| Woosta | 1997 mod time scares me first .. |
| cfedde | scrottie: what are you running this on? some 100Mhz 486? |
| scrottie | cfedde: I wish... Sparc 10. 36mhz. |
| sovereign | DrForr: Well the name doesn't necessarily have to be all correct for the app I'm buliding |
| Patterner | scrottie: how old? |
| scrottie | But it should be as fast as a 100mhz 486, actually... |
| sovereign | DrForr: It's for internal data gathering |
| scrottie | Patterner: early/mid 1990s |
| cfedde | it's realy sad how fast computer hardware ages. |
| Patterner | 1982 Apple ][ 1MHz :) |
| scrottie | It's really how sad how fast computer hardware breaks. |
| Woosta | Ahh .. Chris62vw .. it does one line at a time |
| Chris62vw | it seems that P4's have held their own for a while, relative to P1's Woosta, I dont know what you mean man |
| cfedde | p1's were pretty crummy cpu. 586 90s? p2 pros were a big improvement. |
| Chris62vw | oh yeah |
| Woosta | Chris62vw: a CSV is a file of multiple lines .. why treat each line as it's own object? |
| Chris62vw | for sure |
| DrForr | Replace line 139 with something like C<if ($column =~/\p{Control}/) {>... |
| Chris62vw | Woosta, well, why not? they usually are, aren't they? |
| scrottie | The 180mhz PowerPC 604ev won't reboot cleanly and I'm tired of it crashing so I thought I'd build a new slowass.net... the Sparc 10 is *fine* except for Perl... just cannot run Perl... Used to write Perl on a 486SX25 and I swear it was faster than this... |
| Woosta | Chris62vw: Sure, but you have to run ->parse and then ->fields on each object to get the data I just want a simple way to convert from AoA to CSV and back |
| DrForr | sovereign: Replace line 139 of Text/CSV.pm with something like C<if ($column =~/\p{Control}/) {>... |
| cfedde | Woosta: unforrtunately everyone that approached that problem whas having a love afair with OO when they built the api |
| Chris62vw | Woosta, you ever mess with Tie::handle::CSV? it looks kinda cool... |
| Woosta | cfedde: that's what I mean .. OO is good .. but not for EVERY bloody thing |
| cfedde | DrForr: that code has not been updated since 1997. |
| Woosta | Chris62vw: nah, haven't looked at that .. |
| cfedde | Woosta: I'm not sure that the syntax is realy OO. More OOesque. |
| Aankhen`` | (Regexp::Common)++ # I just realized how awesome it is. |
| Woosta | Ahhhh Chris62vw: that actually looks USEFUL |
| cfedde | it seems not to take any advantage of any oo principles. |
| DrForr | It also doesn't work correctly, even with that fix. It's not dealing properly with the case where $column has a ',' in it already. |
| Patterner | hmm... Devel::Command hates me |
| cfedde | DrForr: you're working too hard. Stop! unless you're having fun fixing bronze age technology. |
| DrForr | But of course you're better off just doing something like C<join ",", map { qq{"$_"} },@rows;>. |
