| greyback_ | alan_g: did you have any fixes for the system-compositor WM to deal with https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-pocket-desktop/+bug/1511538 | 12:37 |
|---|---|---|
| ubot5 | Launchpad bug 1511538 in qtmir (Ubuntu) "1/2 screen on external monitor" [High,Confirmed] | 12:37 |
| greyback_ | if so, would be nice to include with mir 0.17.1 release | 12:37 |
| alan_g | greyback_: not yet. But looks similar to other nested display config problems I'm chasing down | 12:39 |
| greyback_ | alan_g: ok | 12:40 |
| alan_g | greyback_: have you seen anything similar on phone? https://bugs.launchpad.net/mir/+bug/1511723 | 12:58 |
| ubot5 | Launchpad bug 1511723 in Mir "unplugging external monitor causes nested server to throttle client" [Undecided,New] | 12:58 |
| greyback_ | alan_g: I haven't actually. | 12:58 |
| greyback_ | alan_g: that's desktop only? | 12:59 |
| alan_g | greyback_: that's what I've been testing - as most of the display management problems are platform independent | 13:00 |

| alf_ | anpok: is a device configured either as touchpad or pointer? | 14:02 |
| === alan_g|lunch is now known as alan_g | ||
| alf_ | anpok: or => xor | 14:03 |
| anpok | alf_: no.. touchpads are both touchpads and pointers | 14:07 |
| anpok | mice are just pointers.. | 14:07 |
| alf_ | anpok: I don't know... I still think that apply_touchpad_configuration() is a different operation to apply_pointer_configuration(), not just variations of the same operation. | 14:13 |
| alf_ | anpok: Anyway, I won't block on that. | 14:15 |
| alan_g | alf_: I agree - they have different effects | 14:20 |
| anpok | hmm | 14:21 |
| anpok | isnt just a matter of abstraction when describing the effect | 14:21 |
| anpok | +that | 14:21 |
| anpok | there is no problem in changing the interface.. I just want to understand that point.. or rather.. | 14:22 |
| anpok | when do you think overloading is ok-ish.. and when is it considered harmful .. not appropriate.. | 14:22 |
| alan_g | draw_a_gun() and draw_a_card() vs draw() | 14:23 |
| anpok | ^ a good case of draw(gnu) draw(card)? | 14:24 |
| alf_ | anpok: a bad case | 14:25 |
| anpok | oh really? | 14:25 |
| anpok | draw : gnu -> void draw : card -> void .. | 14:25 |
| anpok | they wont have the same effect but both draw <something> .. somewhere.. | 14:26 |
| anpok | .. compare to operator<<(stream, T) | 14:27 |
| alf_ | anpok: well, it really depends on the context, but drawing a gun is drawing a card is not related in general. For example in a class Cowboy I would expect two different methods. | 14:28 |
| anpok | oh .. gun ... i read gnu | 14:28 |
| anpok | what do you mean be different methods? I would expect neither inside a 'Cowboy' | 14:31 |
| anpok | s/be/by | 14:31 |
| alf_ | anpok: Well, now we are starting to discuss class design completely theoretically... :) | 14:35 |
| anpok | meta design | 14:35 |
| anpok | we need space glasses for that.. | 14:35 |
| anpok | http://blog.spaceglasses.com/ | 14:36 |
| anpok | guess we just have to expense that.. | 14:36 |
| alan_g | draw_a_picture_of_a(gnu) is different again | 14:36 |
| anpok | ok need to go offline again.. | 14:38 |
| alf_ | anpok: I guess for me the ultimate counter example we have is mev::make_event(). At one abstraction level you could say that all these create "events", and that's correct, but I argue that we should have "make_touch_event", "make_pointer_event" etc instead | 14:38 |
| * alan_g wonders about angels and points of pins | 14:38 | |
| alf_ | anpok: going with the first approach (all these create events) has led to a very hard to read API | 14:39 |
| anpok | alf_: there I agree it should not be the same name, | 14:39 |
| anpok | bbl | 14:40 |
| * alan_g is tired of segfaults deep inside /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dri/i965_dri.so | 15:54 | |
