I'm having some issues with multi dispatch and have a question. Might there be some caching done there? I use a multi dispatch some 4 times in a bit of test code I wrote and have a multi dispatch A and B. If I run A-A-B-A, it works just fine. If I run B-A-B-A it doesn't. Can someone tell how the last A doesn't run properly? 22:41
22:48 abraxxa-home left
ab5tract Xliff: I think a bit of code to review might go a long way in this case 22:55
Xliff Yeah. Was afraid you might say that. The problem is that it's all unreleased and I'm still separating much of it from $dayJob code.
So until I get it released, I might need to find a workaround. I was hoping someone just knew if raku cached multis. 22:56
lizmat the call site of a method call will cache the candidate to be used depending on the capture it receives 23:08
it's been pretty good at that so far, but maybe there are still bugs lurking there 23:09
also: is this single threaded or multi threaded?
Xliff Single 23:25
The workaround turned out to be to create a new object that was retrieved by the int version of the record and use that. 23:26
lizmat: BTW - Loved your more recent article. Was a nice write up about how to speed up some things. All of these bits and pieces we might want to collect into a guide or something. 23:27

timo1 the dispatcher stuff is pretty cool but if you don't already know what exactly you're looking for, not exactly easy to grok. there's one option that dumps every "activity" of the dispatcher logic, but since dispatchers cover things from boolifying over type checking to deconting and finally method lookups and invocations ... well, if you have a raku program and you run it with the logging turned on 23:40
you'll be swimming in output in a matter of milliseconds :)
Xliff Suspected as much. 23:41
timo1 good(?) news though, you can step through the dispatcher code with App::MoarVM::Debug, but without a facility to make outputting "the value of lexical X" after every step trivial, you'll be typing up a storm before you learn much of anything 23:42
plus, almost all variables are optimized into locals instead of lexicals in most of the dispatchers thanks to the nqp optimizer being allowed to do a lot more than the raku one ... and you don't get to look at those in the debugger either
this general topic is something i would like to give some thought to 23:44
there's no reason why the remote debug api shouldn't be able to inspect some amount of information about dispatchers 23:45
the debug logging stuff is a compile time switch, but there's no reason why it couldn't be filtered or turned on and off at runtime either 23:48
(i assume it's compile time because it's a rather hot code path that we don't want to waste time checking for "debug on?" on or something, but i don't have measurements or anything)
.o( did anyone say ... self-modifying code? ) 23:50
Xliff I've been saying that. Was hoping we could use RakuAST to accomplish this. 23:51
timo1 oh, the part i'm refering to actually lives inside moarvm, so it's written in C
Xliff However, I'm not so sure about how easy it would be. If we have an existing AST, could we modify it like we do the Web DOM?
timo1 you've been saying what exactly? 23:52
Xliff Oh. Wouldn't writing self-modifying code in C basically turn into an AST anyways>
timo: I've been saying that, with RakuAST, raku could be self-modifying. 23:53
timo1 i'm sure there's different ways to go about it, some more ast like and some less ast like?
Xliff Although aren't RakuAST nodes immutable once created? 23:54
timo1 i haven't looked very deeply into rakuast yet, but i imagine the trickier question might be how you can cause something that was created from a piece of rakuast tree to be "updated" whenever you make changes, whether it's a "make a clone of the whole thing with some modifications" or "modify he nodes in-place" 23:56
Xliff Exactly!
timo1 like, for anything routine-like we'd have turned the rakuast into moar bytecode and that would then have already become what we attach to the object in question?
Xliff Of course, this might not be a question until RakuAST has been completed. 23:57
But if we were smart, wouldn't we just associate the non-executed AST with the bytecode? We'd clone the non-executed AST and then convert the clone to bytecode and then just drop the clone once done. 23:58
timo1 do you know about the different phases a rakuast goes through during compilation? something like binding or linking or so? i seem to recall that's an important part that's new and that makes things better compared to the previous design based on the World class
Xliff I would expect the act of generating bytecode would make the AST immutable.
Nope. I just have a basic understanding of the concept. Would love to dive in, though. 23:59
