from scm_sys_try_load and scm_sys_try_load_path. The Scheme name
of scm_primitive_load_path was also changed to
"primitive-load-path", from "%try-load-path". Callers changed.
We'd like to respect the convention that a function named
"try-mumble" should behave just like the function called "mumble",
but return #f instead of signalling some error.
* load.h: Rename prototypes.
declare the char * to be const. Avoids a warning in rgx.c.
* ports.h: spelling fix.
* filesys.c (scm_sys_stat, scm_sys,lstat): include file name in
error messages.
* load.c (scm_sys_try_load_path): throw an error if file not found
(like it says it in NEWS).
by scm_open_file is #f, it won't be. Always return SCM_UNSPECIFIED.
Change the Scheme name from %try-load to primitive-load.
* error.c (scm_error): convert a NULL message to SCM_BOOL_F.
Can avoid passing a message, allowing it to be derived in the
error handler (e.g., if we want to throw to the key both from
Scheme and C).
Move code to initialize and search %load-path from ice-9 to C
code, so we can use the load-path to find the ice-9 boot code;
this makes it easier to run Guile without installing it. See
corresponding changes in guile/Makefile.in.
* feature.c: Move stuff concerned with the load path to load.c.
(scm_compiled_library_path): Deleted.
Don't #include libpath.h here.
* feature.h: Don't mention scm_compiled_library_path.
* load.c: #include "libpath.h" here, as well as <sys/types.h>,
<sys/stat.h>, and <unistd.h> (if present).
(R_OK): #define if the system hasn't deigned to.
(scm_loc_load_path): New variable.
(scm_init_load_path, scm_sys_search_load_path,
scm_sys_try_load_path): New functions.
(scm_init_load): Initialize scm_loc_load_path to point to the
value cell of the Scheme %load-path variable.
* load.h: Add declarations for scm_sys_search_load_path,
scm_sys_try_load_path.
* init.c: Call scm_init_load_path.
* Makefile.in (feature.o, load.o): Dependencies updated.
* load.c, load.h: Rewrite using PROTO macro.
