04:08:11MFlamer_How come for i in 0..numThreads-1: never loops? If numThreads = 1 I would expect it to run once
04:08:25*xilo joined #nimrod
04:19:48reactormonkMFlamer_, you loop from 0 to 0
04:19:54reactormonkhm...
04:19:58reactormonktry ...
04:20:19MFlamer_ok, makes sense I guess
04:20:40MFlamer_I just used a while loop, little uglyier

14:57:18wlhlmHi, I'm doing the nimrod tutorial I. When compiling the first programm (with `nimrod compile --run greetings.nim`), the compiler created the `~/nimcache` directory - Is there a way to change the cache directory in `/etc/nimrod.cfg` other then --nimcache?
15:07:36reactormonkwlhlm, so you want to set nimcache in nimrod.cfg?
15:12:41wlhlmreactormonk, yes if it's possible - I don't like when software creates directories/files in my user home and I don't want to set it all the time one the command line/alias. I think for cache files `/tmp` would be a better option…
15:16:30dom96The nimcache directory is created wherever you are compiling your files.
15:16:35*shodan45 quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!)
15:16:36dom96It's not always in ~
15:17:32wlhlmdom96: ahh, ok…
15:17:37dom96And haven't you answered your own question? You use --nimcache to change the dir.
15:19:35wlhlmdom96: I don't want to specify it all the time or alias it.
15:20:11dom96You can put it in your cfg file.
15:20:16wlhlmIs there a description of the syntax of `/etc/nimrod.cfg`?
15:20:43dom96it's the same as on the cmd line, or 'nimcache = "..."'
15:22:08wlhlmdom96: thanks! (now I see the line "# additional options always passed to the compiler")

16:38:53seekerhi there
16:39:16seekerjust wanted to now if the forum has a search function
16:40:06seekerI mean this forum: http://forum.nimrod-code.org/
16:42:36MFlamerNo, but I asked the same question on the form and someone responded with a way to use google to search
16:45:03seekerthx MFlamer
16:45:22seekerindeed i did use site:forum.nimrod-code.org
16:45:25seeker;)
16:46:01seekerMFlamer: by any chance do you know who implemented the win32 ole library?
16:47:31*DAddYE joined #nimrod
16:48:57seekerMFlamer: in fact i was looking for a COM library to complete the OLE one
16:50:42seekerany examples on using http://nimrod-code.org/ole2.html somewhere?
16:52:44dom96Looks like that module is really old: https://github.com/Araq/Nimrod/blob/master/lib/windows/ole2.nim
16:53:06dom96And I have no idea what OLE is, so i can't really help you.
16:53:15seekerthx dom96
16:53:39seekeri think you're the author of jester, isn't it?
16:53:44dom96yeah
16:53:47seekernice job
16:53:55dom96thanks :)
16:54:18seekerdom96: can jester be used in some async mode?
16:54:34seekerlike libuv would allow to...
16:56:05dom96yes, it can.
16:56:31dom96https://github.com/dom96/jester/blob/master/tests/asynctest.nim
16:57:30seekerdom96: very nice! any benchmark?

17:10:05*brson joined #nimrod
17:13:24seekeri am looking for more examples on using nimrod with win32 than what i can find with the distribution, if anyone can help?
17:18:51MFlamer I can't offer much help here, unfortunatly
17:19:02Araqhi seeker, welcome
17:19:11seekerhi Araq
17:19:14AraqI translated the ole2 stuff from FPC once
17:19:31seekeris it used somewhere?
17:19:40Araqno idea ;-)
17:19:44AraqI don't think so
17:19:49seekerno problem ;)
17:20:14Araqalso I had the beginning of a COM interface but people told me there are easier/better ways
17:20:17seekerin fact i read a nice article about nimrod today
17:20:23Araqand now we have nothing instead. great, hu?
17:20:23*ltbarcly quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
17:20:52seekerAraq: i usually use either python or luacom for this
17:21:14AraqI never touch these anymore :P
17:21:41seekerbut with nimrod i could compile the whole thing to a single executable if i understood correctly
17:22:29Araqyes and the executable is very small
17:22:40seekeri was really impressed
17:23:07seekerand would love to rebuild my OLE COM stuff with nimrod
17:23:27seekerno clue where to start with win32 and nimrod
17:23:37Araqinstall it?
17:23:50seekeryes it's so easy and fast
17:24:04seekertalking about nimrod...

17:31:37Araqseeker: found it; I wanted to wrap http://disphelper.sourceforge.net/ with c2nim
17:31:47Araqshould be quite easy
17:31:57seekerthx Araq i'll keep you posted
17:34:15Araqif you manage, please put it on github and add it to Babel
17:34:47seekerAraq: sure
17:36:00seekerbtw i was looking for such an easy library to wrap with luajit ffi for some time now ;)
17:36:19seekerbut I'd rather do it in nimrod now...
17:36:42Araqwow you're a quick believer ;-)
17:38:47seekerAraq: lua and luajit is tiny but nimrod also has the huge advantage of compiling to a standalone single executable
17:39:10AraqI know ;-)
17:40:01seekerit's funny that I'm selling you nimrod now :)
17:42:21Araqit's funnier people always assume I don't know any other programming languages
17:43:04seekerWhat's your background Araq if i may ask?
17:43:36seekerprogramming language wise...
17:47:16AraqI wrote lots of Delphi, Ada, C, Java, C#, Lua and Python code. I've used other languages, but these are the ones in which I wrote "real word"/production code.
17:54:17seekernice language compilation...
17:55:08seekeri think it sheds some light on nimrod's origins
17:55:39seekeri have Ada missing on my own list but i used and still use a lot of Ruby
17:56:32Araqit does but perhaps not as much as you think; for instance modula 3 is has been a big influence even though I never really used the language as the compiler wouldn't build on my machine ;-)
17:56:51seekerinteresting...
17:57:19Araqalso C++ and Lisp are quite obvious influences
17:57:28seekerindeed
17:58:24seekeryou're doing a great job with nimrod
17:58:54Araqoh and I copied the module system from Oberon :P
17:59:19seekeroh, i have no clue here ;)
18:01:57seekerAraq: i must leave now; again my compliments on nimrod and keep up the good work
18:02:12Araqthank you

21:43:24*shevy joined #nimrod
21:43:36Araqhey shevy
21:43:44shevygot a question - but let me look at my notes first
21:44:01AraqI'm doing my best, but can't help it, you're constantly downvoted on reddit :P
21:44:22shevythat's ok
21:44:26shevy80% idiots on reddit
21:44:36shevyanyway, to read in input one can do something like: var user_input = readline(stdin)
21:44:43Araqyes
21:44:58shevythat will read in until the \n character?
21:45:21Araqyeah but it's not part of user_input
21:45:32shevywait... lost me there
21:45:56shevylet's say I type: "abc" then hit enter, the variable will have "abc"
21:46:11shevybut if I would type "abc\ndef" enter, the variable would also have only "abc" right?
21:46:21shevythe real question I have is actually how to do multiline input
21:46:50AraqI think this works:
21:46:58Araqwhile not eof(stdin):
21:47:07Araq var line = stdin.readline
21:47:19shevylemme test slowly :D
21:47:22Araqand then terminate your input via CRTL+Z
21:47:38Araqor maybe it was CTRL+D
21:48:26shevyah ok
21:59:10*dyu_ quit (Quit: Leaving)
22:00:51Araqshevy: check out the 'rdstdin' module to get GNU readline support
22:07:45*OrionPK joined #nimrod
22:56:49reactormonkAraq, should break break out of the inner or outermost construct? https://github.com/Araq/Nimrod/issues/611
22:57:20Araqthe guy is right, it should break the 'block'
22:57:29Araqthat's what the spec says
23:10:18OrionPKshould blocks make 'unused' compiler warnings?
23:11:47Araqlike "label is not used"?
23:11:51OrionPKyeah
23:11:53Araqyeah I guess
23:12:02OrionPKI mean.. you are using it though, presumably
23:12:17OrionPKthe block's name isnt being used, but the code contained within is being called
23:12:21OrionPKseems like extra noise
23:12:45OrionPKno one will ever benefit from that warning, I dont think
23:13:11*ltbarcly quit (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
23:14:03Araqthe name can be descriptive though

23:14:15OrionPKyeah
23:14:19OrionPKnames are good
23:14:21Araqeven if the label ain't used
23:14:22OrionPKthe warning is bad
23:14:31OrionPKimo
23:15:02OrionPKI have no problem with the name being there
23:16:03Araqyeah ok
23:16:08Araqso no warning then
