Re: How to call a super class method?

I just re-read your question and saw your emphasis on "non-static" context. I'm not 100% sure what you are looking for, but take a look at *BUILD:* http://docs.perl6.org/language/objects#Submethods LL On Wed, Oct 28, 2015 at 2:31 PM, TS xx wrote: > Hello fellow perl

Re: How to call a super class method?

Hi Emiliano, You could do this: class Person { has $.name; method new($name) { # do some things self.bless(:$name); } } class Employee is Person { my $counter = 1; method new () { # Employees don't have individual identities so we give them a name :(

Re: Need help with Nil values

You could just do: method new (Str $value?) { ... } # makes value optional and then not pass anything to .new. On Tue, Feb 23, 2016 at 1:27 PM TS xx wrote: > Thanks Brandon, > > > That was what I was looking for. > > I'm trying it already. > > > Regards, > > Emiliano >

Re: mocking Proc

I'd do the follwiing: 1. make a sub named shell to overwrite the existing one that calls .shell on Proc. 2. make a class that inherits from Proc: class MyProc is Proc { } 3. Look at https://github.com/rakudo/rakudo/blob/nom/src/core/Proc.pm and decide what methods you need to override to get the

Re: mocking Proc

I was thinking just do: 'sub shell(...) is export { }'. And then 'use MyCrazyShell;' in module.pm. Do you mean without modifying module.pm? LL On Tue, Feb 28, 2017 at 1:46 AM Brian Duggan <bdugg...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Monday, February 27, Lloyd Fournier wrote: > > I'd d

Ah nice. Wrapping makes more sense than augmenting Proc anyway. LL On Tue, Feb 28, 2017 at 4:22 AM Brian Duggan wrote: > On Monday, February 27, Brian Duggan wrote: > > I tried numerous variants with multis and signatures that match the > > existing signatures, but

Re: Version of a Module

It is a bug. It's because of the way require is implemented at the moment is a little rough. The first one is asking for the .^ver of a stub package require has inserted. ::("Bailador").ver should work. LL On Wed, Jul 5, 2017 at 4:46 AM Martin Barth wrote: > Hi there, > > is

Re: not enough memory

I'm not sure if it's related but I've been getting a few weird memory related issues with HEAD and zef. e.g my travis build just segfaulted: https://travis-ci.org/spitsh/spitsh/builds/248242106#L1355 And a day or so ago I got: "MoarVM panic: Heap corruption detected: pointer 0x7f0fe9a16410 to

Hi Martin, AFAIK you can only do this with hacks atm. It's different if the module is installed or if you are in the source directory doing pelr6 -Ilib. I do this in my own module here: https://github.com/spitsh/spitsh/blob/master/lib/Spit/Util.pm6#L61 LL On Wed, Jun 28, 2017 at 7:14 AM

Patrick's answer of <$regex-interpolation> is the one I'd use. Although it checks a few possibly malicious things it doesn't catch everything: https://rt.perl.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=131079 On Fri, May 12, 2017 at 5:11 PM Andreas Mueller < andreas.muel...@biologie.uni-osnabrueck.de>

Re: Absolute path to directory of the current perl program

I'd use $*PROGRAM.absolute.IO.dirname I'm not sure why .absolute doesn't return an IO::Path object. Maybe that's being addressed as part of Zoffix++'s IO work. On Sat, May 27, 2017 at 10:07 PM Gabor Szabo wrote: > I came up with this: > > say

Re: Absolute path to directory of the current perl program

After thinking about what Zoffix said, probably what you're meant to do is: $*PROGRAM.parent.absolute Which leaves the stringification (.absolute) until last. On Sun, May 28, 2017 at 4:04 PM Lloyd Fournier <lloyd.fo...@gmail.com> wrote: > FYI: > > 15:57 < llfourn> Zoff
