Dude this shit is sick!
I just set both up and my code is lit up! (with errors..:-)

Good job.

Awesome. I'm curious if there are any benchmarks that can help us 
improve allocators. -- Andrei

Yes, although not a lot of current work is available in book format at 
all. Also, I've heard Pierce's second book "Advanced Topics in Types and 
Programming Languages" is just way esoteric. Maybe Timon has some more 
recommendations. -- Andrei

Sorry I wasn't clear. The free entry is only for the 8:30 talk.


Slides are nice, I hope the talk was good. His notion of total 
functions gets a bit weakened by the existence of the default 
constructor (e.g. if the return type has a default value, you 
can always write a total function that just returns it). In 
order to avoid such degenerate cases, he'd need to add the 
requirement that the function is also injective (maps different 
inputs to different outputs). Then his examples are meaningful 
(and beautiful).


In D, the closest we get to the notion of a total function is a 
nothrow pure function. As far as I know we cannot enforce 
injectivity.



Andrei


Just to be clear, this wasn't slides for the talk Walter was 
attending. I'm not sure if Walter was going to the Lightning 
Talks, the Concepts/Range talk, or the Biggest Security Fails 
talk. This was just a separate one from earlier in the week.

Ocean v2.1.1 released

2016-09-22 Thread Leandro Lucarella via Digitalmars-d-announce

Hello dlang-forum-people!

After almost 3 months since the open sourcing of Ocean, I wanted 
to give a small project update.


Yesterday both Ocean v2.1.0 and the patch release v2.1.1 were 
released. This is first minor public release since the open 
sourcing. Minor releases include new features, and since v2.1.0 
consists on the merging of 2 minor releases in our v1.x.x 
internal branch, it is packed with quite a few new stuff. You can 
see the full changelog(s) here:

https://github.com/sociomantic-tsunami/ocean/releases/tag/v2.1.0-preview
https://github.com/sociomantic-tsunami/ocean/releases/tag/v2.1.1-preview

In the meantime, we also did 8 maintenance releases for the v2.0 
series (most containing only 1 bug fix, but some containing 
almost up to 10):

https://github.com/sociomantic-tsunami/ocean/releases/tag/v2.0.1-preview
https://github.com/sociomantic-tsunami/ocean/releases/tag/v2.0.2-preview
https://github.com/sociomantic-tsunami/ocean/releases/tag/v2.0.3-preview
https://github.com/sociomantic-tsunami/ocean/releases/tag/v2.0.4-preview
https://github.com/sociomantic-tsunami/ocean/releases/tag/v2.0.5-preview
https://github.com/sociomantic-tsunami/ocean/releases/tag/v2.0.6-preview
https://github.com/sociomantic-tsunami/ocean/releases/tag/v2.0.7-preview
https://github.com/sociomantic-tsunami/ocean/releases/tag/v2.0.8-preview

All this is in the good side. On the bad side, we still couldn't 
move the whole development to the open source project (the main 
blocker still being setting up automated testing for the open 
source project), so for the v2.1.0 release we just included all 
the changes as a big commit instead of porting all the individual 
commits we made in our internal project. This is just a 
temporary, transitional issue, though and patch releases still 
get the commits cherry picked properly, as it is much easier than 
with full minor releases :)


All that said, I want to clarify again, that the `-preview` mark 
doesn't really mean this is not production ready, is the exact 
same code we are using internally at Sociomantic, is just that we 
want to make clear that development is still not fully moved to 
the open source project and also having different tags for the 
internal and external releases makes maintaining both a bit 
easier for now.


Finally, I would love to hear if somebody is using, or have used 
or adapted any code in Ocean.


Thanks!
