timotimo not sure if there's a better way; i would like shorter syntax as well 00:01
discord6 <theangryepicbanana> it would be cool if making a sub in a class automatically made the sub a static method 00:02
TreyHarris Well, an 'is static' trait's been banging around as a perennial proposal; hopefully problem-solving will be able to keep institutional memory, because I can't remember why 'is static' was a bad idea :-)
discord6 <theangryepicbanana> since that kinda already makes sense
<theangryepicbanana> well I mean having an attribute is cool and all, but it'd be ideal to have something as short as sub or method
TreyHarris m: class B { method foo (B:U: --> Str) { return "Bee" }; our sub foo(--> Str) { return "no bee" } }; say B.foo; say B::foo(); 00:07
camelia Bee
no bee
TreyHarris theangryepicbanana: you see the ambiguity ↑ 00:08
timotimo having a scoping qualifier seems like the wrong abstraction to me
the method is looked up the same way, it just checks the invocant type differently 00:09
TreyHarris well, I just did that because it's a pain to export and import on a single line...
I mean, it's probably not best practice for a class to export routines, but it's probably also essential to some edge cases 00:10
and multis are of course frequently "exported" one way or another
timotimo i think i hallucinated someone suggesting "our" for "static methods" 00:11
TreyHarris like, just now here?
I'm sure someone proposed it at one point--in fact, I think I may have written a reply if it was on p6-l showing why our subs are useful 00:12
discord6 <theangryepicbanana> perhaps a Ruby-like syntax could be used like method self.something(...) {...}?
TreyHarris Oh good gravy, about to search for that mail I was able to see T&M's latest--he's still hammering on .^name "lying" and why can't you ask a native exactly what signedness and length it is? phew. 00:14
discord6 <theangryepicbanana> that would however mean that pretty much every class with a custom new method wouldn't work anymore
timotimo m: my uint32 $foo = 9; say $foo.VAR.^name
camelia IntLexRef
timotimo m: my uint32 $foo = 9; say $foo.VAR.^methods 00:15
camelia No such method 'methods' for invocant of type 'Perl6::Metamodel::NativeRefHOW'
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
timotimo m: my uint32 $foo = 9; use nqp; say nqp::objprimbits($foo.VAR)
camelia 0
timotimo m: my uint32 $foo = 9; use nqp; say nqp::objprimbits($foo)
camelia 0
timotimo m: my uint32 $foo = 9; use nqp; say nqp::objprimbits($foo.VAR<>) 00:16
camelia 0
timotimo m: my uint32 $foo = 9; use nqp; say nqp::objprimbits($foo<>)
camelia 0
timotimo ehh.
TreyHarris docs say you can't
you can do over/underflow heuristics to figure it out
if -1 assignment produces a positive value that gives you your answer completely in one step; for signed values you have to suss it out 00:19
well, for ints. for floats it would be a serious PITA
timotimo m: my uint32 $foo = 9; use nqp; say $foo.VAR.of 00:21
camelia No such method 'of' for invocant of type 'Int'
in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1
TreyHarris rofl... never mind; searching my back mail, I see that I have explained 'our sub' six times since 2016, but each time it was to T&M. 00:28
I don't see "is static" ever mentioned on p6-l or p6-u. weird. coulda sworn that was a perennial idea 00:31

TreyHarris Do it Python-style, `method foo() is classmethod`? (I can't decide whether the Python @staticmethod is entirely obviated already or just mostly. I think "mostly", but the problem space is more than filled up by multis.) 00:36

nine theangryepicbanana: no, a sub is a sub and a method is a method. When I declare a sub inside a class it's because I want a sub that's visible in that lexical scope. I do that precicely because I don't want the class' users to have access to it. 07:26
I wonder if class methods really are so common that they would warrant special (short) syntax. It's not like we're Java where there's only methods. We already have our subs and exporting to make functions available. That doesn't seem to leave many use cases for class methods. Mainly those where you want subclasses to be able to override them. 07:29
Now a shorter syntax for object-only methods (::$?CLASS:D) would be very welcome. In hindsight, I'd even wish for that to be the default, but that ship has probably sailed... 07:30
Or not, we could still change it with a new language version 07:31

Add SetHash.set/unset methods

As proposed about 8 months ago in:
   github.com/rakudo/rakudo/pull/2942
Since nobody had a big objection against it, and I think it will make working with SetHashes much easier, I decided to just put it in
  (as the Pull Request had bitrotted).
Please revert if disagreeing.

Don't attempt to split ports from paths for for UNIX sockets

It's possible for a valid path containing a ':' to wind up as something else if the platform allows colons in filenames like this. Since UNIX sockets don't use ports in the first place, don't treat them as if they do.

timotimo gist.github.com/timo/6e8a259891326...4ae0d5d1fa - a good chunk of frames in the core.c setting are short: 7 instructions is the msot common, followed by 4 instructions, then 8. 14:13
there's even 137 frames that have only 2 instructions 14:14
the first few i found are called !LEXICAL_FIXUP_CSCOPE, i don't think i've seen that before 14:15
many have an empty name, though 14:16
oh, the numbers start at 0, so all the instruction counts need to be read as "off by one"
very many of the ones that end at 3 are !LEXICAL_FIXUP, many of the ones ending at 4 are the "execution of block eliminated by optimizer" blocks 14:21
if it's about 1.35k of the "internal error" reporting blocks we can save about 4 bytes each by not putting a return_o directly after the die :D 14:24
or are nqp::die resumable?
ok, they apparently are 14:25

AlexDaniel` I don't maintain camelia 19:54
