and we don't want that.
(INCLUDES): Removed all -I options except for the root source
directory and the root build directory.
* *.*: Change includes so that they always use the "prefixes"
libguile/, qt/, guile-readline/, or libltdl/.
(Thanks to Tim Mooney.)
separate loop after processing all the currently known live
guardians, so as to not introduce order dependencies (thanks to
Gary Houston). also, make another outer loop to process zombified
guardians (which are uncovered while marking zombies).
empty tconc pair to SCM_EOL instead of SCM_BOOL_F, avoiding the
use of an improper list (which breaks g_print. g_print isn't
used).
guardians.c: Added more comments and modified the make-guardian
docstring. Reordered a few procedures.
displaying the expected type. Use SCM_LISTn in a couple places
instead of scm_cons-ing by hand.
* __scm.h: Added SCM_ASSERT_TYPE macro.
* validate.h, scm_validate.h: Added the former, as a renamed
version of the latter with SCM_ASSERT_TYPE used in
SCM_MAKE_VALIDATE (instead of just SCM_ASSERT)
* Makefile.am: Rename scm_validate.h to validate.h.
* *.c, *.h: Include validate.h, not scm_validate.h (old name's
prefix was superfluous).
regex-posix.c, scmsigs.c, stime.c, strings.c, variable.c, stime.c,
strings.c, variable.c: Added lots of documentation, cleaned up
some existing documentation. Occasionally changed formal params
to match docs. Also folded an #ifdef into the inners of a
primitive instead of having two copies of the primitive
(`get-internal-real-time', from stime.c)
function headers and argument checking. Switched SCM_PROC,
SCM_PROC1 macros to be GUILE_PROC, GUILE_PROC1 (may change names
later, but was useful to keep old versions around while migrate)
that has docstrings and argument lists embedded in the GUILE_PROC
macro invocations that expand into a function header. Use lots of
new SCM_VALIDATE_* macros to simplify error checking and reduce
tons of redundancy. This is very similar to what I did for Scwm.
Note that none of the extraction of the docstrings, nor software
engineering checks of Scwm is yet added to Guile. I'll work on
that tomorrow, I expect.
* Makefile.am: Added scm_validate.h to modinclude_HEADERS.
* chars.c: Added docstrings for the primitives defined in here.
* snarf.h: Added GUILE_PROC, GUILE_PROC1. Added
SCM_REGISTER_PROC to be like old SCM_PROC, though old SCM_PROC
still remains for now. Changed naming convention for the s_foo
string name of the primitive to be s_scm_foo for ease of use with
the macro.
* scm_validate.h: Lots of new SCM_VALIDATE macros to simplify
argument checking through guile. Maybe some of these should be
folded into the header file for the types they check, but for now
it was easiest to just stick them all in one place.
chaining the live guardians in a single-linked list during the GC
mark phase.
(GUARDIAN_NEXT): convenience macro to access the `next' field.
(guardians, guardians_size, n_guardians): deleted.
(first_live_guardian, current_link_field): new globals used to
point to the head of the live guardian list and current `next'
field, respectively.
(g_mark): append the guardian to the live guardian list.
(scm_guardian_gc_init): zero the live guardian list.
(scm_guardian_zombify): iterate through the live guardian list.
scm_guardian_gc_init, scm_guardian_zombify, scm_guard,
scm_get_one_zombie, scm_init_guardian): This is an implementation
of guardians as described in R. Kent Dybvig, Carl Bruggeman, and
David Eby (1993) "Guardians in a Generation-Based Garbage
Collector" ACM SIGPLAN Conference on Programming Language Design
and Implementation, June 1993 ftp://ftp.cs.indiana.edu
