4.12 RingLibuv Extension

Ring 1.7 comes with the RingLibuv extension


Libuv is a multi-platform support library with a focus on asynchronous I/O.
Example (Events Loop):
load "libuv.ring"

counter = 0
idler = NULL

func main
idler = new_uv_idle_t()
uv_idle_init(uv_default_loop(), idler)
uv_idle_start(idler, "wait()")
? "Idling..."
uv_run(uv_default_loop(), UV_RUN_DEFAULT);
uv_loop_close(uv_default_loop());
destroy_uv_idle_t(idler)

func wait
counter++
if counter >= 100000
uv_idle_stop(idler)
ok

Output:
Idling...

Example (Server):
load "libuv.ring"
load "objectslib.ring"

? "Testing RingLibuv - Server Side - Using Classes"

open_object(:MyServer)

class MyServer from ObjectControllerParent

DEFAULT_PORT = 13370
DEFAULT_BACKLOG = 1024

addr = new_sockaddr_in()
server = NULL
client = NULL
myloop = NULL

func start
myloop = uv_default_loop()

4.12. RingLibuv Extension 43


Ring Documentation, Release 1.7

server = new_uv_tcp_t()
uv_tcp_init(myloop, server)
uv_ip4_addr("127.0.0.1", DEFAULT_PORT, addr)
uv_tcp_bind(server, addr, 0)
r = uv_listen(server, DEFAULT_BACKLOG, Method(:newconnection) )
if r
? "Listen error " + uv_strerror(r)
return 1
ok
uv_run(myloop, UV_RUN_DEFAULT)
destroy_uv_tcp_t(server)
destroy_uv_sockaddr_in(addr)

func newconnection
? "New Connection"
aPara = uv_Eventpara(server,:connect)
nStatus = aPara[2]
if nStatus < 0
? "New connection error : " + nStatus
return
ok
client = new_uv_tcp_t()
uv_tcp_init(myloop, client)
if uv_accept(server, client) = 0
uv_read_start(client, uv_myalloccallback(),
Method(:echo_read))
ok

func echo_read
aPara = uv_Eventpara(client,:read)
nRead = aPara[2]
buf = aPara[3]
if nRead > 0
req = new_uv_write_t()
wrbuf = uv_buf_init(get_uv_buf_t_base(buf), nread)
uv_write(req, client, wrbuf, 1, Method(:echo_write))
? uv_buf2str(wrbuf)
message = "message from the server to the client"
buf = new_uv_buf_t()
set_uv_buf_t_len(buf,len(message))
set_uv_buf_t_base(buf,varptr("message","char *"))
uv_write(req, client, buf, 1, Method(:echo_write))
ok

func echo_write
aPara = uv_Eventpara(client,:read)
req = aPara[1]

Output:
When we run the client, We will see the message “New Connection”
Then the message “hello from the client”
Testing RingLibuv - Server Side - Using Classes
New Connection
hello from the client

Example (Using Threads):

4.12. RingLibuv Extension 44


Ring Documentation, Release 1.7

load "libuv.ring"
load "objectslib.ring"

? "Testing RingLibuv - Threads - Using Classes"

open_object(:MyThreads)

class MyThreads from ObjectControllerParent

func Start
one_id = new_uv_thread_t()
two_id = new_uv_thread_t()
uv_thread_create(one_id, Method(:One))
uv_thread_create(two_id, Method(:Two))
uv_thread_join(one_id)
uv_thread_join(two_id)
destroy_uv_thread_t(one_id)
destroy_uv_thread_t(two_id)

func one
? "Message from the First Thread!"

func Two
? "Message from the Second Thread!"

Output:
Testing RingLibuv - Threads - Using Classes
Message from the First Thread!
Message from the Second Thread!

CHAPTER

FIVE

WHAT IS NEW IN RING 1.6?

In this chapter we will learn about the changes and new features in Ring 1.6 release.

5.1 List of changes and new features

Ring 1.6 comes with many new features!


• Employee Application
• New Tool: Ring2EXE
• Better Ring For Android
• New Tool : Folder2qrc
• Better Scripts for building Ring
• RingConsoleColors Extension
• RingMurmurHash Extension
• Better Ring Notepad
• Better RingQt
• Better StdLib
• Better RingVM
• Better RingREPL
• Using Tab instead of char(9)
• Using CR as Carriage return
• Using the ! operator as not
• Using && and || operators
• Using ? to print expression then new line

5.2 Employee Application

The Employee application is added to ring/applications


Developer: Ahmed Hassouna

46
Ring Documentation, Release 1.7

5.3 New Tool: Ring2EXE

In Ring 1.6 we have a nice tool called Ring2EXE (Written in Ring itself)
Using Ring2EXE we can distribute applications quickly for Windows, Linux, macOS and Mobile devices
Read the chapter “Distributing Ring Applications using Ring2EXE” for more information!

5.4 Better Ring For Android

Ring For Android (using RingQt) is updated to use the Ring Object File ( *.ringo ) instead of using many source code
files ( *.ring )
The next screen shot is an example of building the cards game for Android
We are using cards.ringo instead of cards.ring
If you have large project (many *.ring files) it will use only one *.ringo file.

5.3. New Tool: Ring2EXE 47


Ring Documentation, Release 1.7

To prepare Qt project to distribute RingQt application for Mobile use Ring2EXE


Example
ring2exe cards.ring -dist -mobileqt

Example (2)
ring2exe formdesigner.ring -dist -mobileqt

5.4. Better Ring For Android 48


Ring Documentation, Release 1.7

5.5 New Tool: Folder2qrc

When we have large RingQt project that contains a lot of images and files, We need to add these files to the resource
file ( *.qrc ) when distributing applications for Mobile devices.
Instead of adding these files one by one, Ring 1.6 comes with a simple tool that save our time, It’s called Folder2qrc.
Example:
folder2qrc formdesigner.ring

We determine the main source file while we are in the application folder, and Folder2qrc will check all of the files in
the current folder and sub folders, Then add them to the resource file after the mainfile.ringo (In our example this will
be formdesigner.ringo)
The output file will be : project.qrc
You can open it and remove the files that you don’t need in the resources!

5.6 Better Scripts for building Ring

Ring 1.6 comes with better scripts for building Ring from source code.
The updates are tested on 32bit and 64bit systems on Windows, Linux (Ubuntu,Fedora) and macOS.
The scripts for Windows are updated to find the Visual C/C++ compiler based on your Visual Studio version.

5.7 RingConsoleColors Extension

Using the RingConsoleColors extension we can easily change the colors used in our console applications

For more information check the RingConsoleColors chapter in the documentation.

5.5. New Tool: Folder2qrc 49


Ring Documentation, Release 1.7

5.8 RingMurmurHash Extension

Ring 1.6 comes with the RingMurmurHash extension!


Developer: Hassan Ahmed
Example:
load "murmurhashlib.ring"

key = "Ring Language"

see murmurhash3_x86_32(key, 0, 0) + nl // Output: 1894444853


see murmurhash3_x86_32(key, 0, 1) + nl // Output: 70eaef35

For more information check the RingMurmurHash chapter in the documentation.

5.9 Better Ring Notepad

Ring Notepad comes with the next updates


1. Automatic setting for the Main File when we Run the application (using the Main file buttons).
2. Main File - Automatic save before running.
3. When we run GUI application - don’t change the focus to the text box used for the input in the Output Window.
4. A button and option to run web applications

For Windows users, Ring 1.6 comes with Apache Web server!
We can run any web application from any folder directly without doing any configuration.

5.8. RingMurmurHash Extension 50


Ring Documentation, Release 1.7

5. Tools - Operating System - Terminal (Command Prompt) & Files Manager (Explorer).

So we can quickly open the Command Prompt or the Explorer at the application folder.

5.9. Better Ring Notepad 51
