[10:42:44] <Darke> Hi.
[11:01:05] <wjp> hi
[11:04:15] <Darke> Greetings.
[11:24:31] <Darke> wjp: Just a question about pentagram, there's all these '#ifndef ALPHA_LINUX_CXX' scattered through some of the header files that were shared with exult, are they actually needed in pentagram? What are they for anyway? Compiling on an alpha platform would be my first guess.
[11:30:07] <Fingolfin> yo wjp
[11:30:18] <Fingolfin> compiling on alpha, yeah
[11:30:33] <Fingolfin> jameson added those to work around problems with the Alpha CXX compiler
[11:30:46] <wjp> if you're looking for him, he's often in #scummvm (creichen)
[11:32:19] <Darke> When were they last used? And when were they added? *grin* It's just they're #ifdefing out standard parts of the C++ library (like <iostream> and <string>), and it'd be nice _not_ to have them in there. *grin*
[11:33:23] <wjp> alpha_kludges.h includes those headers
[11:34:31] <Darke> I've just noticed there's plenty of non #ifdef-ed calls to <string> and <iostream> in exult and in pentagram, unless we handle all the cases, there's really no point in handling only some of them.
[11:34:40] * Darke looks.
[11:36:08] * Darke checks in pentagram/old. Nope, no alpha_kludges.h. I guess that's as good a reason as any to dike them out. *grin*
[11:37:11] * Darke is just moving some stuff to the pentagram/ module. He's not particularly enthusiastic at taking the last three years worth of organic baggage grown over the old exult code with him. *grin*
[11:38:10] <wjp> heh :-)
[11:40:23] <Darke> Oh, who wrote Args anyway? I need to hunt them down and tickle them until they scream. *grin* What sort of variable names are bval/sval/ival/uval/dbval/sival/duval? (Other then cryptic, I got that much. *grin*)
[11:46:21] * Darke sets up a precariously balanced set of paint buckets over the nearby door, so he can 'get' that creature if he ever walks in here. *grin*
[13:39:28] * Darke can no longer resist the seductive siren call of sleep. Goodnight!
[13:39:37] <wjp> night :-)
[13:39:41] --- Darke is now known as Darke|afk
[13:41:13] * Darke|afk denies being wordy, and claims that his detractors that say he is, are just envious of his masterful command of the english vocabulary. *noddlenod* He also claims he's gone now. *grin*
[13:44:21] <wjp> hi
[13:44:27] <Colourless> hi
[13:49:02] <Colourless> Darke, you missed me!
[14:04:08] <Colourless> so wjp, are drake and myself insane with all our pentagram ideas?
[14:12:25] <Fingolfin> drake?
[14:12:26] <Fingolfin> :-)
[14:12:55] * Colourless looks around...
[15:47:01] --- Colourless is now known as Cless|Away
