11:03:48 <chris> how do windows builds get generated - are they built from https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Building_on_Windows or cross-compiled?
11:04:14 * chris aims to squash some windows bugs

12:29:55 <chris> jralls for the Turkish Lira issue, you can still blame guile string handling on Windows. prelim tests show gnc:html-string-sanitize which uses string-ports will munge the TYR symbol.
12:31:17 <chris> remove string-sanitize, the TYR unicode symbol displays, however the xaccPrintAmount + print-info mechanism still munge the unicode symbol
12:31:48 <chris> ^ all above on Windows
12:31:52 *** ChanServ sets mode: +v gour
12:32:18 <chris> that's all for tonight
12:32:23 <gour> hello, my two messges sent 2mins ago are not visible?
12:32:30 * gour was not having voice..
12:34:34 *** tienne has quit IRC
12:47:36 <gour> in case it didn't go through earlier...
12:48:00 <gour> i've migrated from manjaro where there was 3.5 to devuan ceres (aka unstable or sid) and considering ascii (stable), but its version is too low (2.6.15). do you recommend installing "testing" (3.4) into "stable" or to cope with "sid" until Buster gets released?

13:54:20 <jralls> gour: Totally up to you. Note the third option would be to build 3.5 yourself from source. You can look at https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash/blob/maint/util/ci/ubuntu-14.04-docker to see what apt-get commands you'll need to set up the build environment.
13:56:39 *** chf has quit IRC
13:56:56 <jralls> chris: Is the report code passing strings to xaccPrintAmount through a port or is the C code doing something to break the unicode?
13:58:07 *** chf has joined #gnucash
13:58:46 <jralls> chris: As for building, it's done on a windows machine using the procedure in the Building on Windows wiki page.

18:13:08 <mikee> jralls: Thanks for doing the merge. I get stressed about such things.
18:13:32 <jralls> mikee: I figured you'd gone to bed! ;-)
18:14:06 <jralls> There's no need to get stressed, though. It's not that hard.
18:14:21 <mikee> Nope, got distracted onto the Making Tax Difficult thing.
18:14:43 <mikee> With my own code I'm OK.
18:18:42 <jralls> What direction are you heading on MTD? A formatted export of some sort that can feed one of the websites that interact with HMRC?
18:21:07 *** gour_ has joined #gnucash
18:21:13 <mikee> Python to query GnuCash then the user can review the data before submitting to HMRC
18:21:44 <mikee> git@github.com:EvansMike/hmrc_self_submit.git
18:22:40 <mikee> I've got the GnuCash part working, and I've done some test submits.
18:23:10 <mikee> Need to tie it together. Then add a comprehensive disclaimer :)
18:23:20 *** gour has quit IRC
18:34:06 <jralls> Looks very fancy, with a GUI and everything. But what languages are you expecting it to be translated into?
18:39:58 <mikee> Welsh?

19:23:29 <chris> jralls: xaccPrintAmount's C code is breaking unicode
19:24:13 <jralls> chris: OK. Can you tell where? If not I can make test program to find it.
19:24:52 <chris> I have no idea :)
19:26:23 <chris> either xaccPrintAmount which takes a number and print-info, or gnc_commodity_print_info which takes commodity & bool
19:28:57 <jralls> Ah, more likely gnc_commodity_print_info. IIRC that's where the symbol gets printed. I'll look. Thanks.
19:33:19 <chris> print_info outputs a mnemonic numbers and bools, not the symbol
19:35:08 *** trying2Simplify has quit IRC
19:37:40 <chris> is it because currency_symbol is a char instead of gchar? <naive>
19:37:52 *** Aussie_matt has joined #gnucash
19:38:16 <chris> (in xaccSPrintAmount)
19:40:12 <jralls> chris: No, gchar and char are the same. It's because it's a single char instead of a string because UTF-8 uses more than one byte except for ASCII. Where did your find that?
19:40:27 <chris> in xaccSPrintAmount
19:40:54 <chris> line 1851
19:41:11 <chris> and line 1888
19:46:44 <jralls> Ah, but currency_symbol is a char*, see line 1781. The * means it's a pointer to char, which in C almost always means a null-terminated string.
19:49:50 <chris> I think I'll try create a Windows builder this week
19:50:46 <chris> after that, off to work now
19:51:36 <jralls> It gets currency_symbol from libgnucash/engine/gnc-commodity.c, gnc_commodity_get_nice_symbol line 1205, so it should be getting the right thing.
19:55:03 *** trying2Simplify has joined #gnucash
19:57:21 <jralls> The problem is more likely in _wrap_xaccPrintAmount in swig-app-utils-guile.c. It converts the string with scm_from_utf8_string.
19:57:26 <jralls> GTG.
