[yast-devel] Again: 98% of "undefined method" errors have nothing to do with static typing
by Ancor Gonzalez Sosa 18 Dec '17

18 Dec '17

This is probably the less useful mail ever, since it just goes over a topic that has been explained over and over and still pops us in almost every single meeting. Let me say it again: 98% of the "undefined method `xxx' for nil:NilClass" errors are NOT related AT ALL to Ruby being dynamically typed and would NOT be prevented by the usage of a statically typed language. And the other side of the same recurring coin - we don't write unit tests as a replacement for the compiler checks. That's not the point, the goal or the intention of the unit tests. This time I will try to explain it with an example (something that already has been done, but I just felt impelled to do it one more time). Let's say you have this Ruby method that returns an object of type Device or nil if the device was not found find_device_by_name(name) And then you write this code dev = find_device_by_name("/dev/sda") puts dev.size If there is no /dev/sda that will result in one of those "undefined method `size` for nil:NilClass" that some people hate so much. Did it happen because Ruby is dynamically typed? NOT AT ALL. It happened because you didn't check for the situation in which the device is not there with some code like this. dev = find_device_by_name("/dev/sda") if dev puts dev.size else puts "No such device" end Let's do the same in an hypothetical typed Ruby in which there is nothing like nil. Now your find_device_by_name method will raise a NotFound exception instead of returning nil if the device is not there (the approach we use in statically typed languages). The first example will still fail, now with an uncaught NotFound exception. The static type checking performed by the compiler didn't save us from THE DEVELOPER ERROR and the result is pretty much the same - an exception thrown in the user's face. In this case, the correct solution is pretty similar to the real (dynamic) Ruby one begin dev = find_device_by_name("/dev/sda") puts dev.size rescue NotFound puts "No such device" end Both errors are the same error, a programmer error. Both errors happen during runtime, just the raised exception is different. In Ruby, the error is revealed in a slightly different way that it would be revealed in a static language. But that's the whole difference. Static type checking would not save you in 98% of the cases. What can save us in both cases? Comprehensive unit tests. Because they have a completely different goal from the checks performed by the compiler and they should spot a different kind of errors. Of course, that implies that whoever is writing the tests thinks in all possible situations (like the device not being there) and covers those situations with tests. That's why unit tests are a must in both dynamically and statically typed languages. If you think in your unit tests as a replacement of the static type checking... you will very likely not write the right unit tests. And please, stop assuming that every single "undefined method" error is caused by a missing type check.

[yast-devel] Teletype - a real time collaboration plugin
by Ladislav Slezak 14 Dec '17

14 Dec '17

Hi all, JFYI, I came across Teletype [1], a plugin for the Atom editor which allows "sharing" a document and working in a group together. With some additional communication channel (Jangouts, Hangouts, Skype, whateverelse....) this looks like a great tool for pair programming, code discussions or learning. I haven't tried that by myself yet, but the idea looks interesting. See more details at the home page. [1] https://teletype.atom.io/ -- Ladislav Slezák YaST Developer SUSE LINUX, s.r.o.
