associated with subrs.
(SCM_SUBRNUM, SCM_SUBR_ENTRY, SCM_SUBR_GENERIC, SCM_SUBR_PROPS,
SCM_SUBR_DOC): New macros.
(scm_subr_table): New variable.
(scm_mark_subr_table): New function.
* init.c (scm_boot_guile_1): Call scm_init_subr_table.
* gc.c (scm_gc_mark): Don't mark subr names here.
(scm_igc): Call scm_mark_subr_table.
* snarf.h (SCM_GPROC, SCM_GPROC1): New macros.
* procs.c, procs.h (scm_subr_p): New function (used internally).
* gsubr.c, gsubr.h (scm_make_gsubr_with_generic): New function.
* objects.c, objects.h (scm_primitive_generic): New class.
* objects.h (SCM_CMETHOD_CODE, SCM_CMETHOD_ENV): New macros.
* print.c (scm_iprin1): Print primitive-generics.
* __scm.h (SCM_WTA_DISPATCH_1, SCM_GASSERT1,
SCM_WTA_DISPATCH_2, SCM_GASSERT2): New macros.
* eval.c (SCM_CEVAL, SCM_APPLY): Replace scm_wta -->
SCM_WTA_DISPATCH_1 for scm_cxr's (unary floating point
primitives). NOTE: This means that it is now *required* to use
SCM_GPROC1 when creating float scm_cxr's (float scm_cxr's is an
obscured representation that will be removed in the future anyway,
so backward compatibility is no problem here).
* numbers.c: Converted most numeric primitives (all but bit
comparison operations and bit operations) to dispatch on generic
if args don't match.
* eval.c, eval.h (scm_eval_body): New function.
* objects.c (scm_call_generic_0, scm_call_generic_1,
scm_call_generic_2, scm_call_generic_3, scm_apply_generic): New
functions.
* eval.c (SCM_CEVAL): Apply the cmethod directly after having
called scm_memoize_method instead of doing a second lookup.
* objects.h (scm_memoize_method): Now returns the memoized cmethod.
* procs.c (scm_make_subr_opt): Use scm_sysintern0 instead of
scm_sysintern so that the binding connected with the subr name
isn't cleared when we give set = 0.
SCM_PORT_WITH_PS_PS): Represent ports with print states as a smob
instead of a pair of a port and a print state. We'll need to cons
once extra in scm_printer_apply but the type system will be
cleaner, it will mix better with GOOPS, and, it will be even more
transparent to the user.
port, return the print state associated to it in the current print
chain, if one exists;
(scm_port_with_print_state): New procedure: Associate a
print-state with a port.
(scm_valid_oport_value_p): Use SCM_PORT_WITH_PS_P;
(scm_printer_apply): Wrap port and pstate as a smob;
(print_state_printer): Removed.
testing (otherwise the port-print-state trick won't be transparent
to the user; one example where this caused problems was in the
(ice-9 format) module).
SCM_PORT_READ, SCM_PORT_WRITE, and SCM_PORT_NEITHER (instead of
zero). The debugger knows about enums, but doesn't know about
#defines.
(typedef scm_port): Declare rw_active member to be an enum
scm_port_rw_active.
* fports.c (fport_flush, fport_end_input): Use SCM_PORT_NEITHER
instead of zero.
* ports.c (scm_add_to_port_table): Same.
* strports.c (st_flush, st_end_input): Same.
* ports.c (scm_seek): one more: was scm_lseek. Also changed the
Scheme name from lseek to seek, but lseek was added recently so
it shouldn't be a big problem.
* ports.c, gdbint.c, ioext.c: changed callers.
* fports.c (fport_input_waiting): if select is used, return 1
instead of whatever FD_ISSET expands to. maybe it will be useful
to interpret the value from the input_waiting ptob procedure as a
lower bound on the number of bytes available.
* Mikael asked for a few names to be changed...
* ports.c (scm_make_port_type): take the write procedure as the
second argument instead of the flush procedure.
* ports.h (scm_ptob_descriptor): rename the ptob procedures:
fflush -> flush, read_flush -> end_input, fclose -> close,
fill_buffer -> fill_input, ftruncate -> truncate,
input_waiting_p -> input_waiting.
* ports.c (end_input_void_port): was read_flush_void_port.
(scm_set_port_end_input): was scm_set_port_flush_input.
(scm_set_port_flush): was scm_set_port_write.
(scm_set_port_input_waiting): was scm_set_port_input_waiting_p
(scm_end_input): was scm_read_flush.
(scm_fill_input): was scm_fill_buffer.
(scm_flush): was scm_fflush.
* fports.c (fport_input_waiting): renamed from fport_input_waiting_p.
(fport_end_input): was local_read_flush.
(fport_flush): was local_fflush.
(fport_close): was local_fclose.
(fport_truncate): was local_ftruncate.
(fport_seek): was local_seek.
(fport_free): was local_free.
(fport_fill_input): was fport_fill_buffer.
* strports.c (st_end_input): was st_read_flush.
(st_truncate): was st_ftruncate.
* vports.c: (sf_flush): was sfflush.
(sf_close): was sfclose.
(sf_fill_input): was sf_fill_buffer.
* ports.c, fports.c, strports, vports.c, ioext.c, unif.c, filesys.c:
change callers.
apply).
(scm_operator_p): Added.
(scm_sym_atdispatch): Added.
(scm_set_object_procedure_x): Modified to handle the new style
generic functions.
(scm_object_procedures): New debugging procedure.
forms now contain the expressions to be dispatched upon instead of
depending on a surrounding lambda or let; Generic function
dispatch has been optimized; `apply' on a generic function now
works a little bit strangely. It uses a trick so that the type
dispatch code in SCM_CEVAL can be reused.
