| Kaipii | > public void get_attribute_native(ThreadContext tc, SixModelObject class_handle, String name, long hint) | 07:19 | |
| what's with this weird signature for a getter? | |||
| get_attribute_boxed returns a SixModelObject, but this stuffs the return value in tc? | |||

| Kaiepi | it's from a jnthn commit, but a large one w/ little to say in the commit message | 07:22 | |
| .tell jnthn, what's the deal with SixModelObject.get_attribute_native's void return value? | |||
| tellable6 | Kaiepi, I'll pass your message to jnthn | ||
| Voldenet | get_attribute_native returns `long/double/String/Object` - to avoid allocating anything ThreadContext gets used to pass around the value to the caller | 07:45 | |

| Voldenet | this probably answers the "why" part github.com/Raku/nqp/blob/e01f299b/...java#L2770 | 07:59 | |

| Voldenet | (some callers handle the returned value directly without boxing it into SixModelObject, but I think the direct cause is this badReference being thrown) | 08:10 | |

| Kaiepi | Voldenet, i'm not sure it's entirely necessary to have the native_* members in tc then. the natives don't appear to be native through and through, so maybe a generic return value is suitable? github.com/Raku/nqp/blob/d372bb1e6...#L123-L133 | 08:30 | |
| if bound to one to begin with, that is | 08:33 | ||

| Voldenet | the only thing that I'm sure of is that it's likely avoiding allocations | 10:07 | |

| gfldex | m: say Date.clone; | 18:13 | |
| camelia | Invocant of method 'clone' must be an object instance of type 'Date', not a type object of type 'Date'. Did you forget a '.new'? in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1 |
||
| gfldex | m: my \Date = Date.clone; | 18:14 | |
| camelia | No such method 'clone' for invocant of type 'VMNull'. Found 'clone' on type 'Mu' in block <unit> at <tmp> line 1 |
||
| gfldex | Is there a way to get a clone of a type-object? I don't want to anger the monkeys. | 18:15 | |
| japhb | gfldex: Why do you want to do that? Type objects are singletons, yes? | 18:16 | |
| gfldex | I want to augment (with the MOP) but in a local scope. | ||
| japhb | gfldex: use 'but'? | 18:17 | |
| gfldex | That should work. | ||
| Well, it doesn't for adding another method new candidate. | 18:21 | ||
| m: use nqp; constant Date = nqp::clone(Date); say Date.new(now); | 18:26 | ||

| gfldex | I'm not happy that I have to decent into nqp-land for something so simple. | 18:27 | |

| japhb | Wait, you just want to *lexically* add a different .new candidate? | 18:34 | |
| That seems ... like an odd desire. | |||
| Can you help me understand? | |||
| gfldex | If I augment Date, I change the global state of a CORE-thing. That does not compose well. At some point there will be collisions with other folks idea of a better Date. By creating a lexical clone of a type (via it's type object) I can do whatever I please with that type, without of fear of collisions. | 18:39 | |
| At least it's my understanding of the benefit of having types represented by objects. We can do cool stuff with them. | 18:41 | ||
| Maybe having Mu.clone(::T:U: :type) (that delegates to nqp::cline) would prevent accidents. | 18:42 | ||
| japhb | gfldex: Ah, I meant instead of e.g. defining a new class that `is Date` or `does Datish` and has the added features | ||
| *Dateish? I forget | 18:43 | ||
| gfldex | My typong is rubbush today. I got a "summer-cold". | ||
| I shall have some sleep and dream of better Dates. | 18:44 | ||
| japhb | Heh | 18:49 | |
| Hope you feel better soon! | |||
