Small improvement discussion: Use `let` to lock variable previously declared as `var`

I'm sure the solution I [posted](https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/9177#60225) earlier can be used at the same level where variable is declared. Although, it has the caveat that variable must be marked immutable at the same scope level where it was declared. Maybe it has other flaws. I haven't tested

Is it possible to create a blockchain with the nim programming language?

It's just a systemic algorithm, Perl, Python, even shell's script will get it into the work Let alone Nim, of course, whicvh'd construct it perfectly it's akin mostly to singly linked lists but data is stored in each block using Merkle trees go <

Small improvement discussion: Use `let` to lock variable previously declared as `var`

Using a view the generated code boils down to one pointer copy. import std / [macros, genasts] {.experimental: "views"} macro immut(n: typed) = if n.kind notin {nnkSym, nnkHiddenDeref}: error(

Small improvement discussion: Use `let` to lock variable previously declared as `var`

Yea the two hacks I provided do not allow the call at the same level as the original variable it has to abide by the shadowing rules.

Small improvement discussion: Use `let` to lock variable previously declared as `var`

Yeah, that makes sense. Btw, you can't use `immut` at the top level either. Too bad there doesn't seem to be a way to avoid any runtime cost.

Small improvement discussion: Use `let` to lock variable previously declared as `var`

The issue with this is it copies `n` if you dont have cursors(orc/arc) so the template is less copy heavy.

Small improvement discussion: Use `let` to lock variable previously declared as `var`

Nevermind, you can shadow a var in a proc, but you can't do it at the top level.j proc test(i: var int) = let i = i # works in a proc #i = i + 1 echo i var a = 100 test(a) let a = a # doesn't work here Run

Small improvement discussion: Use `let` to lock variable previously declared as `var`

That's awesome! Played around with it, and it can be as simple as this: import std / [macros, genasts] macro immut(n: typed) = result = genAst(name = ident(n.repr), n): let name = n proc doThing(i: var int) =

Connect protocol

Encountered this recently Looking over it. Seems to be a really simple layer over regular HTTP 1.1 and HTTP 2.0. Could be interesting to have around in Nim.

thriftcore - Apache Thrift primitives

I still have this code lying around but it looks like everyone is deprecating their Thrift endpoints. Which is unfortunate since gRPC is quite a pain due to its weird use of TLS features.

Small improvement discussion: Use `let` to lock variable previously declared as `var`

Well a similar hack can be done in that case as well but it's still dependent on scopes. import std/[macros, genasts] macro immut(n: typed) = if n.kind notin {nnkSym, nnkHiddenDeref}: error("Expected a variable", n) let (n, name) = if n.

Honestly any hosting providers that allows linux binaries to be installed or that you have access to github to build nim yourself. Since you can run the nim compiler and virtually anything.

How to run testament Exe-Test-Files in a different Folder

I am just working my way into `testament` and wonder if it is possible to have the .exe files that `testament` creates for each test in the same folder, automatically created in a different folder (like: `project/builds/test/bin`) One possibility I have found is to include something like this in

Nim v2: what would you change?

What irks me the most is that `{.nimcall.}` is not the same as `{.cdecl.}`, even though they're functionally identical on every platform except for win32. Making {.nimcall.} == {.cdecl.} would remove a substantial chunk of ffi friction, and wouldn't change anything, practically speaking. So tha

What are the best hosting companies to host systems written in the Nim language?

I think the most important thing is that you have shell access, so that you can configure systemd services (or similar) and your webserver. In contrast to php, which usually runs as a webserver module, alongside the webserver, nim applications tend to be stand alone applications that the webserv

What are the best hosting companies to host systems written in the Nim language?

There isn't really anything Nim specific that would apply for a host. In general for something like Wordpress you need a machine with PHP installed (and preferably updated and configured reasonably well). Nim can run pretty much anywhere, although for a web service I would recommend something wi

This makes it unreadable, correct? I was looking to make it read-only after several modificaitons, starting as a avar but ending up as if initilaized using `let`.
