thanks for your help, apparently you saying java got me to think of something I needed @Malek

pog!

Malek•4/7/22, 2:52 AM

also i believ the most recent revisions of C++ include mutex

NovaOP•4/7/22, 2:53 AM

yea mutex exists

NovaOP•4/7/22, 2:53 AM

but not mutex::wait

Malek•4/7/22, 2:53 AM

oh, oh no

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 2:54 AM

what's a mutex again

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 2:54 AM

lmao

Malek•4/7/22, 2:54 AM

locks threads

NovaOP•4/7/22, 2:55 AM

yea it waits until another thread has done something

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 2:55 AM

oh okay lol

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 2:55 AM

seems like a weirdly complicated word for that

NovaOP•4/7/22, 2:55 AM

really useful when you wanna make sure only 1 thread can mess with a variable at a time or shenanigans like making async methods sync

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 2:55 AM

the only low level language i've really worked with often is rust so

Malek•4/7/22, 2:56 AM

SSaphira Kai the only low level language i've really worked with often is rust so

NovaOP•4/7/22, 2:58 AM

tbh i should really have made the stardust openxr stuff in rust but... idk how to use rust despite trying soooo

NovaOP•4/7/22, 2:58 AM

yea

Malek•4/7/22, 2:58 AM

you made it in c++?

NovaOP•4/7/22, 2:58 AM

yea, all the stardust stuff is c++

NovaOP•4/7/22, 2:59 AM

you can make bindings for stardust clients in basically any language though

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 2:59 AM

rust is...good

Malek•4/7/22, 2:59 AM

i mean, that increases the likelyhood people will contribute and fix bugs, rust still isn't anywhere as popular

Malek•4/7/22, 2:59 AM

in terms of usage

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 2:59 AM

but...uuggghhhh lmao

NovaOP•4/7/22, 2:59 AM

well... any language that supports unix domain sockets and flatbuffers/flexbuffers will work for stardust bindings

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 2:59 AM

if i ever actually get to a point of understanding the protocol well enough i might give it a shot in go tbh

NovaOP•4/7/22, 3:00 AM

haha sure

NovaOP•4/7/22, 3:00 AM

idk how 3D math will work there but... go for it

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 3:00 AM

lol

Malek•4/7/22, 3:01 AM

OwO go would be interesting

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 3:01 AM

controversial opinion but go is kinda my go-to low-ish level language rn

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 3:01 AM

it's simple and i like simple

NovaOP•4/7/22, 3:01 AM

i treat go as basically like Python is to CV/ML, but for network stuff

NovaOP•4/7/22, 3:01 AM

it's great network glue

NovaOP•4/7/22, 3:01 AM

but it's not really for heavy processing or heavy system integration

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 3:04 AM

fair enough yeah

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 3:05 AM

i believe it can import c code

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 3:05 AM

if i remember correctly

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 3:05 AM

which might help for heavy processing performance

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 3:05 AM

write heavy functions in c and run them in a go main program

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 3:05 AM

if that's possible anyway

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 3:08 AM

might be hacky and stupid but it beats writing a whole big program in c

Saphira Kai•4/7/22, 3:08 AM

it's so unreadable lmao

NovaOP•4/7/22, 3:23 AM

std::vector<uint8_t> Messenger::executeRemoteMethodSync(const std::string object, const std::string method, ArgsConstructor argsConstructor) {
    std::promise<std::vector<uint8_t>> promise;
    std::future<std::vector<uint8_t>> future = promise.get_future();
    executeRemoteMethod(object, method, argsConstructor, [&promise](const std::vector<uint8_t> data) {
        promise.set_value(data);
    });
    return future.get();
}

std::vector<uint8_t> Messenger::executeRemoteMethodSync(const std::string object, const std::string method, ArgsConstructor argsConstructor) {
    std::promise<std::vector<uint8_t>> promise;
    std::future<std::vector<uint8_t>> future = promise.get_future();
    executeRemoteMethod(object, method, argsConstructor, [&promise](const std::vector<uint8_t> data) {
        promise.set_value(data);
    });
    return future.get();
}

NovaOP•4/7/22, 3:23 AM

this isn't bad

NovaOP•4/7/22, 3:23 AM

this is very compact

Malek•4/7/22, 3:28 AM

pog!

NovaOP•4/7/22, 3:28 AM

now to test it

NovaOP•4/7/22, 3:28 AM

this is terrifying

Malek•4/7/22, 3:29 AM

why?

NovaOP•4/7/22, 3:29 AM

if it breaks idk how to fix it lol

std::vector<uint8_t> Messenger::executeRemoteMethodSync(const std::string object, const std::string method, ArgsConstructor argsConstructor) { std::promise<std::vector<uint8_t>> promise; std::future<std::vector<uint8_t>> future = promise.get_future(); executeRemoteMethod(object, method, argsConstructor, [&promise](const std::vector<uint8_t> data) { promise.set_value(data); }); return future.get(); }
