Sync is via ports.
BTW, "ports" does not need to mean "sockets"
The host level can provide a more direct mechanism for inter-task 
sync and comm.

Locking? With shared memory, mods could trounce each other.

Carl, about parse, is that a pain (in the ass)  to have access (read-only) 
to the rule stack  while parsing ?
BrianH

[18317]
Wow, sounds interesting. Why would you need that?
Carl

[18318]
I'm not a fan of locking, but sometimes it's necessary. Otherwise, 
mods can be "cloned" for multi-task uniqueness.

to know, if we can break the parsing in any place, and continue it 
later
to have async parsing possible
BrianH

Copy-on-write?
Carl
28-Sep-2009
[18322]
So, you want "parse continuations".
Steeve
28-Sep-2009
[18323]
sort of... ::-)
Pekr

streamed parsing? :-)
BrianH

[18325]
Incremental parsing.
Carl
28-Sep-2009
[18326]
Yes, I understand. That would need to be 3.1.  We do not want to 
delay 3.0.
Steeve
28-Sep-2009
[18327]
sort of... :-)
Carl

Anyway... Pekr.... I want to note one final thing.
Pekr
28-Sep-2009
[18329]
listening :-)
BrianH

I figured out how to do PARSE on seekable ports, so that might handle 
a lot of the problems.

We need a way to make the "todo list" accessible and we need users 
to help us maintain it.
An example is this...

Carl, you mentioned a while ago that you urged us to work on the 
docs. Does this mean we can fill out the function reference with 
examples without them being overwritten?
Carl

Maxim needs some changes for extensions... and has posted them somewhere, 
but I'm not sure where.
Pekr

Chat ... it was about callbacks IIRC and some ideas ...
Carl
28-Sep-2009
[18336]
Henrik, yes... please!  Every edit is saved.
BrianH

In R3 chat, plls a referenced web address.
Pekr

#5045 in Chat ...
Carl
28-Sep-2009
[18339x3]
But, we can also add locking to the docs... if we want.
Pekr, for some things, I need more of a todo list rather than message 
thread.
I think it is ok to post it in CureCode, since that's easy to track.
BrianH
28-Sep-2009
[18342]
Speaking of which, add finishing the PROTECT changes to the list. 
All details in CureCode.
Carl
28-Sep-2009
[18343]
Even if I've said, "don't post it there"... I now say, better there 
than nowhere.
Pekr
28-Sep-2009
[18344]
so why just not to chat upon some areas and fill in already good 
project-plan?
Carl
28-Sep-2009
[18345x2]
Pekr, yes good.
So, when and where?
Pekr
28-Sep-2009
[18347x2]
Carl - R3 Chat is not nowhere, no? It was created to be a developer's 
tool too. But - we can make projects-plan.html a wiki page, so we 
can edit it and fill it with detail?

Using the docs wiki, not DocBase.

(I am quite sure that BrianH has some kind of microwave beam and 
reads my thoughts.)
Pekr

Carl

Pekr: what do you mean "R3 Chat is not nowhere, no?"
BrianH
28-Sep-2009
[18353]
I'm running you in simulation :)
Pekr

[18354]
BrianH: now what is some secret RT's plan? Come on - you can read 
Carl's mind, no? :-)
Carl
28-Sep-2009
[18355]
Lol. :)
BrianH
28-Sep-2009
[18356]
It's a secret :)

Again about parse, there was that proposal to execute words bunded 
with functions and to parse their result instead of doing nothing 
currently.
It would allow to construct dynamic rules.
Any opinion ?
Pekr
28-Sep-2009
[18358]
Carl - because you said you need more than particular thread posted. 
So I replied, that R3 Chat was supposed to be a streamlined and isolated 
Dev comm channel for us, and as such is not "nowhere", but now I 
can see I mixed two your replies, so forget it ...
Carl
28-Sep-2009
[18359]
Steeve, post that to the parse group, and I will answer it.
Pekr
28-Sep-2009
[18360]
OK, to get back focused - so what is NEXT? :-) Do we rework the priority 
plan? Do we need to? Projects-plan needs imo few edits, no?
Steeve

i already posted it, and you said it was interesting but the other 
people didn't react...
