* 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/Makefile.am:
* libguile/vectors.c:
* libguile/vectors.h:
* libguile/generalized-vectors.c:
* libguile/generalized-vectors.h: Move generic vector ops off into their
own file too. The implementation is now based on the generic
array-handle infrastructure.
* libguile.h:
* libguile/array-map.c:
* libguile/bitvectors.c:
* libguile/random.c:
* libguile/srfi-4.c: Update includers.
* 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.
