Petr how convert string to byte array? 01:20

Mondenkind .encode 01:22
ugexe all we've got left are bort arrays 01:24
Petr thanks 01:25
const char *string is Str in Raku? 01:26
I try to play with Nativecall
Voldenet yes 01:46
guifa hrm, found another big (I had a < where the C original had a >, d'oh) but still haven't tracked down the new-disp error 01:53
Petr Function(const char *str){}. Cant find how it use from NativeCall 01:56
will never work with declared signature (Str) 01:59

Voldenet discord-raku-bot: you can call it like that, but 02:24
keep the extern 02:25
Petr#9247: this works for me (boilerplate so I don't have to maintain two files and a makefile) ix.io/3BXL 02:29
Petr Thanks!! I try ) 02:30

patrickb tbrowder: I might be wrong, but I think jnthn has the intention to build RakuAST in rakudo/src/Raku and drop rakudo/src/Perl6 after RakuAST went live. Could be I confuse this with some other dir though. 17:06
lizmat yes, I think that's the plan 17:10

Xliff Has anyone seen this error before? 17:18
lang-call cannot invoke object of type 'VMNull' belonging to no language
lizmat that feels like a dispatcher dropping the ball somewhere along the way
probably better reported on #moarvm 17:19

eof multiple here-documents on the same line is a truly terrifying prospect when writing syntax highlighters 21:19

eof i looked into whether treesitter could handle raku for this, and it doesn't seem like it has the capacity to fully support some of the language constructs. 21:22
MasterDuke interesting, i'd wondered that 21:28
eof as-is, i currently have a string propertizer for emacs that can deal with the entire range of adverbs and quoting constructs (save for heredoc) correctly and I'm currently thinking about how I want to approach heredoc. 21:35

tbrowder eof: a proper heredoc handler for emacs would be most welcome! 22:44
as a hint, reading the Synopsis 2 on heredocs might help you see how Raku parses them 22:46
eof I had actually had a working prototype for heredoc built around a previous strategy, but rethought the way things currently work a bit. 22:55
the strategy described in Syn.2 si optimal; however, the current approach I am using in emacs is still a "dumb" linear analysis that decorates text and moves on. this is primarily for the sake of efficiency. 22:56
i think i would ideally store a parse tree and then walk that to decorate text. it would work better; however, assembling a quality tree in emacs would require almost completely implementing and maintaining a raku parser in emacs 22:57
i have wondered if the best approach is to write some raku that can spit out the parse tree for a file in sexprs and then emacs can work over that. the primary issues I can think of for this approach are that I'm not certain that I can easily get quality parse trees for invalid or incomplete code, and that there is potential for noticeable lag when updating the document - asynchronous execution of the raku code would prevent the interface from freezing, but font faces 22:59
would update slower than you could type
22:59 Merfont left 23:00 Merfont joined
eof perhaps i'll play with cedet/semantic and see if that is a good fit 23:11
and then there's the matter of that being stale 23:16
23:20 linkable6 joined 23:21 Kaipi joined 23:22 Merfont left 23:25 Manifest0 left
eof it looks like treesitter can pull of heredocs with interpolation, so that's promising. dealing with balanced parens may be a bit tricky 23:27
plus the wide range of possible interpolations that may or may not be possible
