Re: Playing music using pike and SDL.
by Martin Nilsson (lvl 60) ＠ Pike (-) developers forum 13 Mar '26

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.

Hi. At Pike Conference 2017 it was decided that we ought to hold a more informal meeting in Linköping ~ once every quarter. As the three month mark from the conference is coming up soon, it seems time to announce the first such meeting for 2018: Pike Meet-up 2018-Q1 Date: 2018-02-03 (Sat) Time: 10:00 - afternoon/evening Place: Roxen IS AB S:t Larsgatan 22A Linköping Welcome! /grubba

Operator assignment and strict_types
by Marc Simpson 07 Jul '20

07 Jul '20

Hi folks, It looks like operator assignment (op=), increment and decrement statements aren't subjected to the same typechecks as their more explicit equivalents. For example, neither the post-increment nor += statements below warn with strict_types enabled, even though they assign values outside of foo's restricted int domain: int(3..3) foo = 3; foo++; // no warning foo += 1; // no warning foo = foo + 1; // warning from strict_types Similarly, operator assignment on aggregates fails to elicit a warning: array(int) a = ({}); multiset(int) b = (<>); mapping(int:int) c = ([]); // no warnings a += ({ "hey" }); b += (< "hey" >); c += ([ "hey": "there" ]); // warnings from strict_types a = a + ({ "hey" }); b = b + (< "hey" >); c = c + ([ "hey": "there" ]); I'm guessing this is because the checks provided by the F_ASSIGN/F_ASSIGN_SELF case (las.c) only apply to direct assignment; op= and friends are presumably not instrumented for strict_types in the same manner. Have there been any discussions around addressing this inconsistency? Thanks, Marc

Remixml, javascript module
by Stephen R. van den Berg 25 Feb '20

25 Feb '20

This might be of interest to the Pike and/or Roxen community: https://www.npmjs.com/package/remixml I just launched it. Using it in a Single-Page-Application website. Any critical feedback is welcome (I'm currently the only user, so changes in the API are easy and still allowed). >From the description: Remixml is an XML/HTML macro language/template engine. The language and primitives used blend in completely with standard XML/HTML syntax and therefore integrate smoothly with existing XML/HTML syntax colouring editors. Requirements It runs inside any webbrowser environment (starting at IE11 and up). For historical reference: Remixml was originally inspired by RXML, the Roxen webserver macro language. -- Stephen.

Hi all, Process.spawn has a vulnerability: Process spawn(string command, void|Stdio.Stream stdin, void|Stdio.Stream stdout, void|Stdio.Stream stderr, // These aren't used.

pike under sanitizers
by Mike 23 Jan '20

23 Jan '20

hi all, I've compiled and run tests by clang with different sanitizers (address, memory, undefined). If somebody wants to get report(s) and fix let me know. Some of them are trivial and make sense. I'm already post announce on irc and sent mail to grubba@ without reply :) (mike)
