are macros not having access to instance variables ? because when im trying to use an instance variable array in the macro " for " then I get " unknown macro instance var: '@myarr' "
<FromGitter>
<amadanmath> `Spec.expect_raises(IndexError) { ... }` says `wrong number of arguments for macro 'expect_raises' (given 1, expected 1, 2, 3, 4)`
<FromGitter>
<amadanmath> I have no idea what the error is trying to tell me

<FromGitter>
<aisrael> Stupid question: How do I ‘upcast’ in `Int32` to an `Int64`?
jnyw has joined #crystal-lang
<FromGitter>
<aisrael> NVM I just discovered `n.to_i64`
Papierkorb has joined #crystal-lang
rohitpaulk has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
<FromGitter>
<xfbs> Either that, or Int64.new(anytype) :)
<FromGitter>
<xfbs> I've been there haha
<FromGitter>
<xfbs> The Int64.new(anytype) syntax is useful for when you write generic classes, btw.
<FromGitter>
<aisrael> Thanks. Will keep that in mind.
<FromGitter>
<aisrael> Next stupid question: How can we check or test if we’re running in a test/spec? I know it’s not ideal but for now this will have to do. What am doing now is using a class instance variable (`testmode : Bool`) and setting that to `true` in `spec_helper.cr`. Is there a more elegant way to do this?
<FromGitter>
<xfbs> Hmm, good question.. why exactly do you have to do that? Normally the way to go would be to use mocking I guess
<FromGitter>
<aisrael> Am using Cossack. Since (currently) there’s no way to globally “inject” a `Middleware` (for testing, I want to log/record all HTTP calls, trying to make a VCR for Crystal), I have to resort to “if testing, inject test middleware"
alex`` has joined #crystal-lang
<FromGitter>
<xfbs> Well I'm not sure, but there is one thing you could try: if the Cossack module has an internal method to send off a HTTP call, what you could do is you could override this method inside your tests, like so: ⏎ ⏎ ``` code paste, see link``` [https://gitter.im/crystal-lang/crystal?at=5a742d7a4a6b0dd32b7c82e1]
hightower3 has joined #crystal-lang
<FromGitter>
<xfbs> This way you don't have to clutter your main codebase with testing-related code
<FromGitter>
<aisrael> Oh. I can override Cossack’s methods! Yeah didn’t realize I could do that. Thanks will give it a try
hightower3 is now known as hightower4
<FromGitter>
<aisrael> Hmmnn… I just realize I’d also need to know what the current spec file and `describe` context is if I really want to mimic what VCR does. Looking at Crystal Spec’s docs I don’t think there’s an easy way to do that right now :(
<FromGitter>
<xfbs> What is VCR?
<FromGitter>
<aisrael> (Also, turns out I need to override `Cossack::Client.new` (or the `initialize`) method and that’s beyond my Crystal-fu
<FromGitter>
<aisrael> VCR is the Ruby gem that silently and magically intercepts and records HTTP calls, then can play them back at a later execution. Useful for tests. You write and execute your code as normal, then VCR can record the interaction the first time, then just replay from thereon
<FromGitter>
<xfbs> Ahh I see. Well maybe it would be useful if someone ported `vcr` to crystal? Seems like a nice gem :)
<FromGitter>
<aisrael> I was hankering to do that… but… :)
<FromGitter>
<yxhuvud> @mamantoha please reformulate your question into something that makes a bit more sense
<FromGitter>
<aisrael> Am I the only one who frequently gets confused between `[] of String` and `Array(String)`?
<FromGitter>
<mamantoha> In my example, do_something will be run sequentially one after the other. But I would like them to be executed in parallel by 5 pieces for examples.
<oprypin>
mamantoha, Crystal doesn't have parallel execution. if this is IO-heavy, you can settle for concurrent execution. start a fiber that sends these into a channel sequentially, and start 5 worker fibers each pulling from the channel
<FromGitter>
<mamantoha> `GC Warning: Out of Memory! Heap size: 6285 MiB. Returning NULL!`. Anyway thanks @oprypin. I'll try to figure out what this code does)

<j8r> @RX14 I'm working on adding new targets. I'm seeing to types of syntax. Do I favor `fun access(name : Char*, type : Int) : Int` or `fun access(x0 : Char*, x1 : Int) : Int`- the first one maybe?
<FromGitter>
<straight-shoota> @j8r names should follow the header files
<FromGitter>
<faustinoaq> > did anyone have problems running crystal apps from VSCode on arch? ⏎ ⏎ @imonmyown Are you using vscode internal terminal?
<FromGitter>
<imonmyown> I'm using a shell task in tasks.json
<FromGitter>
<straight-shoota> These lib bindings are presumably going to be generated at one point
<RX14>
Named is better
<RX14>
The weird x0 is because they were auto generated
<FromGitter>
<imonmyown> @faustinoaq I mean the run task I have configured. It doesn't reproduce with disabled extensions btw
<FromGitter>
<j8r> I was thinking so too... I will take the named one. What is the most straight forward way to test if my bindings are correct, cross compile the compiler and test it with qemu?
<FromGitter>
<faustinoaq> > I mean the run task I have configured. It doesn't reproduce with disabled extensions btw ⏎ ⏎ What vscode extensions are you using? `vscode-crystal-lang` doesn't touch the internal terminal, just provides syntax and some other basic features.
<FromGitter>
<faustinoaq> @imonmyown ^
<FromGitter>
<imonmyown> @faustinoaq I *am* using it and it is like one of the other three I'm using, so I'm kinda suspicious. Besides I'm not sure the configured tasks are using integrated terminal and not some other kind of special shell environment.
<FromGitter>
<j8r> This won't be tomorrow that the bindings will be finished, but it's moving forward :-)
<knight_>
RX14: I'd be willing. Just need to figure out what to do.
<RX14>
yeah
<RX14>
well you need to install the qt5 development files and work out where they go and how to tell Papierkorb's scripts where to find the relevant files and directories
<Papierkorb>
Don't have time right now (in 1.5hrs .. ish?), but the gist is that yeah, you need to provide qmake so it can find most files. You'll also need to edit config/find_paths.yml and just remove lines 56-65 for now. In any case, you need to get bindgen working first, use its test suite (just `crystal spec`) for that
<Papierkorb>
If the test suite works, qt5 is just a (potentional) path fix away from working too knight_
qard has quit [Quit: My MacBook has gone to sleep. ZZZzzz…]
<Papierkorb>
And for bindgen you should only actually need: clang, llvm, and development libraries of both (basically, tons of static libs and headers)
<Papierkorb>
You can use LLVM4.0 or 5.0, both work.
<Papierkorb>
Use the master branch on qt5, the ready-to-use branch doesn't ship with macos files, only thing you get is a headache from getting your changes into the master branch otherwise :P

honestly I'm sure someone would be happy to arange for you to get a remote shell on their mac for a few hours Papierkorb
<FromGitter>
<imonmyown> I'm currently trying to figure this out, if I fail (in 1.5hrs .. ish?), I'll arrange a remote shell
<FromGitter>
<imonmyown> the problem I see now is that maverix, which I got downgraded to recently has no current support for crystal homebrew package. So need to download and install an update
<FromGitter>
<imonmyown> Which might send me to constantly recurring reboots after update starts.
<FromGitter>
<imonmyown> So-o-o.. remote shell is under the question

`make deps`

when cross-compiling you need the same version on target and host

<j8r> Not easy - I use docker containers to do so
