tbrowder | hi, asking an opinion on rakupod 2.0: if one writes a pod renderer for a specific use, would it be okay to NOT follow the prescribed conventions for tag style. so we could, say, use all lower-case tags which are said to be reserved and not for the user's to define | 11:42 | |
(i can't imagine i would refefine any existing use by the core, which could be disastorous.) | 11:45 | ||
*redefine | |||
[Coke] | rakupod== rakudoc? | 11:49 | |
tbrowder | yes | ||
[Coke] | I know finanalyst & lizmat were involved in design discussions, I'd definitely get their input | ||
tbrowder | ok | 11:50 | |
[Coke] | I added another comment on #4569 that consolidates some things we said previously, hope that helps | 11:52 | |
tbrowder | i will look. thnx, i'm not trying to be a grinch | 11:53 | |
is there a separate channel for rakudoc? | |||
[Coke] | nope - but finanalyst is not always on IRC. | 11:55 | |
(and most of the discussion for specs took place on github/email, I think) | 11:56 | ||
so this works, raku-dev probably also works. | |||
tbrowder | re #4569 i think Failure needs to be mentioned in the vicinity | 12:01 | |
ugh, now i know why i couldn't be a lawyer | 12:06 | ||
[Coke] | dies-ok doesn't have anything to do with a Failure. | 12:14 | |
it *only* cares about an Exception | |||
and in one case, you don't have one | |||
and there isn't a Failure here, even - it's a Proc] | 12:15 | ||
and the docs for run() mention that you get an exception if you sink, and a Proc if you don't. | |||
(it is similar to the operations that don't throw an exception but return a failure, and ugexe or I may have misspoke earlier in the thread and said Failure, if so, apologies | 12:16 |
