| sorear | three18ti: I think this is not the channel you are looking for | 08:14 | |
| three18ti: this channel is a #perl6 subcommittee; it's very unlikely anyone should be here and not also there | 08:15 | ||
| moritz | I'll probably miss #phasers tonight | 14:48 | |
| what I did: | |||
| fiddled a bit more with exceptions, and hit namespace bugs here and there | |||
| tried to organize p6advent; please add your name and topic to github.com/perl6/mu/blob/master/mi...1/schedule | 14:49 | ||
| a bit of Buf and Socket hacking in Rakudo | |||
| brought Str.trans back (mostly), with help from jnthn++ | 14:50 | ||
| made Backtrace.new DWIM | |||
| EOR | |||

| jnthn | PREPORT | 17:25 | |
| Over the last week... | |||
| * Added an optimization for private methods, and compile time detection of missing private methods (needs --optimize=3 for now) | |||
| * Optimization to ListIter, chomp, substr, some IO methods | |||
| * Implemented wrap, unwrap and WrapHandle.restore. | |||
| * Fixed embedded blocks scoping bug | |||
| * Fixed various issues with Array.STORE, which got us back various spectests | |||
| * Upgraded to latest dyncall, to get Win64 alignment fixes | |||
| * Implemented .REPR macro | |||
| * Implemented passing/returning strings with native calls, including picking encoding | |||
| * Implemented support for very basic struct passing/returning to natives; just int and num types are supported | |||
| * Implemented support for working with raw, untyped pointers with native calling | |||
| * Updated NativeCall module so it works with the new native calling support | |||
| * Implemented "is export" for types | |||
| * Fixed containerization bug that caused the regex engine issues sometimes | |||
| * Created a branch and did some makefile work to start getting towards NQP bootstrapping with QRegex. | |||
| In the next week... | |||
| * More native calling stuff, including some array support | |||
| * Try and get MiniDB working with new NativeCall, unless somebody else picks it up | |||
| * Hunt down and fix more bugs | |||
| * Try and get some progress on the QRegex bootstrap | |||
| EOR | |||

| jnthn | ...so does anybody else have a report? ;) | 17:39 | |
| colomon | I do, I guess. :) | ||
| PerlJam | I report that we're 9 minutes late starting #phasers. EOR :) | ||

| colomon | I should have tried to get mine in before jnthn++'s, though, as mine seems completely fluffy in comparison. | 17:40 | |
| * Wrote gtk-mandelbrot.pl, which makes the mandelbrot-color.pl display to a window rather than a file. | 17:41 | ||
| * Ported ABC to nom. | |||
| * Wrote first draft of Day 1 for the Advent calendar. | |||
| Plan: | |||
| * Polishing Day 1. (Please help!) | 17:42 | ||
| * Giving gtk-mandelbrot an interactive UI | |||
| * Probably some ABC hacking too, as Grammar::Tracer looks to make grammar debugging -Ofun. | |||
| EOR | |||
| jnthn | colomon: curious, did you try Grammar::Debugger too? :) | 17:43 | |
| colomon | jnthn: no, I'm a little scared of it. :) | 17:44 | |
| jnthn | colomon: It's the same thing but with a bit more control | ||
| colomon: Basically, run up until a failure, or up to a certain rule, then pause. | 17:45 | ||
| colomon: Same output, you can just step through it rather than getting it all out at once. :) | |||
| colomon | sure, I've just always been more of a "get lots of debugging output" guy rather than a "command line debugger" guy. ;) | 17:46 | |
| PerlJam | colomon: where would you like commentary about Day 1 ? here or #perl6? (or would you rather the draft be editted by others?) | ||
| colomon | #perl6, I think, it's probably mostly off topic for here. | ||
| PerlJam: you can see the draft of it, right? | 17:47 | ||
| jnthn | colomon: Sure, use whatever works for you. I'm just interested to hear feedback on the two. :) | ||
| PerlJam | yep | ||
| ashleydev | jnthn: what's QRegex? | ||
| colomon | jnthn: thinking about it, G::Debugger may be more or less mandatory for really complicated parses. | ||
| jnthn: feedback on Grammar::Tracer is that it is awesome. You are going to do a Advent post on them, right? ;) | 17:48 | ||
| jnthn | colomon: yes | ||
| ashleydev: It's the regex engine Rakudo is using. It's similar to the one we had before in many ways, but this time supports LTM and is more efficient in a bunch of ways. | 17:49 | ||
| ashleydev | is it tied to parrot? | ||
| jnthn | ashleydev: We're not using it to parse in Rakudo yet, just for user's regexes. So the task is to migrate to it. It should give us a speedup. | ||
| ashleydev: Only the emitter. | 17:50 | ||
| ashleydev | cool | ||
| pmichaud | my report: medical stuff continues to dominate tuit supply. I'm expecting a break after this weekend, however. | 18:02 | |
| PerlJam | pmichaud: think you could squeeze in an advent calendar post? | 18:10 | |
| pmichaud | if so, it would need to be later in december | 18:12 | |
| do we have a list of candidate topics somewhere? | |||
| ping me again about it at next #phasers | 18:13 | ||
| I can give a definitive "yes, this date" or "no, can't do it" then. | |||
| PerlJam | ok | 18:14 | |
| pmichaud: topics are at github.com/perl6/mu/blob/master/mi...instorming | 18:15 | ||
| pmichaud | okay, got it :) | 18:16 | |
| thanks | |||
| moritz | o/ | 18:26 | |
| pmichaud: it's also OK to claim a day without a fixed topic yet | |||
| and additional topics are also very welcome | |||
| pmichaud | I don't want to claim a day until I'm certain I can follow through on it :) | ||
| (or that we have a backup plan in place) | 18:27 | ||
| anyway, I expect I'll be able to write a post and will know what to write about by next week :) | |||
| TimToady | whoops, missed #phasers while re-speccing Failure... | 18:37 | |
| jnthn | fail | 18:38 | |
| ;) | |||
| PerlJam | TimToady: can you spec an "epic" sub to enhance fail? | 18:39 | |
| TimToady | maybe epic-fail is just throw | 18:40 | |
| sorear | post-report: DID: released niecza v12. talked about concurrency and stuff. figured out the last snag in Unicode support. wrote a release guide. WILL DO: see announce.v12 EOR | 18:43 | |
| Util | Post-report (works-in-progress; no commits yet): | 18:50 | |
| * Implementing RosettaCode Hofstadter_Q_sequence as a ... sequence. | |||
| * Adding .min .max .end methods to Niecza for RosettaCode use. | |||
| $WORK on-site all next week. will probably miss #phasers. Will attempt pre-report then. | 18:51 | ||
| EOR | |||
