<g-w1>
idea for the deadlock: it seems like it could be a bug in std.Progress. if so, have you tried reproducing it on an arm machine while redirecting the output away from stdout? maybe cond only triggers then
<g-w1>
seems quite unlikely, but anythings possible
<mikdusan>
tbh I am not very uncertain about the host
<mikdusan>
are you on discord?
<g-w1>
yep
<mikdusan>
gonna post a few screenies
<g-w1>
ok

Hi! Can someone please explain why this snippet of code is failing to compile?: https://pastebin.com/J9zpy8QH

randomperson12: when you say "var a = 5;" the compiler reads it as "define a variable a with the value 5 of type comptime_int". but the compiler refuse to define a *variable* with a *comptime* value
<plumm>
you can also use `comptime var a...` but im sure thats not the semantics you want

Thanks, semarie and plumm. How can I get around the issue though? I'm trying to declare a variable that is runtime allocated.
<plumm>
`var a: usize = ...`
<randomperson12>
Ok, thanks
<plumm>
Honestly I was typing up an explanation but it feels weird to me that this code doesn't just work

:If you're making a zig safe wrapper around a c one, are the conventions to use the library conventions, or the zig ones?

I am getting a similar comptime error. This time I think it might be a compiler bug: https://pastebin.com/qupuxWbE
<randomperson12>
Is it a bug or do I have to specify variables to be runtime allocated?

randomperson12: This isn't a bug. Integer literals are of the type comptime_int and have an infinite size. You'll have to specify its type in this case to make sure it doesn't over/underflow. Like this: https://zig.godbolt.org/z/76T41bqvs

Thanks. I was confused because I wasn't getting an error earlier when I was compiling this code: https://pastebin.com/5zDSjyMG

In this case it works because the result can be evaluated during compile time. In the previous example, it's done at runtime due to the if statement.

Does anyone know if there is a way to merge anonymous structs?
<ikskuh>
what do you mean by merge?
<ikskuh>
you can concatenate tuples with ++

good morning! Does Zig support WASM networking?
<TheLemonMan>
andrewrk, I'm trying to download the FreeBSD llvm+clang+lld tarball but keep getting a 403
<ikskuh>
nefix, WASM doesn't have a system layer
<ikskuh>
so "no compiler supports WASM networking"
<ikskuh>
zig supports WASI, but i'm not sure if wasi supports networking
<nefix>
ikskuh: I know, but through websockets you can do io streaming. In go there are libraries that implement the default net connection interface, so you can use it as if it did support native networking
<ikskuh>
that's a javascript library though ;)
<ikskuh>
which exposes a interface to WASM
<TheLemonMan>
and the FreeBSD server is still on llvm11.0, oh no
<ikskuh>
nefix: so to get websocket support in WASM, you need to create/get glue code that provides this
<nefix>
I see. Thanks! :D

error: expression value is ignored @: try stdin.readAll(buffer);
Nazral has quit [Ping timeout: 252 seconds]
<iamanoob>
How can I solve this problem?
<TheLemonMan>
readAll returns the number of bytes it successfully reads
<ifreund>
you can ignore the return value with `_ = foo();` but in this case to do so would probably be a bug
<dutchie>
yeah, if stdin only contains 20 bytes, then buffer[21..] is going to be undefined junk. and you only know what's defined by considering that return value
<iamanoob>
so I should use: 'stdin.readByte(self) u8!' ?

mikdusan, do you happen to have a LLVM12 tarball for freebsd at hand?

iamanoob, you want readUntilDelimiterOrEof (or its allocating counterpart)
