00:07:25  <Nite_Owl> so exactly how many 0.7.? releases are you planning on
00:07:56  <Rubidium> 4 to 5 I'd say
00:08:11  <Rubidium> like we've done since basically 0.4.5
00:10:19  <Nite_Owl> My history only goes back to around 0.5.0 - I do not seem to remember either 0.5 or 0.6 going to that many but I could be wrong
00:10:44  <Rubidium> 0.4.5-0.4.8
00:10:48  <Rubidium> 0.5.0-0.5.3
00:10:51  <Rubidium> 0.6.0-0.6.3
00:11:04  <Rubidium> excluding betas and RCs
00:12:58  <Nite_Owl> that is about what I remembered
00:13:48  <Rubidium> how release do they have?
00:14:58  <Nite_Owl> yes - 0.5.3 & 0.6.3 - 0.4.8 was before my time here

00:17:09  <Rubidium> diff 0.4 -> 0.5: 18 MB, 0.5 -> 0.6: 23 MB, 0.6 -> 0.7: 22 MB, 0.7 -> trunk: 31 MB
00:18:20  <Rubidium> 0.5->0.6 is big(ger) due to the move C++
00:18:36  <Rubidium> 0.6->0.7 is big(ger) due to adding NoAI
00:19:30  <Rubidium> 0.7->trunk is big(ger) due to the window system rewrite and the string rename/reorder stuff
00:20:47  <Rubidium> so what major stuff would go into 0.8->0.9 to beat the 30 MB, or even reach 20 MB

06:02:16  <R0b0t1> For like, small local circuits, is a maglev actually any better than a monorail?
06:02:30  <R0b0t1> It seems that the extra speed doesn't help too much
06:02:53  <R0b0t1> And it just costs more (I mean, the speed could help you transport more stuff, but the resource generally doesn't "recharge")
06:18:10  <Xaroth> Long circuits generally earn more tho :P

09:10:02  <C-Otto> hi there
09:10:29  <C-Otto> i'd like to use openttd to demonstrate some aspects of software verification to young students
09:10:40  <planetmaker> go right ahead :-)
09:10:45  <C-Otto> (by using trains, crashes and signals)
09:11:04  <C-Otto> i found the "ignore signal" button, which is quite useful
09:11:08  <Rubidium> that would be funky ;)
09:11:21  <C-Otto> is there some related option that trains do not wait until the segment is free?
09:11:32  <C-Otto> i want them to go around without stopping (and crashing) as long as nothing disturbs them
09:11:33  <planetmaker> ignore signal button maybe?
09:11:36  * Rubidium would like to see that course
09:11:47  <C-Otto> i need to press that button way more often than i can :)
09:11:53  *** OwenS [~oshepherd@host86-128-254-175.range86-128.btcentralplus.com] has joined #openttd
09:12:14  <planetmaker> there's no mass-ignore signal afaik
09:12:22  <Rubidium> C-Otto: either don't place signals at all or modify the code a bit so all signals are green
09:12:44  <C-Otto> Rubidium: i like the first idea :)
09:13:21  <Rubidium> you 'just' need to ignore-signal the trains out of their depot
09:13:26  <planetmaker> C-Otto, that's easily done. Just a bit dangerous :-)
09:13:33  <C-Otto> yep, had my first crash...
09:13:51  <C-Otto> okay, the depot is a signal
09:13:52  <C-Otto> good.
09:14:03  * planetmaker wonders how train crashes relate to software engineering
09:14:14  <Rubidium> road crossings are a nice way to demonstrate stuff too; if the train is slow it won't crash through the road vehicle, but if the train is fast it will crash
09:14:29  <Rubidium> planetmaker: I'm thinking about verifying in relation with threaded software
09:14:41  <C-Otto> ah. the train reversed direction!
09:14:42  <C-Otto> bad, crash.
09:14:48  <planetmaker> uh...
09:14:58  <planetmaker> each train a single thread... he.
09:14:59  <C-Otto> planetmaker: this is part of some very basic introduction to theoretic computer science - model checking etc.
09:15:11  <C-Otto> at a later stage we will model the signals using synchrinized automata
09:15:26  <Rubidium> planetmaker: yes, and each track section is a different piece of 'data', which can't be concurrently used
09:15:26  <C-Otto> now all trains died :(
09:17:15  <Yrol> how about setting the penalties for red signals to a real low ( zero? ) value? wouldnt that kinda be a "nonstop ignore red signal"-switch?
09:17:34  <Yrol> or some other pathfindermagic?
09:17:35  <TrueBrain> you clearly don't understand the concept of penalties and how it is related to the game :) Hihi :)
09:17:43  <C-Otto> i don't know the pathfinder options
09:17:56  <Yrol> (TrueBrain) no, i dont °giggles°
09:18:10  <OwenS> Yrol: Setting the penalty to zero will just mean YaPF causes trains to drive up to them rather than finding better routes :p
09:18:13  <TrueBrain> C-Otto: just ignore that suggestion; red lights are red lights
09:18:15  <Rubidium> C-Otto: and neither does Yrol understand the way signals work, so disregard everything he said about signals
09:18:43  <Yrol> uhm... it was not a suggestion. but a question.
09:18:58  <TrueBrain> in that case the asnwer is a hard: NO
09:19:09  <OwenS> Heck; Signals are such it's impossible, at present, for any new kind of block signal to override the "red if train in block" logic
09:19:58  <Yrol> thank you, TrueBrain.
09:19:58  <TrueBrain> C-Otto: can you send us a copy of your class? :p
09:22:42  <OwenS> Writing recursive descent parsers is fun...
09:23:10  <TrueBrain> doing it once, yes
09:23:13  <TrueBrain> after that, it is boring
09:23:27  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: a (small) paper would be nice too; Using OpenTTD to teach software verification ;)
09:23:36  <C-Otto> TrueBrain: of the save games?
09:23:37  <TrueBrain> C-Otto: I agree with Rubidium :)
09:24:02  <TrueBrain> C-Otto: no, I wonder how OpenTTD can ever be set to use in a class, so I would love to see that :)
09:24:15  <C-Otto> easy concept
09:24:17  <C-Otto> 1) play a bit
09:24:34  <C-Otto> 2) let them get the idea that "two trains on the same track is bad" (by crashing them!)
09:24:37  <OwenS> TrueBrain: The "..." was supposed to indicate the "not really" part :P
09:24:39  <C-Otto> 3) introduce signals
09:24:49  <C-Otto> 4) let them figure out, by testing, that the signals actually work
09:24:53  <TrueBrain> OwenS: well, the first time I thought it was fun :)
09:24:58  <C-Otto> 5) explain the underlying model (red -> green -> red etc.)
09:25:02  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: we ought to follow that course ;) Got some time in S2 2009/2010?
09:25:09  <C-Otto> 6) use that model to formalize the system using some automata

09:25:11  <OwenS> I'd much rather be using Bison if it didn't generate crappy code :p
09:25:18  <C-Otto> 7) synchronize the automata and see that everything works out
09:25:19  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: you think C-Otto would pay for our travel?
09:25:27  <C-Otto> this is no real class, but some introduction for pupils
09:25:35  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: you've got OV, right?
09:25:44  <TrueBrain> OwenS: you lose that idea soon enough, Bison is not as bad as you might think :p
09:25:56  <TrueBrain> C-Otto: still, sounds rather interesting :)
09:25:58  <OwenS> TrueBrain: It is when you want multi-threadedness

09:32:37  <OwenS> I'm working on it for an app that has two important conditions: Firstly, very, very fast; Secondly, pre-emptible
09:35:49  <Yrol> i am sure to be bashed again, but... would it not be visually easier to understand, if one uses the blocksignals, which do not revert to red the sec the locomotive has passed them? °puts on helmet°
09:35:50  <C-Otto> btw, openttd rocks on a 30" with 2560x1600 :P
09:36:26  <OwenS> Oh yeah... I have another requirement: Security :p
09:37:32  <TrueBrain> C-Otto: or put a webcam in the class, and send us the result :p
09:37:53  <C-Otto> TrueBrain: the students will make some video presentation on the second day, where they should explain their topic to the other groups
09:38:04  <C-Otto> maybe we get some openttd-video instead of a real one :)
09:38:50  <TrueBrain> either way, we would love to see such videos :) Even more if you allow us to post them on our webpage
09:39:11  *** Exl [~myself@cp1224652-a.roemd1.lb.home.nl] has joined #openttd
09:39:38  <OwenS> TrueBrain: Anyway, my language is somewhere between Python and C :p
09:40:00  <TrueBrain> which says absolutely nothing :)
09:40:21  <TrueBrain> more important are things like: strong typed? weak typed? pointers? string-autocasts?
09:40:37  <OwenS> Weak typed; No pointers; Auto coercion when no data loss
09:40:53  <OwenS> Object oriented, but in the funny "Primitive types are virtual objects" way :p
09:41:13  <TrueBrain> I hate weak typed languages :p
09:41:21  <TrueBrain> (but easier to implement :p)
09:41:28  <OwenS> Well attach type tags to your variables when I implement them :P
09:41:34  <OwenS> var [Int32] myvar;
09:42:08  <TrueBrain> the biggest evil about weak types is that you can't predict function return types (the rest you can determ in most of the cases). I mean like:
09:42:18  <TrueBrain> function () { if (b) return "a"; return 1; }
09:42:33  <TrueBrain> same goes of course for statements like: a = b ? 1 : "a"
09:42:48  <OwenS> def [Int32] x() will probably be the syntax for that :p
09:42:59  <TrueBrain> kills many optimizations, if you don't know the type
09:43:36  <Rubidium> simple solution; only return ints
09:43:57  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: when doing NAIL we already found out that is not what is happening :p
09:44:17  <OwenS> But the compiler will attempt to infer types when it can from given information
09:44:26  <Rubidium> s/return/allow/
09:44:33  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: ah, yes :p
09:45:14  <TrueBrain> OwenS: either way, if you really want speed (very very fast, as you said), you will need to make it strong typed
09:45:22  <TrueBrain> else the runtime needs to check if c = a + b, is valid
09:45:32  <TrueBrain> (needs to check a is integer, b is integer, ...)
09:45:44  <TrueBrain> just telling you now, so you don't have to find that out later :) We did ... :p
09:46:16  <OwenS> TrueBrain: I need speed to an extent. However, I also need user friendlyness as it's not really going in an app targetted at programmers :p
09:46:42  <Rubidium> pre-emptible, fast and noob-friendly?
09:46:53  <OwenS> It's gotta find a medium between them :p

09:47:56  <OwenS> Yeah. I need to be able to run quite a few of these in between rendering 3D frames :p
09:48:15  <TrueBrain> depends on the framerate you expect :p
09:48:16  <TrueBrain> hehehehe
09:48:30  <TrueBrain> create a JIT, and you might make it :)
09:48:35  <OwenS> LLVM JIT ;-)
09:48:55  <OwenS> But luckily most of the time these will be running when frame rates will be low anyway (I.E. before the scene optimizer has run)
09:49:19  <TrueBrain> good luck ;)
09:49:20  <blathijs> OwenS: Working with  LLVM? Nice :-)
09:50:41  <TrueBrain> always a future for NoAI: JIT the code :) :p
09:51:18  <Yrol> i do not get it. why are you so agressive against people who ask a question? a simple "no" or "it doesnt work that way" would have been totally fine. instead of not only implying the asking person is to be totally ignored and not credible, like a slap in the face. sure, you probably get many of weird or silly questions here, but, is this a channel for openttd or for openttd-developers with a masters degree only? it would be nice to have some kind of expl
09:51:19  <OwenS> Well, LLVM does that, at a cost of a big lib :P
09:51:41  <TrueBrain> OwenS: too big, if you ask me :(
09:52:14  <TrueBrain> somehow HelenOS got my attention .. dunno why :)
09:52:22  <blathijs> Yrol: Your message was croppend at "have some kind of expl..."
09:54:51  <Rubidium> Yrol: 1) it sounded very much like you "knew" what you were talking about, basically giving him an idea that for sure is a waste of time to investigate.
09:55:05  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: because of Brianetta?
09:55:10  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: no?
09:55:45  <Rubidium> Yrol: 2) the people bashing you don't have a masters degree (yet)

09:57:09  <OwenS> assert(&Parser::parseUnaryExpr && 0); /me likes such expressions to say "I was called in a stupid way"

09:58:03  <OwenS> Make the assertion always fail because it's in a branch that shoiuld be unreachable
09:58:11  <Yrol> ( rest of message ) " it would be nice to have some kind of explanation for such behaviour."
09:58:15  <TrueBrain> then use: assert(!"I should never come here")
09:58:29  <OwenS> I should probably use that :P
09:58:42  <TrueBrain> OwenS: but remember asserts can be disabled
09:58:46  <TrueBrain> that is the idea of an assert ;)
09:59:12  <OwenS> Yes. The code should never reach it :P I'm following it with an abort for runtime

09:59:26  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: I agree :p
10:00:23  <TrueBrain> OwenS: and given you use C++, why not use 'false' over '0'?
10:00:25  <OwenS> Nice thing about LLVM is that I can make my code generator generate some really unoptimized code... and the optimizer passes will do a brilliant job of cleaning it up :p
10:00:26  <TrueBrain> so much more clear :)
10:00:45  <OwenS> Also a good point on the false =/
10:00:46  <TrueBrain> isn't that the general idea of an optimizer? :)
10:01:00  <OwenS> I mean I can generate some quite pathologially lazy code :P
10:01:29  <OwenS> Other than type inference (Something beyond LLVM's low level remit :P) I'm not doing any other optimizations
10:01:50  <Rubidium> you mean like int x; while (--x);
10:01:56  <TrueBrain> it btw is nice to at least once in your life write your own optimizer :)
10:03:20  <blathijs> Or look at LLVM's? :-)
10:03:32  <TrueBrain> Yrol: 5) we told you 'no', and we had to make sure you were ignored by C-Otto, as you were confusing C-Otto. You might consider stating your questions in a different form, to avoid such confusion :) (just my 2 pennies)

10:03:56  <TrueBrain> blathijs: looking at it doesn't cut it :) Doing it .. that is nice :p
10:04:17  <blathijs> TrueBrain: Agreed, when you look at it, it looks so simple :-p
10:04:34  <TrueBrain> when I had to write my first optimizer, it really took some time to get my head around it :p

10:07:42  <Yrol> (Rubidium) aha. i guess, i totally not understand the meaning of language then either, if a clearly not "suggestive" sentence ( i did not quite said "do that, do this" ) is misunderstood in such a way. oh well... may ESR be praised. ( and thanks, OwenS, for the kind explanation why it wont work )
10:08:56  <TrueBrain> Yrol: funny, how a 'clearly' sentence was misinterperted by at least 3 people from different nations and inside OpenTTD knowledge. But okay, take it how ever you want :)
10:09:36  <OwenS> I suppose 16bytes/variant isn't so bad for a 64-bit arch (struct { Type* type; union { Object* obj; int64_t int; double dbl; etc }};

10:11:12  <TrueBrain> Type* or Type
10:11:16  <TrueBrain> Eddi|zuHause: yippie :)
10:11:18  <OwenS> Type
10:11:26  <TrueBrain> OwenS: so * belongs to type .. write it there :p
10:11:28  <OwenS> I know; thats why I don't define multiple pointer types like that :P
10:11:32  <TrueBrain> (I really dislike that coding style :))
10:11:44  <TrueBrain> makes code obscure :p
10:11:45  <OwenS> It's my pet peeve with C++ :P
10:11:47  <TrueBrain> but okay :)
10:12:07  <OwenS> I should be saying "Type*" is the type... now define all these vars as "Type*"s :p
10:12:30  <TrueBrain> I think Pascal has a nice thing for that, that you define Type_P and stuff
10:12:35  <TrueBrain> then you have: Type_P type
10:12:44  <TrueBrain> immediatly removes any unclearness about the type :)
10:13:16  <OwenS> I suppose I could typedef Type* TypePtr but thats just ugly :P

10:56:10  <OwenS> I do wonder how one would implement signals in tunnels :p
10:56:17  <OwenS> (As in, the matter of placing them :P )
10:56:32  <TrueBrain> not many people know tunnels are blackholes
10:56:42  <TrueBrain> most think that somehow the rails is really on all those tiles
10:56:48  <OwenS> Wouldn't wormholes be a better term? :p
10:57:01  <TrueBrain> fair enough
10:57:06  <TrueBrain> although I once read that every blackhole has a whitehole
10:57:19  <OwenS> Well thats not accepted scientific theory :P
10:57:28  <TrueBrain> blackholes are neither
10:57:50  <OwenS> Blackholes are commonly accepted to exist and be holding the galaxy together
10:57:58  <TrueBrain> still not proven
10:58:12  <TrueBrain> You got to love astronomy :)
10:58:59  <OwenS> They're accepted theory though and probably will be for a while (I.E. until we develop FTL travel or go to the galactic core and back :P )
10:59:11  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: we need to think about branching strgen I think? (you wanted to keep a version for 0.7 branch not?)
10:59:46  <petern> huh?
10:59:46  <petern> strgen inside the tree...
10:59:47  <TrueBrain> OwenS: well, define 'accepted' :) But okay, I will give you thisone, in general it is assumed there is a blackhole
11:00:12  <OwenS> Accepted: Assumed to be and apparently correct but unproven
11:00:14  <Rubidium> not quite branching, just compiling an ancient enough strgen and marking that with e.g. -0.7 instead of -r12346
11:00:39  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: hmm .. tricky
11:00:52  <TrueBrain> (as the strgen branch can only compile HEAD)
11:01:00  <TrueBrain> strgen branch being: /extra/strgen
11:01:30  <petern> ... /tags/0.7.2/src/strgen
11:02:08  <TrueBrain> running 'make' there doesn't really do anything
11:02:16  <TrueBrain> except of course giving an error
11:02:17  <petern> no but that's where the correct source is
11:02:27  <TrueBrain> yes, thank you for that. Now back to the issue .. ;)
11:02:42  <TrueBrain> (it btw also needs a file from table/)
11:02:44  <petern> so the issue is the build system doesn't package up the strgen binary
11:02:57  <TrueBrain> the issue is that /extra/strgen only compiles HEAD
11:03:05  <petern> which should be done at the same time as building openttd
11:03:43  <Rubidium> petern: unless Apple donates us a machine we're not natively compiling strgen on all platforms, making packing it quite tricky
11:03:43  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: maybe add some small magic to that Makefile script, which allows: make TAG=0.7.0 or what ever, which fetches the right revision for the svn:external?
11:04:37  <petern> if you can compile openttd for other platforms, compiling the much simpler strgen shouldn't be a problem
11:04:56  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: I think we need to give petern our job :)
11:05:38  <petern> if you decided to remove strgen from the source tree, and make /extra/strgen the official and only place to get it, then i would agree with your viewpoint
11:05:59  <petern> but currently /extra/strgen is just extra confusing unnecessary cruft
11:06:11  <TrueBrain> for you maybe; for us, not so much
11:06:16  <Rubidium> petern: compiling not, automating it without much extra effort is something else
11:07:14  <Rubidium> and we've learned that using svn:externals isn't that favourable in /trunk
11:07:31  <TrueBrain> euhm, no, that was a bad move :)
11:08:05  <Eddi|zuHause> what was actually the problem there?
11:08:12  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: what about REV=XYZ, if unset use HEAD and svn up the externals to that revision? For the 0.7 branch version we just need the right revision
11:08:24  <Rubidium> Eddi|zuHause: hg/git people failing to compile
11:08:33  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: hmm .. I now realise a problem: 0.7 is in a branch
11:08:38  <TrueBrain> and svn:external fetches trunk
11:08:44  <TrueBrain> so that only works for 0.7.0
11:09:09  <TrueBrain> or we need to modify 'make' to do the fetching
11:09:13  <Rubidium> Eddi|zuHause: svn up -r foo doesn't update the externals to the same revision, making binary searches difficult
11:09:34  <petern> well, if you need a branch
11:09:41  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: strgen hasn't changed in /0.7 and is unlikely to significantly change
11:09:56  <petern> just make a normal copy
11:10:05  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: 'significantly' ;)
11:10:17  <TrueBrain> what if in 0.8 you decide it is needed ? :)
11:11:09  <Rubidium> well, add an svn switch option too?
11:11:25  <TrueBrain> hmm .. MSVC of course never calls make :p
11:11:59  <Rubidium> we're not using MSVC to compile the thing, right?
11:12:08  <TrueBrain> no? mingw for windows?
11:13:25  <Rubidium> yup
11:13:32  <TrueBrain> ah
11:13:37  <TrueBrain> so that would be possible
11:13:49  <TrueBrain> although a bit ugly, and consumes unneeded time on the VMs :p
11:14:05  <TrueBrain> hmm .. do the VMs have networking? :p
11:14:07  <Rubidium> needs to be done before it's send to the VMs (no network)

13:53:16  <TrueBrain> OwenS: well, depends I guess :)
13:53:32  <TrueBrain> it always has to be partly an expression if you want to allow: a = b = 1
13:53:40  <TrueBrain> or while (a = func()) {
13:53:56  <OwenS> It's just how many people are gonna go "if(a = b)" and get horribly confused? :p

13:57:57  <blathijs> Not making assignment an expression might also make the compiler simpler :-)
13:58:47  <blathijs> OwenS: Your warning is quite better that GCC's warning ("Suggest parentheses around truth value")

14:02:59  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: as can findversion.sh the extra/strgen, but that is a REALLY ugly hack :
14:03:00  <TrueBrain> p
14:07:21  <TrueBrain> clearly, the CF needs a rewrite :p Ghehe :)

14:10:51  <Rubidium> though I think it needs manual 'work'
14:11:13  <TrueBrain> I will modify the scripts so version.sh knows what the 'release' value is from the project
14:11:16  <TrueBrain> should do the trick, I guess

14:11:39  <Rubidium> the schedule doesn't want to run :(

14:16:31  <TrueBrain> hehe
14:17:13  <blathijs> OwenS: I don't think so, but perhaps it is
14:20:36  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: seems to work!
14:20:55  <Rubidium> yup, though... needs manual work for releases. Not that it really matters much
14:20:56  <TrueBrain> now we just need to compile one for the recent nightly, as finger now gives a wrong version :p
14:22:10  <Rubidium> will do ;)
14:22:22  <Rubidium> 16886 is new enough :)
14:22:30  <TrueBrain> it is the latest, I guess :p
14:22:55  <TrueBrain> now I need to fight strgen with WT3.1 ..
14:23:15  <TrueBrain> I wonder if it isn't easier to put the data I need on finger.openttd.org or whatever :p
14:23:33  <OwenS> blathijs: "warning: suggest brackets around assignment used as truth value" (And thanks for reminding me to turn on -Wall :P )
14:24:27  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: what data do you need?

14:29:13  <TrueBrain> Rubidium: the -export stuff
14:29:34  <TrueBrain> as it turns out to be pretty tricky to compile stuff from WT3.1 (and keep it up-to-date)

14:32:23  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: true-ish, but if you're going to support branches it'll become even trickier
14:32:31  <TrueBrain> exactly
14:32:52  <TrueBrain> so I was thinking, what if we publish the exports on finger.openttd.org/strgen/<release>/
14:32:56  <Rubidium> also with finger.openttd
14:33:25  <TrueBrain> a post-commit hook in subversion can take care of the updates, I guess
14:33:37  <Rubidium> TrueBrain: release would mean 0.7, trunk etc?
14:33:42  <TrueBrain> yup
14:33:50  <TrueBrain> still leaves my problem that if you commit a strgen update and a language update which uses that at the same time
14:34:01  <TrueBrain> I somehow need to synchronize such data
14:34:15  <Rubidium> that'd mean that the strgen update needs to be done first in the post commit hook
14:34:23  <TrueBrain> post-commit is async
14:34:32  <TrueBrain> (on your request :p)
14:34:38  <Rubidium> and that only after that is succesfully done can the language thingy be started
14:35:01  <Rubidium> although...
14:35:03  <TrueBrain> but I guess it is possible to make those 2 synchronized :)
14:35:32  <Rubidium> what if we make a new post commit script that sequentially does the strgen update and then language update and call that async from the postcommit hook
14:35:50  <Rubidium> prrrroblem solved ;)
14:36:04  <TrueBrain> that is what I meant too, so yes
14:36:09  <Rubidium> though, for each language update it needs to check finger
14:36:25  <TrueBrain> well, in the call to WT3.1 we can then also indicate if there was a strgen update
14:36:52  <TrueBrain> not really pretty though
14:37:14  <Rubidium> separate call that some the strgen data changed?
14:37:21  <TrueBrain> yup
14:37:24  <TrueBrain> synchronized
14:37:27  <TrueBrain> should work
14:37:58  <Rubidium> the only issue: how to cheaply compile them
14:38:34  <TrueBrain> branches are here again an issue, yes

17:48:53  <Ammler> in our case it is the user redmine, you could make sudoers for it, e.g. dunno, what exactly root needs :-)
17:49:38  <TrueBrain> yeah, and for that you really need passenger

18:52:18  <TrueBrain> then I wouldn't know :)
18:52:18  <Yexo> Jeej: use autorenew
18:52:37  <Yexo> but then cars will only be replaced when they get old

19:15:42  *** andythenorth [~andy@87.115.74.135] has joined #openttd
19:17:39  <blathijs> OwenS: I'd go for operator, since a function is really something else (mostly runtime vs compiletime)
19:18:16  <OwenS> Not in a scripting language :p
19:18:37  <TrueBrain> even in a scripting language
19:18:51  <TrueBrain> runtime means that even after JIT it needs to be evaluated every time it comes past that function
19:18:57  <TrueBrain> where compiletime means it is done just once
19:19:12  <OwenS> Aah true, I can in some cases optimize away typeofs :p
19:19:18  <blathijs> TrueBrain: For an dynamically typed language, typeof might still be runtime
19:19:34  <TrueBrain> blathijs: true
19:19:40  <TrueBrain> but yeah, it allows optimizing

19:20:12  <blathijs> OwenS: OTOH, in LLVM the typeof thing will probably become a function again :-)

19:21:10  <blathijs> OwenS: Are there any other options?
19:21:14  <OwenS> TrueBrain: instanceof? Nah. if typeof(x) == Integer is better :P
19:21:22  <Sacro> Prof_Frink: wha?
19:21:30  <Prof_Frink> window 2.
19:21:33  <blathijs> OwenS: Intrinsics perhaps, but those are really functions as well
19:21:37  <OwenS> blathijs: Yes. If my front end can deduce that the variable is of a type at compile time :p
19:21:43  <Sacro> Prof_Frink: window to is #freeside on irc.freeside.co.uk
19:21:46  <blathijs> OwenS: How will that handle inheritance?
19:21:47  <Sacro> 2 i mean
19:21:55  <OwenS> I.E. if you do "typeof 2" I know it's an Integer :p
19:21:58  <Prof_Frink> Lies.
19:22:03  <Sacro> nope, truth
19:22:16  <Prof_Frink> 2 is a bad place.
19:22:16  <blathijs> OwenS: Right, but in that case, the typeof will disappear alltogether :-)
19:22:36  <OwenS> And if it doesn't dissapear it's just a load of the first member of the variant struct :p
19:22:45  <Sacro> Prof_Frink: oh?

20:05:05  <Yexo> TrueBrain: can you please implement fs#2954 ?
20:11:16  <TrueBrain> OwenS: instanceof !== typeof, I hope you do realise that
20:11:21  <TrueBrain> typeof(instance) == class
20:11:26  <TrueBrain> instanceof(instance) == "name-of-class"
20:11:35  <TrueBrain> Yexo: tomorrow, if I don't forget
20:11:44  <TrueBrain> (isn't the easiest thing to do :( )
20:11:44  <Yexo> TrueBrain: bananas misses 0.7.2 as version
20:11:51  <TrueBrain> that too, I will do tomorrow :)
20:12:02  <Yexo> ok ;)
20:12:53  <Yexo> and what's your opinion about removing license.txt from uploaded tar files if you don't specify 'custom license'?
20:12:56  <OwenS> TrueBrain: In my case, a instanceof t = typeof a == t or typeof a == t.base or typeof a == t.base.base ...
20:14:09  <Yexo> OwenS: that looks very wrong, don't you mean "subclass of t" instead of "t.base"?
20:14:31  <OwenS> Sorry, by bases are on the wrong side :p

20:16:31  *** Markk [~markk@rikskriminalen.com] has joined #openttd
20:17:20  <TrueBrain> Yexo: explicit adding license.txt never hurts anyone
20:17:28  <TrueBrain> the idea is simple: if you downloaded the file, you don't know the license
20:17:37  <TrueBrain> so a license.txt is needed to specify that after downloading :)
20:17:44  <Yexo> TrueBrain: that's completely besides the point
20:17:46  <TrueBrain> oh, uploading
20:17:51  <TrueBrain> sorry, read downloading
20:17:52  <Yexo> yes :)
20:17:56  <TrueBrain> at uploading it isn't needed
20:18:01  <TrueBrain> or at least, not the last time I touched the code
20:18:11  <TrueBrain> you only need to supply license.txt when you do a custom license
20:18:26  <Yexo> last time I tested, license.txt if forbidden when uploading when chosing a non-custom license
20:18:54  <TrueBrain> okay, so I guess I didn't understand you again :p
20:19:01  <TrueBrain> this time it is more because of the way you wrote your question ;)
20:19:14  <TrueBrain> I think you mean, that in case someone does supply a license.txt, it should silently be removed?
20:19:20  <Yexo> the problem: I'd like to generate ai library tar files from a makefile. That makefile should include license.txt in the tar file. Now I have to make another tile file to upload to bananas.
20:19:23  <Yexo> yep
20:19:25  <frosch123> pick the language based on an white-space ignoring compare of the uploaded license with the default ones :)
20:19:29  <Rubidium> he wants that if license_selected != custom && license_added != None: license_added = None
20:19:53  <TrueBrain> okay, then I understand what you mean .. took me long enough :p
20:20:07  <TrueBrain> that said, I think it is good that you can't have a license.txt when selecting a non-custom
20:20:23  <TrueBrain> say you have a custom license, you upload, select a license not knowing what it does
20:20:25  <TrueBrain> poef, other license
20:20:29  <Yexo> yes, but see my case above, there are some problems with it
20:20:39  <TrueBrain> so what frosch123 says is an option
20:20:46  <Yexo> that'd work fine :)
20:21:07  <TrueBrain> k .. will put it on my list
20:21:13  <TrueBrain> don't expect it any time soon, as BaNaNaS code is ugly!!! :p
20:21:15  <TrueBrain> haha :)

22:30:46  <glx> 0.6.3 is 0.6.3
22:31:13  <PeterT> so what is the revision closest to it (lower)
22:31:25  <glx> won't help
22:31:36  <glx> revisions are shared between branches
22:31:36  <Ammler> buy a svn book
22:31:52  <glx> if you want 0.6.3 get tags/0.6.3
22:32:35  <PeterT> no, im trying to figure out if r11047 savegame is compatible with 0.6.3
22:33:03  <Ammler> afaik, stable branches don't make safe bumps
22:33:03  <glx> doesn't matter for savegames :)
22:33:05  <OwenS> tags/0.6.3 will tell you which revision 0.6.3 was
22:33:12  <Ammler> v
22:33:15  <OwenS> But, you need to check 0.6.0 for savegame versions :p
22:33:27  <OwenS> Well, 0.6.0rcX? :P
22:33:52  <glx> btw just try to load it in 0.6.3 and you'll know
22:34:00  <Rubidium> tags/0.6.3 would say that it's current revision in 17097, which isn't quite useful
22:34:55  <PeterT> i must not be following

23:00:05  <PeterT> too bad
23:00:21  <fonsinchen> Was it? Perhaps sometime earlier. Just look in the cargodist thread and you might find something.
23:00:39  <PeterT> cargodEst thread
23:01:00  <fonsinchen> well, if you want cargodEst I can't help you
23:01:22  <PeterT> whats the difference, i could never tell?
23:01:41  <fonsinchen> in short: cargodist is still developed, cargodest isn't
23:02:09  <fonsinchen> also they have different concepts on what demand is and how multiple parallel flows are to be handled
23:02:14  <fonsinchen> read it up in the Wiki
23:02:16  <Eddi|zuHause> i'm quite sure that cargodEst and IS was tested
23:02:30  <PeterT> and did it work?
23:03:28  <OwenS> Probably. A long time ago. With a long obsolete nightly
23:03:45  <PeterT> this is really annoying
23:04:02  <Aali> merging IS2.0 and cargodEst is dead simple
23:04:17  <PeterT> how?

23:05:46  <Eddi|zuHause> did i ever tell you watching a 1'D1' engine making its rounds is awesome :)
23:05:48  <fonsinchen> merging two patches can probably be done with less than a few years of experience

23:08:48  <Aali> it's not the subtle incompatibilities I'm worried about

23:09:57  <Aali> even if they by divine intervention manage to stitch the rest together
23:10:02  <fonsinchen> It's probably impossible not to break the saveload code when merging two patches with savegame versions different from the trunk savegame version.
23:10:13  <Aali> the saveload code simply cannot be stitched together without breaking
23:10:56  <OwenS> Well, it can on rare occasion
23:11:03  <Aali> fonsinchen: you can't make it load everything, obviously
23:11:05  <Eddi|zuHause> i once managed to break my saveload code so far that i could load old versions of a patched savegame into trunk ;)
23:11:16  <fonsinchen> We should make the savegame version an extendable vector, each entry telling about the version of some feature.
23:11:46  <Aali> fonsinchen: no we should not :)
23:11:59  <Eddi|zuHause> there is a minor savegame version that could be used for patches, but nobody had the courage to actually use that one
23:12:05  <fonsinchen> Then I could add a linkgraph feature to the savegame and it wouldn't break compatibility with trunk if something is changed in trunk.

23:12:51  <fonsinchen> Furthermore, it's not obvious how the minor version is intended to be used.
23:12:56  <Aali> the minor version was killed for a good reason
23:13:01  <Aali> it should stay dead
23:13:55  <fonsinchen> Aali, do you actually like all patches breaking with each trunk savegame bump?
23:14:41  <Aali> I couldn't care less
23:14:59  <Aali> want to play an old patched game? use the old version that created it
23:15:17  <fonsinchen> On the other hand you do like patches to be well tested before they are accepted, don't you?
23:15:35  <Eddi|zuHause> Aali: that is not a good philosophy
23:16:00  <fonsinchen> Being able to load old savegames encourages people to run tests with new versions of the patch.
23:16:50  <fonsinchen> If they aren't able to load their savegames, they'll stick with some old version for playing them. Which is exactly what no one wants.
23:16:50  <Eddi|zuHause> exactly. savegame incompatibility is the main reason why people stay away from patches
23:17:47  <Aali> great, I'll just put down your names on the "Will provide support for all old versions of everything forever"-list then, shall I? :)
23:18:30  <fonsinchen> I will only provide support for old versions of cargodist, provided the infrastructure is there to make that less of a pain than it is now.
23:19:44  <fonsinchen> Other people could do the same with their patches, though.
23:22:14  <Eddi|zuHause> Aali: nobody says trunk should be able to load such savegames

23:25:24  <Aali> you're missing the point
23:25:41  <Eddi|zuHause> yes, because you did not actually mention the point
23:25:55  <Aali> old savegames are as obsolete as the software that created them, _in my opinion_
23:26:09  <Eddi|zuHause> all you splurt out are subtle implications of a great evil
23:26:22  <Aali> therefore, time spent on making them compatible is time wasted
23:26:27  <OwenS> Aali: The majority of people disagree with you
23:26:55  <Eddi|zuHause> Aali: then why does OpenTTD support loading of 15 year old TTO savegames?
23:26:57  <Aali> I'm aware of that
23:28:21  <Rubidium> then why have loading old savegames at all?
23:28:41  <Eddi|zuHause> and why do people insist on using open standards when they notice that they can't open 10 year old Word documents with their current software?

23:30:35  <Eddi|zuHause> what if i get a new operation system and r12160 does not compile anymore?
23:30:48  <Aali> because word documents are usually more important than your little collection of imaginary trains
23:30:51  <Aali> anyway
23:31:05  <Aali> this discussion has been completely derailed
23:31:23  <Eddi|zuHause> maybe i steganographed secrets into my imaginary trains?
23:32:16  <Eddi|zuHause> and in 5 years i urgently need to have access to these blueprints of the nuclear facility?
23:32:48  <Eddi|zuHause> how can you say my savegames are not important?
