idris-jvm VS rust

Hello, I am the author of Idris JVM. Thank you for your feedback. I will update the README to include a link for JVM interop. For now, this file https://github.com/mmhelloworld/idris-jvm/blob/main/libs/bas... , demonstrates how the interop looks like currently. The %foreign directive takes an FFI descriptor to talk to the respective backends. Here you can see few scheme and JVM descriptors starting with "scheme:" and "jvm:" respectively. The JVM descriptors there also show constructor calls ``, instance methods `.lock` and static methods `getThreadData`.

Unfortunately, since Eta is no longer maintained and Frege never was quite Haskell, there's no Haskell implementation on the JVM, so you either have to make due with "impure" Scala/Kotlin or make the jump to the Idris2 JVM backend (https://github.com/mmhelloworld/idris-jvm).

Hello everyone, I am happy to announce that Idris 2 JVM backend has finally caught up to Idris 2 latest version and now supports Idris 2 0.5.1. The release is here https://github.com/mmhelloworld/idris-jvm/releases/tag/v0.5.1. Any feedback is welcome.

Great work! I am currently working on something similar but a compiler backend for Idris language to compile to JVM bytecode https://github.com/mmhelloworld/idris-jvm and I've always wanted to create one with Tamil so this is awesome! One suggestion as I see you want to compile this instead of interpreted version is to have an intermediate language so that it is backend agnostic and we can easily plug different backends to compile to possibly JVM, JavaScript and even native then we can use a Tamil programming language everywhere :). As for intermediate language, we can even compile to existing IRs like Idris or Scala IR then we can readily use existing compiler backends.

Release is here: https://github.com/mmhelloworld/idris-jvm/releases/tag/latest. Now the JVM backend is one step away to catching up to latest Idris 2 version 0.4.0. To try it out, if Java 8 or above is already installed on the system, we can just download the archive and be able to run the compiler right away without any additional installation. More details on the release page.

If you haven't dipped your touch-typing fingers into Rust yet, you really owe it to yourself. Rust is a modern programming language with features that make it suitable not only for systems programming -- its original purpose, but just about any other environment, too; there are frameworks that let your build web services, web applications including user interfaces, software for embedded devices, machine learning solutions, and of course, command-line tools. Since a custom GitHub Action is essentially a command-line tool that interacts with the system through files and environment variables, Rust is perfectly suited for that as well.

Here's an example of someone citing a disagreement between CRT and shell32:

This in addition to the Rust CVE mentioned elsewhere in the thread which was rooted in this issue:

Here are some quick programs to test contrasting approaches. I don't have examples of inputs where they parse differently on hand right now, but I know they exist. This was also a problem that was frequently discussed internally when I worked at MSFT.

> instead of choosing a certain numbered version of the random library (if I remember correctly) I let cargo download the latest version which had a completely different API.

Yeah, they didn't follow the instructions and got burned. I still think that multiple things went wrong simultaneously for that experience. I wonder if more prevalent uses of `#[doc(alias = "name")]` being leveraged by https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120730 (which now that I check only accounts for methods and not functions, I should get on that!) so that when changing APIs around people at least get a slightly better experience.

Almost fixed the compiler: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/123325

Rust: A secure, efficient, and modern programming language (omitting ten thousand words). You can simply follow the installation instructions provided on the official website.

Recently did something similar in Rust but for generating SVGs. We've adopted it for snapshot testing of cargo and rustc's output. Don't have a good PR handy for showing Github's rendering of changes in the SVG (text, side-by-side, swiping) but https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/121877/files has newly added SVGs.

To see what is supported, see the screenshot in the docs: https://docs.rs/anstyle-svg/latest/anstyle_svg/

We strongly believe in Rust as a powerful language for building production-grade software, especially for systems like ours that run alongside Kubernetes.

The above Assert<{N % 2 == 1}> requires #![feature(generic_const_exprs)] and the nightly toolchain. See https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/76560 for more info.
