00:01 <FromGitter> <riffraff169> generally speaking, an object shouldnt care who uses it, so knowing which caller would not be appropriate i think

01:04 <FromGitter> <riffraff169> not that this is functional programming, but if a function/method returns different results depending on who is calling it, that would be like the opposite

05:53 <FromGitter> <emanzx> I check it out.. quite good.. but does it able to work with other languages? like ruby on rails? we have large part of our apps still on ruby on rails.

05:53 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> mm i doubt it given it uses redis as the store

18:34 <FromGitter> <MrSorcus> https://gist.github.com/MrSorcus/a01f0508ed5d311541465860d88b2b79 - how should i call `example` method with `array of string`?

18:37 <straight-shoota> Your C implementation looks strange

18:38 <straight-shoota> that's not how you handle strings in C nor in Crystal

18:38 <FromGitter> <MrSorcus> @straight-shoota 😆

18:39 <straight-shoota> either you treat the data as Crystal strings with size field, or you treat them as null-terminated C strings

18:39 <straight-shoota> for the latter you need a conversion on Crystal side

18:39 <straight-shoota> for both you need to fix the C code

18:40 <FromGitter> <MrSorcus> @straight-shoota https://gitlab.nic.cz/knot/knot-dns/-/blob/master/src/libknot/control/control.c#L386 - this is the function, i actually tried to bind.

18:43 <straight-shoota> no idea what that does, but at least it seems to operate on fixed-size data types

18:44 <straight-shoota> you should be able to pass in a pointer to the first knot_ctl_t value

18:44 <straight-shoota> staticarray, array, slice should all produce valid pointers for that

18:45 <straight-shoota> but the end of the list needs to be signaled by a null value

18:45 <straight-shoota> or actually, it's not the end

18:46 <straight-shoota> you need KNOT_CTL_IDX__COUNT items

18:47 <FromGitter> <MrSorcus> `KNOT_CTL_IDX__COUNT` is just a number of strings. 12 actually.

18:47 <straight-shoota> yeah you need as many array items

18:50 <FromGitter> <MrSorcus> Yeah, but why in my reduced example i can't get value from data, if it's `StaticArray`?

18:51 <straight-shoota> your reduced example is completely messed up because it uses strings

18:51 <straight-shoota> try it with a struct, or number

18:51 <FromGitter> <MrSorcus> You mean `StaticArray["Hello", ...]`?

18:52 <straight-shoota> the C code does not work

18:54 <FromGitter> <MrSorcus> Hmm...

18:58 <FromGitter> <MrSorcus> Well, i forgot to change `printf("Value: %s\n", data[i]);` to `printf("Value: %s\n", value);`, but it still don't work.

18:59 <straight-shoota> I already told you why it doesn't work

18:59 <FromGitter> <MrSorcus> ```code paste, see link``` ⏎ ⏎ But this code works and it prints all values correctly... [https://gitter.im/crystal-lang/crystal?at=60958e1298ee821821b5dbca]

19:00 <FromGitter> <MrSorcus> @straight-shoota ok, i must reread your messages. X-)
