NIL revisited
by H. William Welliver III 22 Oct '05

22 Oct '05

A number of us were having a conversation earlier about UNDEFINED and zero and zero_type() and the whole problem of knowing if you are passing a value, or passing undefined or passing a value that's been specifically unset. We found conversation on this whole topic in January 2003, and just as it seemed to be getting somewhere, things veered off course. I'd like to rekindle the conversation, if possible... I believe the proposal was that a new constant NIL be added which is the integer zero with a subtype set. My sense is that there'd need to be a new subtype for this, as you wouldn't really want to use the same subtype as used for an indexing operation on a non-existent index. Additionally, you'd need some way to check for a NIL value. The two options are something like nilp(someval), or modifying the comparison functions to check the subtype value. Any thoughts on this? If we didn't change the fact that variables are initialized to zero, would there be any incompatibilities with this notion? Bill

init error
by Martin Nilsson (lvl 60) ＠ Pike (-) developers forum 19 Oct '05

19 Oct '05

Is it supposed to be possible to use Pike_error in PIKE_MODULE_INIT? When I do it I get a segfault upon exit when the failing module is freed.

test_pike
by Bill Welliver 17 Oct '05

17 Oct '05

I was wondering if it might be useful to make test_pike runnable via pike -x... it seems like it might be useful for non-module purposes, too. Any thoughts? Bill

release process
by Bill Welliver 11 Oct '05

11 Oct '05

I've taken a look at the release process as articulated by Peter and Martin, and thrown it up on a wiki page (pretty much as-is). You can find it under "PikeDevel/Release Process". It looks, at least initially, that anyone with commit access can do these things. The only exception is the Windows build, which seems like a task best left to wizards for the time being. Anyone have any thoughts/corrections on those statements? Bill

quick access modref
by Bill Welliver 10 Oct '05

10 Oct '05

Someone had thrown together a simple little tool on the pike website a while back that I was wondering the status of... you just tacked the method or class you wanted to know about as the path info of the script, and it bounced you to the appropriate modref page. anyone remember that? what's the status? I'm working on a plugin for textmate, and it seems like an ideal feature to add support for. Bill
