02:19 <timmy> ugh

02:19 <timmy> Fatal error: exception Invalid_argument("Thread.kill: not implemented")

03:30 <samx> yes, stumbled into that myself. annoying.

11:38 <mrbnsn> hello?

11:43 <mrbnsn> In an ocaml class method declaration, how does one pass "self" as an argument to a method in another class?

11:48 <mrbnsn_> hello?

15:05 <TimFreeman> Anyone awake? I'm trying to add a new primitive and ocaml is ignoring me.

15:06 <malc> new primitive as in..

15:07 <TimFreeman> Ah. You're awake. I allocated a new bit in the object header and I need new primitives to set and test the bit.

15:08 <TimFreeman> So I have a file byterun/concsious.c with a primitive that starts with "CAMLprim value is_conscious..." to test the bit.

15:09 <TimFreeman> The C code gets compiled, a new runtime is produced, and the new primitive shows up in the symbol list for the new runtime (generated with "nm")

15:10 <TimFreeman> ... I was about to say "when I do ocamlrun -p", but that apparently isn't true. It seems I'm failing to use my new ocamlrun. Nevermind.

15:10 <malc> never do actually

17:33 <Dybbuk> Howdy everybody.

17:42 <samx> hello

17:44 <Dybbuk> I'm just about to get started learning ocaml, was wondering if anybody had any good pointers or caveats or anything.

17:45 <samx> well, there's pretty much documentation and tutorial type stuff on the ocaml web site, might find something there

17:47 <Dybbuk> Ok, that's where I'm browsing around...I'll see what I can find.

17:48 <samx> but usually the things that might get a newbie confused, are the use of semicolons, and using a match/try inside a match/try

17:50 <Dybbuk> Ok.

17:50 <Dybbuk> Does caml-mode work pretty well?

17:51 <samx> dunno.. never used it

18:59 <ott> hello all

19:01 <samx> hello

19:17 <Dybbuk> Howdy.

19:54 <Dieb> hello all

19:58 <Dieb> where can i found docs about connect to a database (SQL)? On the core language docs, i only found an example to connect to a local database, made by a file. Nothing about to connect to a server. Any url, docs or idéas?

20:03 <samx> go to the ocaml web site, and follow 'the hump' link

20:05 <Dybbuk> Dieb: I just found this: http://pauillac.inria.fr/~guesdon/Tools/ocamlodbc/ocamlodbc.html

20:05 <samx> And here are some more: http://caml.inria.fr/humps/caml.html#Database_interface

20:06 <Dieb> ok, thank you a lot, all

20:06 <Dieb> i'll follow this immediatly

20:29 <Dybbuk> Are there apache module bindings for Ocaml?

23:04 <timmy> samx: what is the best way to have a match/try within a match/try?

23:05 <timmy> i was just using a let f () = ... in f() to get rid of the ambiguity

23:26 <samx> put the whole match or try into parenthesis

23:26 <samx> match foo with ... -> (match bar with ...) | _ -> ...

23:29 <timmy> oh

23:29 <timmy> yeah i should have thought of that

23:29 <timmy> i did it with if statements

23:29 <timmy> thanks
