debugger opcodes
by Bill Welliver 30 Oct '14

30 Oct '14

I noticed that folks have been working on code generation lately. Any chance it might be possible to implement some of the opcodes required to get debugging working (step, break, etc)? I seem to recall someone indicating it wasn't a terribly difficult task, but it's clearly beyond my understanding of the problem. Bill

Sql.pgsql behavior in case of errors
by aldem-pikedev＠aldem.net 21 Aug '14

21 Aug '14

Hi everyone, I am preparing to use Postgres in my app, found the following strange behavior: ---snip--- Sql.Sql db = Sql.Sql("pgsql://localhost", "test", "test", "test"); db->query("BEGIN"); db->query("INSERT INTO requests (SvTrId) VALUES ('lala')"); catch(db->query("INSERT INTO requests (SvTrId) VALUES ('lala')")); db->query("INSERT INTO requests (SvTrId) VALUES ('juju')"); db->query("ROLLBACK"); ---snip--- Database is opened, row with 'lala' is inserted, second query (obviously) fails as SvTrId is the primary key, but row with 'juju' is inserted *and* appears in the database - i.e. the transaction is *committed*! Studying source code show, that once error is encounter, session is reset, i.e. running transaction is rolled back, everything is closed, temporary tables are deleted and session variables are reset as well, and after that, the next statement(s) will be committed immediately, as there is no active transaction. In my opinion, this is not exactly correct behavior when statement fails, as session still may be needed (especially temporary tables, open cursors etc). Im some cases, this is perfectly normal when SQL statement fails, especially in SERIALIZED transaction isolation level, and it would be more practical to leave the decision as of what to do to the application. Yes, this is true that it is impossible to continue executing statements in failed transaction, but temporary tables etc. may still be needed. Also, silent reconnection is not a good idea too - when there are many transactional statements are executed - it would be nice to have an option to modify this behavior. Best regards, /Alexander

I've just had to change my ssh keys due to a theft of equipment, and I need to get my git access back. Can someone update my key(s)? I've placed the new key(s) in my authorized_keys file on pike.ida.liu.se Thanks! Bill

Dear Pike community, after the survey we have set the date for this year's Pike conference to November 3rd and 4th. The conference will be hosted by Opera in their Linköping offices. Some details (and more soon) as well as a form for registering can be found on http://pikeconf.opera.com/. We hope that many of you show up, users and developers alike.

by Arne Goedeke 20 Sep '12

20 Sep '12

Dear pikers, as some of you may already have heard there has been some planning for a pike conference this november. opera will be so kind as to host the conference in their linkoeping offices. The date for the event is undecided yet, but it has been narrowed down to either 2nd-4th or 9th-11th of november. Since to all of whom we asked, those two dates were more or less equivalent, we would like to get some feedback from a wider audience. If anyone of you would like to attend and has strong preferences, please step forward. We will set up a website with a simple registration form and additional information once the date has been decided on. best arne

New 7.6 release?
by Bill Welliver 18 Sep '12

18 Sep '12

I'd like to prepare a new 7.6 release in order to capture all of the fixes that have occurred in the last few years. They've really seemed to help resolve a lot of problems I have with an older application, so it'd be nice to make that process easier for other folks. Is there anything special I need to know before getting started on that? Bill

Pike 7.8.700 now available
by H. William Welliver III 17 Sep '12

17 Sep '12

On behalf of the Pike development team, it's my pleasure to announce the immediate availability of Pike 7.8.700, the latest stable Pike release. Source code*, along with binaries for Mac OSX, Windows and various *nix platforms may be downloaded from the following address: http://pike.ida.liu.se/download/pub/pike/latest-stable/ The release notes for 7.8.700 are rather lengthy, so rather than including them in this message, I'll simply include a link to them: https://raw.github.com/pikelang/Pike/7.8/CHANGES Feel free to spread the word… and as always, comments, suggestions (and bug reports) are welcome! Best, Bill Welliver bill(a)welliver.org * Users compiling Pike 7.8 from source code should be aware that gcc 4.0 and higher are incompatible with Pike's "machine code" mode. Attempting to build under these conditions can cause errors and segfaults. A work around for this situation is to compile using the following configuration option: 'make CONFIGUREARGS="--without-machine-code"'.
