I don't do JavaScript and don't want to. I do do C++ (windows) and like it.

Always nice to see a fellow troop! Hope the war hasn't been too rough on you.

You're officially insane.

We're fighting for a cause we believe in.

Gąska

@LB_ wouldn't you rather fight for something worth fighting for?

@Gąska I'd love to learn Rust and use it, if you know a way that I can use it in an IDE with a powerful debugger that lets me debug code on a remote machine with edit and continue I'd probably try and switch very soon. However some current projects I work with require use of Microsoft's C++/CX and I am not so sure Rust would be compatible with that in any realistic sense without me mixing multiple languages.

That would be CLion. It works quite well with Rust, and is itself a very good general-purpose IDE with decent debugger. It doesn't come free, however. If you want free, there's IntelliJ, which is almost the same except it doesn't have debugger. But I've heard people were using VSCode debugger with success.

Why do you want to learn a new programming language by remote debugging? Wouldn't you rather start with something easier first?

I don't know anything about CX, but I'd also guess it probably doesn't. No more than plain C, that's for sure.

Well of course I will start simple, but these features are things I use every day as part of my work. Rust would probably be good for hobby projects at least, I suppose.

Interop with c++/cx · Issue #40 · contextfree/winrt-rust

I was wondering if there's some good way of calling into rust code I've written with winrt-rust from, eg, a XAML control I wrote in C++? Trivial interop I've already managed, but I'...

Sometimes the relevant place for running code is simply not the local machine.

Gąska

@dkf yes, and such a place is not a good starting point for learning a new language.

But if there are requirements to use it that are unfulfilled, learning it is a waste of time. At least for that particular project.

Gąska

@Carnage if all you care about is that particular project, then yes, you're kinda sorta right. But caring about only a single particular project isn't a good long-term strategy, career-wise.

I've got a fresh WTF. Try running this code:

<?php
$filename = "dupa.txt";
file_put_contents($filename, "dupa");
echo filesize($filename)."\n";
file_put_contents($filename, "dupa", FILE_APPEND);
echo filesize($filename)."\n";

Upvoted for dupa.
