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

 117
 118 2001-04-01  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
 119
 120         * gc.c (MARK):  Re-introduce a cheap sanity test for non debug
 121         mode, as suggested by Michael Livshin.
 122
 123 2001-03-31  Michael Livshin  <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
 124
 125         * backtrace.c (display_backtrace_body): since the `print_state'
 126         variable is not used (instead its data field is used directly as
 127         `pstate'), protect it from the hungry compiler optimizations.
 128         thanks to Bill Schottstaedt for the report.
 129
 130 2001-03-30  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
 131
 132         * gc.[ch] (scm_tc16_allocated):  New type tag for allocated cells.
 133         It is only defined and used if guile is compiled with
 134         SCM_DEBUG_CELL_ACCESSES set to true.  It's purpose is, to never
 135         let cells with a free_cell type tag be visible outside of the
 136         garbage collector when in debug mode.
 137
 138         * gc.c (scm_debug_cell_accesses_p):  Set to true as default.
 139
 140         (scm_assert_cell_valid):  Use a local static variable to avoid
 141         recursion.
 142
 143         (MARK):  Only check for rogue cell pointers in debug mode.  Use
 144         scm_cellp for this purpose and place all checks for rogue pointers
 145         into that function.  Further, since due to conservative scanning
 146         we may encounter free cells during marking, don't use the standard
 147         cell type accessor macro to determine the cell type.
 148
 149         (scm_cellp):  Check if the cell pointer actually points into a
 150         card header.
 151
 152         (scm_init_gc):  Initalize scm_tc16_allocated.
 153
 154         * gc.h (GCH):  Renamed to SCM_GC_H.
 155
 156         (SCM_VALIDATE_CELL):  Enclose the expression in brackets.  This
 157         might be unnecessary, but I feel better this way :-)
 158
 159         (SCM_GC_CELL_TYPE):  New macro.
 160
 161         (SCM_SETAND_CDR, SCM_SETOR_CDR):  Deprecated.  These are not used
 162         in guile, and it is unlikely that they will be applied to real
 163         pairs anyway.
 164
 165         (SCM_SET_FREE_CELL_TYPE):  Removed.  It was not used.
 166
 167         (SCM_GC_SET_ALLOCATED):  New macro.  Only non-empty if guile is
 168         compiled with SCM_DEBUG_CELL_ACCESSES set to true.
 169
 170         (SCM_NEWCELL, SCM_NEWCELL2):  Use of SCM_GC_SET_ALLOCATED will
 171         make sure that in debug mode no free cell will ever be visible
 172         outside of the garbage collector.
 173
 174 2001-03-30  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
 175
 176         * async.c (scm_asyncs_pending):  Don't use != to compare SCM
 177         values.
 178
 179         * async.c (scm_system_async), variable.c (scm_make_variable,
 180         scm_make_undefined_variable):  Use scm_cons to create a pair.
 181
 182         * debug.c (scm_reverse_lookup):  Perform proper type checking.
 183         Remove suspicious use of SCM_SLOPPY_CONSP.
 184
 185         * eq.c (scm_equal_p), tags.h (SCM_ECONSP):  Use SCM_CONSP instead
 186         of SCM_SLOPPY_CONSP.  A sane compiler should be able to perform
 187         the corresponding optimization.
 188
 189         * eval.c (iqq):  Use proper type check.
 190
 191         (scm_m_expand_body):  Remove redundant type checks.
 192
 193         (promise_print):  Don't access promise cells as pairs.
 194
 195         * eval.c (EVALCAR, iqq, scm_m_expand_body, scm_eval_args,
 196         scm_deval_args SCM_CEVAL), guardians.c (scm_guard), hashtab.c
 197         (scm_internal_hash_fold), print.c (scm_iprlist):  Use !SCM_CELLP
 198         for SCM_NCELLP, !SCM_CONSP for SCM_NCONSP, !SCM_IMP for SCM_NIMP,
 199         !SCM_FALSEP for SCM_NFALSEP, !SCM_NULLP for SCM_NNULLP
 200
 201         * eval.c (scm_m_define, scm_macroexp, SCM_CEVAL), print.c
 202         (scm_iprin1):  Use new macro predicate and accessors.
 203
 204         * eval.h (scm_tc16_macro):  Removed declaration.  It is declared
 205         in macros.h.
 206
 207         * eval.h (EVALH), macros.h (MACROSH), ports.h (PORTSH), procs.h
 208         (PROCSH), tags.h (TAGSH), variable.h (VARIABLEH):  Renamed to
 209         SCM_EVAL_H, SCM_MACROS_H, SCM_PORTS_H, SCM_PROCS_H, SCM_TAGS_H and
 210         SCM_VARIABLE_H.  Even the macros that are used to inhibit
 211         including a header file twice should be in the SCM_ namespace.
 212
 213         * fluids.c (scm_swap_fluids, scm_swap_fluids_reverse),
 214         properties.c (scm_primitive_property_ref,
 215         scm_primitive_property_del_x):  Prefer stronger predicates like
 216         SCM_NULLP or SCM_FALSEP over SCM_IMP.
 217
 218         * gc.c (MARK):  Use proper macros to access procedure-with-setter
 219         cell elements and closure cell elements.
 220
 221         (gc_sweep_freelist_finish, scm_gc_sweep, init_heap_seg):  Don't
 222         access free cells as pairs.
 223
 224         (scm_unprotect_object):  scm_hashq_get_handle returns #f if
 225         no hashtab entry is found.
 226
 227         * gc.c (scm_gc_sweep), ports.c (scm_close_port):  Use new macro
 228         SCM_CLR_PORT_OPEN_FLAG.
 229
 230         * guardians.c (TCONC_IN), print.c (scm_free_print_state):  Don't
 231         use SCM_SET_C[AD]R for uninitialized cells.
 232
 233         * hashtab.c (scm_hash_fn_get_handle):  Use SCM_VALIDATE_VECTOR.
 234         If the hashtable has no slots, return #f instead of '().  This
 235         unifies the return value with most assoc-functions.
 236
 237         (scm_hash_fn_ref):  Use proper type check.
 238
 239         (scm_hashq_get_handle, scm_hashv_get_handle, scm_hash_get_handle):
 240         Removed references to non-existing functions from documentation.
 241
 242         * keywords.c (scm_keyword_dash_symbol):  Use proper macros to
 243         access keyword cell elements.
 244
 245         * macros.h (SCM_MACROP, SCM_MACRO_TYPE, SCM_MACRO_CODE):  New
 246         macros.
 247
 248         * ports.h (SCM_CLR_PORT_OPEN_FLAG):  New macro.
 249
 250         * print.c (scm_iprlist):  Added comment.  Improved loop
 251         conditions.
 252
 253         * procs.h (SCM_ENV, SCM_SETENV):  Don't access closure cells as
 254         pairs.
 255
 256         * smob.c (scm_markcdr):  Don't access smob cells as pairs.
 257
 258         * tags.h (SCM_SLOPPY_CONSP, SCM_SLOPPY_NCONSP):  Deprecated.
 259
 260         * throw.c (ACTIVATEJB, DEACTIVATEJB):  Don't access jump buffer
 261         cells as pairs.
 262
 263         * variable.c (variable_print, variable_equalp, scm_variable_ref,
 264         scm_variable_set_x):  Use proper macros to access variable cell
 265         elements.
 266
 267         (scm_variable_bound_p):  Don't use SCM_NEGATE_BOOL.
 268
 269         * variable.h (SCM_VARVCELL):  Don't access variable cells as
 270         pairs.
 271
 272         * vectors.c (scm_vector), weaks.c (scm_weak_vector):  Simplified,
 273         added FIXME comment, removed register specifier.
 274
 275 2001-03-29  Keisuke Nishida  <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
 276
 277         * goops.c, goops.h (scm_init_oop_goops_goopscore_module): Deprecated.
 278         * init.c (scm_init_guile_1): Don't init goopscore module.
 279
 280 2001-03-27  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
 281
 282         * eval.c (SCM_APPLY): Check that arg1 is bound for scm_tc7_cxr.
 283
 284 2001-03-27  Martin Grabmueller  <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>
 285
 286         * strop.c (scm_string_to_list): Fixed docstring markup.
 287         (scm_string_upcase_x, scm_string_upcase, scm_string_downcase_x),
 288         (scm_string_downcase, scm_string_capitalize_x),
 289         (scm_string_capitalize): Rewrote and corrected docstrings.
 290         (scm_string_ci_to_symbol): Made docstring more explicit.
 291

 293
 294         * values.h (scm_values_vtable, SCM_VALUESP): Moved here so that
 295         eval.c can use it.
 296         (scm_call_with_values): Removed.
 297         * values.c (values_vtable, scm_values_vtable): Added "scm_" prefix
 298         so that it can be exported.
 299         (scm_call_with_values): Removed.
 300
 301         * tags.h (SCM_IM_CALL_WITH_VALUES): New isym.
 302         * eval.c: Include "libguile/values.h"

 638         * guile-snarf.awk.in: Neglect spaces at the end of
 639         SCM_SNARF_DOCSTRING_END.  Skip lines "# NN ..." in the
 640         middle of docstrings.  (To avoid the problem with gcc-2.96.)
 641

 643
 644         * coop-threads.c (scm_call_with_new_thread), load.c

 646         (scm_c_default_rstate), struct.c (scm_make_struct_layout,
 647         scm_struct_ref, scm_struct_set_x):  Don't use SCM_ASSERT to
 648         (potentially) issue a scm-misc-error or wrong-num-args error
 649         message.
 650
 651         * load.c (scm_search_path):  Use SCM_ASSERT_TYPE to give details
 652         about the expected type with the wrong-type-arg error message.
 653
 654         * smob.c (scm_make_smob):  Abort on misuse of smob - it indicates
 655         a C level bug that can't be fixed from scheme anyway.
 656
 657 2001-03-05  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
 658
 659         * eval.c (scm_m_letstar): Removed check for duplicate bindings.
 660         Duplicate bindings are OK in a let* since a let* is semantically
 661         equivalent to a nested set of let:s.
 662

 672
 673         * socket.c (scm_fill_sockaddr): don't allow buffer overflows when
 674         taking an unexpectedly large filename for an AF_UNIX socket from

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

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

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

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

 788

 812
 813         * __scm.h (SCM_ASSERT_TYPE):  Add missing macro parameter.
 814         (Obviously nobody compiles with SCM_RECKLESS defined...)

 816         * validate.h (SCM_ASSERT_RANGE):  Use the argument number.

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

 849         scm_goops_lookup_closure permanent objects.
 850
 851         * eval.c (scm_ceval, scm_deval): When evaluating expressions on
 852         top level, create a fresh top-level environment for each
 853         expression instead of mutating the exisint frame.  This is
 854         important when that frame is closed over.
 855
 856         * numbers.c (s_scm_logior) [SCM_DIGSTOOBIG]: Also use
 857         SCM_DIGSPERLONG instead of DIGSPERLONG.

 864         (scm_i_eval): Do not invoke scm_copy_tree in argument in SCM_XEVAL
 865         macro.  The argument is expanded more than one time.
 866
 867         * numbers.c (scm_logior) [SCM_DIGSTOOBIG]: Correctly use

 981
 982         * dump.c (scm_undump): Use SCM_CARLOC/SCM_CDRLOC to obtain the
 983         address of car/cdr.  (Thanks to Dirk Herrmann)
 984         Use scm_sizet to obtain the length of strings.
 985         (Thanks to Matthias Koeppe)
 986
 987 2001-02-15  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
 988
 989         * symbols.c (scm_mem2symbol): Put a empty statement after the
 990         next_symbol label.  This is mandated by ANSI, appearantly.
 991
 992 2001-02-13  Marius Vollmer  <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
 993
 994         * gc_os_dep.c: Do not include <linux/version.h>.  It makes no
 995         sense to compile for a specific kernel version.  Do not include
 996         <asm/signal.h> while defining __KERNEL__.  This hack should no
 997         longer be needed and caused problems.
 998
 999 2001-02-13  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1000
1001         * eval.c (scm_ceval, scm_deval): use `SIDEVAL' instead of
1002         SCM_CEVAL when evaluating subforms of `begin' forms.  SCM_CEVAL
1003         can not deal with immediates.
1004
1005 2001-02-12  Keisuke Nishida  <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1006
1007         * list.c (scm_list_copy): Validate the first argument.

1012         evaluated with respect to the module system.
1013
1014         * modules.h. modules.c (scm_current_module_lookup_closure): New
1015         function.
1016
1017         * eval.h (scm_primitive_eval, scm_primitive_eval_x): New
1018         prototypes.
1019         (scm_i_eval, scm_i_eval_x, scm_eval, scm_eval_x): Changed argument
1020         names to better reflect their meaning.
1021
1022         * eval.c (scm_ceval, scm_deval): Recognize when `begin' is being
1023         evaluated at top-level and synronize lookup closure before
1024         executing every subform.
1025         (scm_primitve_eval_x, scm_primitive_eval): New functions.
1026         (scm_eval_x, scm_eval): Reimplement in terms of
1027         scm_primitive_eval_x and scm_primitive_eval, respectively.
1028
1029 2001-02-09  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1030
1031         * macros.c (scm_macro_name, scm_macro_transformer): Use
1032         SCM_SMOB_DATA instead of SCM_CDR.  Provided by Martin Grabmueller.
1033         Thanks!
1034
1035 2001-02-10  Keisuke Nishida  <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1036
1037         * dump.c (scm_store_bytes): Store data size before data.
1038         (scm_restore_bytes): Restore data size.  Takes a pointer to size.
1039         * dump.h (scm_restore_bytes): Updated.
1040
1041 2001-02-09  Keisuke Nishida  <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
1042
1043         * dump.c: Use double cells for update schedule.

1048
1049 2001-02-08  Marius Vollmer  <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
1050
1051         * modules.h (scm_selected_module, scm_current_module): Renamed
1052         scm_selected_module to scm_current_module to synchronize Scheme
1053         and C names.
1054         (scm_select_module, scm_set_current_module): Likewise.  Changed
1055         all uses.
1056
1057         * ports.c (scm_port_for_each): Make a snapshot of the port table
1058         before iterating over it.  The table might change while the user
1059         code is running.  With the snapshot, the user can depend on the
1060         fact that each port that existed at the start of the iteration is
1061         encountered exactly once.  (ice-9 popen) depends on this.
1062
1063 2001-02-08  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

1072         deferring unnecessary.
1073
1074         * vectors.c (scm_make_vector):  Fixed range checking.
1075
1076 2001-02-08  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
1077
1078         * vectors.h (SCM_VECTOR_MAX_LENGTH):  New macro.
1079
1080         * vectors.c (scm_make_vector, scm_c_make_vector):  Improved the
1081         checking of the size parameter for type correctness and valid
1082         range.  Thanks to Rob Browning for reporting the problem.  Instead
1083         of deferring interrupts, scm_remember_upto_here_1 is used.

1267         This patch was sent by Martin Grabmueller and makes sure that
1268         parameter errors are reported correctly by the lexicographic
1269         ordering predicates.
1270

1272
1273         (scm_string_less_p, scm_string_ci_less_p):  Extracted the core
1274         functionality into string_less_p, string_ci_less_p respectively.
1275         The remaining code is just a wrapper to do the parameter
1276         checking.
1277
1278         (scm_string_leq_p, scm_string_gr_p, scm_string_geq_p):  Check the

1291
1292         * backtrace.c (scm_display_error):  Added parameter check and
1293         extracted the core functionality into function
1294         scm_i_display_error.
1295
1296         * throw.c (handler_message):  Call scm_i_display_error to display
1297         the error message.
1298
1299 2001-01-23  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
1300

1311         SCM_OPN.
1312
1313         (scm_readdir, scm_rewinddir):  Don't use SCM_VALIDATE_OPDIR.
1314         Instead, give an explicit error message in case the directory is
1315         closed.
1316
1317         (scm_closedir, scm_dir_print):  Rewritten to use SCM_DIR_OPEN_P
1318         instead of SCM_OPENP and SCM_CLOSEDP.
1319
1320         * validate.h (SCM_VALIDATE_OPDIR):  Deprecated.
1321
1322 2001-01-22  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

1364

1386
1387         from Matthias Köppe:
1388
1389         * objects.h (SCM_SET_ENTITY_SETTER): new macro.  SCM_ENTITY_SETTER
1390         casts its result, so doesn't yield an lvalue per ANSI C.

1393         SCM_SET_ENTITY_SETTER.

1395
1396         * gc.h (SCM_GC_SET_CARD_BVEC): new macro.  SCM_GC_CARD_BVEC casts
1397         its result, so doesn't yield an lvalue per ANSI C.
1398         (SCM_GC_SET_CARD_FLAGS): ditto for SCM_GC_GET_CARD_FLAGS.
1399         (SCM_GC_CLR_CARD_FLAGS): redefined in terms of
1400         SCM_GC_SET_CARD_FLAGS.
1401         (SCM_GC_SET_CARD_FLAG, SCM_GC_CLR_CARD_FLAGS): ditto.
1402
1403         * gc.c (INIT_CARD): use the explicit setter macro to set the bvec.
1404
1405 2001-01-08  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
1406
1407         * validate.h (SCM_VALIDATE_SUBSTRING_SPEC_COPY): new macro.

1410         changes.
1411         * ioext.c (scm_read_string_x_partial): don't crash if -1 is supplied
1412         for fdes.  if current input port is used, check that it's a file
1413         port.
1414
1415 2001-01-06  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
1416
1417         * ioext.c (scm_read_string_x_partial): new procedure, implements
1418         read-string!/partial.
1419         * ports.c (scm_take_from_input_buffers): new procedure used by
1420         scm_read_string_x_partial.
1421         (scm_drain_input): use scm_take_from_input_buffers.
1422

1425         * validate.h (SCM_VALIDATE_NUMBER): New.
1426
1427 2001-01-03  Michael Livshin  <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1428
1429         * guardians.c (F_GREEDY, F_LISTED, F_DESTROYED, GREEDY_P,

1434         (guardian_print): print more info.
1435         (guardian_apply): check if the guardian is destroyed, and throw an
1436         error if so.  take one more optional argument `throw_p'.
1437         (scm_guard): depending on the value of `throw_p', return a boolean
1438         result.

1443         (scm_destroy_guardian_x): new procedure.
1444
1445         * guardians.h: added prototypes for `scm_guardian_greedy_p' and
1446         `scm_guardian_destroyed_p'.  changed prototype for `scm_guard'.
1447
1448 2001-01-01  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
1449
1450         * fports.c (fport_write): bugfix: handle short writes for
1451         unbuffered ports too.  optimize the buffered case by minimizing
