05:29:25FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Nah it's untested and mainly for fun
05:29:35FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I think things of quality need only be added to nimble

08:06:46FromDiscord<Rika> Then Nim isn’t doing that
08:07:02FromDiscord<Rika> What is switch f?
08:09:04FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Welcome to int literals, yes it should
08:09:31FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> So flywind deleted that literal message i see and matrix really isnt having anything 😄
08:10:18FromDiscord<xflywind> In reply to @ElegantBeef "So flywind deleted that": Yeah I understand the issue so I deleted the question.
08:10:47FromDiscord<ElegantBeef> Didnt propagate to matrix or IRC so i really thought discord was the crazy one this time
08:12:49FromDiscord<demotomohiro> @jmgomez If nim still calls backend clang/gcc with `-O3` when no `-d:release`, `-d:danger`, `--opt:speed` or `--passC:-O3` options were specified, it can be a bug.

08:24:01FromDiscord<jmgomez> In reply to @demotomohiro "Which OS and CPU": MacOs it's an ARM but Im using Rosetta
08:26:13FromDiscord<jmgomez> https://github.com/jmgomez/NimForUE/blob/master/config.nims
08:26:20FromDiscord<jmgomez> That's the exact fifle
08:26:32FromDiscord<jmgomez> In case you want to take a look (see how -03 is commented)
08:30:04*noeontheend joined #nim
08:30:37FromDiscord<demotomohiro> Using rosetta means Nim runs as cpu arch is amd64?
08:31:36FromDiscord<jmgomez> Yes
08:32:11FromDiscord<jmgomez> i386
08:41:13FromDiscord<demotomohiro> `nueConfig.targetConfiguration` can be `Shippig`?
08:41:56FromDiscord<demotomohiro> `Shipping`
08:47:08FromDiscord<jmgomez> Nope
08:48:00FromDiscord<demotomohiro> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=403h
08:48:34FromDiscord<jmgomez> If I do set release (or danger) even if I have no opt, it wont compile due to the PCH not having OPTIMIZATIONS defined
08:51:37FromDiscord<demotomohiro> Above code runs at Nim's compile time and it should echo before backend compiler runs
08:52:42FromDiscord<jmgomez> Im know, what Im trying to say is that I know for certain that I dont have any of these flags activated because they arent compatible at all with the way we have setup the PCHs. So it wont compile with them
08:56:00FromDiscord<demotomohiro> Or use https://nim-lang.org/docs/compilesettings.html to check accidentally pass `-O3` flag to clang via passC.

09:03:36FromDiscord<jmgomez> That applies to danger, release, etc even if I have switch("opt", "none")
09:04:00FromDiscord<jmgomez> Only way it works is by having switch("opt", "none") and none of the others activated
09:16:29FromDiscord<demotomohiro> I cannot test your code as I dont have Mac.
09:22:21FromDiscord<jmgomez> @geekrelief is working on having PCH support on Windows too. It may be reproduced there as well

09:33:34FromDiscord<dom96> In reply to @Elegantbeef "I think things of": nah, Nimble should get everything. Curated package lists are the way for quality.
09:34:19FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I disagree vehemently
09:36:19FromDiscord<dom96> That's fine. But in practice there isn't anyone to review the packages for quality and I don't know of any other language package list that does such a thing (likely because it doesn't scale).
09:36:32FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> A package registry should in my books contain software which is of a certain quality and function. Name sitting like the cargo registry has is the epitome of doing it wrong.
09:36:41FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I mean the people that should review the packages are the authors
09:36:58FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You dont need anyone to review a package, accept it's shit and dont submit it
09:37:41FromDiscord<Rika> You’re not gonna get most people to accept that
09:37:58FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Submitting to a package registry should be done for software that is some effort to write or covers a usage that will greatly benefit others
09:38:14FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yes i know rika
09:38:34FromDiscord<Rika> Who is to say whether something would or not benefit others
09:38:34FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It's my idealistic world and the view i hold myself to with package registries
09:38:36FromDiscord<Rika> How would we know
09:39:08FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Now without going through the package registry and insulting people I cannot say
09:39:26FromDiscord<Rika> That’s for you
09:39:34FromDiscord<Rika> For others it may still be useful

13:50:06FromDiscord<uncle jim> it happens when i resize it
13:50:30PMunchWell it's a bug in your code
13:50:39FromDiscord<uncle jim> In reply to @PMunch "Well it's a bug": hmmmm
13:50:55FromDiscord<uncle jim> is `SDL_WINDOW_RESIZABLE` not gud?
13:52:52PMunchWell that makes the window resizeable, doesn't mean your content magically resizes
13:53:02PMunchIf you disable that you shouldn't be able to resize the window at all I believe
13:54:37FromDiscord<uncle jim> In reply to @PMunch "If you disable that": ye
13:55:21FromDiscord<can.l> At least on fedora+wayland there is currently a bug in SDL which does not resize the window properly when using the hardware accelerated renderer. This does probably not apply to windows however.
13:56:25PMunchNah, that just looks like a good ol' forgot to redraw the screen to new dimensions bug
13:56:46FromDiscord<Korven> Hey all, it's me again. I'm wanna do a simple `fork` syscall in a Nim program, but have no idea how to or where to look. Any advice? 👀

13:56:55FromDiscord<Korven> Basically how to do system calls
13:57:07FromDiscord<Korven> In reply to @Rika "posix module?": Does it have all the linux syscalls? 🤔
13:57:19FromDiscord<Rika> if its in posix sure
13:57:32FromDiscord<can.l> In reply to @PMunch "Nah, that just looks": That is indeed very likely, especially since windows should be rather well tested.

17:33:59FromDiscord<ynfle> In reply to @neurocyte "What is weird about": In what way don't the types match

17:45:46FromDiscord<Korven> i mean

17:48:35FromDiscord<blashyrk> does nim have a first-party shared library (dynamic) plugin system? also, does the GC cause clashes when loading dynamic libraries? I assume arc/orc shouldn't

17:55:34FromDiscord<Korven> In reply to @ynfle "Transformer is not an": indeed, i failed to notice that
17:56:04FromDiscord<Korven> seems like it's a deeper type issue then, since changing the type of the table to a Transformer still does not work, it just seems to expand the type

17:59:55FromDiscord<neurocyte> In reply to @demotomohiro "I think there is": Is it a bug? The manual says that {.closure.} is the default for procedural types, not {.nimcall.}, which is the default for procs, so the type error is technically correct right?
18:00:02FromDiscord<blashyrk> @demotomohiro ↵Thanks this looks pretty elegant. I was still hoping there would be a way to make these definitions in the exact same way whether they're in the same compilation unit or external. But this is good enough 🙂
18:03:36FromDiscord<ynfle> In reply to @neurocyte "Is it a bug?": nimcall works for closure

18:05:00FromDiscord<blashyrk> (edit) "Nim" => "Nim. Basically thinking about a plugin system (say, a renderer via opengl/vulkan/directx) where you could swap them at compile time/runtime via shared libs"

18:09:48FromDiscord<demotomohiro> In reply to @blashyrk "I'm talking just Nim": In that case, I think you need to use dynlib module: https://nim-lang.org/docs/dynlib.html↵I don't think dynlib pragma allows you to change shared library filename at runtime.
18:15:24FromDiscord<neurocyte> In reply to @ynfle "nimcall works for closure": forcing everything to {.nimcall.} definitely works though. I think it's either a bug or possibly just a nasty edge case in the type inference for the table constructor.

19:51:13FromDiscord<Zectbumo> I was looking at fieldPairs https://nim-lang.org/docs/iterators.html#fieldPairs.i%2CS%2CT↵and I noticed there is an example using `when` inside a for loop. I don't understand this. I thought `when` was figured out at compile time so how can this be used inside a loop?
19:53:56FromDiscord<neurocyte> the when statement itself is executed at compile time, yes, but the contents of whichever branch is true may be executed at runtime.
19:54:25FromDiscord<neurocyte> the false branches are stripped away and do not exist at runtime.

20:01:38FromDiscord<Zectbumo> I would guess this is possible because `fieldPairs` has `noSideEffect`
20:02:50FromDiscord<Zectbumo> or does that have nothing to do with this situation?

20:10:59FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Ynfle did you get the fix?
20:16:34FromDiscord<demotomohiro> In reply to @Zectbumo "I would guess this": `fieldPairs` expand the loop at compile time because field names of `object`/`tuple` exists only at compile time. I think that is why when is used.
20:17:09FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yep field pairs is unrolled
20:17:23FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Which means each iteration is pooped out
20:18:04FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=406d
20:18:49FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Due to the static nature of Nim you must have loops like fieldPairs/pairs unrolled as your forvar is not homogenous
20:24:11FromDiscord<Zectbumo> oh, I didn't even catch the non homogenous part of this. very interesting
20:24:49FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Really the magic used for field pairs is no longer needed since we have for loop macros now but alas

20:49:35FromDiscord<ripluke> In reply to @PMunch "For the other if": Ok thanks!
20:53:08FromDiscord<mr. glowinthedark> Is there anything like `range`, but for distinct values?

21:10:46FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Proc table
21:11:04FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> The issue seems to stem from tuples + overloaded procedures
21:21:11FromDiscord<ynfle> Is it a bug?
21:21:26FromDiscord<ynfle> If nimcall is used, it works as shown above?
21:27:46FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It's afaik

22:18:14FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> Hey quick question: is there a way to hardcode an image into a program?
22:18:27FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `staticRead("myImage.png")`
22:18:55FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> thanks bot
22:19:01FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> I am a human!
22:19:04*noeontheend quit (Ping timeout: 248 seconds)
22:21:56FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> I do wonder, what is the datatype I get from staticRead?
22:22:07FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> string
22:23:25FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> so when I staticread a file I get a string? so if my file is a png I get the whole encoded thing with pixel clusters?
22:23:43FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You get the file read as is into memory
22:23:53FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You can use procedures at compile time to extract what you want
22:23:53*noeontheend joined #nim
22:24:08FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> okay thank you
22:26:24FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> No clue if you're still alive pmunch but PR made for the inheritance
22:42:00FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> If you're still here Elegantbeef or someone else I could really use some help understanding how the hell to proceed with the string I receive from staticRead
22:42:21FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It's the binary image data you just use it wherever you need it
22:42:29FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Do you have an image library you're using?
22:42:32FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> yes
22:42:33FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> imageman
22:42:49FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> and I am kinda lost on how to proceed with the binary image data
22:44:13FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Imageman doesnt have a way to load data from a binary source
22:44:46FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> okay so basically the library does not support it. that explains why I wondered around the github page without results
22:45:04FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> so I have to use a different library?
22:45:22FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Or store the image in a file/memfile
22:46:00FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> pixie has `decodeImage`
22:46:32FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> In reply to @Elegantbeef "Or store the image": would that be possible in a static compile-time context?
22:47:11FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> What are you a fter?
22:47:38FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You want to embed an image into your project?
22:47:45FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> yes basically
22:48:02FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> So then just `staticRead` and you're done
22:48:03FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> I want it all inside one .exe file in the end
22:48:31FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> okay staticRead and I have the image stored as binary but imageman can't work with it, so I have to use a different library, right?
22:48:42FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If you want to use image man you'll need to make a file either using memfile or io
22:49:06FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Cause it needs a path to load it at runtime
22:49:54FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> okay so I have to create the file somewhere during runtime to work with it?
22:51:12FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> sent a code paste, see https://paste.rs/71A
22:52:25FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Might need `newMemMapFileStream` instead
22:52:37FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> does this tempdir exist in ram?
22:52:40FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Either point is you need a file due to a limitation of imageman
22:52:52FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Memory mapped files do
22:53:06FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> okay thank you
22:53:22FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> at this point I'm considering just using a different library, this is kinda painful
22:53:40FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Yea pixie is pretty good
22:53:49FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> I'll look into it, thank you very much!
22:53:58FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `decodeImage(staticRead"myImage.png")` is all you'd need there
22:54:58FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> sweet, thanks!
22:59:51FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> uh, I get this error message when trying to compile: `VM does not support 'cast' from tyArray to tyUInt64`
23:00:18FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> You're attempting to decode the image at compile time i presume
23:00:19FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Dont do that
23:00:47FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `let myImage = decodeImage(staticRead"myImage.png")`
23:02:43FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> okay did that, error is gone
23:16:43FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> sent a long message, see http://ix.io/406N
23:19:16FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Look at the examples
23:19:46FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> The examples only went about a few vectors, don't they?
23:20:15FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> There is `drawImage` which lets you draw an image on top of one
23:20:21FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> and `newImage` to create a new image buffer
23:20:37FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> All the stuff you need is there you'll just need to read the API reference
23:20:47FromDiscord<XxDiCaprioxX> Api reference, okay, thank you
