Re: About scientific computing with ATS and notation

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Hi Yann,
  I'm glad to see others showing interest in ATS :D.  I'm not very familiar 
with the sort of scientific programming that you are talking about, but 
I'll do my best to respond to your questions regardless.
  You asked whether you could use 128 bit integers, SIMD, multicore, and 
even distributed computing.  Like, holy moly man.  :D  But yea, ATS can do 
basically anything C can, with the caveat that you may need to write FFI 
code due to the small size of the ATS ecosystem.
  As for the static capabilities of ATS, this I believe to be the strongest 
quality of ATS.  Indexing into arrays/matrices is verified at compile time 
so your example should be recreate-able in ATS.  And no, ATS' type system 
doesn't require you to constantly cast to verify the range of an integer, 
but it will force you write your code in such a way that the system knows 
without a doubt that the integer is not out of range.  It's hard to 
explain, but if you are interested I'd recommend working through the Intro 
to ATS book in the documentation on the website.
  I'm not involved with the development of ATS3, so gmhwxi would know more 
about how much it will change.  I'd recommend reading previous posts about 
ATS3 to find out more.
Good luck.

Re: general questions about ats postiats and upcoming xanadu compatibility

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

I'll try to answer your questions to the best of my ability.

   1. ATS Postiats (also known as ATS2) does not currently support MSVC, 
   and likely never will since ATS Xanadu (a.k.a. ATS3) is the main focus of 
   the lead developer.
   2. I don't know what C standard ATS compiles to, but it's probably safe 
   to assume it compiles to C99 unless there is evidence to the contrary.
   3. In ATS2 you have full access to C's pre-processor, and can use it 
   just like how you would when programming in C.
   4. I know you can use pthreads in ATS, there are some examples of this 
   in the ATS Postiats.  Assuming win32-threads are accessible through a C 
   API, then ATS can use it via FFI.

If you are interested in learning to use ATS, I'd reccommend checking out 
the documentation available on the ATS website 
 and the wiki page for ATS2 
.  And don't be afraid to 
post addition questions. :D

Ok, so I've been able to get the "dict" type to be abstract, but I can't 
seem to get "bucket" to be abstract.  I tried adding the "= ptr" part you 
suggested, but I'm not having any luck.  Using your solution, the code will 
compile, unless I test the "dict" type by calling "dict_new" & 
"dict_delete."  Looking at the error messages, the problem appears to be 
related to the "dict_delete" call, and I've provided the error below so you 
can see for yourself.  I know that there are a lot of details missing, so 
let me know if you'd like me to provide any more details.

How to define linear abstract types based on records

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

So, I've got the following defined in my ".sats" file:
absvt@ype mesh = @{v=int, t=int}

In my ".dats" file, I've defined the following:
assume mesh =
[v,t:nat | v == t*3]
@{
  v=int v, t=int t
}
in
implement mesh_new (  ) = let
in
  @{
v=3, t=1
  }:mesh
end

  Where "mesh_new()" is simply a function that returns a new "mesh" value.  
The code I'm showing is a simplified version of my code that still exhibits 
the issue I was encountering (my original version had arrays, hence it 
being linear.)
  I've been getting the following cryptic error message when compiling my 
code:
!patscc -c g_engine.dats

Re: What is the best way to turn a file into a lazy linear stream?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

No worries, I understand sometimes people get busy. :)
  I eventually decided against using linear streams to process files in my 
code, at least in the way I was using it.  My code would result in being 
relatively slow, due to only retrieving one character from the file at a 
time instead of getting a large chunk of text (which is faster because we 
are making fewer requests to the system.)  Also, I found myself essentially 
needing to either rewrite regular expressions to using character streams, 
or to turn my streams into strings, which struck me as being too roundabout 
to be practical.  The only positive of using streams in the way that I 
originally planned to was that the memory footprint would be reduced, a 
tradeoff I didn't see the value of in my case.
  A better way to use streams in my case is to have a stream of strings 
rather than a stream of characters.  This way, my code will run fast while 
still benefiting from laziness by only reading the file when needed.

Re: Help with Templates, cannot find missing implementation somewhere...

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Thanks, I tried something similar with the "dict" type, but completely 
overlooked the "bucket" type.  I'll test this to see if it resolves the 
issue.

Re: Help with Templates, cannot find missing implementation somewhere...

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Update 2:
After investigating the prelude, I've determined that templates in ATS2 
just conflict with abstract types in some instances.  For this reason, it 
seems that in many parts of the prelude avoided the use of the "assume" 
keyword with template-heavy code.

Update:
I was able to get the code I provided above running by staloading the 
dict.dats file from the dict_test.dats file using " staload _ = 
"./dict.dats" ".  Now, my only problem is that if I make the "dict" & 
bucket types abstract, the templates stop working.

Help with Templates, cannot find missing implementation somewhere...

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Okay, so I've been struggling with my use of templates for a while now, 
and I'm making this post to get some more eyes on the issue.  I've been 
getting really frustrated, because nothing I've tried seems to work, and I 
have no way to understand what is going wrong whatsoever besides becoming 
familiar with compiler internals (which could take who knows how long to 
learn.)

Here's my code:
datavtype BUCKET (a:vt@ype) =
| bucket_empty of ()
| bucket_filled of (Strptr1, a, BUCKET(a))

vtypedef bucket(a:vt@ype) = BUCKET(a)

sortdef dsz = {s:int | s > 0}

vtypedef dict(a:vt@ype, n:int) =
@{
size=int n,
buckets=arrayptr(bucket(a), n)
}

extern fn{a:vt@ype} dict_new {s:dsz} ( int s ) : dict(a, s)
extern fn{a:t@ype} dict_delete {s:dsz} ( d: dict(a, s) ) : void
extern fn{a:vt@ype} dict_delete_lin {s:dsz} ( d: dict(a, s) ) : void

extern fun{a:vt@ype} bucket_delete_recursive ( b: bucket(a) ) : void
extern fn{a:vt@ype} bucket_item$delete ( x: a ): void

implement{a} dict_new {s} ( size ) = let
val size_st = size_of_int(size)
val bucket_arr = arrayptr_make_uninitized(size_st)
implmnt array_initize$init (i, x) = x := bucket_empty()
val () = arrayptr_initize(bucket_arr, size_st)
in
@{size=size, buckets=bucket_arr}:dict(a, s)
end

implmnt{a} dict_delete ( d ) = let
  implmnt(a2:t@ype) bucket_item$delete ( x ) = ()
in
  dict_delete_lin(d)
end

implmnt{a} bucket_delete_recursive ( b ) =
case+ b of
| ~bucket_empty() => ()
| ~bucket_filled(str, x, next_bucket) => let
val () = strptr_free(str)
val () = bucket_item$delete(x)
in
bucket_delete_recursive(next_bucket)
end

implmnt{a} dict_delete_lin ( d ) = let
  implmnt array_uninitize$clear (i, x) = 
bucket_delete_recursive(x)
in
  arrayptr_freelin(d.buckets, size_of_int(d.size))
end

implmnt main0 () = let
  var d = dict_new(13)
in
  dict_delete(d)
end

Re: Template Issue

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

First, you were right, '-DATS_MEMALLOC_LIBC' fixed the code on my end so 
that it compiles fine.

Second, it never even occurred to me that Javascript may not use the "main" 
function pattern used by C-family languages.  With this in mind, it now 
makes perfect sense as to why my code didn't work.

Thanks for the help.

I tried to compile the above snippet on my local machine, and got the 
following error:

I have no idea what it means or what caused it.

You need to select the "Patsopt2js" button when using Try-ATS-on-line to 
get the error I posted.  I'll test using my local ATS installation to 
determine whether this is only on the JS version of ATS or not.

Template Issue

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

I think I've been able to break down a problem I've been having with ATS' 
templates into a simple example provided below.  The following code 
type-checks, and can easily tested using Try-ATS-on-line.














*datavtype maybe(a:vt@ype) =| NAH of ()| YAH of (a)fn{a:vt@ype} maybe_nah 
() : maybe(a) = NAH()fn{a:vt@ype} maybe_yah ( x: a ) : maybe(a) = 
YAH(x)implement main0 () = letvar m1 = maybe_nah()var m2 = 
maybe_yah(6)val-~NAH() = m1val-~YAH(int) = m2inend*

Running the above sample produces the following error:
ParsingErrors:
/tmp/patsopt_ccats_Ht1nNp: 9732(line=454, offs=1) -- 9735(line=454, 
offs=4): error(parsing): the keyword [EOF] is needed.
exit(ATS): uncaught exception at run-time:
/var/lib/openshift/5419477be0b8cddd09000122/app-root/runtime/repo/ats2-lang/contrib/CATS-parsemit/SATS/catsparse.sats:FatalErrorExn(1024)

My question is, why is this simple example failing, and how should I fix 
it?  I know the problem is related to metaprogramming in some way, but I 
don't understand the low-level details enough to get why this isn't 
working.  Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Re: Template Debugging Tips?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Yea, I just wish ATS was better about telling me what I'm doing wrong with 
templates.  An "X is unimplemented for type Y" message would save me hours 
of work (but I suspect that would greatly increase the compiling overhead 
of templates.)

Template Debugging Tips?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

  Recently, I've been working on testing the code for an ATS project I've 
been working on for a while now.  Everything (that I've implemented) passes 
type-checking so far.  However, I've encountered some kind of issue with 
the templates that I've written (which all typecheck) where when I try to 
use them some kind of error shows up in the resulting C code.
  I suspect that I've made a mistake somewhere, but I am struggling to 
debug the resulting code.  Is there some resource where I can gain a 
greater understanding of either how the C code ATS produces is constructed 
or how to debug my templates?  This has been driving me up the wall trying 
to figure out recently, so I wanted to ask the community if they knew 
anything that could help me.
  The two files I am trying to use are dict.sats 

 
& dict.dats 

 
(a dictionary implementation.)  Please let me know if you have any 
questions or would like to see more details.

Re: What is the best way to turn a file into a lazy linear stream?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Okay, so looking back I should have provided more details in the last 
post, as it does not explain the issues I was encountering etc.  I posted 
it right before I went to bed, and that's why I rushed it.
Anyways, I wanted to explain how I solved my problem so that others 
could learn.  Basically, I was using ATS' built-in libc binding to open and 
read a file.  The pointer for the file was a linear type, I wasn't using 
the prelude's non-linear file type.  What my code did is read characters to 
a 'stream_vt' with the 'getc' function until it reached the end of the 
file.  I also planned to have other functions that would discard parts of 
the stream I didn't need so that I could turn the values I needed into 
other values (AKA, typical file-parsing stuff.)  The problem came when I 
needed to close the file.  Despite the use of linear types, freeing the 
file pointer would not prevent the stream from being access due to its 
laziness.  My solution was to essentially combine the view for the file 
pointer and the stream into a single type, and thus requiring both to be 
freed at once.
Moral of the story?  Linear types are amazing, one of the reasons I 
love ATS, but they are *not* a silver bullet.  They too are limited by what 
can be statically inferred by the compiler, and effects such as lazy values 
cannot be predicted by the compiler.  I hope someone was able to learn 
something from my post, and let me know if you have any questions.

Re: Lambdas that use linear resources

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

First, let me say that lambdas are one part of ATS that I'm not super 
experienced in myself.  However, if you haven't been there already, I'd 
recommend reading the chapters on linear & stack-allocated closures in the 
" A Tutorial on Programming Features in ATS " here 
 & 
here  
respectively.

Now, to answer your questions:

   1. (Why is it failing to compile?)  Your lambda doesn't see "acc", the 
   easiest way to solve this is to *pass "acc" to your lambda via reference* 
   (aka use the "&" operator in the function argument.)
  1. Side note: You don't need to say "x: !int", *because "int" is not 
  a linear type*, you can leave it "x: int" without the "!" part.
  2. (Is it possible to avoid the UNSAFE cast?)  The page I linked to 
   you above about linear closure says that yes, there is a way, but that it's 
   cumbersome to use.  That's all I know, I've not seen any example code.
   3. (Can I do this with a stack allocated closure?)  Yes, and in fact 
   it's probably better to use a stack allocated closure in this instance 
   because you are not keeping the closure around to use with multiple 
   functions.  Were you storing this closure in a struct for example, then a 
   linear closure should be used.

Let me know if you have any other questions, and good luck!

What the title says.  Basically, I want to use a solution that:

they are done with the lazy evaluation
 - is not too inconvenient for the user to use

Re: Memory Mapped IO

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Sorry for the delay on this response.

Basically, as for having ATS thing that a pointer is valid, you'd 
create an "extern" function like this:
extern fn name_here () : [l:addr] (typename @ l | ptr l)//  where this 
function points to something in C

As for not having to "psuedo-free" the return value every time you are 
done with it, there are several things that can be done.  First, in certain 
instances you can use templates to make things easier to manage, but 
explaining exactly what I mean is kind of difficult to articulate over 
Google Groups.  You'll have to take my word for it, and you'll likely 
understand when you play with templates more.
Second, this "psuedo-free" issue is a natural consequence of using 
linear types, these restrictions are designed to make resources less likely 
to be mismanaged.  Rather than trying to avoid this pattern completely, I'd 
suggest formalizing this relationship with ATS' type system.  I'd take a 
look at the "Reader and Writer" pattern here to get an idea of what I'm 
suggesting.  Basically, you'd have a view for the memory IO that acts as a 
"key" of sorts.  Whenever you call the function I suggested above, this 
view would be consumed, preventing anyone else from calling that function.  
When you are done, you'd call another function that consumes this pointer 
to the memory IO and gives you back the "key" view.  Now, you can call the 
first function again since you've finished touching that memory.  The 
benefit of doing this is that wouldn't have to worry about things like 
calling the function at the same time in concurrent code.  It also looks 
better, so there's that.

Re: "Number is smaller than 0x8000, trust me"

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Hey David, have you tried using the "praxi" syntax?  It allows you to 
define an axiom, essentially telling ATS: "I'm not going to prove that X is 
true, but just assume it is."  I'd recommend reading the theorem proving 
sections of Intro to ATS if you haven't already.

Here's an example of a praxi that should suit your needs:
sortdef invals = {iv:int | iv < 0x20}
praxi lor_assumption {a,b,c:invals}{r:int} (
a:int a, b:int b, c:int c,
result: int r
) : [r < 0x8000] void

If you'd like me to explain what I'm doing here, just ask me and I can tell 
you how this works.  (By the way, I tested and this code compiles.)

Yea, that would make more sense.  I guess I still don't fully understand

Having Trouble Finding a Constraint Which is Failing

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

So, I'm having difficulty understanding a constraint that is failing in 
my code.  The constraint that is failing is "f1 + f1 = 1", which I am 
confused by, because there appears to be no such constraint in my code.
*Here's what (most of) my code is:*
dataprop FBT_IN (int, a:addr) =
| FBT_NIL(0, a)
| {n:nat} FBT_CONS(n+1, a) of FBT_IN(n, a)

typedef fb_count (a:addr, f:int, b:int) = [c:nat | f >= 0; b >= 0] 
(FBT_IN(c, a) | int f, int b)
typedef f_ind (a:addr, f:int, i:int) = int i
typedef b_ind (a:addr, b:int, i:int) = int i

fn tri_fb_test {c:nat}{l:addr}
(
pfin: FBT_IN(c, l) | t: ctri, dv: plane
): (FBT_IN(c+1, l) | intBtwe(0,2)) =
  if ctri_inside_plane(t, dv) then (FBT_CONS(pfin) | 0)
  else if ctri_outside_plane(t, dv) then (FBT_CONS(pfin) | 1)
  else (FBT_CONS(pfin) | 2)

fun loop1 {i,j:nat | i <= j}{a:addr}{f1,b1:nat}
( a: !arrayptr(ctri, a, j), dv: plane,
fbc: fb_count(a, f1, b1),
j: int j, i: int i ): [f2,b2:nat] fb_count(a, f2, b2) = (
  if i < j then let
val c: ctri = a[i]
val (pf_tr | tr) = tri_fb_test(fbc.0 | c, dv)
val ret_fbc = ifcase
  | tr=0 => (FBT_CONS(fbc.0) | fbc.1+1, fbc.2)
  | tr=1 => (FBT_CONS(fbc.0) | fbc.1, fbc.2+1)
  | _ => (FBT_CONS(fbc.0) | fbc.1+1, fbc.2+1)
  in
loop1(a, dv, ret_fbc, j, i+1)  // <-- constraint fails on this 
line at "ret_fbc"
  end else fbc
*And here's the error produced:*
$ patscc -tcats cmesh.dats
/home/tmj90/Goldelish-Engine/source/assets/cmesh.dats: 8604(line=235, 
offs=26) -- 8611(line=235, offs=33): error(3): unsolved constraint: 
C3NSTRprop(C3TKmain(); S2Eeqeq(S2Evar(f1(8784));

typechecking has failed: there are some unsolved constraints: please 
inspect the above reported error message(s) for information.
exit(ATS): uncaught exception: 
_2tmp_2ATS_2dPostiats_2src_2pats_error_2esats__FatalErrorExn(1025)

I suspect the issue is an implicitly generated constraint of some kind, but 
I have no idea where it's coming from.  *However*, I discovered that if I 
comment out these lines:
val ret_fbc = ifcase
  //| tr=0 => (FBT_CONS(fbc.0) | fbc.1+1, fbc.2)
  //| tr=1 => (FBT_CONS(fbc.0) | fbc.1, fbc.2+1)
  | _ => (FBT_CONS(fbc.0) | fbc.1+1, fbc.2+1)
then everything typechecks.  That's the biggest hint I could find, but I 
don't know what going wrong.  Please let me know if you'd like me to 
provide more code, I just didn't want to clutter my initial post.

Thank you for the suggestions.  I decided to sidestep my need to _ for 
now.  While atscntrb-hx-libpcre seems like it would suit my needs, I'd 
rather not require people to install too many external libraries.  Is ATS3 
suitable for writing libraries for currently?  Because if I were to 
implement string processing functions it would make the most since to do it 
for ATS3.

Finding Strings within Strings in ATS

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

I was searching through the prelude looking for a way to find a 
formatted string within another string in ATS, but there doesn't seem to be 
a built-in way to do this.  Before I make something myself, I just wanted 
to see what opinions there are on the best way to perform this operation in 
ATS.
Do you think I should use the C standard library through ATS' ability 
to call inline C code?  Should I just loop through a strnptr and manually 
check the chars?  Personally, I want to try using linear streams here to 
take advantage of their low-memory overhead (and because I've fallen 
straight into the "once you have a hammer everything looks like a nail" 
trap with linear streams.)  But, I want to hear what others think, so 
please let me know which solution you think is best.
As a side note, should we add more string manipulation capabilities to 
the prelude?  I don't know what Hongwei's stance on this is, but if he 
thinks it would be a good idea I'd be willing to contribute these functions 
to the prelude.

Thank you for the help.  That makes sense, I just wanted to make sure I 
understood the problem for the future.

Thanks, this works perfectly!  By the way, what does the " >>  _" 
syntax mean in this case?

Re: Is It Possible to Pass a Function Template as a Parameter?

I wrote my previous message pretty late, and looking back I can see that it 
makes less sense than I thought it did then.  I don't have time to break 
things down at the moment, but I will try to better explain what I was 
talking about later.

Re: Is It Possible to Pass a Function Template as a Parameter?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Here's what I'm talking about:
I know that I can currently create a function template which takes in a 
function as a parameter, which can be observed below:
fn{a:vt@ype} map_test ( t: , mapper: a - void ) : void

But, let's say that the 'test' typedef is as follows:
vtypedef test = [a:vt@ype] ( a )

In this instance, the function 'map_test()' will not work for the type 
'test' because the passed mapping function 'mapper' may not necessarily 
take in the correct type (the 'test' type essentially hides the type it 
contains.)  Of course, 'test' could be rewritten to take in a type, 
allowing the type checker to verify that the type within 'test' matches.  
Doing so would look like this:
vtypedef test(a:vt@ype) = ( a ) 

But, what if I want the type within 'test' to remain hidden?  If 'mapper,' 
instead of being a function, was a template, then it would compile (given 
said template had the proper implementations.)  Essentially, instead of me 
wanting to verify that 'mapper' will take in the given vt@ype 'a', I want 
'mapper' to reference a function template which then will be specifically 
implemented for any needed types.  Then, I could create a generic map 
function template that would work on a type which hides its contained 
generic type.  I'll admit, this is a pretty niche use case, but I wanted to 
know whether I could indeed do this.

I've already found a way to work around this via the use of local template 
instantiation, which may be the better way to handle things anyways.

Please let me know if this example is insufficient.

Is It Possible to Pass a Function Template as a Parameter?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

So, I know that  it's possible to pass a function to another function as a 
parameter, but what if I want to pass a function template specifically?  If 
anyone would like some clarification, I can try to provide some examples of 
what I'm trying to achieve.

Re: How do I work around the limitations of the typechecker?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Thanks for the reply!  I'll test this out shortly and then check the 
prelude so that I understand the problem for next time. ;) I appreciate the 
help.

How do I work around the limitations of the typechecker?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

So, I'm trying to implement the following hash function:
fn hash {n:int | n > 0}
( s: string(n), size: int(n) ) : [o:int | o >= 0; o < n] int o = let
fun hash_num {i:nat | i <= n}
( i: int i, h: int ) : int =
if i < size then let
val c_at_i = string_get_at_gint(s, i)
in
hash_num(i+1, h * 101 + g0int_of_char(c_at_i))
end else h
in
abs( hash_num(0, 0) ) % size
end

Which produces the following error message:

Re: Can arrayptr_freelin() cause a memory leak?

That honestly sounds amazing!  I had no idea ATS3's improved template 
support would be capable of something as powerful as that.  Thanks, and 
keep up the great work! :)

Can arrayptr_freelin() cause a memory leak?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

I just have a question about using arrayptr_freelin() (which frees an 
arrayptr that contains a vt@ype.)  I have an arrayptr which contains 
datavtypes, and these datavtypes act like a list in that they can contain a 
reference to another of the same datavtype.  The typechecker lets me simply 
call arrayptr_freelin() on the arrayptr, but does this cause a memory 
leak?  Do I need to free the individual datavtypes first?
I can provide a code example if anyone reading this doesn't understand 
what I am talking about.  The types and functions that I am using are all 
in the prelude.

Re: Current Status of ATS3 (2020-11-22)

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Thanks for the update, Hongwei.  It's really awesome to hear about the 
progress being made on ATS3!  I have a question I'd like to ask about 
ATS3's compilation.  You mentioned that rather than compiling ATS code 
straight into a C file, that ATS3 first compiles it into XATSCML, and in 
the future into XATSCL0.  You said this was to make it easier to compile 
ATS into languages other than C, which is awesome and I can definitely 
appreciate that.  My question is, *will this change affect the execution 
speed of ATS3 code compared to ATS2?*  I ask because I am currently working 
on building a game engine in ATS, and so performance is very important to 
my use case.  If ATS3 could potentially be slower than ATS2 was, please let 
me know, I'd be willing to try and contribute to the project to improve 
this aspect.
Thanks, and good luck with ATS3.

Re: Accessing the contents of a pointer(pointing to a linear type) within a record

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

So, I found the issue with my code.  Here is a version of my previous code 
which passes type checking:

   - 
   - vtypedef pointer_in_rec(a:vt@ype) = [l:addr] @{ pointer=(a @ l, 
   mfree_gc_v(l) | ptr l) }
   - vtypedef pointer_in_rec2(a:vt@ype) = [l:addr] @{ pointer=(unit_p, 
   unit_p | ptr l) }
   - 
   - fn{a:vt@ype} get_pointer_in_rec ( x: !pointer_in_rec(a) >> 
   pointer_in_rec2(a)): a = let
   - val (pfat, pfgc | p) = x.pointer
   - val ret = !p
   - val () = ptr_free(pfgc, pfat | p)
   - in
   - ret
   - end

I originally got this working with t@ype, but then I found that it also 
worked with vt@ype.  I don't know if this makes a difference, since Artyom 
said that the function duplicates the value it gets by dereferencing the 
pointer.  I should test this more in the future, but for now I've provided 
my working solution.

Thanks, Artyom!  You're awesome!  :)

Re: Accessing the contents of a pointer(pointing to a linear type) within a record

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate the help.  I'll try this 
suggestion out tomorrow.  One question though: if I use the t@ype sort, can 
I still store a vt@ype within the pointer?

Accessing the contents of a pointer(pointing to a linear type) within a record

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Hey, so, I'm trying to figure out how to make an accessor to a type that 
I've created in a personal project.  The type resembles the following:

   - vtypedef pointer_in_rec = [a:vt@ype][l:addr] @{ pointer=(a @ l, 
   mfree_gc_v(l) | ptr l) }

What I'm trying to do, is create a function which takes in the type 
"pointer_in_rec" via call-by-value, and returns the vt@ype that is stored 
at the pointer position.  My current function interface for doing so is as 
follows:

   - fn{a:vt@ype} get_pointer_in_rec ( x: !pointer_in_rec ): a

I've been experimenting for a while, and I've yet to find an example of

Re: The current status of ATS3

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Thanks for the update!  I've still got much to learn about ATS2, but ATS3 
has got me very excited.  I'll check out the Github page, perhaps I could 
help the project by doing some tests or the like.  Please post if you could 
use some help on anything.

Strange mismatch of equal terms

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Here's my problem:
I'm encountering this weird error where the compiler is for some reason 
telling me that I cannot produce an "asset_hndl" record type because it 
expects a "fpath" type and I gave an "fpath" type.  I'm really baffled by 
this, any help is appreciated.

Here's my code:
assume asset_hndl = [a:vtype] @{ path=fpath, asset_ptr=a, timestamp=usint }
assume fpath = Strptr1
assume path_variable = @{ variable=fpath, mapping=fpath }

fun P ( path: string ) : fpath = "sta#"
fun asset_map_filename ( filename: fpath, pv: !path_variable ) : fpath = 
"sta#"
fun{a:vtype} asset_hndl_new ( path: !fpath, pv: !path_variable ) : 
asset_hndl = "sta#"

implement{a} asset_hndl_new ( path, pv ) = (@{path=asset_map_filename(path, 
pv), asset_ptr=the_null_ptr, timestamp=int_to_usint(0)}:asset_hndl)

Here's the error:

Re: How do I store a viewtype in an array and then access that value?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

I found the answer by looking at some of the code in the ATS github repo.  
Here's the working code:
implement model_print ( m ) = let
  fun mesh_print_loop {l:addr}{i,j:int | 0 <= i+1; i+1 <= j} ..
  ( i: int i, ar: !arrayptr(mesh, l, j)): void =
  if i >= 0 then let
val (pf_ar | ar_p) = arrayptr_takeout_viewptr(ar)
val (ari_pf, ari_fpf | ar_i) = array_ptr_takeout(pf_ar | ar_p, 
size_of_int(i))
val () = mesh_print(!ar_i)
prval () = pf_ar := ari_fpf(ari_pf)
prval () = arrayptr_addback(pf_ar | ar)
  in
mesh_print_loop(i-1, ar)
  end else ()
in
  mesh_print_loop((m.0)-1, m.1)
end

Re: How do I store a viewtype in an array and then access that value?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Ice, thank you for your suggestion, once I get this working I should 
replace my handmade loops with arrayptr_foreach() calls like you suggested.
Artyom, I see what you were trying to do with your suggestion, but it 
didn't work due to the proof pf_ar being consumed by the 
array_ptr_takeout() call.

Here is the code for anyone who wants to see it:
implement model_print ( m ) = let
  fun mesh_print_loop {l:addr}{i,j:int | 0 <= i+1; i+1 <= j} ..
  ( i: int i, ar: !arrayptr(mesh, l, j)): void =
  if i >= 0 then let
val (pf_ar | ar_p) = arrayptr_takeout_viewptr(ar)
val (ar_ipf1, ar_ipf2 | ar_i) = array_ptr_takeout(pf_ar | ar_p, 
size_of_int(i))
val () = mesh_print(!ar_i)
prval () = arrayptr_addback(pf_ar | ar_p)
  in
mesh_print_loop(i-1, ar)
  end else ()
in
  mesh_print_loop((m.0)-1, m.1)
end

Here is the error message from the compiler:
patscc -tcats /home/tmj90/Goldelish-Engine/source/g_engine.dats
/home/tmj90/Goldelish-Engine/source/g_engine.dats: 79153(line=2750, 
offs=33) -- 79158(line=2750, offs=38): error(3): the linear dynamic 
variable [pf_ar$5913(-1)] is no longer available.
/home/tmj90/Goldelish-Engine/source/g_engine.dats: 79153(line=2750, 
offs=33) -- 79158(line=2750, offs=38): error(3): the dynamic expression 
cannot be assigned the type [S2Eat(S2Etyarr(S2Einvar(S2EVar(7937)); 
S2EVar(7939)), S2EVar(7938))].

I will continue to work on this, and I'll post if I come to a solution.

Re: How do I store a viewtype in an array and then access that value?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

So, I tried to call the prelude's array_ptr_takeout() function, but that 
only works with a pointer of view array_v(), wereas I am using the 
arrayptr() viewtype.  To solve this, I called the cast function 
arrayptr_takeout_viewptr(), which seemed to suit my needs perfectly.  
Here's my code currently:
implement model_print ( m ) = let
  fun mesh_print_loop {l:addr}{i,j:int | 0 <= i+1; i+1 <= j} ..
  ( i: int i, ar: !arrayptr(mesh, l, j)): void =
  if i >= 0 then let
//may need to use the ">>" syntax in order to do the below cast
//step 1: cast arrayptr to array_v & ptr using 
arrayptr_takeout_viewptr()
var ar_copy = ar
val (pf_ar | ar_p) = arrayptr_takeout_viewptr(ar_copy)
//step 2: call array_ptr_takeout() to get the viewtype for the given 
element
val (ar_ipf1, ar_ipf2 | ar_i) = array_ptr_takeout(pf_ar | ar_p, 
size_of_int(i))
  in
mesh_print(!ar_i);
mesh_print_loop(i-1, ar)
  end else ()
in
  mesh_print_loop((m.0)-1, m.1)
end

But, my code is producing the following errors:
patscc -tcats /home/tmj90/Goldelish-Engine/source/g_engine.dats
/home/tmj90/Goldelish-Engine/source/g_engine.dats: 79400(line=2755, 
offs=26) -- 79402(line=2755, offs=28): error(3): the linear dynamic 
variable [ar$5912(-1)] is no longer available.
/home/tmj90/Goldelish-Engine/source/g_engine.dats: 79400(line=2755, 
offs=26) -- 79402(line=2755, offs=28): error(3): the dynamic expression 
cannot be assigned the type [S2Eapp(S2Ecst(arrayptr_vt0ype_addr_int_vtype); 
S2Ecst(mesh), S2EVar(7940), S2EVar(7942))].

I assume the way to fix this would be to change "ar: !arrayptr(mesh, l, j)" 
to "ar: !arrayptr(mesh, l, j) >> ..." in the function inputs, but I'm 
unsure what exactly needs to go in the ".." part.  Any help is appreciated, 
and thanks for the previous suggestion.

How do I store a viewtype in an array and then access that value?

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

So, what I'm trying to do is create a type which resembles the following:

absvt@ype model = [l:addr][n:nat] ( int n, arrayptr(mesh, l, n) )

Where "mesh" is also an absvt@ype.  ATS lets me create this type fine, but 
I run into an issue when I try to index the array in the following code:

implement model_print ( m ) = let
  fun mesh_print_loop {l:addr}{i,j:int | 0 <= i+1; i+1 <= j} ..
  ( i: int i, ar: !arrayptr(mesh, l, j)): void =
  if i >= 0 then let
  in
mesh_print(ar[i]);
mesh_print_loop(i-1, ar)
  end else ()
in
  mesh_print_loop((m.0)-1, m.1)
end

I get the following error messages:

patscc -tcats /home/tmj90/Goldelish-Engine/source/g_engine.dats
/home/tmj90/Goldelish-Engine/source/g_engine.dats: 79208(line=2749,

(tyleq):
The actual term is: S2Ecst(mesh)
The needed term is: S2Einvar(S2EVar(7929->S2Ecst(mesh)))

I've looked at the prelude, and the issue appears to be that all of the 
functions for indexing an array use "t0p" instead of "vt0p," which is what 
I need.  What I'd like to know is, is there cleaner way to do what I'm 
trying to accomplish?  I figure I could write my own function that 
overrides [], but is there another way?

Thank you to anyone who can help me out with this problem.  Have an awesome 
day.

unsolved constraint for termetric being well-founded

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

So, I've been encountering this "unsolved constraint for termetric being 
well-founded" error message, and I'm not sure how to fix it.  Does this 
mean that I'm not being strict enough with types?

Here's my code:

absvt@ype mesh

assume mesh =
[v,t:nat]
[vl,tl:addr]
@{
  v=int v, t=int t, vap=arrayptr(vertex, vl, v), tap=arrayptr(uint32, tl, t)
}

implement mesh_print ( m ) = let
  fun vert_print_loop {i,j:int | 0 <= i+1; i+1 <= j} .. ( i: int i, 
v_arr: &(arrayptr(vertex, j)) ): void =
if not(i < 0) then begin
  vertex_print(v_arr[i]);
  vert_print_loop(i-1, v_arr)
end else ()
  fun tri_print_loop {i,j:int | 0 <= i+1; i+1 <= j} .. ( i: int i, 
t_arr: &(arrayptr(uint32, j)) ): void =
if not(i < 0) then begin
  println!(t_arr[i]);
  tri_print_loop(i-1, t_arr)
end else ()

Re: Issue with conditionally mutating a var twice

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Okay, so gmhwxi's suggestion to use natLt(2) & natLt(3) seems to have 
worked, but I'm having trouble understanding what natLt(2) & natLt(3) 
actually is.  

*Could anyone explain what natLt(2) & natLt(3) mean, please?*  After 
looking at the prelude the definition of natLt() doesn't seem 
self-explanatory.

As for the suggestions to use separate val-declarations in a more 
functional style, my reason for taking this approach is that I am trying to 
replicate some C code in ATS.  *I do agree that this is probably not the 
cleanest solution, I figure that I can revise it later once I get my 
overall project working.*  But I appreciate the suggestions, so thank you.

Going off of what Dambaev said, *it makes sense to prove to the compiler 
that 'i' is >= 0 && < 4, but what sort of statements might I use for this? * 
I worked through chapter 12 of Intro to Programming in ATS, but I'm still 
quite unsure on how to use proofs effectively.  Thanks for this advice, 
Dambaev.

Lastly, *I am running into an issue with indexing an array where the 
compiler says that the function argument must be a left-value.*  I assume 
that 'nxt' is the one that needs to be a left-value, but !nxt doesn't make 
a difference.  Any help that can be provided is appreciated.

Apologies for the long response, I wanted to make sure I responded to as 
many of you as possible, because you've all been really helpful. :)

Here's my updated function:

implement mat4_to_quat ( m ) = let
  val tr = m.xx + m.yy + m.zz
in
  if tr > 0.f then let
val s = $MATH.sqrt(tr + 1.f)
val w = s / 2.f
val x = ( mat4_at(m, 1, 2) - mat4_at(m, 2, 1) ) * (0.5f / s)
val y = ( mat4_at(m, 2, 0) - mat4_at(m, 0, 2) ) * (0.5f / s)
val z = ( mat4_at(m, 0, 1) - mat4_at(m, 1, 0) ) * (0.5f / s)
  in
quat_new(x, y, z, w)
  end else let
val nxt = @[int](1, 2, 0)
var q = @[float][4](0.f)
var i = 0
var j = 0
var k = 0
var s = 0
  in
i := ((if mat4_at(m, 1, 1) > mat4_at(m, 0, 0) then 1 else i):natLt(2));
i := ((if mat4_at(m, 2, 2) > mat4_at(m, i, i) then 2 else i):natLt(3));
*j := nxt[i];  <-- first error message is on this line*
k := nxt[j];
s := $MATH.sqrt( (mat4_at(m, i, i) - (mat4_at(m, j, j), mat4_at(m, k, 
k))) + 1.f );
q[i] := s * 0.5f;
s := (if (s != 0.f) then 0.5f / s else s);
q[3] := (mat4_at(m, j, k) - mat4_at(m, k, j)) * s;
q[j] := (mat4_at(m, i, j) + mat4_at(m, j, i)) * s;
q[k] := (mat4_at(m, i, k) + mat4_at(m, k, i)) * s;
quat_new(q[0], q[1], q[2], q[3])
  end
end


Here's the new error message:

Issue with conditionally mutating a var twice

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

  So, I'm trying to mutate a var twice in order to replicate some C code 
that I am trying to port to ATS.  But, I've been scratching my head as to 
why this would happen, so any help is appreciated.  In an effort to not 
waste your time, I will be showing you the function with my issue along 
with the declarations for the relevant functions & typedefs.  Please ask if 
you'd like me to provide more details that I may have missed.

The function I'm having trouble in:

implement mat4_to_quat ( m ) = let
  val tr = m.xx + m.yy + m.zz
in
  if tr > 0.f then let
val s = $MATH.sqrt(tr + 1.f)
val w = s / 2.f
val x = ( mat4_at(m, 1, 2) - mat4_at(m, 2, 1) ) * (0.5f / s)
val y = ( mat4_at(m, 2, 0) - mat4_at(m, 0, 2) ) * (0.5f / s)
val z = ( mat4_at(m, 0, 1) - mat4_at(m, 1, 0) ) * (0.5f / s)
  in
quat_new(x, y, z, w)
  end else let
val nxt = @[int](1, 2, 0)
var q = @[float][4](0.f)
var i = 0
var j = 0
var k = 0
var s = 0
  in
*i := ((if mat4_at(m, 1, 1) > mat4_at(m, 0, 0) then 1 else i):int);*
*i := ((if mat4_at(m, 2, 2) > mat4_at(m, $showtype(i), i) then 2 else 
i):int);  // <-- this line has the error*
j := nxt[i];
k := nxt[j];
s := $MATH.sqrt( (mat4_at(m, i, i) - (mat4_at(m, j, j), mat4_at(m, k, 
k))) + 1.f );
q[i] := s * 0.5f;
s := (if (s != 0.f) then 0.5f / s else s);
q[3] := (mat4_at(m, j, k) - mat4_at(m, k, j)) * s;
q[j] := (mat4_at(m, i, j) + mat4_at(m, j, i)) * s;
q[k] := (mat4_at(m, i, k) + mat4_at(m, k, i)) * s;
quat_new(q[0], q[1], q[2], q[3])
  end
end


Here's the function's declaration:

fun mat4_to_quat ( m: mat4 ) : quat = "sta#%"


Here's the declaration for mat4_at:

fun mat4_at {x:nat | x < 4}{y:nat | y < 4} ( m: mat4, x: int x, y: int y ) 
: float = "sta#%"

Re: Issues with SDL_mixer interface

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Yea, so, the reason that the suggestion you had for Mix_GetError() wasn't 
working for me was that in the function definition I put "... = 
"mac#Mix_GetError"" at the end which was causing the macro to not apply to 
the function.  To fix this, I changed it to "... = "mac#%"", which caused 
it to work without a hitch.  I will see if the same issue is partially 
behind the issue I am having with Mix_FadeInMusic().

Re: Issues with SDL_mixer interface

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

 So, I made the changes which you suggested, but unfortunately, this 
didn't resolve the issues.  First, I tried modifying the macro for 
Mix_GetError() in the SDL_mixer.cats file to what you suggested, but this 
didn't seem to change the error message.  Perhaps I missed something, 
because I don't have a solid understanding of more complex C macros.  My 
changes can be seen here: 
https://github.com/d4v3y5c0n3s/Goldelish-Engine/blob/master/source/SDL2/SDL_local.cats

 Next, I tried modifying the function definition for Mix_FadeInMusic() 
in SDL_mixer.sats to match your suggested modifacation, but this didn't fix 
the issue.  Your suggestion is actually how I had previously written the 
function, but I had changed it while experimenting to find the cause of the 
issue I was encountering.  When I pushed my changes to Github, I forgot to 
revert that function to what it had been previously.  My changes can be 
seen here: 
https://github.com/d4v3y5c0n3s/Goldelish-Engine/blob/master/source/SDL2/SDL_mixer.sats

Issues with SDL_mixer interface

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

 Ever since my previous question, I've been running into two issues 
with my SDL_mixer bindings.  The first, is that I get a warning message 
whenever I use the function Mix_GetError() (the definition for this 
function may be found here: 
https://github.com/d4v3y5c0n3s/Goldelish-Engine/blob/master/source/SDL2/SDL_mixer.sats).
  
The warning is as follows:

g_audio_dats.c: In function 'audio_sound_play': 
/home/d4v3y/ATS2-Postiats-0.4.0/ccomp/runtime/pats_ccomp_instrset.h:276:35: 
warning: 
assignment discards 'const' qualifier fr
om pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers] 
#define ATSINSmove(tmp, val) (tmp = val)

While this is only a warning, I would still like to know what is going 
wrong here.  I looked at ATS-contrib's SDL binding, and found that the 
SDL_GetError() function there had the exact same problem.  (The file for 
this function definition may be found here: 
https://github.com/githwxi/ATS-Postiats-contrib/blob/master/contrib/SDL2/SATS/SDL_error.sats
)

 The second issue that I'm running into has to do with my 
Mix_FadeInMusic() function (which is defined here: 
https://github.com/d4v3y5c0n3s/Goldelish-Engine/blob/master/source/SDL2/SDL_mixer.sats).
  
When I use this function, I get the following error message:

g_audio_dats.c: In function 'audio_music_play': 
g_audio_dats.c:931:11: error: storage size of 'tmpref41' isn't known

 The file *where I've been receiving these errors* is available here: 
https://github.com/d4v3y5c0n3s/Goldelish-Engine/blob/master/source/g_audio.dats.
  
My full source code is available on Github here: 
https://github.com/d4v3y5c0n3s/Goldelish-Engine.

 Any help is appreciated, and if you'd like me to provide any more 
information, please ask for it.  Also, if anyone knows of a great resource 
for understanding how the internals of ATS work, please let me know.  I 
have a feeling that if I better understood how ATS worked, I would also 
better understand what to do when I encounter error messages such as these.

Re: Declarations of external values & functions from separate file showing up as "undeclared"

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

Yea, creating too many .sats files definitely makes things very 
complicated.  The reason I have so many is because I am re-implementing 
some C code in ATS.  My mistake here was that I did not fully understand 
the differences between a C .h file and an ATS .sats file.  Also, I avoided 
using any .hats files because documentation on them is extremely scarce.

Thank you for your reply!  This helps a lot.

Declarations of external values & functions from separate file showing up as "undeclared"

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

 For roughly a week now, I've been having this issue where PATSCC 
successfully typechecks my file, but when it tries to compile it to C an 
error is produced due to GCC not seeing the values/functions that I am 
using.  These values and functions are declared in a separate file, which 
is staload-ed in properly.  After some testing, I was able to determine 
that when my code was inserted into the ATS-contrib SDL library code, no 
such errors were produced.  This most likely means that *the issue is with 
my Makefile, and not the code itself.*  If you'd like to see my code and/or 
the Makefile, it is available in my Github repository with is linked below.

For anyone who takes the time to try and answer my question, thank you so, 
so much.  And if you have any questions, just let me know.

Nice catch.  I guess I've just been looking at the same code for too long.  
Unfortunately, fixing it doesn't resolve the problem.  I'll update my code 
on Github with that fix, and get back to it tomorrow.  By the way, thanks 
for the swift response! :D

"error(parsing): the keyword [:] is needed" message despite code appearing to be fine

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

So, I've been encountering this "keyword [:] is needed" error, and I can't 
figure out what the issue is.  I've been compiling my code in with a 
Makefile, and I know that there are many issues the compiler would pick up 
on because much of the code is incomplete.  Here are the first errors which 
are showing up for me:

And here is my code:

fn vec2_hash {} ( v: vec2 ) : int = "sta#%"

fn vec2_smootherstep {} ( v1: vec2, v2: vec2, amount: vec2 ) : vec2 "sta#%"

I know that this kind of error message means that somewhere I need to 
insert some colons, but I don't know why the compiler seems to be telling 
me to place colons in the incorrect spots.  Am I missing something 
obvious?  Could it be that because my code is incomplete, there are too 
many errors and thus the compiler makes them appear in the wrong part of 
the codebase?  Any help is appreciated.  Full source code for my project is 
on github (https://github.com/d4v3y5c0n3s/Goldelish-Engine) if you'd like 
to see further details.

Re: "fopen: No such file or directory" Issue When Compiling a Simple Project

Okay, you were right.  My PATH was messed up, I had accidentally put the 
$PATSHOME variable within itself, for some reason.  Now it compiles fine.  
Thanks so much!

"fopen: No such file or directory" Issue When Compiling a Simple Project

Hello, so I've installed ATS and I am trying to compile a simple 'hello 
world' program.  Here's what I enter into the terminal:

It finds the file fine, but I keep getting this error:

*fopen: No such file or directory exit(ATS): 
[fopen(":/home/d4v3y/ATS2-Postiats/prelude/fixity.ats", "r")] failed*
Using the 'ls' command reveals that this file, 'fixity.ats', does indeed 
exist, as shown below:
ls /home/d4v3y/ATS2-Postiats/prelude/ 

*CATS  SATS basics_gen.sats  basics_sta.sats  fixity.ats

Does anyone know what this error could be?

Problem in Makefile: Can't Find 'atsmake-post.mk' and Other Probelms

[d4v3y_5c0n3s]

First off, I would like to say that I am new to ATS, and have been 
beginning to learn it.  I've really been enjoying it so far, and I decided 
to start a long-term project in order to help me get better at ATS.  So, I 
found the Corange game engine (https://github.com/orangeduck/Corange) and 
decided to reimplement it in ATS (
https://github.com/d4v3y5c0n3s/Goldelish-Engine).  Unfortunately, I am 
having issues figuring out how to get the Makefile properly set up.  I've 
looked at examples provided in ATS2-Postiats and ATS-Postiats-contrib.  
Basically, I'm trying to take Corange's Makefile and make it work with 
ATS.  I'm trying to figure out how Make works, and I'm starting to 
understand it, but I've been stuck due to having trouble finding answers 
online.  Currently, when I try to call 'make' on the command line I get the 
following:
Makefile:74: warning: overriding recipe for target 'testall' 
Makefile:72: warning: ignoring old recipe for target 'testall' 
Makefile:76: warning: overriding recipe for target 'testall' 
Makefile:74: warning: ignoring old recipe for target 'testall' 
Makefile:78: :/home/d4v3y/ATS2-Postiats/share/atsmake-post.mk: No such file 
or directory 
make: *** No rule to make target 
':/home/d4v3y/ATS2-Postiats/share/atsmake-post.mk'.  Stop
.
You can find my Makefile in the repo for the engine I'm working on here: (
https://github.com/d4v3y5c0n3s/Goldelish-Engine/blob/master/Makefile)
And the Makefile for Corange is here: (
https://github.com/orangeduck/Corange/blob/master/Makefile)

Thank you for any help!
