Klutzy helped me through a bunch of issues tonight and I am now building stage 2 from HEAD using GCC 4.8. I put the procedure I used up on the GitHub wiki for others to try and also linked it from the main getting started page:

[rust-dev] Is our UdpSocket misbehaving?

2013-09-16 Thread Maik Klein
https://gist.github.com/MaikKlein/6586333 Basically what happens is that a packet is read partially if the buffer is to small for the packet. According to http://gafferongames.com/networking-for-game-programmers/sending-and-receiving-packets/this should not happen. In my case I send [99u8,99u8]

Greetings rust-dev! I wanted to announce to everyone that today is my first day at Mozilla as an engineer working on Rust! I started using Rust last December for a project of mine, and once I got fed up with compiler errors I decided to try my hand at improving the compiler itself. The

This sounds like reasonable behavior to me. Keep in mind that your data, [99u8, 99u8] has type [u8, ..2] and size size of 2 bytes, not the 512 you're expecing. On Mon, Sep 16, 2013 at 11:06:51PM +0200, Maik Klein wrote: [1]https://gist.github.com/MaikKlein/6586333 Basically what happens

I left a XXX about this herehttps://github.com/mozilla/rust/blob/master/src/libstd/rt/uv/uvio.rs#L958. I'm pretty sure libuv drops the remainder of the packet, but I haven't confirmed that. I think the best way to deal with this is to raise a PartialPacketRead condition. On Mon, Sep 16, 2013 at

Ok. How do you want to go about upgrading build bots once this is in? BTW, looks like it is no longer possible to downgrade mingw to gcc 4.5. mingw-get upgrade g++4.6 says mingw-get: *** ERROR *** there is no release matching g++4.6... I think we should save a copy of existing mingw folder in
