Void expressions in arguments
by Mirar ＠ Pike developers forum 31 May '08

Why can't an expression have a void result, then?

Maybe it can compile typeof(expr) first to find out? Or would that give side effects in compilation errors etc?

But then it would only need to be promoted on assignment, no?

Blocks inside expressions
by Martin Stjernholm, Roxen IS ＠ Pike developers forum 31 May '08

Try it yourself. It introduces two new shift/reduce conflicts only, which are benign: One is for a TOK_LEX_EOF error production, and the other is for comma_expr (as part of statements). The second gets cleared up when end_block is shifted.

Why?

Blocks inside expressions

Because a block is always a void expression: statement_with_semicolon: unused2 expected_semicolon ; /.../ unused2: comma_expr { $$=mkcastnode(void_type_string, $1); } ;

precompile.sh
by Martin Nilsson (Opera Mini - AFK!) ＠ Pike (-) developers forum 30 May '08

30 May '08

Currently precompile.sh will continue testing different methods, even if it succeeds in running a pike script, if that pike script then fails for some reason. This hides some errors during the build process. Is there any way of getting around this?

Parsing RXML entities result (was: Re: [Bug] Parser.HTML crash)
by bertrand.lupart＠linkeo.com 25 May '08

These things are > old... :) One can expect that an RXML entity can output another RXML entity, which would then be parsed. I'm not fond of RXML as a programming language, but out of curiosity, what is the expected behaviour? -- Bertrand LUPART http://bertrand.gotpike.org/
