take the address of _into; it might be a register. Just have
scm_debug_newcell return the new cell.
* gc.c (scm_debug_newcell): Just return the new cell, instead of
taking the address of a place to store it as an argument.
* gc.h (scm_debug_newcell): Change declaration.
(Thanks to Greg Harvey.)
:autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
among BINDINGS is referenced.
(make-autoload-interface): New procedure: Constructs a stand-in
for the public interface for the module to be autoloaded.
definitions of the rudimentary classes described by objects.h.
* objects.c, objects.h (scm_entity_p): New procedure. Together
with the predicates scm_procedure_p and scm_struct_p, this
predicate makes it possible to differ between structs, entities
and operators.
handle operators and entities.
(scm_procedure_property): No need to call scm_procedure_p since
scm_i_procedure_arity now does all necessary type checking.
Added #include "objects.h".
(scm_make_hook): Optional argument defines number of arguments to
the hook.
(scm_make_named_hook): Take number of args as second arg.
(scm_run_hook): Renamed from scm_run_hooks (old name kept for a
while); First arg is the hook. The rest are arguments passed on
to the hook procedures.
s_add_hook_x --> s_remove_hook_x.
(scm_add_hook_x, scm_remove_hook_x): Hooks now takes arguments.
Added #include "procprop.h"
* feature.c, feature.h (scm_reset_hook_x): New procedure.
(scm_make_hook): Optional argument defines number of arguments to
the hook.
(scm_make_named_hook): Take number of args as second arg.
(scm_run_hook): Renamed from scm_run_hooks (old name kept for a
while); First arg is the hook. The rest are arguments passed on
to the hook procedures.
scm_logbit_p): Do the computation in ulongs. This is not as nice
as doing it in bignums, but at least it's good enough for
manipulating flags in 32-bit words. (Thanks to Jim Wilson.)
interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
code.
(process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
well if a module does :use-module on itself.
* boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
(register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
(init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
first to register linked modules.
* boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
* boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
(abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
* boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
to use from C:
(make-hook, add-hook!, remove-hook!, run-hooks): Moved to
libguile/feature.c.
* boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in
libguile/modules.c: the-module, set-current-module,
make-modules-in, beautify-user-module!, module-eval-closure.
is necessary in order to interface the object system to Guile
properly. The guts of these modules will be replaced by the new
module system in the future.)
