AAqua To answer your question when I tried the little amount of safe overloads I did i...

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:17 AM

yeah fair

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:17 AM

one thing I hope 3.0 can do is, i hate to say it, but be more pythonic with its parameter types

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:17 AM

Yeah fair enough

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:18 AM

I think having better safe overloads is good

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:18 AM

(I assume that's what you mean)

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:18 AM

i.e.

void SomeThing(int* a)
{
}

void SomeThing(PointerLike<int> a)
{
}

void SomeThing(int* a)
{
}

void SomeThing(PointerLike<int> a)
{
}

PointerLike

PointerLike

being a type that can be implicitly converted to from a pointer, array, ref(???), span, etc

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:18 AM

no idea that'd work though

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:18 AM

Yeah

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:18 AM

If you can pull it off that would be great

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:18 AM

but yeah the worst part about today's overloader is while it gives you options, there are so many that you have literally no idea what that they are

SSpider-Kyle they are locations of other variables

Lyris the Kitori•8/12/22, 12:18 AM

its more a location in memory of 'something' not nessesary a variable

PPerksey but yeah the worst part about today's overloader is while it gives you options, ...

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

Lmao

Lyris the Kitori•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

it can be an IO address, an array

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

600 overloads

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

nono

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

6000

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

actually 12000

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

LOL

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

for a SINGLE FUNCTION

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

ah yes

Redhacker2•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

hmm

LLyris the Kitori it can be an IO address, an array

Spider-KyleOP•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

darn,sololearn lied to me then

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

This function has as many overloads as the current energy prices in England

Redhacker2•8/12/22, 12:19 AM

so did Assimp get topped?

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:20 AM

yep

RRedhacker2 so did Assimp get topped?

Spider-KyleOP•8/12/22, 12:20 AM

wdym?

Redhacker2•8/12/22, 12:20 AM

woah, by what?

RRedhacker2 woah, by what?

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:20 AM

there was a function in D2D1 with 16 pointer parameters

Redhacker2•8/12/22, 12:20 AM

oh dear god

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:20 AM

generated 2(2^16) overloads

Redhacker2•8/12/22, 12:20 AM

oh god

Spider-KyleOP•8/12/22, 12:21 AM

speaking of pointers and unsafe code,do you plan on adding a way to use safe code while creating buffer objects?

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:21 AM

that is actually hilarious

Redhacker2•8/12/22, 12:21 AM

that makes ASSIMP look sane

SSpider-Kyle speaking of pointers and unsafe code,do you plan on adding a way to use safe cod...

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:21 AM

there's already a way

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:21 AM

but again the visibility is terrible

PPerksey there's already a way

Redhacker2•8/12/22, 12:21 AM

use safe overloads

PPerksey there's already a way

Spider-KyleOP•8/12/22, 12:21 AM

then why is it not in the docs?

Spider-KyleOP•8/12/22, 12:21 AM

or examples to be more precise

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:21 AM

because it's not the best use of silk maintainer time right now

Perksey•8/12/22, 12:22 AM

maintainer time is best spent on actually developing the library right now

Lyris the Kitori•8/12/22, 12:22 AM

Redhacker2•8/12/22, 12:22 AM

IMHO there should be 2 overloads for Silk.Net 3.0 per existing overload

Redhacker2•8/12/22, 12:22 AM

a safe and unsafe version

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:22 AM

I could work on the docs

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:22 AM

I keep meaning to sorry

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:22 AM

Just lazy

Spider-KyleOP•8/12/22, 12:22 AM

you know,i would actually love to doc silk.net if i actually knew what 99% of the functions actually did

Redhacker2•8/12/22, 12:23 AM

use intellisense :P, oh wait, intellisense can actually crash your IDE when talking 12000 overloads

RRedhacker2 IMHO there should be 2 overloads for Silk.Net 3.0 per existing overload

Aqua•8/12/22, 12:23 AM

So have 24000 overloads for that one function now?

they are locations of other variables
