01:08:16FromDiscord<!&luke> (edit) "isend" => "i send" | "i sendu a tree view of the whole project ... " added "instead"
01:10:54FromDiscord<StarSox> In reply to @Elegantbeef "You may need `--passL:"-L/path/to/your/panda/lib"`": The lib path should be getting passed during make as it's actually part of the building of the project.

01:13:27FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> you can do `--listCmd` to see what Nim is running
01:15:34FromDiscord<StarSox> In reply to @Elegantbeef "you can do `--listCmd`": Doing this repeats the log I sent earlier (https://pastebin.com/raw/amUZUrvu)
01:16:34FromDiscord<!&luke> In reply to @Patitotective "if you want to": It's fine lol I solved the problem (by doing it another way)
01:17:28FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Can i see the files inside your panda lib folder?

01:24:11FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> those are `.lib` so i think someone forgot `-static`
01:34:04FromDiscord<StarSox> In reply to @Elegantbeef "those are `.lib` so": Tried a few ways and am still receiving the error.
01:35:23FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4cZ0
01:37:12FromDiscord<StarSox> That's exactly what I changed
01:37:20FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Ok just making ssure
01:37:52FromDiscord<StarSox> In reply to @Elegantbeef "Ok just making ssure": I appreciate the help a lot
01:38:12FromDiscord<StarSox> The part it's failing at is ld. When I do `ld -LC:\Panda3D-1.10.13-x64\lib -lpandaexpress --verbose` to try and find the file in the lib directory specified by the project, it doesn't find it. So maybe I'm trying to figure out what files need to be linked and where they'd be?↵↵Here's the output of that ld:↵https://pastebin.com/raw/iyq68Fxb
01:38:59FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Uhh this might just be a mingw on windows thing
01:39:22FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `.a` is a \nix static lib iirc
01:41:27FromDiscord<StarSox> In reply to @Elegantbeef "Uhh this might just": How should I figure this out then?
01:46:23FromDiscord<auxym> In reply to @Elegantbeef "`.a` is a \*nix": yeah a stands for archive, basically a bunch of .o's stuffed into a tarball-ish thing. I think the equivalent on windows is .lib.
01:47:44FromDiscord<auxym> @StarSox can you `dir` your `C:\Panda3D-1.10.13-x64\lib` folder? Does pandaexpress.lib exist in there?
01:48:00FromDiscord<StarSox> In reply to @auxym "<@318779065563611137> can you `dir`": https://pastebin.com/raw/BKpAnNw0
01:48:28FromDiscord<StarSox> No but libpandaexpress.lib does
01:49:49FromDiscord<auxym> In reply to @StarSox "No but libpandaexpress.lib does": yeah, you might have to either rename the file or force the linker to include prefixed .libs in its search, might be some option to do that.
01:50:34FromDiscord<auxym> or call `-llibpandaexpress`?
01:50:42FromDiscord<StarSox> In reply to @auxym "yeah, you might have": `ld -LC:\Panda3D-1.10.13-x64\lib -llibpandaexpress --verbose` passes so I think that should work
01:50:48FromDiscord<auxym> yeah
01:52:18FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> Anyone know how I can concatenate strings in Nim? I just set variable url and then tried url.add("string") and it wont work. I just want to append queries to the end of the url from stdin, not necassarily even store them at variables. If I could just run like downloadFile("url/$1", "file"), that would be even better
01:52:56FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> (edit) "downloadFile("url/$1"," => "downloadFile("url/stdin","
01:53:10FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `&`
01:53:17FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> `"hello" & " world"`
01:53:36FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> oh thats nice
01:53:46FromDiscord<auxym> .add should work too, is your `url` actually a `string` though?
01:54:28FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4cZ2
01:54:45FromDiscord<auxym> yeah that, has to be var
01:55:40FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> Oh thats the issue
01:56:11FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> I had it like above but I had to give define if as a string
01:56:18FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> (edit) "if" => "it"
01:56:28FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> (edit) removed "give"
01:57:03FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> Maybe didnt space right because it works without type
01:57:50FromDiscord<StarSox> In reply to @auxym "yeah": New errors 😊
02:02:01FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> What naming convention do you guys use for vars/procs?
02:02:08FromDiscord<StarSox> I think I may be at my end with trying this
02:02:09FromDiscord<StarSox> https://pastes.io/k0xik10j7n / https://pastes.io/raw/k0xik10j7n
02:02:19FromDiscord<Patitotective> In reply to @wick3dr0se "What naming convention do": camelCase
02:02:29FromDiscord<Patitotective> and PascalCase for types
02:02:32FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> camel case for procs/variables, pascal case for Types
02:02:53FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> Ok cool thanks guys
02:02:56FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Constants are whatever you little heart desires, i generally do lowercase aswell
02:03:12FromDiscord<Patitotective> In reply to @Elegantbeef "Constants are whatever you": constants are camel case, dont trust him
02:03:21FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> Lmao
02:03:31FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Pascal case actually means both
02:03:43FromDiscord<StarSox> Any ideas for the undefined references? Thinking I could open an issue and get some help from the author, but would like to really try to solve this first
02:03:44FromDiscord<Arathanis> Consistency is probably more important than anything though. Pick a convention for your project and then adhere to it..
02:03:52FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> One is lower pascalcase the other is upper pascal case
02:03:54FromDiscord<Arathanis> (edit) "it.." => "it."
02:05:00FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> I'll stick to Camel besides Pascal for types. Seems simple enough. I'm used to writing BASH with snake_case for functions and lower/upper for vars
02:06:30FromDiscord<Patitotective> is there a way to pass multiple modules to docgen? i have some modules i want to generate documentation on but they're not imported in the main module of my library (importing them would warn `UnusedImport`),
02:06:31FromDiscord<Patitotective> (edit) "`UnusedImport`)," => "`UnusedImport`)"

02:09:55FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> That's the best I got to get an image from query. Is there a way to read like first argument for the query, like $1 in BASH
02:10:17FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> Instead of spawning a line with readLine

02:16:32FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> In reply to @ChocolettePalette "https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43368284/how-to": Thanks, exactly what I needed
02:35:54FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> I must be really bad with Googling. There should be a way to get all arguments, like $@/$. I tried `paramStr(0)` among some others
02:36:15FromDiscord<wick3dr0se> Otherwise works well to get just 1 arg

03:42:09FromDiscord<Girvo> Question! Does bitwise rotation/circular shift exist anywhere in the stdlib?
03:42:17FromDiscord<Girvo> (Before I go and implement it myself)
03:42:20FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> bitops
03:43:17FromDiscord<Girvo> Sweet I'll go digging
03:43:41FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> https://nim-lang.org/docs/theindex.html is nice if you havent visited 😄
03:44:24FromDiscord<Girvo> Pfffffft that's what _you_ are for right? 😉
03:44:34FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> That's what my parents tell me
03:45:32FromDiscord<Girvo> Modbus does some absolutely _silly_ stuff with regards to byte layouts
03:46:06FromDiscord<Girvo> They swap bytes, swap words, and swap words and bytes sometimes 😄 _and_ you need to handle endianness too yay
03:46:20FromDiscord<Girvo> Oh and the floatreverse stuff they do is _also_ silly
03:56:13FromDiscord<jos> does nim's quasi quotation stuff support sequences
03:56:24FromDiscord<jos> (edit) "sequences" => "repetition"
03:56:28FromDiscord<jos> like in rust you can do something like
03:56:55FromDiscord<jos> let x = [1, 2, 3]; quote((echo $x))
03:57:05FromDiscord<jos> and it would generate echo 1 echo 2 echo 3
03:57:47FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Nope

04:31:02FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> https://github.com/Patitotective/kdl-nim/blob/devel/src/kdl/decoder.nim#L63-L70 nice you wrote a function inside an if statement
04:31:39FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Pleasue usue a different error type then `ValueError`
04:31:55FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Make your own `KdlError`
04:33:31FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> ` let nodes = doc.filterIt(it.name.eqIdent field)` is slow as hell
04:36:07FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> sent a code paste, see https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4cZx
04:36:47FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Or thereabouts
04:37:26FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> It'll be much faster
04:37:41FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Anywhere you use the filterit do the above method
04:37:48FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If you care about speed
04:38:04FromDiscord<Patitotective> :]
04:39:39FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Also instead of calling `normalize` why not use https://nim-lang.org/docs/strutils.html#cmpIgnoreStyle%2Cstring%2Cstring or your own variant?
04:40:20FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> There is also https://nim-lang.org/docs/strutils.html#cmpIgnoreCase%2Cstring%2Cstring you can base off of if you want
04:40:38FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Make whole new strings to compare is a warcrime i think
04:41:32FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Also your usage of naked `try: except:` is horrid
04:42:24FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> While you're at it you can reuse your https://github.com/Patitotective/kdl-nim/blob/devel/src/kdl/decoder.nim#L104-L107
04:42:43FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> Finally you know i have to say use `openarray[char]` instead of `string`
04:43:00FromDiscord<Elegantbeef> If it doesnt need to be a string dont make it one
05:00:46FromDiscord<Patitotective> btw apparently `Object = object or tuple` does not work for generics like `T: Object`

22:19:33FromDiscord<impbox [ftsf]> hmm, any ideas why raising an IndexDefect wouldn't appear to do anything in a debug build? I'm echoing a line just before it and that prints, but I want my app to exit and give me a stacktrace

22:44:41strogon14I have a C function, which takes a pointer to a buffer (may contain nulls) and a size. To build the buffer I have a var msg: seq[char]. Can I just pass msg[0].addr and msg.len to the C function, or should I convert the seq[char] to an openArray first? https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4d5E
22:45:52FromDiscord<Patitotective> In reply to @strogon14 "I have a C": `msg[0].addr` is fine
22:46:09strogon14ok, good to know.
22:46:10FromDiscord<Patitotective> though i think `cstring`s work better
22:48:37strogon14I need to collect the buffer contents from several parts, so I need sth with dynamic allacation. seq handles that for me. cstring wouldn't, would it?
22:50:26FromDiscord<Patitotective> In reply to @strogon14 "I need to collect": don't really know
22:50:42FromDiscord<Patitotective> In reply to @strogon14 "I have a C": you can do `msg: string`, `msg[0].addr` and `msg.len` though
22:51:21strogon14The buffer can have nulls in it, so string is out.
22:51:59FromDiscord<Patitotective> nulls like `\0`?
22:53:27strogon14yes
22:59:07FromDiscord<Patitotective> whats the exact problem with nulls? wouldnt `str[0..<str.find('\0')]` work?
23:02:02FromDiscord<Bung> @ElegantBeef https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/20152 is this legal
23:04:20FromDiscord<auxym> In reply to @strogon14 "I have a C": msg[0].addr and msg.len sounds fine to me. nulls are perfectly valid in a seq[char] (or even a nim string)
23:05:46strogon14But function like, for example, strutils.alignLeft assuem strngs are null-terminated, so AFAUCS I can't use them to pad my bugger with \0 chars. So I might as well use a seq[char].
23:06:06strogon14sorry for all the typos :(
23:07:31strogon14I'll try again: functions like strutils.alignLeft assume that strings are null-terminated, so AFAICS S I can't use them to pad my buffer with \0 chars
23:13:45strogon14Or can I? Indeed I can: https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4d5P I got confused by the way echo handles strings.
23:17:04FromDiscord<auxym> In reply to @strogon14 "But function like, for": does it? I wasn't aware that nulls in nim strings got any special treatment (cstring is different of course). There was a bug in `find` but that got fixed in 1.6.8
23:20:34strogon14I'm not sure for what I would need 'find'?
23:21:01strogon14Anyway, my example works with 'string' too: https://play.nim-lang.org/#ix=4d5R
23:22:40FromDiscord<auxym> you don't need find, just mentioning that it's the only case I know of that cared about nulls, but only because of a bug, which is now fixed
23:23:32strogon14ah, ok, now I understand.
23:42:05FromDiscord<Patitotective> In reply to @strogon14 "But function like, for": just `str[0..<str.find('\0')]`
