(7pm at the Dallas Makerspace) We will be hosting an interactive discussion about test-driven development, and encourage any and all persons in attendance (both online and in person) to share both thoughts and code. We'll be using Google hangouts for screen sharing. We will take tests from Perl modules on the CPAN and use them as examples. All of this will be in preparation for our topic next month, which will be a presentation on continuous testing and continuous integration with Jenkins (and other technologies). Thanks, and hope to see you there! -- Tommy Butler, John Fields -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The key thing to keep in mind is that subroutine overhead in Perl is high. And this essentially adds lots of additional subroutines calls and logic around your methods that will not do well performance wise. Something you might want to ponder instead of full-on Aspect, is to just use Moose for your advising needs. Or go simpler and use Class::Method::Modifiers. But at the end of the day, what kind of application are you writing? I mean, if you are producing something to run on a single computer, just use the module and hope your successors can read your code :) If you are doing anything that could be remotely called a distributed system, I would sincerely avoid this module in production. Build a prototype to help you identify what you /want/ to do and capture those learnings and build the system without the magic. -- Nicholas Perez XMPP/Email: nick at nickandperla.net https://metacpan.org/author/NPEREZ http://github.com/nperez From ace at tommybutler.me Fri Jul 17 18:08:27 2015 From: ace at tommybutler.me (Tommy Butler) Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2015 20:08:27 -0500 Subject: [DFW.pm] Larry Wall interview, July 14th, 2015 Message-ID: http://www.linuxvoice.com/interview-larry-wall/ -- Tommy Butler -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
