<dsmith-work>sneek: later tell wingo ERROR: threads.test: parallel: 1 - arguments: ((wrong-type-arg "apply" "Apply to non-list: ~S" (#<procedure values _>) (#<procedure values _>)))
<sneek>Okay.
<wingo>hmm
<sneek>Welcome back wingo, you have 1 message.
<sneek>wingo, dsmith-work says: ERROR: threads.test: parallel: 1 - arguments: ((wrong-type-arg "apply" "Apply to non-list: ~S" (#<procedure values _>) (#<procedure values _>)))
<dsmith-work>wingo: for parallel 1, 1 2, 1 2 3, and par-map: simple
<wingo>exciting
<wingo>will get to it later this week
<infinite_barbecu>wingo, say old chap, would you know a way for two different versions of the same module to co-exist in the smae load path?
<infinite_barbecu>Like (john (1)) and (john (2)) where 2 is not backwards compatible with 1
<wingo>um, i don't know why you speak to me with that kind of familiarity
<wingo>that's pretty weird.
<wingo>regarding your question it's not really possible
<wingo>the one that is first in the load path will win
<wingo>but there cannot be two that you can choose from -- it doesn't work to map between versions and the file system for various reasons
<infinite_barbecu>wingo, hmm, so you actually can't have two versions of the same library where they are not backwards compatitible co-exist?
<infinite_barbecu>Oh well, shame.
<infinite_barbecu>I will just rename it I guess.
<wingo>indeed.
<infinite_barbecu>wingo, and we are more familiar by the way, I just constantly change my name.
<infinite_barbecu>You have assisted me on many occassions.
<infinite_barbecu>But ehh, what would be the cannonical way to deal with the problem that one program relies on the old version and another on the new version
<infinite_barbecu>Just renaming?
<wingo>version compatibility is a deep problem, yes -- different names is the most complete solution
<infinite_barbecu>wingo, it's not in general possible to let th efilename be different from the library name you import by right?

<ijp>wingo: I still haven't looked at (language cps intset), but I did finally write the Hamts code and am documenting it ATM
<wingo>awesome!
<ijp>I might add the dvanhorn's ralists (srfi 10-something) code to the bunch when I do the 0.3 release of pfds
<ijp>not rewriting that one though
