hostname_cache bug in Query.pike
by Mirar ＠ Pike developers forum 30 Jul '08

30 Jul '08

Would it be possible for someone to sneak in this bugfix in Query.pike at some stage? --- lib/modules/Protocols.pmod/HTTP.pmod/Query.pike.old 2007-04-15 14:24:41.000000000 +0200 +++ lib/modules/Protocols.pmod/HTTP.pmod/Query.pike 2008-07-29 09:04:35.000000000 +0200 @@ -500,7 +500,9 @@ array hosts = (Protocols.DNS.client()->gethostbyname( hostname )|| ({ 0, 0 }))[1]; - return sizeof(hosts) && hosts[random(sizeof( hosts ))]; + return + hostname_cache[hostname] = + ( sizeof(hosts) && hosts[random(sizeof( hosts ))] ); } to make the hostname_cache in Protocols.HTTP.Session work as intended.

...so, for a new Query object the hostname_cache will always be empty, unless you supply it from some other direction before you start using the query object. So this doesn't affect for instance Protocols.HTTP.get_url et al, but it will affect Protocols.HTTP.Session()->get_url.

FWIW, the Debian popularity contest shows: http://people.debian.org/~igloo/popcon-graphs/index.php?packages=darcs%2Cgi… that: - The percentage of people picking svn nowadays is roughly constant (after a sharp drop as git came along). - The percentage of people picking git is rising steadily. - The percentage of people picking CVS is dropping steadily. - The other VCSes play not role of significance. -------------- Sorry to throw in my 2 cents, but... Given that the poll is only debian (I use fedora, and lots of people don't use debian based distributions), also that it is only getting people who actually use the poll, and probably a bunch of other caveats. I probably wouldn't count on those types of polls to have any kind of statistical significance.

Re: pgsql performance

I will have to tell you that I'm pleased with this. I use postgresql myself for any of my home projects, so a new and better pg driver is welcome. ----- Original Message ---- From: Stephen R. van den Berg <srb(a)cuci.nl> To: pike-devel(a)lists.lysator.liu.se Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2008 12:35:12 PM Subject: pgsql performance I've been working on a PGsql helper class to speed up the hotspots in my new pgsql PostgreSQL driver; so far it works rather well, and the performance of the new driver has leaped from 10% of the libpq module, to about 45% of the libpq module. I won't be including the module until I have it at about 100% (or greater) of the libpq speed though. -- Sincerely, Stephen R. van den Berg. Expect the unexpected!

SQLite glue segfault in 7.7
by H. William Welliver III 28 Jul '08

28 Jul '08

I just noticed that the SQLite module in 7.7 will segfault if you run a query that returns zero rows (as opposed to a query that throws an error). Since it uses some array aggregation magic i don't fully understand, I thought I'd leave it to someone else. Seems like a pretty major bug, though: > object s= Sql.Sql("sqlite:///tmp/speedydelivery.sqlite3"); > s->query("select * from lists where name=0"); Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory. Reason: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at address: 0x0000000c 0x006d276f in f_SQLite_query (args=1) at sqlite.cmod:326

src/post_modules vs. src/modules
by Stephen R. van den Berg 28 Jul '08

28 Jul '08

Can anyone tell me when a module belongs in post_modules instead of modules? -- Sincerely, Stephen R. van den Berg. "Well, if we're going to make a party of it, let's nibble Nobby's nuts!"

Accessing variables in a class object from within a CMOD?
by Stephen R. van den Berg 26 Jul '08

26 Jul '08

Suppose I have a cmod function: PIKEFUN array decodedatarow(int msglen, object portal) { ... } Which is called as: class portal { int a; int b; }; portal abc=portal(); decodedatarow(12, abc); How would I access the svalues of the members a and b from within the cmod function decodedatarow() ? -- Sincerely, Stephen R. van den Berg.

readline bug
by Martin Bähr 23 Jul '08

23 Jul '08

hi, after being annoyed by this for a while i finally managed to track down the following issue: try: void main() { object rl=Stdio.Readline(); rl->write("first"); rl->write("second"); rl->newline(); } notice how the second clobbers the first? this is particularely annoying in hilfe where i see it often. the problem is in the readline write function which first resets the cursor to the beginning of the line. this can be fixed in two possible ways: force a newline if the cursor is not in column 0, or don't reset the cursor. i prefer adding the newline. the one thing i am concerned about is that someone might expect this behaviour by now and a compatibility thing is needed. thoughts? any other reason not to fix this now? patches attached. greetings, martin.

Someone got a simple test program for the GTK2 glue? I'd like to test that it really works on Windows.
