Sorry, wrong example of failure mode. It seems to happen in `while`: m: while $++ < 5 { when {True} {Failure.new} } rakudo-moar 9d497e: ( no output )

I have observed this before (including with the 2017.01 release), but most recently today after building from a fresh pull. $ perl6 -v This is Rakudo version 2017.02-140-gdd1dab2 built on MoarVM version 2017.02-20-g773711e implementing Perl 6.c. $ nqp -v This is nqp version 2017.02-39-g2780ed7

Re: Net::SMTP attachments?

Hm, I left out what are probably the most important parts. 1. The number one complaint I hear about CPAN is more or less the same story I just told about trying to buy a radio. 2. We organize finding stuff for engineers --- the folks who work with the parts. We don't do very much for the folks

Re: Net::SMTP attachments?

That's why I said "bury". The basic problem here is a conflict between a mindset that builds stuff up from smaller parts, and the needs of people who need to use the higher level stuff. Building up from components is good for many reasons. But people who want to buy a car don't expect to be

Re: Net::SMTP attachments?

Well, tastes can reasonably differ on that point. Bunging all of the complexity, of implementation, of design tradeoffs, and of documentation, into one big module might suit some tastes. Not mine, as either an implementor or a user. Not all uses need all components, and I for myself would

I went to write a test for this, but can't repoduce the issue. I tried a handful of releases with the IRC bot, then built 2016.01 release and the mentioned 86a90be commit, but none of them fail. Perhaps this is an OSX-only issue? Could someone with OSX try reproing it on 86a90be commit and if

Not true, '=for' is part of POD6. See below. If you're getting errors, it's helpful to reduce the example to a reasonably small bit of code that duplicates the same error; either you'll realize the issue as you remove unrelated bits of code, or you'll end up with an example that epitomizes the

pod question

Hi, Is it true that the '=for' is taken out of the pod language? I get errors when I use it. It should take the line and the next lines as a block. I've also seen that it has the same effect now when I don't use it. Regards, Marcel

Search & replace binary data

Hi, In Perl5 one can do a search and replace on binary data. Something like this works fine: perl -pe 's/abc/def/' data > data.out The Perl6 straight equivalent perl6 -pe 's/abc/def/' data > data.out throws an exception: Malformed UTF-8 in block at -e line 1 which is completely

Re: Net::SMTP attachments?

Hi, Net::SMTP manages the SMTP protocol: the email transfer from one server to the next one; it doesn't "build" an email. As far as I can see, there's no Perl6 module to create a MIME email, such as the MIME::Lite Perl5 module. This doesn't mean that there's no way to do that using Perl6: you
