 102         (scm_stat, scm_directory_stream_p, scm_getcwd, scm_readlink):
 103         Docstring correction: `Returns' -> `Return'
 104
 105         * gc.c (scm_set_debug_cell_accesses_x):
 106         (s_scm_gc_set_debug_check_freelist_x):
 107         * fluids.c (scm_fluid_p): Added texinfo markup.

 119
 120 2001-04-01  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
 121
 122         * gc.c (MARK):  Re-introduce a cheap sanity test for non debug
 123         mode, as suggested by Michael Livshin.
 124
 125 2001-03-31  Michael Livshin  <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
 126
 127         * backtrace.c (display_backtrace_body): since the `print_state'
 128         variable is not used (instead its data field is used directly as
 129         `pstate'), protect it from the hungry compiler optimizations.
 130         thanks to Bill Schottstaedt for the report.
 131
 132 2001-03-30  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
 133
 134         * gc.[ch] (scm_tc16_allocated):  New type tag for allocated cells.
 135         It is only defined and used if guile is compiled with
 136         SCM_DEBUG_CELL_ACCESSES set to true.  It's purpose is, to never
 137         let cells with a free_cell type tag be visible outside of the
 138         garbage collector when in debug mode.
 139
 140         * gc.c (scm_debug_cell_accesses_p):  Set to true as default.
 141
 142         (scm_assert_cell_valid):  Use a local static variable to avoid
 143         recursion.
 144
 145         (MARK):  Only check for rogue cell pointers in debug mode.  Use
 146         scm_cellp for this purpose and place all checks for rogue pointers
 147         into that function.  Further, since due to conservative scanning
 148         we may encounter free cells during marking, don't use the standard
 149         cell type accessor macro to determine the cell type.
 150
 151         (scm_cellp):  Check if the cell pointer actually points into a
 152         card header.
 153
 154         (scm_init_gc):  Initalize scm_tc16_allocated.
 155
 156         * gc.h (GCH):  Renamed to SCM_GC_H.
 157
 158         (SCM_VALIDATE_CELL):  Enclose the expression in brackets.  This
 159         might be unnecessary, but I feel better this way :-)
 160
 161         (SCM_GC_CELL_TYPE):  New macro.
 162
 163         (SCM_SETAND_CDR, SCM_SETOR_CDR):  Deprecated.  These are not used
 164         in guile, and it is unlikely that they will be applied to real
 165         pairs anyway.
 166
 167         (SCM_SET_FREE_CELL_TYPE):  Removed.  It was not used.
 168
 169         (SCM_GC_SET_ALLOCATED):  New macro.  Only non-empty if guile is
 170         compiled with SCM_DEBUG_CELL_ACCESSES set to true.
 171
 172         (SCM_NEWCELL, SCM_NEWCELL2):  Use of SCM_GC_SET_ALLOCATED will
 173         make sure that in debug mode no free cell will ever be visible
 174         outside of the garbage collector.
 175
 176 2001-03-30  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
 177
 178         * async.c (scm_asyncs_pending):  Don't use != to compare SCM
 179         values.
 180
 181         * async.c (scm_system_async), variable.c (scm_make_variable,
 182         scm_make_undefined_variable):  Use scm_cons to create a pair.
 183
 184         * debug.c (scm_reverse_lookup):  Perform proper type checking.
 185         Remove suspicious use of SCM_SLOPPY_CONSP.
 186
 187         * eq.c (scm_equal_p), tags.h (SCM_ECONSP):  Use SCM_CONSP instead
 188         of SCM_SLOPPY_CONSP.  A sane compiler should be able to perform
 189         the corresponding optimization.
 190
 191         * eval.c (iqq):  Use proper type check.
 192
 193         (scm_m_expand_body):  Remove redundant type checks.
 194
 195         (promise_print):  Don't access promise cells as pairs.
 196
 197         * eval.c (EVALCAR, iqq, scm_m_expand_body, scm_eval_args,
 198         scm_deval_args SCM_CEVAL), guardians.c (scm_guard), hashtab.c
 199         (scm_internal_hash_fold), print.c (scm_iprlist):  Use !SCM_CELLP
 200         for SCM_NCELLP, !SCM_CONSP for SCM_NCONSP, !SCM_IMP for SCM_NIMP,
 201         !SCM_FALSEP for SCM_NFALSEP, !SCM_NULLP for SCM_NNULLP
 202
 203         * eval.c (scm_m_define, scm_macroexp, SCM_CEVAL), print.c
 204         (scm_iprin1):  Use new macro predicate and accessors.
 205
 206         * eval.h (scm_tc16_macro):  Removed declaration.  It is declared
 207         in macros.h.
 208
 209         * eval.h (EVALH), macros.h (MACROSH), ports.h (PORTSH), procs.h
 210         (PROCSH), tags.h (TAGSH), variable.h (VARIABLEH):  Renamed to
 211         SCM_EVAL_H, SCM_MACROS_H, SCM_PORTS_H, SCM_PROCS_H, SCM_TAGS_H and
 212         SCM_VARIABLE_H.  Even the macros that are used to inhibit
 213         including a header file twice should be in the SCM_ namespace.
 214
 215         * fluids.c (scm_swap_fluids, scm_swap_fluids_reverse),
 216         properties.c (scm_primitive_property_ref,
 217         scm_primitive_property_del_x):  Prefer stronger predicates like
 218         SCM_NULLP or SCM_FALSEP over SCM_IMP.
 219
 220         * gc.c (MARK):  Use proper macros to access procedure-with-setter
 221         cell elements and closure cell elements.
 222
 223         (gc_sweep_freelist_finish, scm_gc_sweep, init_heap_seg):  Don't
 224         access free cells as pairs.
 225
 226         (scm_unprotect_object):  scm_hashq_get_handle returns #f if
 227         no hashtab entry is found.
 228
 229         * gc.c (scm_gc_sweep), ports.c (scm_close_port):  Use new macro
 230         SCM_CLR_PORT_OPEN_FLAG.
 231
 232         * guardians.c (TCONC_IN), print.c (scm_free_print_state):  Don't
 233         use SCM_SET_C[AD]R for uninitialized cells.
 234
 235         * hashtab.c (scm_hash_fn_get_handle):  Use SCM_VALIDATE_VECTOR.
 236         If the hashtable has no slots, return #f instead of '().  This
 237         unifies the return value with most assoc-functions.
 238
 239         (scm_hash_fn_ref):  Use proper type check.
 240
 241         (scm_hashq_get_handle, scm_hashv_get_handle, scm_hash_get_handle):
 242         Removed references to non-existing functions from documentation.
 243
 244         * keywords.c (scm_keyword_dash_symbol):  Use proper macros to
 245         access keyword cell elements.
 246
 247         * macros.h (SCM_MACROP, SCM_MACRO_TYPE, SCM_MACRO_CODE):  New
 248         macros.
 249
 250         * ports.h (SCM_CLR_PORT_OPEN_FLAG):  New macro.
 251
 252         * print.c (scm_iprlist):  Added comment.  Improved loop
 253         conditions.
 254
 255         * procs.h (SCM_ENV, SCM_SETENV):  Don't access closure cells as
 256         pairs.
 257
 258         * smob.c (scm_markcdr):  Don't access smob cells as pairs.
 259
 260         * tags.h (SCM_SLOPPY_CONSP, SCM_SLOPPY_NCONSP):  Deprecated.
 261
 262         * throw.c (ACTIVATEJB, DEACTIVATEJB):  Don't access jump buffer
 263         cells as pairs.
 264
 265         * variable.c (variable_print, variable_equalp, scm_variable_ref,
 266         scm_variable_set_x):  Use proper macros to access variable cell
 267         elements.
 268
 269         (scm_variable_bound_p):  Don't use SCM_NEGATE_BOOL.
 270
 271         * variable.h (SCM_VARVCELL):  Don't access variable cells as
 272         pairs.
 273
 274         * vectors.c (scm_vector), weaks.c (scm_weak_vector):  Simplified,
 275         added FIXME comment, removed register specifier.
 276
 277 2001-03-29  Keisuke Nishida  <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
 278
 279         * goops.c, goops.h (scm_init_oop_goops_goopscore_module): Deprecated.
 280         * init.c (scm_init_guile_1): Don't init goopscore module.
 281
 282 2001-03-27  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
 283
 284         * eval.c (SCM_APPLY): Check that arg1 is bound for scm_tc7_cxr.
 285

 287
 288         * strop.c (scm_string_to_list): Fixed docstring markup.
 289         (scm_string_upcase_x, scm_string_upcase, scm_string_downcase_x),
 290         (scm_string_downcase, scm_string_capitalize_x),
 291         (scm_string_capitalize): Rewrote and corrected docstrings.
 292         (scm_string_ci_to_symbol): Made docstring more explicit.
 293

 295
 296         * values.h (scm_values_vtable, SCM_VALUESP): Moved here so that
 297         eval.c can use it.
 298         (scm_call_with_values): Removed.
 299         * values.c (values_vtable, scm_values_vtable): Added "scm_" prefix
 300         so that it can be exported.
 301         (scm_call_with_values): Removed.
 302
 303         * tags.h (SCM_IM_CALL_WITH_VALUES): New isym.
 304         * eval.c: Include "libguile/values.h"

 637         * Makefile.am (*.x): Add dependency on snarf.h and guile-doc-snarf.in.
 638         (*.doc): Add dependency on guile-snarf.awk.in.
 639
 640         * guile-snarf.awk.in: Neglect spaces at the end of
 641         SCM_SNARF_DOCSTRING_END.  Skip lines "# NN ..." in the
 642         middle of docstrings.  (To avoid the problem with gcc-2.96.)
 643
 644 2001-03-06  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
 645
 646         * coop-threads.c (scm_call_with_new_thread), load.c

 648         (scm_c_default_rstate), struct.c (scm_make_struct_layout,
 649         scm_struct_ref, scm_struct_set_x):  Don't use SCM_ASSERT to
 650         (potentially) issue a scm-misc-error or wrong-num-args error
 651         message.
 652
 653         * load.c (scm_search_path):  Use SCM_ASSERT_TYPE to give details
 654         about the expected type with the wrong-type-arg error message.
 655
 656         * smob.c (scm_make_smob):  Abort on misuse of smob - it indicates
 657         a C level bug that can't be fixed from scheme anyway.
 658
 659 2001-03-05  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
 660
 661         * eval.c (scm_m_letstar): Removed check for duplicate bindings.
 662         Duplicate bindings are OK in a let* since a let* is semantically
 663         equivalent to a nested set of let:s.
 664
 665 2001-03-05  Martin Grabmueller  <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
 666
 667         * print.c (scm_print_options): Fixed texinfo in docstring.
 668
 669         * net_db.c (scm_getserv, scm_getproto, scm_getnet): Return #f if
 670         the underlying functions getservent, getprotoent or getnetent
 671         return NULL instead of signalling an error.

 673 2001-03-04  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
 674
 675         * socket.c (scm_fill_sockaddr): don't allow buffer overflows when
 676         taking an unexpectedly large filename for an AF_UNIX socket from
 677         bind/connect/sendto (thanks to Martin Grabmueller).
 678
 679         * socket.c (scm_sock_fd_to_port, SCM_SOCK_FD_TO_PORT): removed the
 680         former and adjusted the latter.
 681         (scm_socket, scm_socketpair): cosmetic changes.
 682         (scm_getsockopt, scm_setsockopt): declare optlen as int, not
 683         size_t as socklen_t substitute.  don't restrict args/return values
 684         to INUM: allow full range of int or size_t.
 685         (scm_fill_sockaddr): check arguments before allocating memory, to
 686         avoid leakage.  use malloc, not scm_must_malloc.
 687         (scm_connect, scm_bind, scm_sendto): use int, not size_t as socklen_t
 688         substitute.  free the sockaddr structure before throwing an error.
 689         (scm_init_add_buffer): procedure removed, together with its static
 690         buffer scm_addr_buffer, which wouldn't be thread safe.  instead,
 691         define a macro MAX_ADDR_SIZE and declare the buffer where needed.
 692         (scm_accept, scm_getpeername, scm_getsockname, scm_recvfrom,
 693         scm_sendto): use a local buffer instead of scm_addr_buffer.
 694         adjust for new SCM_SOCK_FD_TO_PORT.  use int for address size,
 695         not size_t.
 696         (scm_recvfrom): set addr->sa_family to AF_UNSPEC before the recvfrom
 697         call to detect whether recvfrom could be bothered to set the address.
 698         (scm_init_socket): don't call scm_init_addr_buffer.

 712         (SCM_VALIDATE_NUMBER_COPY):  Don't call function scm_wta, call

 714
 715         * validate.h (SCM_WTA, RETURN_SCM_WTA):  Deprecated.

 750         (scm_m_lambda): Check for duplicate arguments.
 751         (scm_ceval, scm_deval): When executing a body: only cons a new
 752         toplevel environment frame when it is different from the
 753         existing one; use EVALCAR instead of SIDEVAL so that we can properly
 754         check for empty combinations; use SCM_EVALIM2 for the same reason
 755         in the non-toplevel loop.
 756         (nontoplevel_cdrxnoap, nontoplevel_cdrxbegin, nontoplevel_begin):
 757         New labels with the meaning of their non-"nontoplevel" partners,
 758         but they are used when it is known that the body is not evaluated at
 759         top-level.
 760         (scm_apply, scm_dapply): use SCM_EVALIM2 to get proper error

 787         (scm_symbol_to_string, scm_string_to_symbol): Changed use of @t{}

 790
 791         * strports.c (scm_eval_string): Cleaned up the docstring.

 813 2001-02-28  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
 814
 815         * __scm.h (SCM_ASSERT_TYPE):  Add missing macro parameter.
 816         (Obviously nobody compiles with SCM_RECKLESS defined...)
 817
 818         * validate.h (SCM_ASSERT_RANGE):  Use the argument number.

 828         * numbers.c (scm_two_doubles, scm_sys_expt, scm_sys_atan2,
 829         scm_make_polar): Rename arguments `z1' and `z2' to `x' and `y',
 830         since use of `z' suggests that the arguments may be complex.
 831
 832         * goops.c (scm_make), numbers.c (scm_sys_expt): Fix docstring
 833         typos.

 848         (make_class_from_template): Do not bother to set the current

 851         scm_goops_lookup_closure permanent objects.
 852
 853         * eval.c (scm_ceval, scm_deval): When evaluating expressions on
 854         top level, create a fresh top-level environment for each
 855         expression instead of mutating the exisint frame.  This is
 856         important when that frame is closed over.
 857
 858         * numbers.c (s_scm_logior) [SCM_DIGSTOOBIG]: Also use
 859         SCM_DIGSPERLONG instead of DIGSPERLONG.

 866         (scm_i_eval): Do not invoke scm_copy_tree in argument in SCM_XEVAL
 867         macro.  The argument is expanded more than one time.
 868
 869         * numbers.c (scm_logior) [SCM_DIGSTOOBIG]: Correctly use
 870         SCM_BIGDIG instead of BIGDIG.  Thanks to Steven G. Johnson!

 983
 984         * dump.c (scm_undump): Use SCM_CARLOC/SCM_CDRLOC to obtain the
 985         address of car/cdr.  (Thanks to Dirk Herrmann)
 986         Use scm_sizet to obtain the length of strings.
 987         (Thanks to Matthias Koeppe)

 990
 991         * symbols.c (scm_mem2symbol): Put a empty statement after the
 992         next_symbol label.  This is mandated by ANSI, appearantly.
 993
 994 2001-02-13  Marius Vollmer  <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
 995
 996         * gc_os_dep.c: Do not include <linux/version.h>.  It makes no
 997         sense to compile for a specific kernel version.  Do not include
 998         <asm/signal.h> while defining __KERNEL__.  This hack should no
 999         longer be needed and caused problems.
1000
1001 2001-02-13  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1002
1003         * eval.c (scm_ceval, scm_deval): use `SIDEVAL' instead of
1004         SCM_CEVAL when evaluating subforms of `begin' forms.  SCM_CEVAL

1014         evaluated with respect to the module system.
1015
1016         * modules.h. modules.c (scm_current_module_lookup_closure): New
1017         function.
1018
1019         * eval.h (scm_primitive_eval, scm_primitive_eval_x): New
1020         prototypes.
1021         (scm_i_eval, scm_i_eval_x, scm_eval, scm_eval_x): Changed argument
1022         names to better reflect their meaning.
1023
1024         * eval.c (scm_ceval, scm_deval): Recognize when `begin' is being
1025         evaluated at top-level and synronize lookup closure before
1026         executing every subform.
1027         (scm_primitve_eval_x, scm_primitive_eval): New functions.
1028         (scm_eval_x, scm_eval): Reimplement in terms of

1030
1031 2001-02-09  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1032
1033         * macros.c (scm_macro_name, scm_macro_transformer): Use
1034         SCM_SMOB_DATA instead of SCM_CDR.  Provided by Martin Grabmueller.
1035         Thanks!
1036
1037 2001-02-10  Keisuke Nishida  <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1038
1039         * dump.c (scm_store_bytes): Store data size before data.
1040         (scm_restore_bytes): Restore data size.  Takes a pointer to size.
1041         * dump.h (scm_restore_bytes): Updated.
1042
1043 2001-02-09  Keisuke Nishida  <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1044

1051 2001-02-08  Marius Vollmer  <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
1052
1053         * modules.h (scm_selected_module, scm_current_module): Renamed
1054         scm_selected_module to scm_current_module to synchronize Scheme
1055         and C names.
1056         (scm_select_module, scm_set_current_module): Likewise.  Changed
1057         all uses.
1058
1059         * ports.c (scm_port_for_each): Make a snapshot of the port table
1060         before iterating over it.  The table might change while the user
1061         code is running.  With the snapshot, the user can depend on the
1062         fact that each port that existed at the start of the iteration is
1063         encountered exactly once.  (ice-9 popen) depends on this.
1064
1065 2001-02-08  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

1074         deferring unnecessary.
1075
1076         * vectors.c (scm_make_vector):  Fixed range checking.
1077
1078 2001-02-08  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1079

1081
1082         * vectors.c (scm_make_vector, scm_c_make_vector):  Improved the
1083         checking of the size parameter for type correctness and valid
1084         range.  Thanks to Rob Browning for reporting the problem.  Instead
1085         of deferring interrupts, scm_remember_upto_here_1 is used.

1246         here.
1247
1248         * posix.c (scm_ttyname):  Use SCM_FPORTP instead of comparing
1249         against scm_tc16_fport directly.
1250
1251 2001-01-25  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1252
1253         * srcprop.c (scm_set_source_property_x):  Fix to handle

1269         This patch was sent by Martin Grabmueller and makes sure that
1270         parameter errors are reported correctly by the lexicographic
1271         ordering predicates.
1272
1273         * strorder.c (string_less_p, string_ci_less_p):  New functions.
1274
1275         (scm_string_less_p, scm_string_ci_less_p):  Extracted the core
1276         functionality into string_less_p, string_ci_less_p respectively.
1277         The remaining code is just a wrapper to do the parameter
1278         checking.
1279
1280         (scm_string_leq_p, scm_string_gr_p, scm_string_geq_p):  Check the

1293
1294         * backtrace.c (scm_display_error):  Added parameter check and
1295         extracted the core functionality into function
1296         scm_i_display_error.
1297
1298         * throw.c (handler_message):  Call scm_i_display_error to display
1299         the error message.
1300

1314
1315         (scm_readdir, scm_rewinddir):  Don't use SCM_VALIDATE_OPDIR.
1316         Instead, give an explicit error message in case the directory is
1317         closed.
1318
1319         (scm_closedir, scm_dir_print):  Rewritten to use SCM_DIR_OPEN_P
1320         instead of SCM_OPENP and SCM_CLOSEDP.
1321
1322         * validate.h (SCM_VALIDATE_OPDIR):  Deprecated.
1323
1324 2001-01-22  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

1366

1389         from Matthias Köppe:
1390
1391         * objects.h (SCM_SET_ENTITY_SETTER): new macro.  SCM_ENTITY_SETTER
1392         casts its result, so doesn't yield an lvalue per ANSI C.

1395         SCM_SET_ENTITY_SETTER.

1397
1398         * gc.h (SCM_GC_SET_CARD_BVEC): new macro.  SCM_GC_CARD_BVEC casts
1399         its result, so doesn't yield an lvalue per ANSI C.
1400         (SCM_GC_SET_CARD_FLAGS): ditto for SCM_GC_GET_CARD_FLAGS.
1401         (SCM_GC_CLR_CARD_FLAGS): redefined in terms of
1402         SCM_GC_SET_CARD_FLAGS.
1403         (SCM_GC_SET_CARD_FLAG, SCM_GC_CLR_CARD_FLAGS): ditto.
1404
1405         * gc.c (INIT_CARD): use the explicit setter macro to set the bvec.
1406
1407 2001-01-08  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
1408
1409         * validate.h (SCM_VALIDATE_SUBSTRING_SPEC_COPY): new macro.

1412         changes.
1413         * ioext.c (scm_read_string_x_partial): don't crash if -1 is supplied
1414         for fdes.  if current input port is used, check that it's a file
1415         port.
1416
1417 2001-01-06  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
1418
1419         * ioext.c (scm_read_string_x_partial): new procedure, implements
1420         read-string!/partial.
1421         * ports.c (scm_take_from_input_buffers): new procedure used by
1422         scm_read_string_x_partial.
1423         (scm_drain_input): use scm_take_from_input_buffers.
1424

1429 2001-01-03  Michael Livshin  <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1430
1431         * guardians.c (F_GREEDY, F_LISTED, F_DESTROYED, GREEDY_P,

1436         (guardian_print): print more info.
1437         (guardian_apply): check if the guardian is destroyed, and throw an
1438         error if so.  take one more optional argument `throw_p'.
1439         (scm_guard): depending on the value of `throw_p', return a boolean
1440         result.

1445         (scm_destroy_guardian_x): new procedure.
1446
1447         * guardians.h: added prototypes for `scm_guardian_greedy_p' and
1448         `scm_guardian_destroyed_p'.  changed prototype for `scm_guard'.
1449
1450 2001-01-01  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
1451
1452         * fports.c (fport_write): bugfix: handle short writes for
1453         unbuffered ports too.  optimize the buffered case by minimizing
