Re: iopipe v0.1.0 - now with Windows support!
On Sunday, 10 June 2018 at 20:10:31 UTC, Steven Schveighoffer wrote: iopipe version 0.1.0 has been released. iopipe is a high-performance pipe processing system that makes it easy to string together pipelines to process data with as little buffer copying as possible. Nothing has really been changed, but it now has Windows i/o support. I will note at this time, however, that ring buffers are not yet supported on Windows. This version deprecates the IODev type that I had included, in favor of a new io library that shows extreme promise. This version ONLY builds on 2.080.1 or later (the bug fix that I submitted at dconf has been merged in that version, and so iopipe will now build against Martin Nowak's io library). In fact, iopipe development was kind of stalled due to this bug, so I'm super-happy to see it fixed and released! Note that the new io library also supports sockets, which IODev did not have support for, AND has a pluggable driver system, so you could potentially use fiber-based async io without rebuilding. It just makes a lot of sense for D to have a standard low-level io library that everything can use without having to kludge together multiple types of io libraries. Near future plans: 1. Utilize a CI to make sure it continues to work on all platforms. 2. Add RingBuffer support on Windows 3. Add more driver support for std.io. 4. Continue development of JSON library that depends on iopipe (not yet on code.dlang.org). git - https://github.com/schveiguy/iopipe dub - https://code.dlang.org/packages/iopipe docs - http://schveiguy.github.io/iopipe/ -Steve Could you explain some benefits specific to this implementation and a bit of the functional aspects for a proper overview of it's capabilities and why I should chose this method over others?

Seoul D Meetup
Woohoo! I'm extremely pleased to announce the first Seoul D Meetup! The three known D enthusiasts currently in Seoul (me, Mike Franklin, and Mathias Lang), and at least one potential enthusiast, are getting together at Charlie's (the hot dog shop my wife and I started a few years ago) to talk about our favorite programming language and future Seoul meetups. If there's anyone else out there in Korea interested in joining us, we're meeting on June 20th at 7:00 pm. Free hot dogs and at least a couple of rounds of beer on me. https://www.google.com/maps/@37.5336799,127.001524,3a,75y,215.2h,88.79t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sDJJPLRAaW6XHi5OM8XA90g!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

I'd like to believe it though I know there must be a bug somewhere. There always is. Dlangbot runs on AWS. I use docker-compose to isolate all of the related services (bot, database and the one which executes the code). Executable downloading would require me to rewrite the back-end. I am not sure if it'll worth it because it's not clear how safe that would be for a user and how usable that feature will be. I mean, if user already has x86-64 Linux machine (that's what dlangbot uses) then will it be any simpler and faster to message the bot with code, download an executable and run it than compiling it using installed compiler? Here you are assuming the user has a compiler installed on his machine. It may not be the case in some environments or for some people that are just toying around with the language. I think my assumption is right, because newbies are more likely to start with D either reading books or dlang-tour which provides means to compile and execute examples and edit them as one wants. Even dub, official package manager and build tool for D promotes using `dub run package` instead of building the project and running an executable manually. This approach does make sense because it prevents some silly mistakes people make. I'll open an issue about your idea, but I can't see it being very useful so it's very unlikely to be implemented at all. Who knows though, it might be very easy to do if I decide to change the architecture of the whole project.

Note: the examples still don't work as they rely on openDev, which is only available on Posix systems now.
