00:15:02FromGitter<raydf> Hello anyone with experience on reusing nim code for an ios objective c app?
00:23:46PMunchraydf, I've used Nim with SDL to write a cross platform thing between Android, iOS, and PC
00:23:56PMunchWorks pretty well :)

00:28:56FromGitter<raydf> i'm worried about gc usage
00:29:29FromGitter<raydf> @PMunch, do you have any repo or code sample?

00:30:32PMunchCredits to yglukhov

01:51:29demi-search is failing me, what is the module that is used to make DSLs in nim?
01:52:17stisademi- https://nim-lang.org/docs/macros.html I guess?
01:54:54*Nobabs27 joined #nim
01:58:24demi-but that is for nim's ast, what if i want to have my own?
02:01:36stisaI don't think there's a module for that, yet.
02:04:52stisaI guess you could use variant type to model the ast though, so https://github.com/andreaferretti/patty might be helpful

03:39:30zachcarterdo I have to make a custom object extending from that object or something?

08:21:58Salewskidone
08:22:23Araqno, it's quite a gotcha with an unclear solution
08:22:40Araqsuggestions are welcome
08:23:01Araq'let' means immutable binding and as you've shown it should produce a copy
08:23:08Araqfor performance reasons it doesn't
08:23:52SalewskiIt was not too surprising for me, but not really expected. So that behaviour should be mentioned somewhere.
08:24:30Araqwell I don't want to document bugs.
08:25:01AraqI think we need to bite the bullet and produce a copy here and have an optimizer that tries to optimize it away
08:25:21Araqit's rather hard to detect though
08:26:14SalewskiI think manual or tutorial says that = assignmnt operator has copy semantics for seq and string, so one may have wrong expectations.
08:30:56*libman quit (Quit: Connection closed for inactivity)
08:32:43Araqwell the spec is clear about this, it's a codegen bug.
08:32:53Araqor rather a totally unsound optimization
08:33:00Araqthat I've come to rely on... :-)

08:59:58FromGitter<Varriount> Well, either 'let' needs to make a copy, or the immutability checks needs to be stricter.
09:01:24FromGitter<Varriount> Then you risk about going down the whole "const" rabbit hole that C++ fell into.

11:54:10enthus1astis there a nice way to also let assert/doAssert echo the values of the test cases?
11:55:10enthus1astlike "expected: foo" "got: baa"
11:59:49stisause unittest maybe? https://glot.io/snippets/enoam8wj81
12:00:14Vladarthe most obvious way:
12:00:15Vladarconst cond = 1
12:00:15Vladarvar a = 2
12:00:15Vladarassert a == cond, ", expected " & $cond & ", got " & $a
12:02:33*Snircle joined #nim
12:08:10Vladarand slightly perverted way:
12:08:12Vladartemplate assertx(a, cond, b: untyped) {.inject.} =
12:08:12Vladar assert cond(a, b), ", expected " & $b & ", got " & $a
12:08:12Vladarconst cond = 1
12:08:13Vladarvar a = 2
12:08:15Vladarassertx(a, `==`, cond)
12:08:26enthus1ast!
12:08:32Vladaractually inject is unnecessary
12:09:00Vladarso just template assertx(a, cond, b: untyped) =
12:09:18enthus1astjeah thanks!
12:10:15enthus1astahh cond, very nice
12:19:34*Kingsquee quit (Quit: https://i.imgur.com/qicT3GK.gif)
12:22:39enthus1astit works but i have to reorganize the asserts for this. Think maybe this is solvable by an macro?
12:23:13enthus1asti'll try it with a macro
12:24:02enthus1ast(finally i have reason to write a macro :) )

13:23:38zachcarterthings are going good though thank you for asking
13:24:05zachcarterI just completely re-wrote the framework I’m building from the ground up, since I know a lot more about Nim now than when I started, and things are coming together very nicely.
13:24:09zachcarterhow are things going for you?

13:33:22zachcarterI wish I had gone CS but I was lazy
13:33:32zachcarterI’m paying for it now, but that’s okay
13:34:43zachcarterVarriount: a member that hangs out in here - rauss - he was also starting to work on a 2d game framework for NIm and I think I convinced him to help me with mine once I’m a bit further along
13:35:09zachcartersince I had certain features / things hooked up that he hadn’t yet - like bgfx, and the audio engine, etc...

16:28:20demi-what is the proper way to get nim code started in a debugger? when using lldb it stops on SIGTTIN and SIGTTOU when built with the `--debugger:native` flag and i cannot get my code to build at all using the embedded nim debugger
16:29:26cheatfatedemi-, embedded nim debugger, was experimental and now i think it deprecated but still exists.
16:29:39demi-right, that was my fallback
16:30:03demi-and since i cannot get past these signals thrown at the beginning of exec with lldb, i'm wondering what I should be doing
16:30:26cheatfatei dont have lldb to help, but i know it works
16:30:37cheatfatelooks like something wrong with TTY
16:30:54cheatfatemaybe lldb needs some tty specific settings?
16:31:52demi-i don't think this is an lldb problem, as i can debug any other C code
16:32:28cheatfatecan u debug generated c code?
16:35:26zachcarterI can use lldb file
16:35:34zachcarterbut I don’t use the —debugger:native flag
16:36:06zachcartersorry `—debugger:native`
16:36:13zachcarterfine*
16:36:37demi-ah, my bad, was able to attach and use it ok, must be something with lldb interacting with one of the libraries i'm using
16:36:54demi-are there specific symbols to breakpoint on to catch exceptions thrown by nim?
16:37:03zachcarteryou can do
16:37:04zachcarternim c --lineDir:on --debuginfo tools/texture_packer/src/texture_packer
