Greetings, Factoristas - (Slimmed-down revision of earlier bloated post)

Found a small bug in smtp.factor, and suggest a fix.


I ran into a glitch trying out the mail-ui vocab, from the recent Re:
Factor blog (mrjbq7-re-factor-ac166fe).

I did note the necessity of setting up SMTP to use gmail, though I couldn't
get that to happen via

.factor-boot-rc. Instead, I just added the set-up code to mail-ui.factor,
to be called from the

top-level word, open-compose-window:

------

USING: smtp namespaces io.sockets ;


: setup-smtp ( -- )

"cwalsto...@gmail.com" "mail-password" <plain-auth> smtp-auth set-global


"smtp.gmail.com" 587 <inet> smtp-server set-global


t smtp-tls? set-global ;

-------

~So far, so good.  The 'compose' window comes up and accepts text just fine.

But clicking the 'send' button throws this error:


"Generic word aux>> does not define a method for the byte-array class.

 Dispatching on object: B{ 65 85 84 72 32 80 76 65 73 78 32 65 71 78 51 ~36
more~ }"


~Error occurs where the slot accessor aux>>  fails on the base64 auth
byte-array, looking for

a string instead. So, I made a small change to the send-auth method of
plain-auth in smtp.factor

to output a string rather than a byte-array and succeeded in a soliloquy
with my gmail account:

-------

M: plain-auth send-auth

    [ username>> ] [ password>> ] bi

    plain-auth-string

!    "AUTH PLAIN " prepend command get-ok  ---*CHANGED TO*:

   * "AUTH PLAIN " "" prepend-as*  command get-ok ;

-------

~Now I've got mail!


Cheers,

~cw
