Re: [perl #131076] [LTA] Rakudo sees Perl 5 code even if there is none (for $x(42), $x(50) {…})

[Brandon Allbery]

That *is* Perl 5 syntax, though; it looks like the schema

for $var (list) { ... } # the space is not required between the var and
the parenthesized list

[perl #131076] [LTA] Rakudo sees Perl 5 code even if there is none (for $x(42), $x(50) {…})

Code:
my $x = *²; for $x(42), $x(50) { say $_ }

Result:
===SORRY!=== Error while compiling -e
This appears to be Perl 5 code

[perl #131075] [BUG] harness6 runs incorrect number of tests when spec or stresstesting

When running spectest (or stresstest) under harness6 not all files in 
spectest.data that should be run are being run. For example:

'make spectest TEST_JOBS=3', i.e. harness5 tests 1168 files

on the other hand

'make spectest HARNESS_TYPE=6 TEST_JOBS=3' only tests 1160 files

The two harnesses should test the same number of files. There's reason to 
believe that the bug hides in harness6.

Hi Timo!

What does "LTA" stand for in this context? One thing I learned is to avoid
acronyms as much as possible.

Re: write string requires an object with REPR MVMOSHandle

[Timo Paulssen]

As part of the IOwesome grant, zoffix is going to fix this error. It's
what you get when you try to write to or read from or do anything with a
closed IO::Handle.

When you use "LEAVE:" you're just declaring a label called "LEAVE".
There are no labels with special function, so your code is equivalent to

sub save {
my $fh = open('data.txt', :w);
ohai: $fh.close;
$fh.print("hello\n");
}

so you're opening the file, closing the file, then writing to it. That
can't work, of course, but the error is also clearly LTA.

write string requires an object with REPR MVMOSHandle

[Gabor Szabo]

I was running the following buggy code:

sub save {
my $fh = open('data.txt', :w);
LEAVE: $fh.close;
$fh.print("hello\n");
}

save();

(note the : after the LEAVE)
Which if I am not mistaken is basically the same as:


sub save {
my $fh = open('data.txt', :w);
$fh.close;
$fh.print("hello\n");
}

save();


and I kept getting the error in the subject which greatly confused me.

Shouldn't this be something like a "print of closed filehandle" error?
