| 05:09:10 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> the cdecl might be the issue |
| 05:09:17 | FromDiscord | <impbox [ftsf]> for some reason i assumed importc would not generate C code for it since it presumably already exists in C |

| 06:36:12 | FromDiscord | <Rika> not again |
| 06:38:53 | FromDiscord | <Ricky Spanish> Pretty sure can just auto format the vast majority of the time not really seeing why this is a topic tbh |
| 06:41:55 | FromDiscord | <Ricky Spanish> Anyway, if I want to replicate a local nim environment to scale up a number of dev machines do I just need to copy my nim cache folder? I want that my locally compiled packages etc don't need recompiled if I basically create a new dev machine using terraform, I. E machine from scratch per build but with a cloned cache but I'm unsure if it's more complex than this from nims side |
| 06:41:58 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> People like talking about two things Nim has |
| 06:42:05 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> And neither are important |
| 06:42:29 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> It's always "space indentation sucks" and "style insensitivity is scary" |
| 06:44:03 | FromDiscord | <Ricky Spanish> True, close third also has to be why does nim exist when there's rust |
| 06:46:05 | FromDiscord | <Rika> why does rust exist when theres spark/erlang/every other language |
| 06:46:42 | FromDiscord | <Ricky Spanish> Agreed, same for all languages, there's ada guys we don't need c |
| 06:47:06 | FromDiscord | <Rika> im gonna legitimately get pissed off again if i continue thinking about this |
| 06:47:26 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> Except that ada statement is just true 😛 |
| 06:47:54 | FromDiscord | <Rika> are you talking about me or ricky |
| 06:48:22 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> Well only one of you mentioned ada |
| 06:48:56 | FromDiscord | <Rika> spark -> ada.spark |

Like a cult member talking about their life before and after they joined |
| 06:54:55 | FromDiscord | <Rika> yeah so best not to further discuss |
| 06:56:06 | FromDiscord | <Ricky Spanish> Agreed, so any advice on the nim cache problem? Can I just dump my cache on another machine? |
| 06:56:27 | FromDiscord | <Rika> i dont think |
| 06:56:31 | FromDiscord | <Rika> you can just do that |
| 06:56:35 | FromDiscord | <Rika> are they the same arch> |
| 06:56:58 | FromDiscord | <Ricky Spanish> Yeh same everything in basically spinning up an Ubuntu image with same arch and specs |
| 06:57:01 | FromDiscord | <Rika> i guess it doesnt hurt to try, see if you get errors and if you do wipe the c cache (keep the packages tho) |
| 06:57:53 | FromDiscord | <Ricky Spanish> OK will give it a go thanks |
| 06:59:42 | FromDiscord | <Rika> if theyre all the same like that then i assume its fine, but if OS or whatever differs that would deffo need recompile |
| 06:59:55 | FromDiscord | <Rika> because of conditional compilation |

| 10:20:53 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> I am getting errors. The node I am looking at is `Ident "moduleA"` but when I do `getImpl` I get this error: `Error: node is not a symbol` |
| 10:25:04 | FromDiscord | <Rika> Probably needs a typed macro and not an untyped one |
| 10:25:46 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> What would the type look like? |
| 10:26:21 | FromDiscord | <Rika> “typed” instead of “untyped” |
| 10:27:16 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> Ah, yes. I just did that but I'm still getting errors :thinkeyes: One second |
| 10:29:01 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> Hm so when I use `typed` then `getImpl` doesn't error, but it results in a `NilLit` |
| 10:29:45 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> which is weird, since the module is not empty. I guess it's not possible to get the implementation of modules then? |
| 10:32:21 | FromDiscord | <Rika> I think so yes |
| 10:32:32 | FromDiscord | <Rika> You usually get the implementation of functions in the module |
| 10:33:14 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> Darn, I wanted to have a macro that looks for certain patterns in proc names in modules and generate objects based on that |
| 10:33:56 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> so you don't have to write code for this in every module but just have one central macro that does it all. I guess I'll have to find a different way to do it :) |
| 10:35:06 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> Is there another way to look through the procs of a file without having to write all the code within a macro? |

| 13:38:08 | FromDiscord | <dom96> still confused by these |
| 13:49:27 | FromDiscord | <exelotl> I think it's like, --os:any supports every language feature using only a few standard C functions. --os:standalone doesnt use the C stdlib at all, and you're on your own (in more ways than one, as it's pretty much unmaintained) e.g. exceptions don't work. |
| 13:53:28 | FromDiscord | <exelotl> As I see it, --os:standalone --gc:none is still necessary if you want to write a kernel or something else where you have 100% control over allocations |

| 19:41:20 | FromDiscord | <Rika> why are you including instead of importing |
| 19:42:14 | FromDiscord | <yyoncho> I am importing it(I am new to nim terminology) |
| 19:47:05 | FromDiscord | <Recruit_main707> we have an `inlcude` keyword that is similar to import but its actually the same as coying and pasting the file contents in another file |

| 19:55:42 | FromDiscord | <Recruit_main707> yeah, when you said include Rika thought you were doing something else, thats it i think, if you had included and imported it you would have had some kind of error because you would be redefining stuff |

| 20:21:35 | NimEventer | New thread by Gcao: Dynlib passing value back to main app causes SIGSEGV error, see https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/8598 |
| 21:02:41 | FromDiscord | <JohnAD (John Dupuy)> So, if designing a new collection type (a ref object) that uses bracketed assignment (`[]=`), then that proc will need to be {.inline.} so that it can recursively pass by ref when being chained. So, if doing `a["foo"]["bar"] = "99"` then a simple proc with a `var` first param won't cut it because the ref won't be passed back properly. Sound correct? |
| 21:04:20 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> I believe as long as you have a `[]` operator which returns `var` it should be fine |
| 21:04:36 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> Based of the subject matter i assume this is in some reference to https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/8568 😀 |
| 21:07:47 | FromDiscord | <JohnAD (John Dupuy)> I didn't know of that thread. I'll read through it. I'll also experiment with changing my `[]` operators. To honest, I don't fully understand the impact of `{.inline.}`, so I'm reluctant to use it. Does it essentially make the proc an ad-hoc template? |
| 21:08:04 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> If the C compiler rules it should be yes |
| 21:08:26 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> It's not a guarantee just basically saying to the C compiler "Hey if possible can we make this pasted" |
| 21:08:55 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> So in the end if it cannot be inlined it's no big deal since there is no forced inline aside from templates in nim |
| 21:10:16 | FromDiscord | <JohnAD (John Dupuy)> Ah, so using `inline` could subtly kick me in the butt later in complex scenarios. I'll look at changing the getter `[]` ops instead. |
| 21:10:56 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> I dont think so, since the C compiler will not inline code in such a away to change the overall logic |
| 21:11:14 | FromDiscord | <Elegantbeef> But it also does tend to inline small procedures afaik |

| 22:07:38 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> Ok thank you, I just added it to the test nims file for now and I'll test if it works in normal compilation too |
| 22:57:23 | FromDiscord | <that_dude> Is there a way I can "intercept" a proc call from another file/module? I want to be able to echo some debug information about it when it gets called |
| 22:57:37 | FromDiscord | <that_dude> The other proc is exported if that matters |
| 23:02:02 | FromDiscord | <impbox [ftsf]> Can you just edit the other module? |
| 23:03:23 | FromDiscord | <that_dude> No because I simplified my example here. There is functionality that I would be able to add to a proc that does not belong in the other module |
| 23:05:00 | FromDiscord | <impbox [ftsf]> I don't think you can do that, you could modify it for the current module with a template, but it won't help if it's used by other modules |
| 23:06:25 | FromDiscord | <that_dude> Yeah, its used internally in the module I don't want to change, but the main module needs to do some extra stuff when that proc gets called |
| 23:06:36 | FromDiscord | <that_dude> F |
| 23:26:07 | FromDiscord | <dom96> In reply to @cuddlefish "Hm it doesn't seem": for your tests: `echo "--d:ssl" > tests/nim.cfg` should work |
| 23:26:19 | FromDiscord | <dom96> (edit) ""--d:ssl"" => ""-d:ssl"" |
| 23:27:17 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> In reply to @dom96 "for your tests: `echo": Yes I just added the switch to the tests cfg too, it works now, I just expected it to take it from the "main package" config |
| 23:28:43 | FromDiscord | <dom96> nim just looks for config files in the directory the file you are compiling is in |
| 23:29:02 | FromDiscord | <dom96> it doesn't check parent dirs and Nimble isn't aware of these config files at all |
| 23:29:20 | FromDiscord | <dom96> so yeah, no magic there |
| 23:39:47 | FromDiscord | <retkid> hey so i need to compile to JS But i cant find a good socket solution |
| 23:40:41 | FromDiscord | <dom96> what do you intend to use the sockets for? |
| 23:42:00 | FromDiscord | <retkid> sending and receiving |
| 23:42:12 | FromDiscord | <dom96> sending and receiving what? |
| 23:42:54 | FromDiscord | <retkid> strings? |
| 23:43:17 | FromDiscord | <retkid> data? |
| 23:43:55 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> In reply to @dom96 "nim just looks for": so if somebody depends on my package, they have to set this flag manually too? they don't "inherit" down package dependencies? |
| 23:44:09 | FromDiscord | <dom96> In reply to @cuddlefish "so if somebody depends": yep |
| 23:44:14 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> :/ |
| 23:44:46 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> That's not that great, it means it's more work to use my package since a user also needs to modify another file then |
| 23:44:54 | FromDiscord | <cuddlefish> Well, if that's how it is there's not much I can do about it |
