Your WORST solution is what the C backend would have emitted.
It seems too that tdm-gcc is the most convienent way in windows to get a
compiler but it does not seem to like vulkan libs (trouble linking). And you
have to deal with winpthreads licence, but you get a working compiler easier it
still works for opengl for instance. but i switched too linux

Just to call one and the same code at compile- and at run-time? This?
template hw = echo "hello world!"
static:
hw()
hw()
I know Nim has support for [static
blocks](http://nim-lang.org/docs/manual.html#statements-and-expressions-static-statement-expression),
but I do not know what they can be used for, except from printing hello world
at compile time, like it is written in the example. I was hoping I could create
I don't think adding a nil check will become the performance bottleneck. Here
is my test code:
import times
proc MulDiv*(P1: int32, P2: int32, P3: int32): int32 {.stdcall,
discardable, dynlib: "kernel32", importc.}
proc test(s: cstring) =

@Krux02: All my thoughts. Using web technologies is a torture even for
developing modern web applications (they were created in 90s for formatted
text, not for what sites are today), and using them for desktop applications,
for which sane technologies exist in quantity - is just madness. It's
Redox: I like the idea that people want to build an operating system in Rust. I
think it is a great way to show how powerful and productive that language is.
As a real operating system that people want to use, I dont really want it. I am
using Linux, and I have already not all software. Adding
I heard about Rust OS some months ago (Is there one more than Redox). I think
that is very interesting, indeed that would be my main motivation to learn Rust
language deeply.
But it is very hard for new operating systems to become popular. For Linux it
was a bit different, because it was only
The symbol binding rules for generics are outlined in the manual
[here](http://manual.nim-lang.org/docs/manual.html#generics-symbol-lookup-in-generics).
It might help if the section defined what exactly 'open' and 'closed' symbols
are, since most programmers don't know about compiler-specific
Now I with this forum had a `run code` button, so I can see the result in the
browser, but aporia is not far away. I did not look into the implementation,
but I think I could use something very similar, but instead on strings it
should work on the AST. But how do you write a grammar for AST
I see. Thank you for explanations.
Don't use regular expressions to parse programming languages, but if you have
no better tool at hand, at least use a `multiMatch` in combination with regular
expressions. What's a multi match? Something that considers all the given
patterns in lock-step. Hopefully somebody can give a better
Yeah, pretty much. Overloaded indexers are looked for if the builtin indexers
fail, but it is a special case in the language.
