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.
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.
(scm_class_keyword): Removed. (Class is automatically created by
make_smob_classes.)
(scm_smob_class): Array of smob classes indexed by smobnum.
(scm_make_extended_class): "Plugin" function pointer for creation
of wrapper classes for smob and struct types.
(scm_class_of): Handle compiled closures. (Currently regarded as
<procedure>.);
Use scm_smob_class to handle smob types;
Handle scm_tc16_bigpos, scm_tc16_bigneg, and, scm_tc16_keyword
through scm_smob_class;
Handle structs.
* Makefile.am, init.c, libguile.h, objects.c, root.h: Replaced
"kw" --> "keywords" everywhere.
(I doubt that this will cause big compatibility problems since the
application interface is unaffected.)
make_class_object; exported; error checking moved to
scm_make_class_object and scm_make_subclass_object.
(scm_make_class_object, scm_make_subclass_object): Use
scm_i_make_class_object.
(scm_make_subclass_object): Let the subclass have same metaclass
as the superclass.
Some indentation fixes.
* objects.h (SCM_METACLASS_STANDARD_LAYOUT): Printer field is no
longer a user field; New field: class_flags.
* objets.c, objects.h: New metaclass: scm_metaclass_operator.
