* NEWS: Update.
* am/bootstrap.am (SOURCES):
* module/Makefile.am (SOURCES): Add system/foreign-library.scm.
* configure.ac: Replace ltdl check with -ldl check.
* libguile/dynl.c: Rewrite to just expose core dlopen / dlsym / etc to a
helper Scheme module.
(scm_dynamic_link, scm_dynamic_pointer, scm_dynamic_function)
(scm_dynamic_object_p, scm_dynamic_call): Rewrite in terms of (system
foreign-library).
* libguile/extensions.c (load_extension): Avoid scm_dynamic_call.
* module/system/foreign-library.scm: New file.
* module/oop/goops.scm (<dynamic-object>): Hackily export
<foreign-library> instead of a class here.
* doc/ref/api-foreign.texi (Foreign Function Interface): Rewrite to only
document the new interfaces. Eventually we will deprecate
dynamic-link and friends.
* doc/ref/guile.texi (API Reference): Move Foreign Objects after Foreign
Function Interface. Seems there should be some closer relationship
but this will do for now.
* doc/ref/tour.texi (Putting Extensions into Modules):
* doc/ref/libguile-parallel.texi (Parallel Installations): Update for
rename of Modules and Extensions to Foreign Extensions.
* libguile/deprecated.h:
* libguile/deprecated.c (scm_dynamic_unlink): Deprecate.
* libguile/guile.c: Remove ltdl include.
* test-suite/tests/foreign.test: Update tests to use new API, and update
error expectations.
Fixed <http://bugs.gnu.org/12241>.
Reported by Kurt W. Gochko <kgochko@comcast.net>.
* doc/ref/tour.texi (Writing Guile Extensions): Change example to use
scm_{to,from}_double instead of the pre-1.8 API.
* doc/ref/scheme-using.texi (Installing Site Packages): Add a new
section about where to install .scm, .go, and .so files.
* doc/ref/tour.texi: Reference it here.
* doc/ref/guile.texi: Add new section.
* doc/ref/history.texi (A Timeline of Selected Guile Releases): Update
the 2.0 release blurb.
* doc/ref/api-foreign.texi (Modules and Extensions):
* doc/ref/libguile-extensions.texi (A Sample Guile Extension):
* doc/ref/tour.texi (Linking Guile into Programs): Use
@value{EFFECTIVE-VERSION} instead of 2.0. Also fix sample extension
compilation line to include the Guile CFLAGS.
* doc/ref/scheme-scripts.texi (Invoking Guile): Some typos.
* doc/ref/tour.texi (Running Guile Scripts): More typos and PDF
improvements.
* doc/ref/scheme-using.texi (Readline, Value History): Minor rewording.
(Help Commands): Minor fixup.
* doc/ref/tour.texi: Update Guile prompts for
scheme@(guile-user)>. Update output to assume value-history is on. Lop
and crop the bug reporting section -- it was too long.
* doc/ref/tour.texi (Reporting Bugs): Update instructions for generating
a backtrace.
* doc/ref/scheme-using.texi: Update examples of Guile prompts, and add
an explanation of the prompt format.
I think it's too detailed, when compared with the other Introduction
sections. It probably also refers to concepts that haven't been
mentioned yet, but are mentioned in the following quick tour chapter;
so let's move it there.
* doc/ref/guile.texi: Move @raisesections and @lowersections for
tour.texi material from here to inside tour.texi.
* doc/ref/intro.texi (Introduction): Don't mention reporting problems
in first para. Move menu item and material for `Reporting Bugs'
from here...
* doc/ref/tour.texi (Hello Guile!): ...to here. Also mention
reporting problems in the introductory para.
* doc/ref/guile.texi (Top): New top level `Hello Guile!' menu item;
include new file tour.texi.
* doc/ref/intro.texi (Introduction): Remove whirlwind tour menu item
and material from here...
* doc/ref/tour.texi: ...to new file here.
