chicken-doc

Hi there,

I've uploaded two new eggs, chicken-doc and chicken-doc-admin, into
the Chicken 4 egg repository.

chicken-doc allows you to explore Chicken manual and egg documentation
from the command-line and the REPL.  Documentation is generated from a
checkout of the wiki, and is stored locally.

To try it out, you will need to install the chicken-doc and
chicken-doc-admin eggs.  Then generate a new database by following the
Quick start in http://chicken.wiki.br/eggref/4/chicken-doc-admin.
Finally, read http://chicken.wiki.br/eggref/4/chicken-doc to learn how
to use chicken-doc.

Re: Qt egg

I was under the impression that the QT egg was more a demo, then an
egg ment to be practical, and hence was *finished*.

I myself would like QT bindings. Considering such I decided I'd start
writing some myself; My approach was two fold, first to generate a set
of macros that would generate proper bindings given S-expression that
declare the QT layout. Then, I was building a gcc plugin that will
generate those declarations by compiling the QT code base.

If you'd like to see the code it is here: http://github.com/Arelius/chicken-qt

Currently the generator macros are mostly complete, I need to add
support for receiving messages in scheme code. After that, I still
need to do the declarations, but It's pretty simple to add a few of
your own to get the functionality required.

While the code is in egg form, It isn't actually ment for general
consumption yet, If you are interested in trying it out, I can give
you an overview of how to use it.

Re: Qt egg

Hi therer, Nicholas. I really didn't think QT egg was a demo.  As I'm kind of new to Scheme, could you give me an example with working code using your egg, please?

I would like to see how would it be to use your bindings.

Really thanks!
Arthur

Set data structure


Hello everyone,

Currently, I need to have a data structure that implement set (unordered
list, in other words). As of know, it seems that there is no egg or
anything like that implement this, but I just want to make sure.

Do you know of any egg or unit implementing set?

Thank you very much,
Lam Luu

See http://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-1/srfi-1.html#SetOperationsOnLists  
which is part of Chicken.

Re: Set data structure

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Well, that's is set in list, which is horribly slow (O(n) IS very
slow, for most intends and purposes). I guess my question something
like, is there any implementation of set in chicken that is at least
O(log n), aka using binary search tree of some sort?

Thank you for your link though, Kon,

Lam

For integer sets there's the iset egg, which is highly
optimized.  For other data types you can just use a
hash-table.

I had understood that Chicken's hash tables were not competitive for
speed unless you have at least 100 keys or so.  Is that still true?

I'm not a Qt expert, but my impression is that when the documentation
for the Qt egg says it's supposed to be incomplete, one of the meanings
is that the egg tends to focus on the Qt features NOT provided by
chicken and any other egg.  A bunch of Qt features are provided by
chicken itself or eggs, so, there's no reason to make bindings for those
features.

Best wishes.
Mario
