| 00:03:34 | FromDiscord | <yummy_licorice> It's a Wayland server library |

| 02:29:15 | FromDiscord | <albassort> i know there is field pairs but is there a keypairs for objects? |
| 02:29:30 | FromDiscord | <albassort> i need to get arbitrary fields by name |
| 02:30:00 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> `fieldpairs` |
| 02:30:13 | FromDiscord | <albassort> sounds slow doing it this way |
| 02:31:14 | FromDiscord | <albassort> i know there is an abitrary field getter, i've seen it |
| 02:34:29 | FromDiscord | <albassort> there are only macros |
| 02:34:34 | FromDiscord | <albassort> sadge |
| 02:34:41 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> This is at runtime? |
| 02:36:51 | FromDiscord | <albassort> yeah |
| 02:37:00 | FromDiscord | <albassort> but the use case could be evalulated at compiletime |
| 02:37:02 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> So then how does a macro help |
| 02:37:30 | FromDiscord | <albassort> i just want to have 2 objects, one and set all the fields to the same values if the names are the same |
| 02:37:42 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> So why do you need a macro use field pairs |
| 02:38:15 | FromDiscord | <albassort> thats a lot of iterations |
| 02:38:26 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#pasty=FurSMnza |
| 02:38:30 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> There is no runtime iteration here |
| 02:38:42 | FromDiscord | <albassort> thats a lot of iterations |
| 02:38:48 | FromDiscord | <albassort> at least like 10 |
| 02:38:49 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> There is no iteration |
| 02:39:03 | FromDiscord | <albassort> hm |
| 02:39:04 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> If you can point to iteration in there I'll point to a invisible pink pony |
| 02:39:20 | FromDiscord | <Robyn [She/Her]> In reply to @Elegantbeef "There is no iteration": Not even on the VM? But even still it doesn't seem like it'd be a major slow point |
| 02:39:34 | FromDiscord | <albassort> its not i just dont l;ike it |
| 02:39:35 | FromDiscord | <Robyn [She/Her]> If it is, probably should reevaluate your type instead |
| 02:39:36 | FromDiscord | <albassort> (edit) "l;ike" => "like" |
| 02:39:37 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> `fields` and `fieldPairs` unrolls |
| 02:39:56 | FromDiscord | <Robyn [She/Her]> In reply to @albassort "its not i just": ...then deal with it :P |
| 02:39:57 | FromDiscord | <albassort> well roll it back up silly |
| 02:40:13 | FromDiscord | <Robyn [She/Her]> that's all that can be said tbh :p |
| 02:43:10 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> In the end the most you can do is like a forloopstmt macro that does the exact same thing but with more code |
| 02:43:40 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> `fields` and `fieldPairs` are some of the best type introspection features of Nim, straight to the point and very readable |
| 02:49:56 | FromDiscord | <yummy_licorice> In reply to @yummy_licorice "Hmm so I could": yea as expected nimterop doesnt work |
| 02:50:23 | FromDiscord | <yummy_licorice> this was the output |
