Hello,

	The attached patched is from Daniel Lloren, I'm just 'a messenger' (and ad=
ded
	a comment in the source, preceding the new binding).

The proposed patch is to allow  exception printers user customization.

This has been very important, not to say vital, for those of us who manipul=
ate large
structures, lists, arrays, sfri-4 bytevectors, ..., something we have been =
doing
locally ... but we need something for our users (aiscm, guile-cv ...), so t=
hey don't
have to patch guile locally... (most would be scared to do so and would not=
 do it
anyway...).

Once applied, users can, for example, customize the raised exception system=
 so it
uses truncated-print, either individually (in .guile), or guile admins can =
do
this globally (in share/guile-site/init.scm):

	(use-modules (ice-9 pretty-print))
                   =20
	(when (defined? 'exception-format)
	  (set! exception-format
	        (lambda (port fmt . args)
	          (for-each (lambda (arg)
	                      (truncated-print arg #:port port))
	              args))))

Maybe there is another/better approach, I don't know, but this works pretty=
 well
for me...

Thanks,
David

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Allowing exception printers user customization

* module/ice-9/boot-9.scm (exception-format, dispatch-exception,

Agreed with David that this is an important issue. Without a patch, =
working with a large data structure is guaranteed to kill the REPL =
session sooner or later. There was a thread a while ago here: =
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-user/2017-02/msg00188.html

Right now, the REPL will catch either general exceptions or calls to =
error or scm-error which throw specific exception types. For general =
exceptions the argument list is just printed with ~a, but for libguile =
exceptions, the handler expects a =91format=92 argument which is used to =
format the error message. One can put ~a and ~s in this =91format=92 =
argument, see =
https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/Handling-Errors.html.

The proposal

> 	(use-modules (ice-9 pretty-print))
>=20
> 	(when (defined? 'exception-format)
> 	  (set! exception-format
> 	        (lambda (port fmt . args)
> 	          (for-each (lambda (arg)
> 	                      (truncated-print arg #:port port))
> 	              args))))

throws away this formatting. That's why I proposed instead the other =
solution in the links above, which replaces the ~a and ~s by ~y (this =
calls truncated print), but otherwise respects the original format =
string.

(set! exception-format
         (lambda (port fmt . args)
           (apply format port (rewrite-fmt (rewrite-fmt fmt "~s") "~a") =
args)))

Anyway. These are clunky hacks. According to the manual

> ~A indicates an argument printed using display, while ~S indicates an =
argument printed using write


I think this is an unnecessary complication if there's a hook. One =
option (that works like =91write=92 by default) is enough. If one wants =
to craft a special error message, that should be done without abusing =
the exception arguments.

I think this =91write=92 should be a hook or even a fluid. There is =
already a hook to configure the REPL printer, which is set by =
(repl-default-option-set! 'print ##) or (repl-option-set! repl 'print =
##) (the latter is undocumented). Maybe that hook can be reused for the =
exception printer. Or maybe there can be a new hook that is reused by =
both the repl and the exception printer. It makes sense to me to make =
both of these refer to the same function.

I also agree with David that both the REPL and the exception printers =
should be truncated by default. That requires truncated-print to be =
available in (ice-9 boot).

Anyway, just some thoughts.

See the related bug#29669 about REPL printers.=20

It seems to me that you can achieve similar effect, at least in some
cases, by parameterizing =E2=80=98current-error-port=E2=80=99.  It also mak=
es more sense
to me to parameterize =E2=80=98current-error-port=E2=80=99 rather than set
=E2=80=98exception-format=E2=80=99, because the =E2=80=98exception-format=
=E2=80=99 is very constrained:
it has to implement at least everything =E2=80=98simple-format=E2=80=99 imp=
lements.

WDYT?

Besides, note that there=E2=80=99s also =E2=80=98set-exception-printer!=E2=
=80=99.  It=E2=80=99s a
different kind of customization, but it can serve a similar purpose.

Thanks,
Ludo=E2=80=99.

To be honest, exactly how does not really matter, I leave that to you (main=
tainers):
I have used the code, actually written by Daniel, who also claimed it was n=
ot
complete, iirc, to raise the issue, so we can discuss it between us:

	I think we should be very (very) friendly to new Guile users, and especial=
ly
	those who do not know scheme (yet);

	I think I should be able to use Guile-CV to teach basic image manipulation
	to a class of young teenagers, who would not even know what scheme is, whi=
ch
	means, imo, no guile customization should be required:

	guile
	(use-modules (cv))
	(im-load "my-preferred-penguin.png")

	- at this point, even if the image is very small, guile is 'lost' [*]
	- same if I teach them to compose a few image ops, they commit
	a mistake while typing .. bang, the exception printer is 'lost'

It is perfectly fine, on the opposite side, to ask advanced scheme users (w=
ho would
want to, but I really don't see the point) configure guile s the repl and t=
he
exception printer so it tries to print the full content of huge lsts, vecto=
rs, arrays
...

David

[*]	one could argue i could have chosen another data structure, but well, I
	did not :), and imo, we can't tell users who have to manipulate large
	structures (arrays, vector, think about non s/w engineers scientists,
	biologists ...),	"... don't manipulate large structures in a repl, wrap th=
em
	in a record first ..."

	it happened to me at university, trying to make a demo of Guile-CV to a gr=
oup
	of postdoc candidates: I updated guile the day before and forgot to repatch
	both the repl and the exception printers, opened an image, and ... bang!

	I was in emacs, so ... after a few seconds they all laughed and ... by
	the time I could recover, repatched guile ... they were all ...
	gone! (and convinced they should stick to python and open-cv or java and

Perhaps you could arrange to set the REPL=E2=80=99s =E2=80=98print=E2=80=99=
 option right from
one of the Guile-OpenCV modules?  I mean the configuration you mention
have doesn=E2=80=99t have to be done manually by users.

I'll do that yes, since I failed to convince you it you be a better default=
 for all
of us, not just Guile-CV :)

I hope I can also do that wrt exceptions in an easy way too, I did not look=
 with care
to what you suggested, since I thought what Daniel offered was a better app=
roach and
that it would be included one way or another in 2.2.4 ... let's see what I =
can cook
with set-exception-printer! then :)

Thanks,
David

Note that, for info, I named the project Guile-CV, not to refer to existing=
 libs,
and currently, it does not use Open-CV :) - which doesn't have a maintained=
 C
wrapper :(, but it would be nice to be able to use it 'from Guile-CV', ... =
one day
maybe ...

Hm. Applying the peanut gallery factor to my opinion (roughly 10e-7), I tend to
side with David's position: the default consumer of REPL's print is a human, and
feeding him/her with huge binary things isn't "tasty"...

But... grain of salt, and things. What would be David's position's downsides?

Thanks

If the change I'm proposing is implemented in such a way that it still offe=
r,
through an option mechanism, to display several lines ... (and it has to be
implemented this way, as also spotted by Andy in a subsequent email), then
I fail to see any downsides.

Regards,
David
