[swift-dev] Looking to get involved again

Hi, I'd like to get back into contributing to the Swift standard library and/or compiler, and be a better contributor than I was last time. Is the best place to look still starter bugs on the Jira? It would be nice to work on something of larger scope, if it's at all feasible to do so while puttin

Re: [swift-dev] Random() in the standard library

I am also just a random guy, and I agree with much of what Brent says, but my personal opinion is that the standard library should be allowed to grow in the future to encompass areas whose generality and usefulness are comparable to those of current standard library constructs. I would consider

[swift-dev] Error running build-script -R?

Hi, I've running into an issue where I can't build Swift successfully. Right before it errors out I get the following message: ``` :0: error: Swift does not support the SDK 'MacOSX10.11.sdk' [564/990] Generating UnicodeExtendedGraphemeClusters.cpp from UnicodeExtendedGraphemeClusters.cpp.gyb wi

I don't think the failure was caused by my change? I can spin up a VM and try running the test suite there. ``` TEST 'Swift :: AutolinkExtract/import_archive.swift' FAILED Script: -- (...) Exit Code: 254 Command Output (stderr): -- <>clang-3.9: error:

Re: [swift-dev] [Swift CI] Build Failure: 0. OSS - Swift Incremental RA - Ubuntu 14.04 (master) #5220

The test that's failing is a test that should be unrelated to the change I made (I added a few tests and removed two comments from `String.swift`). I can spin up a Linux VM to investigate further if you'd like. Austin On Wed, Jun 8, 2016 at 9:33 AM, wrote: > [FAILURE] oss-swift-incremental-RA-l

Re: [swift-dev] Please remove your Swift build directory

Hello, I'm still seeing errors when I try invoking the build script with `-x`. I've updated all the repositories (everything that lives alongside the 'swift' repo, as well as that repo itself) and deleted my build folder completely. I see the following errors multiple times before the build termi

[swift-dev] Importing .swift file into REPL?

Hello developers, Is there a way to import a .swift source file into the interactive REPL? There are times I'd like to debug code by importing it into the REPL and then typing in various interactive commands. However, copy-pasting does not always work properly, especially if the code is long an

I'm really sorry for dropping the ball and disappearing off the list. I'd like to help out if I can. I'll check out the current branch tomorrow and see what the status of the work is, but let me know if everything is done already/there's something in particular that should be worked on. Austin On

[swift-dev] Understanding runtime entry points

Hello, I'm trying to better understand how calls are made between the Swift standard library code and the runtime entry points. I've read through most of the documentation in the repo but still have some questions. More specifically, here's an example: the '_EnumMirror' struct below represents

Hello, First, some background. I'm currently working on refactoring the way mirrors are handled within the Swift standard library (conversion from use of _Reflectable and _MirrorType to CustomReflectable). Note that the _MirrorType protocol exposes an 'objectIdentifier' property which is only rel
