Make too specific error checking less specific

Checking for a X::Multi::NoMatch is a code smell anyway, as that error message can be very confusing and on the border of LTA, especially for newbies.

Make IO::Path.parent(N) about 2x as fast

  - don't use UInt:D in the signature, it slows down dispatch
  - test for values < 0 specifically, and generate a specific error if wrong
  - use low-level loop instead of xx with .=

ShimmerFairy You know, I'm starting to think this 2013 tutorial on how to write your own language compiler in nqp is a little out of date. 13:43
From what I gather, this should work, but passing some "code" with -e falls apart: gist.github.com/ShimmerFairy/ffd0c...4e552a67a5 13:44
REPL works, though. 13:45
MasterDuke ShimmerFairy: yeah, it at least needs to be updated to reflect that nqp now defaults to integer operations, instead of num
ShimmerFairy Also, switching from *@ARGS to @ARGS like NQP and rakudo do for the moar backend just breaks it more. 13:46
MasterDuke assuming you're talking about the edument one?
ShimmerFairy Yeah. The rubyish example in the NQP repo itself does work exactly as you'd expect.

Question: if you really changed the name to Raku, how come there's no NQR ??? 13:51
lizmat Well.. that's been discussed 13:54
but it was felt that NQP as a noun, could well continue to live
and frankly, changing all of core and ecosystem fixing all of nqp:: ops into nqr:: ops 13:55
felt even more daunting
and NQP is still Not Quite Perl anyway :-)
ShimmerFairy That's fine, I was only joking anyway :P
lizmat internally, there's still a lot of renaming to do 13:56
but that's tentatively scheduled around merging time of the RakuAST work
ShimmerFairy Is RakuAST "macros finally", or "QAST is now part of the standard"? 13:57
lizmat hopefully both
jnthn Well, not really the second, since it's an AST that models Raku language concepts, where as QAST is far more low level 13:59
ShimmerFairy btw, I just copied rubyish's eval method from the Compiler class, and now -e works, so I'm very confused as to a) why NQP & rakudo need @ARGS and not *@ARGS for MoarVM, and b) why those two don't need to redefine eval()
jnthn But certainly "an AST for Raku that is part of the standard"
ShimmerFairy That makes sense 14:00

raku-bridge <Snoofkin> Revisiting jnthn's performance update last year, specifically regarding short-lived objects, I'm wondering how much progress has been made toward eliding Hash construction in object construction 14:30
timotimo that may not have progressed very much 14:45
i myself haven't touched the PEA implementation at all yet 15:01
github.com/MoarVM/MoarVM/blob/mast...pea.c#L275 - this "try_track_allocation" will see "if this is something we can potentially avoid really allocating" 15:02
it currently only has a path for P6opaque REPRs, which does not include the low-level hash kind that we'd get for slurpy named parameters 15:03

Simplify R:I.FILETEST_x methods

All of these methods return a native uint, and will throw when a path does not exist in some cases (the ones using nqp::stat) or just return 0. It does not make sense to check for weird values, when such values indicate a deeper issue.

Introducing IO::Path::Parts

  - takes a volume, dirname and basename into a single object
  - should replace List of Pairs approach used by IO::Spec::X.split
  - completely compatible with List of Pairs interface for now
Did not use the improved interface in IO::Path yet. Since this commit is spectest clean, it proves that the List of Pairs interface is working. Any ecosystem module out there should also have the benefit of this interface, which should probably need to have an official deprecation cycle.

Make IO::Path.parts test a bit less restrictive

It was checking for Map, but the important thing is that it does the Associative role.

Make sure IO::Path::Parts is also Associative

So that it can be used in IO::Path.parts as such.
