Re: [racket-dev] SIGSEGV MAPERR si_code 1 fault on addr (nil) when inserting rows via db / SQLite

2011-11-13 Thread Rodolfo Carvalho
Eric,

I can't help fixing the problem with your current code, but I can point you
to the docs where Ryan says you should probably use functions like
start-transaction, commit-transaction and call-with-transaction (in
case you missed those).

http://docs.racket-lang.org/db/query-api.html?q=db#(part._transactions)

PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQLite connections are discouraged from using
transaction-changing SQL statements


So, for example, (query-exec db BEGIN TRANSACTION) becomes (start-transaction
db).

Re: [racket-dev] SIGSEGV MAPERR si_code 1 fault on addr (nil) when inserting rows via db / SQLite

2011-11-13 Thread Ryan Culpepper
Thanks for the report. Your program led me to find *a* bug (a space leak 
in the statement finalizer thread). Fixing that bug causes your program 
to succeed consistently, but the bug I found should not have caused the 
segfault, and I haven't been able to find an underlying problem. I'll 
push the intermediate fix; if you still run into problems let me know.

[racket-dev] DrRacket autocompletion change

2011-11-13 Thread Sam Tobin-Hochstadt
I've just pushed a change that will hopefully make DrRacket's
autocompletion more helpful.  It now will suggest results based on the
same fuzzy search that the documentation search uses.  So, if you
enter:

#lang racket
cur-dir

and hit Ctrl-/

You'll get a menu with the following choices:
  current-directory
  current-load-relative-directory
  current-target-directory-getter
  current-target-plt-directory-getter
  current-write-relative-directory

The search method and ranking is still pretty simple.  I'm happy to
take suggestions on how to improve it, especially if there are
particular cases where you don't get the results you'd like.

Re: [racket-dev] plea for short planet syntax in student languages?

2011-11-13 Thread Nadeem Abdul Hamid
Thank you very much for this!

The documentation for *SL needs updating to reflect support for the
short planet syntax, e.g.
  
http://docs.racket-lang.org/htdp-langs/beginner.html?q=require#(form._((lib._lang/htdp-beginner..rkt)._require))

 I'm using the rsound planet package in beginning student languages, and

 Would it be difficult to support the shorter

[racket-dev] struct type properties and field accesses

2011-11-13 Thread Sam Tobin-Hochstadt
Many built-in structure type properties (such as `prop:procedure' and
`prop:set!-transformer') support providing an integer index into the
structure to reference a particular field that should supply the
value.  This is a very useful pattern, but unfortunately, it's not one
that any Racket programs can use.  In particular, the procedure
calling mechanism and the expander get around the inspector system to
implement this behavior.

It would be nice if additional structure type properties could do this
as well.  Here's a suggestion of how it could work.
`make-struct-type-property' adds an optional argument which specifies
that an integer value is an index into the structure.  In that case,
the generated property accessor procedure performs the field lookup
itself, avoiding the inspector system.  Note that this doesn't reduce
the power of the inspector system, since the structure type property
value could be the struct accessor procedure paired with the index,
and then you could write your own struct property accessor procedure
that did the dispatch.  This is less convenient for both users and
definers, and thus it would be nice to build it in.

I think you can do this yourself already using the guard argument of 
make-struct-type-property. The guard function gets a list that contains 
the values that struct-type-info would return for the new structure type 
if it skipped the immediate current-inspector control check.
