 124
 125         * gh.h/gh_data.c (gh_ints2scm):  Changed the signature to use a

 134         (gh_scm2newstr, gh_symbol2newstr): Change call to
 135         scm_must_malloc() to malloc(), because user-free()able memory is
 136         allocated.
 137
 138         * gc.c: Added declaration of `scm_debug_check_freelist'.
 139

 155         scm_m_atdispatch):  Provide definitions for FUNC_NAME.  Don't use
 156         SCM_ASSYNT to check for correct argument types.  Either use some
 157         SCM_VALIDATE_* macro or an explicit test.
 158
 159         (scm_make_foreign_object):  Don't use SCM_ASSERT to check for
 160         misc-errors.
 161

 258         to fail if the two arrays shared storage.  Re-inserted the IVDEP
 259         macros removed in the change of 2000-03-09.  (Don't really have a
 260         complete grasp of what they are for, but they seem to be necessary
 261         on Crays.  This needs testing!)  Thanks to Miroslav Silovic.
 262
 263         * hash.c (scm_string_hash): Don't downcase characters.
 264
 265 2001-03-07  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>

 276
 277 2001-03-07  Keisuke Nishida  <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
 278
 279         * Makefile.am (*.x): Add dependency on snarf.h and guile-doc-snarf.in.

 283         SCM_SNARF_DOCSTRING_END.  Skip lines "# NN ..." in the
 284         middle of docstrings.  (To avoid the problem with gcc-2.96.)
 285
 286 2001-03-06  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
 287
 288         * coop-threads.c (scm_call_with_new_thread), load.c

 295         * load.c (scm_search_path):  Use SCM_ASSERT_TYPE to give details
 296         about the expected type with the wrong-type-arg error message.
 297
 298         * smob.c (scm_make_smob):  Abort on misuse of smob - it indicates
 299         a C level bug that can't be fixed from scheme anyway.
 300
 301 2001-03-05  Mikael Djurfeldt  <mdj@linnaeus.mit.edu>
 302
 303         * eval.c (scm_m_letstar): Removed check for duplicate bindings.
 304         Duplicate bindings are OK in a let* since a let* is semantically
 305         equivalent to a nested set of let:s.
 306
 307 2001-03-05  Martin Grabmueller  <mgrabmue@cs.tu-berlin.de>

 313         return NULL instead of signalling an error.
 314
 315 2001-03-04  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
 316
 317         * socket.c (scm_fill_sockaddr): don't allow buffer overflows when
 318         taking an unexpectedly large filename for an AF_UNIX socket from
 319         bind/connect/sendto (thanks to Martin Grabmueller).
 320
 321         * socket.c (scm_sock_fd_to_port, SCM_SOCK_FD_TO_PORT): removed the
 322         former and adjusted the latter.
 323         (scm_socket, scm_socketpair): cosmetic changes.
 324         (scm_getsockopt, scm_setsockopt): declare optlen as int, not
 325         size_t as socklen_t substitute.  don't restrict args/return values
 326         to INUM: allow full range of int or size_t.
 327         (scm_fill_sockaddr): check arguments before allocating memory, to
 328         avoid leakage.  use malloc, not scm_must_malloc.
 329         (scm_connect, scm_bind, scm_sendto): use int, not size_t as socklen_t
 330         substitute.  free the sockaddr structure before throwing an error.
 331         (scm_init_add_buffer): procedure removed, together with its static
 332         buffer scm_addr_buffer, which wouldn't be thread safe.  instead,
 333         define a macro MAX_ADDR_SIZE and declare the buffer where needed.
 334         (scm_accept, scm_getpeername, scm_getsockname, scm_recvfrom,
 335         scm_sendto): use a local buffer instead of scm_addr_buffer.
 336         adjust for new SCM_SOCK_FD_TO_PORT.  use int for address size,
 337         not size_t.
 338         (scm_recvfrom): set addr->sa_family to AF_UNSPEC before the recvfrom
 339         call to detect whether recvfrom could be bothered to set the address.
 340         (scm_init_socket): don't call scm_init_addr_buffer.

 496         top level, create a fresh top-level environment for each
 497         expression instead of mutating the exisint frame.  This is
 498         important when that frame is closed over.
 499

 508         (scm_i_eval): Do not invoke scm_copy_tree in argument in SCM_XEVAL
 509         macro.  The argument is expanded more than one time.
 510
 511         * numbers.c (scm_logior) [SCM_DIGSTOOBIG]: Correctly use

 631 2001-02-15  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
 632
 633         * symbols.c (scm_mem2symbol): Put a empty statement after the
 634         next_symbol label.  This is mandated by ANSI, appearantly.
 635
 636 2001-02-13  Marius Vollmer  <marius.vollmer@uni-dortmund.de>
 637
 638         * gc_os_dep.c: Do not include <linux/version.h>.  It makes no
 639         sense to compile for a specific kernel version.  Do not include
 640         <asm/signal.h> while defining __KERNEL__.  This hack should no
 641         longer be needed and caused problems.
 642
 643 2001-02-13  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
 644
 645         * eval.c (scm_ceval, scm_deval): use `SIDEVAL' instead of

 656         evaluated with respect to the module system.
 657
 658         * modules.h. modules.c (scm_current_module_lookup_closure): New
 659         function.
 660
 661         * eval.h (scm_primitive_eval, scm_primitive_eval_x): New
 662         prototypes.
 663         (scm_i_eval, scm_i_eval_x, scm_eval, scm_eval_x): Changed argument
 664         names to better reflect their meaning.
 665
 666         * eval.c (scm_ceval, scm_deval): Recognize when `begin' is being
 667         evaluated at top-level and synronize lookup closure before
 668         executing every subform.
 669         (scm_primitve_eval_x, scm_primitive_eval): New functions.
 670         (scm_eval_x, scm_eval): Reimplement in terms of

 674
 675         * macros.c (scm_macro_name, scm_macro_transformer): Use
 676         SCM_SMOB_DATA instead of SCM_CDR.  Provided by Martin Grabmueller.
 677         Thanks!
 678
 679 2001-02-10  Keisuke Nishida  <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
 680
 681         * dump.c (scm_store_bytes): Store data size before data.
 682         (scm_restore_bytes): Restore data size.  Takes a pointer to size.
 683         * dump.h (scm_restore_bytes): Updated.
 684
 685 2001-02-09  Keisuke Nishida  <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
 686
 687         * dump.c: Use double cells for update schedule.

 696         scm_selected_module to scm_current_module to synchronize Scheme
 697         and C names.
 698         (scm_select_module, scm_set_current_module): Likewise.  Changed
 699         all uses.
 700
 701         * ports.c (scm_port_for_each): Make a snapshot of the port table
 702         before iterating over it.  The table might change while the user
 703         code is running.  With the snapshot, the user can depend on the
 704         fact that each port that existed at the start of the iteration is
 705         encountered exactly once.  (ice-9 popen) depends on this.
 706
 707 2001-02-08  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
 708
 709         * strings.h (SCM_STRING_MAX_LENGTH):  New macro.

 716         deferring unnecessary.
 717
 718         * vectors.c (scm_make_vector):  Fixed range checking.
 719
 720 2001-02-08  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

 723
 724         * vectors.c (scm_make_vector, scm_c_make_vector):  Improved the
 725         checking of the size parameter for type correctness and valid
 726         range.  Thanks to Rob Browning for reporting the problem.  Instead
 727         of deferring interrupts, scm_remember_upto_here_1 is used.
 728
 729 2001-02-05  Keisuke Nishida  <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>
 730

 955         SCM_OPN.
 956
 957         (scm_readdir, scm_rewinddir):  Don't use SCM_VALIDATE_OPDIR.
 958         Instead, give an explicit error message in case the directory is
 959         closed.
 960
 961         (scm_closedir, scm_dir_print):  Rewritten to use SCM_DIR_OPEN_P

 967
 968         * eval.c (inner_eval, scm_eval):  Move all real functionality into
 969         inner_eval.  Avoid to copy the expression twice by inlining some
 970         code from scm_i_eval.

 972 2001-01-19  Dirk Herrmann  <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>
 973
 974         * eval.c (scm_m_case):  The 'else' clause of a 'case' statement
 975         now has to be the last clause, as required by R5RS.  Thanks to
 976         Martin Grabmueller for the patch.

1003
1004         * __scm.h (SCM_FIXNUM_BIT):  Added.  The name is chosen in analogy
1005         to the names in limits.h.

1010         fixnum-min) special case.
1011
1012         (scm_big_and):  Fix for negative first parameter.
1013
1014         (scm_bit_extract):  Fix for fixnum paramters.

1030
1031         from Matthias Köppe:
1032
1033         * objects.h (SCM_SET_ENTITY_SETTER): new macro.  SCM_ENTITY_SETTER
1034         casts its result, so doesn't yield an lvalue per ANSI C.
1035
1036         * goops.c (s_scm_sys_set_object_setter_x): use
1037         SCM_SET_ENTITY_SETTER.
1038         (clear_method_cache): use SCM_SET_ENTITY_PROCEDURE.
1039
1040         * gc.h (SCM_GC_SET_CARD_BVEC): new macro.  SCM_GC_CARD_BVEC casts
1041         its result, so doesn't yield an lvalue per ANSI C.
1042         (SCM_GC_SET_CARD_FLAGS): ditto for SCM_GC_GET_CARD_FLAGS.
1043         (SCM_GC_CLR_CARD_FLAGS): redefined in terms of
1044         SCM_GC_SET_CARD_FLAGS.
1045         (SCM_GC_SET_CARD_FLAG, SCM_GC_CLR_CARD_FLAGS): ditto.
1046
1047         * gc.c (INIT_CARD): use the explicit setter macro to set the bvec.

1049 2001-01-08  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
1050
1051         * validate.h (SCM_VALIDATE_SUBSTRING_SPEC_COPY): new macro.
1052         * ioext.c (scm_read_string_x_partial, scm_read_delimited_x),
1053         socket.c (scm_recvfrom): use the new macro, plus minor docstring
1054         changes.
1055         * ioext.c (scm_read_string_x_partial): don't crash if -1 is supplied
1056         for fdes.  if current input port is used, check that it's a file
1057         port.
1058
1059 2001-01-06  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
1060
1061         * ioext.c (scm_read_string_x_partial): new procedure, implements
1062         read-string!/partial.
1063         * ports.c (scm_take_from_input_buffers): new procedure used by
1064         scm_read_string_x_partial.
1065         (scm_drain_input): use scm_take_from_input_buffers.
1066
1067 2001-01-06  Marius Vollmer  <mvo@zagadka.ping.de>
1068
1069         * validate.h (SCM_VALIDATE_NUMBER): New.
1070
1071 2001-01-03  Michael Livshin  <mlivshin@bigfoot.com>
1072
1073         * guardians.c (F_GREEDY, F_LISTED, F_DESTROYED, GREEDY_P,
1074         SET_GREEDY, LISTED_P, SET_LISTED, CLR_LISTED, DESTROYED_P,
1075         SET_DESTROYED): new defines/macros.
1076         (GUARDIAN_LIVE, GUARDIAN_ZOMBIES, GUARDIAN_NEXT): deleted.
1077         (add_to_live_list): takes a `guardian_t *' now, not SCM.
1078         (guardian_print): print more info.
1079         (guardian_apply): check if the guardian is destroyed, and throw an
1080         error if so.  take one more optional argument `throw_p'.
1081         (scm_guard): depending on the value of `throw_p', return a boolean
1082         result.
1083         (scm_get_one_zombie): remove redundant property test.
1084         (guardian_t): represent the various (currently 3, I hope nothing
1085         more gets added) boolean fields as bit flags.
1086         (scm_guardian_destroyed_p, scm_guardian_greedy_p): new predicates.
1087         (scm_destroy_guardian_x): new procedure.
1088
1089         * guardians.h: added prototypes for `scm_guardian_greedy_p' and
1090         `scm_guardian_destroyed_p'.  changed prototype for `scm_guard'.
1091
1092 2001-01-01  Gary Houston  <ghouston@arglist.com>
1093
1094         * fports.c (fport_write): bugfix: handle short writes for
1095         unbuffered ports too.  optimize the buffered case by minimizing
1096         the number of write/flush calls.
1097         (write_all): new helper procedure.
