* libguile/bytevectors.h (SCM_BYTEVECTOR_INLINE_P): Change to check a
flag instead of checking the length of the bytevector.
* libguile/bytevectors.c (make_bytevector_from_buffer): Handle the len
<= inline threshold case as well. Set the inline flag as appropriate.
(make_bytevector): Updat the inline flag as appropriate.
(scm_c_take_bytevector): Just dispatch to make_bytevector_from_buffer.
(scm_i_shrink_bytevector): Update the inline flag as appropriate.
Update the length when shrinking an already-inlined vector.
(STRING_TO_UTF): Fix some indentation.
* libguile/generalized-vectors.h:
* libguile/generalized-vectors.c: Add a registry of vector constructors.
(scm_make_generalized_vector): New public function, constructs a
vector of a given type.
* libguile/bitvectors.c:
* libguile/bytevectors.c:
* libguile/srfi-4.c:
* libguile/strings.c:
* libguile/vectors.c: Register vector constructors.
* libguile/extensions.c (scm_init_extensions): No need to NULL the list
of registered extensions here, the static init does it for us. Allows
scm_c_register_extension to be called before scm_init_extensions.
* libguile/init.c (scm_i_init_guile): Move array initialization earlier,
so e.g. scm_init_strings has access to a valid list of array element
types when registering its vector constructor.
* libguile/array-handle.c (scm_i_register_array_implementation):
(scm_i_array_implementation_for_obj): Add generic array facility,
which will (in a few commits) detangle the array code.
(scm_array_get_handle): Use the generic array facility. Note that
scm_t_array_handle no longer has ref and set function pointers;
instead it has a pointer to the array implementation. It is unlikely
that code out there used these functions, however, as the supported
way was through scm_array_handle_ref/set_x.
(scm_array_handle_pos): Move this function here from arrays.c.
(scm_array_handle_element_type): New function, returns a Scheme value
representing the type of element stored in this array.
* libguile/array-handle.h (scm_t_array_element_type): New enum, for
generically determining the type of an array.
(scm_array_handle_rank):
(scm_array_handle_dims): These are now just #defines.
* libguile/arrays.c:
* libguile/bitvectors.c:
* libguile/bytevectors.c:
* libguile/srfi-4.c:
* libguile/strings.c:
* libguile/vectors.c: Register array implementations for all of these.
* libguile/inline.h: Update for array_handle_ref/set change.
* libguile/deprecated.h: Need to include arrays.h now.
* libguile/bytevectors.h (scm_i_native_endianness): Allow the VM to use
scm_i_native_endianness, but still keep it marked as internal.
* libguile/bytevectors.c: Adjust to use scm_i_native_endianness instead
of native_endianness. Define it at bootstrap time.
* libguile/bytevectors.c (scm_tc16_bytevector, print_bytevector,
bytevector_equal_p, free_bytevector): Don't use the snarfing macros.
(scm_bootstrap_bytevectors): New.
(scm_init_bytevectors): No longer initialize SCM_NULL_BYTEVECTOR,
which is done by `scm_bootstrap_bytevectors ()'.
* libguile/bytevectors.h (scm_bootstrap_bytevectors): New declaration.
(scm_init_bytevectors): Made internal. This can be done because we
explicitly register it with `scm_c_register_extension ()' in
`scm_bootstrap_bytevectors ()'.
* libguile/init.c (scm_i_init_guile): Call `scm_bootstrap_bytevectors ()'.
This is so that expressions like "(generalized-vector-length #vu8())"
work even when `(rnrs bytevector)' hasn't been loaded.
As a side effect, this allows compilation of literal bytevectors
("#vu8(...)"), which gets done by the generic array handling
of the GLIL->assembly compiler.
* doc/ref/api-compound.texi (Generalized Vectors): Mention bytevectors.
(Arrays, Array Syntax): Likewise.
* doc/ref/api-data.texi (Bytevectors as Generalized Vectors): New node.
* libguile/bytevectors.c (scm_i_bytevector_generalized_set_x): New.
* libguile/bytevectors.h (scm_i_bytevector_generalized_set_x): New
declaration.
* libguile/srfi-4.c (scm_i_generalized_vector_type,
scm_array_handle_uniform_element_size,
scm_array_handle_uniform_writable_elements): Add support for
bytevectors.
* libguile/unif.c (type_creator_table): Add `vu8'.
(bytevector_ref, bytevector_set): New functions.
(memoize_ref, memoize_set): Add support for bytevectors.
* libguile/vectors.c (scm_is_generalized_vector,
scm_c_generalized_vector_length, scm_c_generalized_vector_ref,
scm_c_generalized_vector_set_x): Add support for bytevectors.
* test-suite/tests/bytevectors.test ("Generalized Vectors"): New test
set.
* libguile/bytevectors.c (bytevector_equal_p): New function.
* test-suite/tests/bytevectors.test ("2.3 Operations on Bytes and
Octets")["equal?"]: New test.
* module/rnrs/bytevector.scm (rnrs):
* libguile/bytevectors.h:
* libguile/bytevectors.c (scm_uniform_array_to_bytevector): New function.
* libguile/unif.h:
* libguile/unif.c (scm_from_contiguous_typed_array): New function.
* libguile/vm-i-loader.c (load-array): New instruction, for loading byte
data into uniform vectors. Currently it copies out the data, though in
the future we could avoid that.
* module/language/assembly.scm (align-code): New exported function,
aligns code on some boundary.
(align-program): Use align-code.
* module/language/assembly/compile-bytecode.scm (write-bytecode): Support
the load-array instruction.
* module/language/glil/compile-assembly.scm (dump-object): Dump uniform
arrays. Neat :)
