    including all options for tasks etc

    task* (singular?)

    so what led to the tuple makes no matter

    its the tuple, thats is all there is to process

    its the smae or different

    yea. but unification of hashed inputs was what i was getting at there

    hashed, typed, inputs
  • e

    I'm not sure what unification means, but the input for a verb will be only the tuple

    if the verb factory that created the tuple had flags, those value get represented in a tuple

    etc

    hm

    targets attributes, flags, the actual verb does ot care - its only inputs are the tuple
  • e

    enough-analyst-54434

    10/07/2015, 11:09 PM
    the planner cares

    so you're thinking that the tuple would contain, for example, the entire config file for a thing of type 'file_option'?
  • e

    enough-analyst-54434

    10/07/2015, 11:09 PM
    it assembles the tuple from multiple input sources, flags, targets, etc
  • w

    witty-crayon-22786

    10/07/2015, 11:09 PM
    gotcha.
  • e

    enough-analyst-54434

    10/07/2015, 11:09 PM
    the tuple contains everything needed to verb
  • w

    witty-crayon-22786

    10/07/2015, 11:10 PM
    i mean, nonetheless: still useful to have a unified type system there
  • e

    enough-analyst-54434

    10/07/2015, 11:10 PM
    the only thing I'm not sure of yet is file contents
  • w

    witty-crayon-22786

    10/07/2015, 11:10 PM
    because in order to construct the tuple, i need to know this is a file
  • e

    enough-analyst-54434

    10/07/2015, 11:10 PM
    thats a perf sticky wicket
  • e

    enough-analyst-54434

    10/07/2015, 11:10 PM
    so maybe not those, but their hashes as sanity
  • w

    @enough-analyst-54434: i mean, they're sources.
  • e

    enough-analyst-54434

    10/07/2015, 11:10 PM
    The planner knows a thing is a file, target attribute, option
  • w

    10/07/2015, 11:10 PM
    whatever you do with sources, ya know?
  • e

    enough-analyst-54434

    10/07/2015, 11:10 PM
    the executor does not
  • e

    IE: today we have Task, tomorrow we have planner which produces a task + tuples
  • e

    enough-analyst-54434

    10/07/2015, 11:11 PM
    the task knows the semantics of each tuple slot, not where they came from
  • e

    enough-analyst-54434

    10/07/2015, 11:11 PM
    the planner knows where the slots come from since it actually populates them

    i think what you're saying about sources means this isn't really fully nailed down.
