What's this? Why is case 2 different from the other three? Pike v7.3 release 62 running Hilfe v3.5 (Incremental Pike Frontend) > function plus = `+; > `+(("hello world"/" ")[*]); (1) Result: ({ /* 2 elements */ "hello", "world" }) > plus(("hello world"/" ")[*]); Compiler Error: 1:[*] not supported here. > array(string) hi = "hello world"/" "; > `+(hi[*]); (2) Result: ({ /* 2 elements */ "hello", "world" }) > plus(hi[*]); (3) Result: ({ /* 2 elements */ "hello", "world" }) >

Core!

I just found a pretty minimized test case for a coredump recipe: pelix> pike -t2 -e '' /pike/home/marcus/Pike/7.3/src/object.c:577: Fatal error: Couldn't load master object. No stack - no backtrace. zsh: IOT instruction (core dumped) pike -t2 -e -t1 works like a charm, though. :)

CHANGES line of the day
by Peter Bortas ＠ Pike developers forum 06 Dec '02

06 Dec '02

In the interest of getting the CHANGES worked out sooner or later I will try to (with the eager help of members of this conferance) work out at least one undescribed entry in the CHANGES per day. Depending on current level of boredom there might be more than one entry in a day. 1st entry: basetype() Suggested entry, added to "Language additions": o basetype(foo) Returns the basic type of foo as opposed to typeof(foo) that returns the full type. Also available as sprintf("%t", foo).

This is, incidentally, also why I have not yet written a standard function for this. Take disk 'Gb':s as an example, they can be anything from 1024^3 to 1000^3 bytes, the most common size being 1000 * 1024^2 bytes.

check_all_args/get_all_args
by Martin Nilsson (hehe Torgny) ＠ Pike (-) developers forum 05 Dec '02

05 Dec '02

Is it possible to have check_all_args and get_all_args to look up the name of the current function if fname is null or something? The function names are out of sync in more than one place, and performance isn't as much of an factor since we only do this when there is an error.

status of tree
by hww3 ＠ Pike developers forum 05 Dec '02

05 Dec '02

I was wondering what the status of the 7.3 tree is. I have a simple SNMP agent (~200 lines) I'd like to contribute to Protocols.SNMP, as it makes that module more complete and demonstrates how to use Protocols.SNMP.protocol. I didn't want to add it, because I've heard rumors of a 7.4 release. Does anyone have any guidance about any of this? Thanks! Bill

Comments, AIEE!s and other thoughts about this (Nilsson and I trying to remember what should be done and figure out a good way to do so): # in the raw repository: > mv 7.3 7.4 # elsewhere: > cvs co Pike/7.4 > cd Pike/7.4 > cvs tag -R pre73to745split # back in the reposityory: # remove empty directories > mv 7.4/README.txt 7.4/README > mv 7.4/README.cvs.txt 7.4/README.cvs > cp -rp 7.4 7.5 # finish 7.4/CHANGES # clean up 7.5/CHANGES # (tell someone to update their rsync settings) # rerun CL indexer (since raw changes go unnoticed) # make dists # make announce
