are now defined even when dynamic linking is not available for the
host system. Some of their functionality can be done without
dynamic linking; when it's really needed, they throw errors.
primitives.
load errno.scm.
* netconst.scm: undefine maybe-define and maybe-define-so after use.
* errno.scm: new file.
* fports.c (scm_open_file): pass errno to scm_syserror_msg.
* filesys.h: update prototypes. Remove macros: SCM_FD_P, SCM_FD_FLAGS,
SCM_FD.
* filesys.c (scm_sys_stat, scm_sys_lstat): pass errno to
scm_syserror_msg.
* (scm_sys_read_fd, scm_sys_write_fd, scm_sys_close, scm_sys_lseek,
scm_sys_dup): deleted: FD capability will be added to other
procedures.
* Remove support for the FD object type: scm_tc16_fd, scm_fd_print,
scm_fd_free, fd_smob, scm_intern_fd.
* (scm_open): renamed from scm_sys_open. Return a port instead of
an FD object. Make the mode argument optional.
* (scm_sys_create): deleted, it's just a special case of open.
(scm_init_filesys): move interning of constants O_CREAT etc.,
here (were previously using SCM_CONST_LONG macro).
Add missing constants: O_RDONLY, O_WRONLY, O_RDWR, O_CREAT.
don't newsmob fd.
(numerous _sys_ procedures): remove gratuitous _sys_ from names.
include "fports.h" and <stdio.h>
(scm_stat, scm_select): don't support FD objects.
* error.h: adjust scm_syserror_msg prototype.
* error.c (scm_syserror_msg): take an extra argument for errno.
Using the global value didn't always work, since it could be
reset by procedure calls in the message or args arguments.
* fports.c (scm_setbuf0): call setbuf even if FIONREAD is not defined.
I don't understand why the check was there (and what about the
ultrix check?)
* strop.c (scm_string_copy): allow shared substrings to be copied.
* unif.h: corresponding change to prototypes.
* unif.c (scm_uniform_array_read_x, scm_uniform_array_write_x):
recognize two new optional arguments: offset and length. Allow
the port argument to be an integer (file descriptor, for scsh).
Include <unistd.h> for "read" prototype.
scm_sysintern_no_module_lookup.
(scm_sysintern): New function to take the place of the old
scm_sysintern. It uses the current toplevel lookup closure to give
the symbol its value. This is a temporary hack to put packages
like gtcltk into their own module.
(scm_can_use_top_level_lookup_closure_var): New variable to tell
us whether `scm_top_level_lookup_closure_var' has been initialized
and is usable.
* eval.c (scm_init_eval): Set it.
function in a dynamic object.
(scm_dynamic_call, scm_dynamic_args_call): Accept the values
produced by scm_dynamic_func as the thing to call.
* dynl.c, dynl-dl.c, dynl-dld.c, dynl-shl.c: Restructured.
(scm_register_module_xxx, scm_registered_modules,
scm_clear_registered_modules): New functions.
* boot-9.scm (split-c-module-name, convert-c-registered-modules,
init-dynamic-module, dynamic-maybe-call,
find-and-link-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module,
try-module-dynamic-link, registered-modules): New definitions for
dynamic linking of modules.
(resolve-module): Try to dynamically link the requested module
after failing to load it as Scheme code.
errnos_get.c.
Add a rule to generate errnos.c from errnos.
* error.c (scm_init_error): include errnos.c.
* errnos_cnvt.awk: new file, converts the list of errno codes to
C expressions.
* errnos_get.c: new file.
* errnos.default: new file, contains errnos to try if they can't
be extracted from errno.h.
* configure.in: if using GCC, try and extract errno codes from
errno.h.
Added AC_PROG_AWK.
* Makefile.am: Made libguile into a libtool library.
* PLUGIN/guile.config: Removed "-L ../libguile" from xtra_cflags.
Set libtool_libs to indicate that libguile is a libtool library.
See guile/ChangeLog for details.
* .cvsignore: ignore "*.lo", the libtool library objects.
<sys/types.h> as well as <sys/socket.h>. I've never known
<sys/types.h> to cause any portability problems, and Solaris's
<sys/socket.h> needs it.
* configure: Rebuilt.
ANSI declarations combined with K&R definitions. We'll
appease it a little bit. But when it invades France, we fight.
* print.c (scm_iprlist): Change 'tlr' argument to an int.
* print.h (scm_iprlist): Here too.
* numbers.c (scm_divbigdig): Change definition to match
declaration in numbers.h.
* unif.c (scm_makflo): Change definition to match declaration in
unif.h.
