i'm using 2 functions simultaneously, one that takes input with getChar and other that draws some characters con the terminal, however, i'm using ansi-terminal to move the cursor on the screen
the problem is that when i compile throws the next error
user error (pattern match failure in do expression at libraries\Win32\System\Win32\Types.hsc
this only happens when i set "+RTS --io-manager=native" flag, but that is necesary 'cause getChar doesn's work properly without it
This has been fixed in version 2.12.0.1 of Win32. See this issue.
If you're using cabal I think you can make a cabal.project file with these contents:
packages: .
constraints: Win32 >= 2.12.0.1
Or if you use stack I believe you can add Win32-2.12.0.1 to your extra-deps in your stack.yaml.

I'm stepping through some Swift code in Xcode and I'd like to watch values. Following the advice in many of the answers here (e.g. this one) I can add the expression to the local variables window.
The breakpoint I am on is the last line of this fragment from the Starscream library (by daltoniam) which I include as a pod.
for i in 0..<dataLength {
buffer[offset] = data[i] ^ maskKey[i % MemoryLayout<UInt32>.size]
offset += 1
}
var total = 0
I've added two expressions to watch:
buffer[0] and
MemoryLayout<UInt32>.size
For both the value I see is "invalid expression":
These expressions are clearly are not invalid, if they were the code would have thrown an exception when they were encountered executing the previous few lines. What am I missing? How should I watch and not get 'invalid expression'
N.B. If I call p buffer[0] from the lldb prompt I get the cryptic error:
(lldb) p buffer[0]
error: warning: :12:9: warning: initialization of variable
'$__lldb_error_result' was never used; consider replacing with assignment to '_'
or removing it

I have tried changing the podfile (as per Jim's answer) so that it explicitly gets the debug code:
pod 'Starscream', '~> 3.0.6', :configuration => 'Debug'
and I have even gone as far as removing the pods, cloning Starscream, and including the source code as a sub-project. I still get the same error.
An expression that accesses buffer[0] where buffer is a UnsafeMutablePointer works correctly in the expression parser when I'm stopped in some simple function. And from your experience with the expr command directly, it looks like your problem is not with this particular expression. Rather it looks like there's something about the context you are stopped in that's tripping up the expression parser altogether.
Make sure that you aren't using binary cocoapods's and that you've rebuilt all your code and all the pods you are using have been rebuilt from scratch with the same swift compiler. At present, lldb and swiftc are version locked - lldb can only debug programs built with the swiftc that it ships with.
If that doesn't fix the issue, then we'll need to figure out what about the particular function you are stopped in that's causing the problem. This seems like the sort of thing better dealt with by filing a bug with the swift project (http://bugs.swift.org).
I have a CUDA project in a .cu file that I would like to compile to a .mex file using mexcuda. Because my code makes use of the 64-bit floating point atomic operation atomicAdd(double *, double), which is only supposed for GPU devices of compute capability 6.0 or higher, I need to specify this as a flag when I am compiling.
In my standard IDE, this works fine, but when compiling with mexcuda, this is not working as I would like. In this post on MathWorks, it was suggested to use the following command (edited from the comment by Joss Knight):
mexcuda('-v', 'mexGPUExample.cu', 'NVCCFLAGS=-gencode=arch=compute_60,code=sm_60')
but when I use this command on my file, the verbose option spits out the following line last:
Building with 'NVIDIA CUDA Compiler'.
nvcc -c --compiler-options=/Zp8,/GR,/W3,/EHs,/nologo,/MD -
gencode=arch=compute_30,code=sm_30 -gencode=arch=compute_50,code=sm_50 -
gencode=arch=compute_60,code=sm_60 -
gencode=arch=compute_70,code=\"sm_70,compute_70\"
(and so on), which signals to me that the specified flag was not passed to the nvcc properly. And indeed, compilation fails with the following error:
C:/path/mexGPUExample.cu(35): error: no instance of overloaded function "atomicAdd" matches
the argument list. Argument types are: (double *, double)
The only other post I could find on this topic was this post on SO, but it is almost three years old and seemed to me more like a workaround - one which I do not understand even after some research, otherwise I would have tried it - rather than a true solution to the problem.
Is there a setting I missed, or can this simply not be done without a workaround?
I was able to work my way around this problem after some messing around with the standard xml-files in the MatLab folder. The following steps allowed me to compile using -mexcuda:
-1) Go to the folder C:\Program Files\MATLAB\-version-\toolbox\distcomp\gpu\extern\src\mex\win64, which contains xml-files for different versions of msvcpp;
-2) Make a backup of the file that corresponds to the version you are using. In my case, I made a copy of the file nvcc_msvcpp2017 and named it nvcc_msvcpp2017_old, to always have the original.
-3) Open nvcc_msvcppYEAR with notepad, and scroll to the following block of lines:
COMPILER="nvcc"
COMPFLAGS="--compiler-options=/Zp8,/GR,/W3,/EHs,/nologo,/MD $ARCHFLAGS"
ARCHFLAGS="-gencode=arch=compute_30,code=sm_30 -gencode=arch=compute_50,code=sm_50 -gencode=arch=compute_60,code=sm_60 -gencode=arch=compute_70,code=\"sm_70,compute_70\" $NVCC_FLAGS"
COMPDEFINES="--compiler-options=/D_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE,/D_SCL_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE,/D_SECURE_SCL=0,$MATLABMEX"
MATLABMEX="/DMATLAB_MEX_FILE"
OPTIMFLAGS="--compiler-options=/O2,/Oy-,/DNDEBUG"
INCLUDE="-I"$MATLABROOT\extern\include" -I"$MATLABROOT\simulink\include""
DEBUGFLAGS="--compiler-options=/Z7"
-4) Remove the architectures that will not allow your code to compile, i.e. all the architecture flags below 60 in my case:
ARCHFLAGS="-gencode=arch=compute_60,code=sm_60 -gencode=arch=compute_70,code=\"sm_70,compute_70\" $NVCC_FLAGS"
-5) I was able to compile using mexcuda after this. You do not need to specify any architecture flags in the mexcuda call.
-6) (optional) I suppose you want to revert this change after you are done with the project that required you to make this change, if you want to ensure maximum portability of the code you will compile after this.
Note: you will need administrator permission to make these changes.
I've installed GnuCOBOL 2.2 on my Ubuntu 17.04 system. I've written a basic hello world program to test the compiler.
1 IDENTIFICATION DIVISION.
2 PROGRAM-ID. HELLO-WORLD.
3 *---------------------------
4 DATA DIVISION.
5 *---------------------------
6 PROCEDURE DIVISION.
7 DISPLAY 'Hello, world!'.
8 STOP RUN.
This program is entitled HelloWorld.cbl. When I compile the program with the command
cobc HelloWorld.cbl
HelloWorld.so is produced. When I attempt to run the compiled program using
cobcrun HelloWorld
I receive the following error:
libcob: entry point 'HelloWorld' not found
Can anyone explain to me what an entry point is in GnuCOBOL, and perhaps suggest a way to fix the problem and successfully execute this COBOL program?
According to the official manual of GNUCOBOL, you should compile your code with:
cobc -x HelloWorld.cbl
then run it with
./HelloWorld
You can also read GNUCOBOL wiki page which contains some exmaples for further information.
P.S. As Simon Sobisch said, If you change your file name to HELLO-WORLD.cbl to match the program ID, the same commands that you have used will be ok:
cobc HELLO-WORLD.cbl
cobcrun HELLO-WORLD
Can anyone explain to me what an entry point is in GnuCOBOL, and perhaps suggest a way to fix the problem and successfully execute this COBOL program?
An entry point is a point where you may enter a shared object (this is actually more C then COBOL).
GnuCOBOL generates entry points for each PROGRAM-ID, FUNCTION-ID and ENTRY. Therefore your entry point is HELLO-WORLD (which likely gets a conversion as - is no valid identifier in ANSI C - you won't have to think about this when CALLing a program as the conversion will be done internal).
Using cobcrun internally does:
search for a shared object (in your case HelloWord), as this is found (because you've generated it) it will be loaded
search for an entry point in all loaded modules - which isn't found
There are three possible options to get this working:
As mentioned in Ho1's answer: use cobc -x, the reason that this works is because you don't generate a shared object at all but a C main which is called directly (= the entry point doesn't apply at all)
preload the shared object and calling the program by its PROGRAM-ID (entry point), either manually with COB_PRE_LOAD=HelloWorld cobcrun HELLO-WORLD or through cobcrun (option available since GnuCOBOL 2.x) cobcrun -M HelloWorld HELLO-WORLD
change the PROGRAM-ID to match the source name (either rename or change the source, I'd do the second: PROGRAM-ID. HelloWorld.)
My Intent
I have an image generated by BitBake on which I'm interested in changing the window manager to metacity or maybe something similar.
My Process
I've added require recipes-graphics/images/core-image-x11.bb into my core recipe, which provides a simple Matchbox terminal window but seemingly no other functionality. If I add matchbox-desktop and matchbox-session-sato, it adds a bit more usability but not what I'm looking for.
I've included the default package from the metacity_2.34.13.bb recipe from the meta-gnome layer from the OpenEmbedded Metadata Index in the IMAGE_INSTALL variable of my core image. This installs several components including a metacity command in /usr/bin. If I run that command, I get the following message:
GLib-GIO-Message: Using the 'memory' GSettings backend. Your settings will not be saved or shared with other applications
(metacity:1124): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: Settings schema 'org.gnome.metacity' is not installed
Trace/breakpoint trap
I've navigated to /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas and run glib-compile-schemas ., then run:
startx
metacity --replace
again. Now, the output is:
Window manager error: Unable to open X display
I haven't found a clear solution to this error which applies to my specific situation.
Update (2/29):
I may have now found a solution to this error, using these commands:
X&
export DISPLAY=:0
metacity&
At this point, I seem to be running something on one of my VTs. I can run demos like glxgears in that VT (glxgears is included in the mesa-demos recipe), but I don't know how to actually create a usable environment.
My question(s)
I'm not using much from meta-openembedded/meta-gnome (just metacity) or meta/recipes-gnome (adwaita-icon-theme, gnome-desktop3, gsettings-desktop-schemas and gtk+3), so am I missing some recipe which automates the addition of metacity?
(if not Question 1) How can I solve the error Window manager error: Unable to open X display?
The x11-common recipe adds a X session script that will run /usr/bin/x-session-manager: that is responsible for starting your desktop environment.
The way to implement a new session/DE in OE-Core is to use update-alternatives for "x-session-manager": see the matchbox-session recipe for the default implementation and mini-x-session recipe for an alternative.
mini-x-session might be modifiable for your needs so you don't need to write a new one: A /etc/mini_x/session file like this might do the trick:
# start any apps here, e.g. "my-desktop &"
exec metacity
Going from this (a running window manager) to "usable environment" might still be lots and lots of work, depending on your definition of usable.
I'm trying to resurrect an old (1999 or earlier) project written in Scheme (PLT-Scheme, using the mzscheme interpreter (?) commandline tool). To make the matters worse, I don't know Scheme, or Lisp (in fact, I want to learn, but that's another story).
I have the source code of the project at:
github.com/akavel/sherman
Now, when running the code, it bails out with an error message like below:
Sherman runtime version 0.5
Hosted on MzScheme version 52, Copyright (c) 1995-98 PLT (Matthew Flatt)
reference to undefined identifier: list->block
(I've tried PLT-Scheme versions 52, 53, 103, 103p1. Earlier versions don't allow mzscheme -L option, which is referenced in the sherman.bat script used in the project. Later versions also have some more serious problems with the code or options.)
The difficulty is, that from what I see, list->block actually is defined - see: collects/sherman/BLOCK.SS line 48. So, what is wrong?
To run the code, I perform the following steps:
Download PLT-Scheme v. 103p1 (from the old versions download page - first closing the "PLT Scheme is now Racket" banner) - for Windows, use: mz-103p1-bin-i386-win32.zip.
Unzip (e.g. to directory c:\PLT).
Copy c:\sherman\collects\sherman directory with contents to: c:\PLT\collects\sherman (where c:\sherman contains the contents of the github repository).
Run cmd.exe, then cd c:\sherman.
set PATH=c:\PLT;%PATH%
sherman.bat run trivial.s
this command is in fact, from what I understand, equivalent to:
(require-library "runtime.ss" "sherman")
(parameterize ((current-namespace sherman-namespace)) (load "trivial.s"))
(current-namespace sherman-namespace)
After that, I get the error as described above (MzScheme version would be reported as 103p1 or whatever).
Could you help me solve the problem?
EDIT 2: SOLVED!
To whom it may concern, I've added a fully fledged "How to use this project" instruction on the project page, detailing the solution to the problem thanks to soegaard's help.
In short:
copy trivial.s trivial.rs
rem (the above is workaround for problems with 'r2s.exe < trivial.r > trivial.rs')
sherman.bat compile trivial.rs
sherman.bat run trivial.zo
rem (or: sherman.bat run trivial.ss)
Not an answer, but a few notes too big for a comment.
1. Sanity Check
The error message says list->block is undefined.
Make sure that the code in block.ss is run, by
inserting (display "block.ss is loaded!") in block.ss
just to make sure, the code is run.
2. Random Thoughts
The file blocks.ss begins with:
(require-library "functios.ss")
(require-library "synrule.ss")
(require-library "stream.ss" "sherman")
The file "sherman/stream.ss" is in the repository,
but where is "synrule.ss" and "functios.ss" ?
Ah... This code is old! Here is a description of
how require-library worked. It lists functios.ss
and synrule.ss as part of MzLib.
http://www.informatik.uni-kiel.de/~scheme/doc/mzscheme/node158.htm
Let's check out how require-library worked:
When require-library is used to load a file, the library name and the
resulting value(s) are recored in a table associated with the current
namespace. If require-library is evaluated for a library that is
already registered in the current namespace's load table, then the
library is not loaded again; the result(s) recorded in the load table
is returned, instead.
So when the code in block.ss is run, the names are stored in a namespace. If the current namespace is the wrong one, when the code in block.ss is evaluated, it would explain you error message of list->block being undefined.
