* Renumbers the IFLAG constants. * Adds several macros related to boolean type tests, null tests, and boolean-truth testing (including lisp-style boolean-truth tests). * Adds compile-time checks to verify the necessary IFLAG numbering properties needed for the checks to work properly. * Changes some existing code to use the new optimized macros, without changing the semantics of the code at all (except that scm_is_bool is changed from a function to a macro). I added the following macros, whose names explicitly state how %nil should be handled. See the comments in the patch for more information about these. scm_is_false_assume_not_lisp_nil scm_is_true_assume_not_lisp_nil scm_is_false_and_not_lisp_nil scm_is_true_or_lisp_nil scm_is_false_or_lisp_nil scm_is_true_and_not_lisp_nil scm_is_lisp_false scm_is_lisp_true scm_is_null_assume_not_lisp_nil scm_is_null_and_not_lisp_nil scm_is_null_or_lisp_nil scm_is_bool_and_not_lisp_nil scm_is_bool_or_lisp_nil The following already-existing macros are defined as aliases, such that their semantics is unchanged (although scm_is_bool used to be a function and is now a macro). scm_is_null --> scm_is_null_and_not_lisp_nil scm_is_false --> scm_is_false_and_not_lisp_nil scm_is_true --> scm_is_true_or_lisp_nil scm_is_bool --> scm_is_bool_and_not_lisp_nil (I still believe that these should be changed to versions that handle %nil properly, but await approval on that point, so these patches do not make those changes) Also, if the preprocessor macro SCM_ENABLE_ELISP is not true (this macro already existed and was used in lang.h), all overheads associated with %nil handling are eliminated from the above macros. * libguile/tags.h (SCM_BOOL_F, SCM_BOOL_T, SCM_UNSPECIFIED) (SCM_UNDEFINED, SCM_UNBOUND, SCM_ELISP_NIL): Renumber, so that a number of important distinctions (false versus true, end-of-list, etc) can be made by masking a single bit. Also define a number of build-time tests to assert that this condition holds. * libguile/boolean.h (scm_is_false_and_not_nil, scm_is_true_or_nil) (scm_is_false_assume_not_nil, scm_is_true_assume_not_nil): (scm_is_false_or_nil, scm_is_true_and_not_nil) (scm_is_bool_or_nil, scm_is_bool_and_not_nil): New exciting macros to test certain boolean/end-of-list properties. (scm_is_false, scm_is_true): Use a restrictive definition, where only SCM_BOOL_F is false. Should probably change in the future. (scm_is_bool): Incompatible change: changed to be a macro. Was a function before. Probably should allow nil as a boolean, but that will be for a later patch. (scm_is_lisp_false, scm_is_lisp_true): New macros, implementing the standard Lisp boolean predicates, where '() is actually false. * libguile/eval.i.c (CEVAL): Fix a number of false-or-nil and similar tests to use the new macros. * libguile/lang.h (SCM_NULL_OR_NIL_P): Use scm_is_null_or_nil. * libguile/pairs.c: Add a compile-time check that null and nil differ by only one bit. * libguile/pairs.h (scm_is_null_and_not_nil, scm_is_null_assume_not_nil) (scm_is_null_or_nil): New exciting macros! (scm_is_null): Just be scm_is_null_and_not_nil, for now. * libguile/print.c: Adapt to the reordering, and print suitably nasty things for the not-to-be-used values.
