<Chea_544> anyone up
<Chea_544> trying to build an app here but i need some help here
<Smerdyakov> Never ask to ask. Just ask.
<Chea_544> its good to know someones there so atleast you can hope for an anwser :P
<Smerdyakov> No, you just piss people off and make it less likely that they will answer.
<Chea_544> Smerdyakov: ok i am trying to build an Instant Messaging client ....i have figured out how to do sockets and XML parsing but i still havent figured out how to do file system stuff
<Chea_544> i need to open a XML file the xml file will have User configuration in it
<Smerdyakov> Read the manual page on Pervasives, the initially opened module.
<Chea_544> which manual ?
<Smerdyakov> The OCaml manual
<Chea_544> ok ok ......also have you ever use LablGTK ?
<Chea_544> Smerdyakov ^^
<Smerdyakov> No
<Chea_544> i seeeeee
<Chea_544> Smerdyakov: what have you done in ocaml yourself ?
<Smerdyakov> I use it for two reasons: 1) when a project I join is already using it; 2) for easy integration with Coq.
<Smerdyakov> In the first category, I've worked on a model-checker and proof-carrying code tools.
<Smerdyakov> In the second, certified implementations of program analyses.
<Chea_544> i seeeeee
<Chea_544> do you think its faster to program in then C or D ??
<Chea_544> Smerdyakov
<Smerdyakov> Everyone knows that. :)
<Chea_544> i take it as Yes ??
<Chea_544> :P
<Smerdyakov> Yes.
<dylan> ocaml is more expressive than either of those language
<dylan> *s
<Chea_544> kk good i am trying to have this client done in 2 days
<Chea_544> it will be a very simply message to message client with a buddy list
<Chea_544> nothing more
<Chea_544> and lablgtk for gui
<Smerdyakov> And you've never used ML before...?
<Chea_544> nope first project
<Chea_544> looks pretty simple though
<Chea_544> i have used C and D and a slew of scripting langs for my stuff
<Smerdyakov> I think your deadline is unrealistic.
<Chea_544> what you mean
<Chea_544> i odnt need the hwole thing doen in 2 days i jus want ot get the socket stuff all done and setup so then i cna work on buddy list and user UI and stuff
<Smerdyakov> You likely won't be able to learn OCaml sufficiently well that fast.
<Chea_544> i have been toying with ocaml for a few months
<Smerdyakov> Oh, OK.
<Smerdyakov> Ever used a functional language before?
<Chea_544> nothing serious i knew the syntax quite well
<Chea_544> i have used C D php lua Python Ruby Euphoria
<Chea_544> and i am quite good in all
<Smerdyakov> Then you haven't used a functional language before. ;)
<Chea_544> wtf ........ whats a functional langauge then ?
Chea_5345 has joined #ocaml
<Chea_5345> Smerdyakov: what exactly do you mean by functional programming ??
<Smerdyakov> You missed the link.
finelemo1 has joined #ocaml
<Chea_5345> what are other functional programming langs ??
<Smerdyakov> (Gosh, Wikipedia knows everything, eh? ;)
<Chea_5345> lol i looked ofr it but i couldnt fund it
<Chea_5345> find
<Chea_5345> but i jus loked for links on thatt page
<Smerdyakov> That's how _I_ found it..
<Smerdyakov> Follow the category link for Functional programming at the bottom, then the subcategory link from there.
<Chea_5345> only one i have used out of all of those is LISP
<Smerdyakov> And it is common to use Common Lisp in a very unfunctional way, so that may not count, either. ;)
<Chea_5345> lol
