++ 17:45
jnthn We didn't figure out what the cache keying mechanism should be, there's a difficult to fix issue with its interaction with multis, and the method semantics need a decent bit of thought. I'd rather just postpone it and get it right than rush it now and live with it being broken forever.
nadim Thank you for the explanation :) 17:46
jnthn Also, this may encourage exploration of the issue in module space, and then we may get to pick a better solution from there :)

TimToady "use experimental" should probably be "use MONKEY-BUSINESS" or so 17:48

timotimo the thing is, the failure stores a "handled" flag, which gets set to True when it gets matched against and returns true 18:22
so if a "when" with the right type or a default (not sure how exactly that part works, tbh) checks against it, it'll be handled
when a check for the wrong exception type comes up, the flag won't be set

El_Che does perl6 has a similiar shortcut like perl5's moose for an attribute: init_arg => undef? (it made de argument no settable by new, but it generates a getter) 19:32

dha Which generates two different responses for me. 1) "huh. weird." 2) "don't do that" 21:05
Hotkeys Don't do what?
diakopter well superscript shouldn't mean exponentation if the base is also superscript
timotimo the rule that parses that should actually give you 32 for ³² i think 21:06
Juerd I'd say that if ³ == 3, then ³² == 32 makes sense.
But I'm not sure that ³ == 3 is sane
timotimo but it seems like fater the ³ it's satisfied that it has a number and then it makes it an exponentiation
lizmat feels to me a lone ³ should be a compile time error 21:07
vendethiel agreed with lizmat :)
Hotkeys I agree too

AlexDaniel dha: nah it's just that perl 6 treats all number-like things as real numbers, and superscript stuff acts like a postfix or something

RabidGravy MadcapJake, yes it is installing .so files, you need to put a resources key in the META.info

Juerd Oh, it's not 21:20
Why not?
₃ == 3
AlexDaniel I don't think that it should be
timotimo huh. 21:21
Juerd TBH I don't really understand why all these things are supported anyway.
AlexDaniel what if you write ½½ – what would that mean?
MadcapJake hoelzro: I don't mind following through, I'm just not sure what the next course of action would be. To me, it seems that really the problem is actually not being caught further up when it was getting obtained via that `eval` call (but I'm a Perl6 noob and a NQP n00b!)
RabidGravy I'm quite happy that I can't type these superscript numbers anyway so it'll probably never trouble me
Juerd I don't really see use cases for ⅺ
AlexDaniel Juerd: one reason to support weird digits is because ½ was requested so many times
Juerd m: Ⅿ.say
camelia rakudo-moar 328e95: OUTPUT«1000␤»
AlexDaniel Juerd: and if support that, why not the whole unicode? :) 21:22

TimToady that it can be abused is not a strong argument here 21:22

Juerd I'd expect digits of the same class to be composable, like how 4 and 2 make 42
lizmat but the composing rules for roman numerals are different
Juerd Yep.
timotimo now that i think about that stuff, it makes sense that we can only ever put one single "special" digit in a row 21:26
Juerd I'm not saying I like the support for roman numerals to begin with
I like it because it's quirky but it doesn't seem worth any CPU cycles or memory to begin with, it being kind of outdated and all :)
lizmat I think pre 6.c roman numerals should be considered a number, so not composable
Juerd Why have Roman numerals at all? 21:27
lizmat after 6.c, we could consider multi-char roman numerals to do the right thing
Juerd Or subscript digits
lizmat it came with the rest of the numeric codepoints
afaik
AlexDaniel hudo: Hmm, do you expect it to be a built-in feature? :)
hudo: I'm just thinking that you can just code it traditionally 21:28
hudo: like loop over the files, parse the filename, see if that file already exists… if not, add it. If it exists, then what you are seeing now is an older version
Juerd Serious question: do these things (supporting all those weird Unicode digits) cause actual performance slowdowns, and if so, is it something that's ever going to be optimizable? 21:29
AlexDaniel hudo: given that your file format is sortable, and it is!
Juerd Or are they practically free to support?
AlexDaniel Juerd: I don't think that it causes any slowdown if you don't use these things
Juerd: in fact, even if you use them, it is probably converted just once during the compilation 21:30
Juerd Does it noticeably affect parsing speed?
lizmat Juerd: I would think they only cause compilation slowdown, which would be unnoticeable when precomped
AlexDaniel at least that would make sense, I don't know the implementation
21:30 kaare_ left
AlexDaniel and even if it causes any compilation slowdown, then why not get rid of everything else… like fancy quotes, texas versions and so on 21:31
Juerd I would not oppose that
timotimo Juerd: i think we're just looking for the unicode property, so it's not very expensive
there is, of course, no run-time performance impact
Juerd I don't know if it's a package deal where if you support fancy quotes you get fancy digits for free, or if it's perhaps no performance hit at all...
I understand it's not relevant for runtime 21:32
AlexDaniel I think that it is not something you should worry about
_nadim is there a place where any, the junction, is examplified. wat I'd like to write is something like if any(@list) .name ¨¨ 'something'
Juerd What's ¨¨? 21:33
21:33 morlock left
jnthn char classes are things you can resolve in log(n) where n is the number of things in the char class, so the effect of adding more things that could be matches is increasingly less costly per thing :) 21:33
Juerd jnthn: Great explanation, thanks :)
RabidGravy you mean @list.grep( { $_.name eq 'something'}) 21:34
hudo paste.ee/p/CrpNj
Juerd _nadim: any(@list».name), perhaps?

eternaleye There seems to be a formatting error in today's Perl 6 Advent Calendar post: "will match multiple alphabetic characters ( will do almost the same thing, just with the addition of matching underscore)"
timotimo hoelzro: no, we shall never show people your ugly code! :P :P
leont I have a non Proc::Async codepath, and a Proc::Async codepath
eternaleye Nothing following the open paren
leont The former works fine
The latter give the above error with two concurrent PA's
With one Proc::Async, it doesn't give that error, but seems to hang

_nadim type casting, is it possible to cast an object to Any (the reason why is that there are handler for different types and I want an object of type xxx to be handled like an Any) 22:14
flussence (wordpress's php heritage is really showing: parsing something foreign in angle brackets? don't escape it, just silently truncate!) 22:15
timotimo _nadim: we don't have something for that built-in, no
22:16 skids left
MadcapJake hoelzro: I'm a bit confused, I have only done `make` and not `make install`. The panda I used to install the linenoise module is inside `~/.rakudobrew/bin`, is it looking for my module/so files in the wrong place? 22:16
_nadim timotimo: and not built-in? worth digging in or better to wait
hoelzro MadcapJake: it looks in all of the standard library locations, plus the MoarVM rpath 22:17
timotimo _nadim: you can create a class that forwards all method calls via FALLBACK to $!object."Any::$methodname"(capture)
_nadim timotimo: what happens if I say my Any $any = $some_class? is $any of some_class? 22:18
timotimo yes, it'd be of some_class
dj_goku timotimo: p6weekly goods to me. /me I still have a lot to learn in P6 land.
timotimo that's just a type check to see if $some_class derives from Any or not

MadcapJake right, i haven't; however I did build and install the linenoise repo, so it's available inside `/usr/lib`

[Coke] For a moment, I was thinking that it was related to nativecall, and that passing things back and forth between C & perl6 was a problem. (I've problems like that in the past with going between, say, sql & pl/sql)
hoelzro by that I mean, I would be awfully surprised if it didn't =)
AlexDaniel ChristopherBotto: ^
ChristopherBotto AlexDaniel: Thanks! 22:21
MadcapJake hoelzro: ok :) then I'm again at a loss for what's going on. linenoise the p6 module is installed, linenoise the shared object is available in /usr/lib, and yet Compiler.nqp fails to set @symbols. 22:22

leont Is there a reason why "Unhandled exception in code scheduled on thread X" doesn't give a backtrace?

MadcapJake is there first one where panda installed them to?
i.e., `~/.perl6/2015.11-347-g47d2daf` 22:37
ChristopherBotto AlexDaniel: Thanks again!
MadcapJake oi, I have so many versions in here and the one that perl6 is looking for isn't the newest one o_O 22:38

hoelzro |Tux|: btw, I was looking at incorporating your changes for IO::String, but panda-build and panda-test are broken atm =/
AlexDaniel MadcapJake: though the folder that you've mentioned contains some precomp stuff. It is a bit complicated :/
timotimo [Tux]: note also the little piece that basically says "god damn you, perl6 people, for taking away all the good people who used to work on perl5!" 22:39
hoelzro is it [Tux] or |Tux| ?

RabidGravy |Tux|, timotimo that article and most of the responses is an examplar of why I stopped reading perlmonks years ago 22:50
infact why I largely ignore the "perl community" 22:51
MadcapJake well it really has to be somewhere because my main perl6 install uses it and it works :P
timotimo RabidGravy: lol. for a really short moment when i saw the line end in "I stopped reading" my brain connected that with perl6weekly
RabidGravy well that too but hey ;-)
hoelzro ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 22:52
MadcapJake i wish modules were installed in a more obvious, accessible way

tony-o probably still has the ssh bug
timotimo which one? :)
insecure debian keys or heartbleed?
mr_ron m-star: subset ValidScheme of Str where IETF::RFC_Grammar::URI::scheme; class URI2 { has ValidScheme $.scheme is rw; has $.host is rw; method gist { "$!scheme://$!host" } }; my $u = URI2.new; $u.scheme = q!\\//!; $u.host = "?"; say $u
timotimo i think it's gotta be star-m:

timotimo yeah, you'd need to use IETF::RFC_Grammar::URI first

mr_ron I'm interested if someone has a way to make the subset work ... 23:52
timotimo i don.t know what ::URI looks like and what "scheme" is inside that 23:53
23:53 cdg left
timotimo you may have to do it like / <IETF::Blah::scheme> / perhaps. 23:53

mr_ron fantastic ... it worked ...
timotimo you can always count on me!*
