Process.run
by Peter Bortas (nu med mindre Opera) ＠ Pike (-) developers forum 14 Jul '08

14 Jul '08

I just checked in a Process.run() in 7.7: http://pike.ida.liu.se/development/cvs/diff.xml?module=Pike&file=7.7/lib/mo… The rational for that is that I was once again reminded by a user this week that getting Process.create_process() or Process.Process right without some corner case blocking is hard. It's not obvious that if you bind pipes to booth stderr and stdout you have to take in to account that OS buffers are not limetless. Process.run() is a thin wrapper around Process.Process that collects stdout, stderr and exitcode and return them in a mapping. This could potentially result in huge strings, but will do what most users want and even already do when they call create_process() with both pipes bound. Something like this should be in 7.8, but I'm open to suggestions for other things that might be usefull to return in the mapping or for changing member names.

It is time for a new release of Pike 7.6. Is there anyone who can do the release notes? If not, we'll just wait a bit longer...

Pike 7.6 for debian applies the SSL patch from Thomas Bopp. A working solution is already check into Pike 7.6, so don't use the debian Pike until the patch is removed.

Getting GObjects from mixin objects
by davve (David Vest) ＠ Pike (-) developers forum 25 Mar '06

25 Mar '06

Trying to get a simple TreeView to display a list of strings I tried something like this: g_ui = GTK2.GladeXML("some_ui.glade"); g_ui->get_widget("test_treeview")->set_model(GTK2.ListStore(({"string"}))); To my surprise, the following returns zero: g_ui->get_widget("test_treeview")->get_model(); After some digging I found out that the generated code for GTK2.TreeView set_model failes to get a GObject from argument when it does something like this (returns NULL): GTK_TREE_MODEL(get_pg2object(<obj_on_stack>, pgtk2_tree_model_program)); For reference, the meat in get_pg2object does this: o=(struct object_wrapper *)get_storage(from,type); return o->obj; But the storage for pgtk2_tree_model_program is a 'struct mixin_wrapper' so the cast seems dubious in this case. I suspect that the content of the mixin_wrapper (offset) should be used to pin-point the relevant 'object_wrapper' for a given program. Should some find of specialized function be introduced for this? I have this in my source/support.c just to get my simple example to work: GObject *get_pg2object_mixin(struct object *from, struct program *type) { struct object_wrapper * o; struct mixin_wrapper * m; if (!from) return NULL; m=(struct mixin_wrapper *)get_storage(from,type); o=(struct object_wrapper *)from->storage + m->offset; return o->obj; } and then uses that in TreeView.set_model() This requires the caller to know if an object is a mixin-object or not. Is it better so to mark mixin-programs in some way so that get_pg2object() knows better how to extract object_wrappers from storage? Or have I missed something fundamental?

upgrading modules crashes pike?
by Adam Montague 23 Mar '06

23 Mar '06

Does pike not load modules completely when they are first accessed? I have some long running (24/7) pike scripts, and I just noticed that if I upgrade a C module they use, all those pikes will segfault. Adam
