@belmarca I am relying on reactjs
I'm trying to make an interface to the Proj library for handling geographic coordinates, but I am having trouble with "const" parameters ... usually things like constant character strings, but sometimes more exotic. Is there a "const" indicator I can use when defining C types?
I plan on a netCDF interface too, but proj seemed easier to start with ;-)
:)
more on this will be presented at the "Gambit at 30" meeting... for details see https://mailman.iro.umontreal.ca/pipermail/gambit-list/2019-July/009117.html
you can contact me if you are looking for presenters
I started working on the JavaScript backend, and keep updating the issue 404
The roadmap could be announced on the mailling list tho
That one mentions the missing syntax-rules, however I wouldn't necessarily go looking for that information inside the r7rs issue
there is one project but it is dated 2017
maybe we should go through the whole R7RS and create table and flag features that are done and those that are missing
even if the backend requires multi threads and gambit smp support is new
what I holding me back, was mostly the lack of R7RS library system
Does using wiredtiger mean you need smp?
I need that one "thread" doesn't block other threads, as concurrency issues are dealt with by wiredtiger.
@amirouche where is the blocking happening? if it is on a file descriptor then Gambit's green threads will be sufficient because the thread scheduler multiplexes the CPU so that Scheme threads waiting on a fd are put to sleep without blocking other threads. Scheme-level mutexes and condition variables also don't block other threads than the one blocking.
the main resource used is cpu
