Re: Playing music using pike and SDL.

Were you not able to get any C code to play through SDL either? Does your SDL library have a mixer compiled in it (I think it is optional)?

managing comport settings in linux
by Henrik Grubbstr�m (Lysator) ＠ Pike (-) developers forum 13 Mar '26

Not a good idea; the design philosophy of Pike is that Pike-level code should never be able to cause memory corruption at C-level. With ioctls there's no way to know what data a specific ioctl wants without reading the documentation for that specific ioctl for that specific OS. ioctls and fcntls are a way for device handlers to hook in APIs that aren't standard across all filedescriptors. / Henrik Grubbström (Lysator) Previous text: >2004-08-17 13:32: >Subject: managing comport settings in linux >-------------------------------------------------------------------- >What would be nice, is a way to define ioctl methods in >Pike.

switch and Math.nan
by Arne Goedeke 08 Jul '15

Switches use binary search on a sorted array. Using floating point NaN either as a case entry or as a lookup value therefore does not work properly. I think the current situation can lead to bugs easily, e.g. when using case ranges with floats as in this rather artificial example: int is_in_range(float f) { switch (v) { case 0.0..1.0: return 1; default: return 0 } } I think we should (1) issue a warning when Math.nan is used inside a case and (2) make sure that switch (Math.nan) does not match any case. Any comments? arne
