30 * debugger.scm ("evaluate"): Replaced `write-line' with calls to
31 `write' and `newline' since write-line doesn't write but displays.

f14d3ff8
MD
59 readline is used by the repl run by this thread.
60 (handle-system-error): Print "Backtrace:" before backtrace since
61 this is no longer done by display-backtrace.
62
63 * debug.scm (frame-number->index): Optionally take stack as
64 argument.
65
66 * debugger.scm: Use the frame number abstraction which allows for
67 both forward and backward views of the stack
68 (write-frame-index-short, write-frame-index-long):
69 Use selector `frame-number';
70 (select-frame-absolute): Use frame-number->index.
71 ("backtrace"): Use builtin backtrace printing.
72 Use (ice-9 debug).
73 Use readline conditionally.

77 * regex.scm (fold-matches, list-matches): New functions.
78 (regexp-substitute/global): Rewritten again in terms of
79 list-matches, to get null match behavior correct.
80
81 * regex.scm (regexp-substitute/global): Rewrite so that 'post at
82 the end of the item list actually causes a tail call. (Thanks to
83 Jan Nieuwenhuizen.)

96
97 Delete the test which compares the configuration date of libguile
98 with the configuration date of ice-9. This test yields too many
99 false positives to be helpful. For example, if you build Guile
100 for several architectures but have them all share a "share"
101 directory (which is supposed to work), then all but one
102 architecture's Guile will complain that the configuration dates
103 don't match. Which is true, but indicates nothing wrong.
104 * boot-9.scm: Delete code which compares ice-9-config-stamp with
105 libguile-config-stamp.
106 * version.scm.in: Delete.
107 * Makefile.am (ice9_generated): Delete.
108 (subpkgdata_DATA): Remove ice9_generated.
109 (EXTRA_DIST): Remove version.scm.in.
110 * Makefile.in: Regenerate.

113
0fdcbcaa 114 * debugger.scm: New file: Initial version of the Guile debugger
d61d2039
MD
115 written by Chris Hanson. (The debugger isn't finished, but is
116 included in Guile anyway since it is already quite useful.)
117
0fdcbcaa 118 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Use (ice-9 debug) (ice-9 debugger) (ice-9
d61d2039
MD
119 session) (ice-9 threads) (ice-9 regex) from guile-user only if
120 top-repl is called. This makes startup time for scripts 30% of
121 what it was before... Removed redundant code for loading of
122 readline.
123
124 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Added debugger.scm.
125

MD
1261999-08-29 Keisuke Nishida <kxn30@po.cwru.edu>

JB
1351999-08-20 James Blandy <jimb@mule.m17n.org>
136
137 Remove support for the #/ path list syntax entirely.
138 * boot-9.scm (read-path-list-notation,
139 read-path-list-notation-warning): Deleted.
140 Don't register read-path-list-notation-warning as a reader for
141 objects starting with '#/'.

144
145 GOOPS needs the observer protocol specified for the new module
146 system. Here's a simple version for the old module system:
147 * boot-9.scm (module-observers, module-weak-observers,
148 module-observer-id, set-module-observers!,
149 set-module-observer-id!): New accessors.
150 (module-type): Added slots `observers', `weak-observers' and
151 `observer-id'.
152 (module-observe, module-observe-weak, module-unobserve,
1a961d7e 153 module-modified): New procedures.
eba96884 154 (module-make-local-var!, module-add!, module-remove!,
1a961d7e 155 module-clear!, module-define!, module-use!): Call module-modified.

MD
1711999-06-29 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj-pc.nada.kth.se>
172
173 * readline.scm: Bugfix: Avoid getting the continued-lines prompt
174 at multiple calls to read.
175 (promtp2): Variable for continued-lines prompt.
176 (make-readline-port): Use prompt2.
177 (set-readline-prompt!): New optional arg which sets
178 continued-lines prompt.
179
180 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): Set/clear readline prompts before/after
181 reading expressions.

1831999-06-18 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
184
185 * ls.scm (ls, lls): Handle no arguments as meaning to look in
186 `(current-module)'. (Patch from Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
187
8044bbc8
JB
1881999-06-14 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
189
190 * string-fun.scm (split-before-predicate, split-after-predicate,
191 split-discarding-predicate): Make these public. (Thanks to
192 Thien-Thi Nguyen.)
193
194 1999-06-13 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
195
196 * more changes to expect.scm, to avoid the one-character lookhead
197 that was introduced to fix the $ problem:
198
199 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc an extra time at end
200 of file and set the eof? argument appropriately. call
201 expect-eof-proc only if the last call didn't match.
202 * expect.scm (expect-strings): change port to eof? in match proc.
203 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): take an eof indicator as an argument
204 instead of a port.
205

207
208 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Add popen.scm to list.
209 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
210
8ed3c2fb
JB
211 Fixes for expect from Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>:
212
213 * expect.scm (expect-regexec): define 'eof-next?'. I don't
214 know why it was missing. also don't peek for end of lines
027ffa31 215 unless expect-strings-exec-flags contains regexp/noteol.
8ed3c2fb
JB
216 (expect-strings-exec-flags): initialise to regexp/noteol.
217
aad827f4
JB
218 Gary Houston's open-buffer port patches:
219
220 1999-04-01 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
221
222 * popen.scm: applied fixes from Greg Harvey. use a guardian
223 and a gc-thunk so that cleanup is done if a pipe is garbage
224 collected or closed with close-port. use a weak hash-table instead of
225 an alist.
226
227 1999-03-20 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
228
ad226f25 229 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with the port instead.
aad827f4
JB
230 (expect-strings): use peek-char to get the next char. this has
231 the advantage of getting the handling of $ "correct", but the
232 disadvantage of needing to get (and maybe block for) an extra character
233 from the port when it may not be needed. hence:
ad226f25 234 (expect-strings-exec-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
027ffa31 235 flags for regexp-exec. if this includes regexp/noteol, then
aad827f4
JB
236 automatic regexp/noteol handling (requiring an extra peeked char)
237 is enabled. default is regexp/noteol.
027ffa31
JB
238 (expect-strings-compile-flags): new variable/parameter, supplies
239 flags for make-regexp. default is regexp/newline.
aad827f4
JB
240
241 1999-03-15 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
242
ad226f25 243 * expect.scm (expect): call the match proc with an extra char,
aad827f4
JB
244 peeked from the stream.
245 (expect-strings): build a match proc which takes the extra char.
246 (expect-regexec): take an extra arg "eof-next?" and use it
247 to decide whether the regexp/noteol flag should be added.
248
249 1999-02-26 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
250
251 * boot-9.scm (top-repl): don't flush all ports at exit.
252 (error-catching-loop): likewise.
253
254 1998-12-23 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
255
256 * boot-9.scm (scm-style-repl): -read: don't call
257 consume-trailing-whitespace if val is eof object. Allows
258 exiting repl with single control-D.
259
260 1998-12-06 Gary Houston <ghouston@easynet.co.uk>
261
262 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): don't force output within
263 error catching loop after quit received.
264 (top-repl): flush all ports when the repl terminates.
265
266 * boot-9.scm (error-catching-loop): flush all ports before
267 primitive exit if non-interactive.
268 force-output on current-error-port if interactive.
269
270 * boot-9.scm (reopen-file): deleted.
271 * popen.scm (open-output-pipe, open-input-pipe): moved from
272 boot-9.scm.
273 * popen.scm: new file.

2751999-06-04 Dirk Herrmann <D.Herrmann@tu-bs.de>

283 non-optional-args. (Thanks to David Lutterkort.)

7c1ce4ee
JB
286
287 * string-case.scm: Removed; functions moved to libguile/strop.c
288 (which could be dynamically linked in the future anyway).
e7d37b0a
JB
289 * Makefile.am (ice9_sources): Don't list string-case.scm.
290 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
7c1ce4ee
JB
291 * format.scm: Don't bother importing (ice-9 string-case).
292
027ffa31 2931999-05-02 Jim Blandy <jimb@savonarola.red-bean.com>
b7e13f65
JB
294
295 * boot-9.scm (provided?): New function.
296
297 * Makefile.am: Add string-case.scm and format.scm to ice9_sources.
298 * Makefile.in: Regenerated.
299
300 * string-case.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, and adapted to
301 Guile's module system.
302
303 * format.scm: New file, brought in from SLIB, with the following
304 changes:
305 (format:format): If the first argument is the format string, stick
306 a #f on the front of it, so it is now a valid CL format argument
307 list. This is easier than changing everyplace else (like the
308 error formatter) that expects it to be in CL form. The other
309 clause which explicitly tests for this case is now dead code.
310 (format:format-work): Allow `@' and `:' in either order, as per
311 modern CL behavior.
312 (format:num->cardinal): Don't assume that an elseless if returns
313 '() when the condition is false.

322
b6e17c63
MD
3231999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
324
325 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module, use-syntax): Bugfix:
326 :use-syntax should add syntax to using module, not current module.
327 (internal-use-syntax): Removed.
328
e059c0b7
MD
3291999-03-21 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
330
331 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Modified to comply with new
332 argument order for hash-fold.
333
275b2a7e
MD
3341999-03-19 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
335
027ffa31 336 * boot-9.scm (try-load-module): New procedure. Broken out from
275b2a7e
MD
337 resolve-module.
338 (resolve-module): Bugfix: Make it possible for a module at a
339 deeper level (x y z) to depend on a module on a higher (x y).
33f8ad2b
MD
340
341 This also has the desired side-effect that multiple attempts to
342 load a module (e.g. with `use-modules') work until source is
343 actually found for the module (e.g. because the correct catalog
344 has been added to the load path).
345
275b2a7e
MD
346 Use try-load-module.

3481999-03-18 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>

350 * session.scm (system-module): New procedure. Used to switch a
351 module between system and user state.
352
2251c7a4
MD
3531999-03-16 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
354
355 * session.scm (apropos-internal): Rewritten using hash-fold.
356
357 * emacs.scm, session.scm, slib.scm): Added :no-backtrace in module
358 definition.
359
6ee350ad
MD
3601999-03-14 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
361
362 * boot-9.scm (make-record-type): Use `set-struct-vtable-name!' to
363 associate a name to the record type descriptor so that the object
364 system can create a wrapper class for it.
365
88124126
MD
3661999-03-12 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@mdj.nada.kth.se>
367
368 Improvement of backtraces: Introduces a new stack narrowing
369 specifier, #t, for the inner cut. If the inner cut is specified
370 by #t, `make-stack' will throw away inner stack frames (most
371 recent calls on call chain) up to but excluding the first user
372 stack frame encountered.
373
374 This specifier is now used in `save-stack' so that the call
375 `(save-stack)' will get the new behaviour. [It is recommended that
376 any error reporting functions written by the user have this call
377 on the outermost expression level (i.e. as a member of the lambda
378 list).]
379
380 Modules are partitioned into "user" and "system" modules. [I know
381 that some names used here are silly, but I don't have more time to
382 spend on a better solution, especially considering that the module
383 system will be replaced. But if people have better ideas, then
384 please tell me!]
385
386 System modules are created by adding :no-backtrace among the
387 define-module switches:
388
389 (define-module (foo)
390 :no-backtrace)
391
392 Modules which doesn't have the :no-backtrace specifier are user
393 modules.
394
395 A stack frame is classified as a user frame if it has source code
396 associated with it and if this source code can be proven to come
397 from a user module. If it can be proven to come from a system
398 module it is a system frame.
399
400 Frames which can't be classified, e.g. application frames, are cut
401 away if they occur between system frames, but are left on the
402 stack if they occur between the last system frame and the first
027ffa31 403 user frame encountered. (Note that the first user frame
88124126
MD
404 encountered is the last user code being evaluated!)
405
406 In some cases the system part of the call chain is introduced by
407 frames which should but can't be proven to be system frames. The
408 following workaround has been implemented: The cutting proceeds
409 over application frames where the operator is marked by the
410 `system-procedure' property. (This has been used to cut away
411 generic function dispatch code in the object system.)
412
413 * boot-9.scm (set-system-module!): New procedure: Set system/user
414 status of a module.;
415 Mark `the-root-module' and `the-scm-module' as system modules.
416 (process-define-module): Add new keyword :no-backtrace.
417
418 * boot-9.scm (environment-module): Bugfixed.
419 (set-module-eval-closure!): Add a pointer back from the eval
420 closure to the module.
421
422 * emacs.scm (emacs-load): Reset port filename after transfer.

433
434 Fix from Russ McManus:
435 * getopt-long.scm (parse-option-spec): Store 'optional as the
436 value-required? field for options that take optional values.
437 (process-short-option): Grab a value for the option when it takes
438 either an optional or required value.

501
502 * boot-9.scm (process-define-module): Added new specifier
503 :autoload MODULENAME BINDINGS to the define-module form.
504 The autoload specifier tells the module system to load the module
505 MODULENAME at the first occasion that any variable with its name
506 among BINDINGS is referenced.

MD
5351998-11-23 Mikael Djurfeldt <mdj@barbara.nada.kth.se>
536
537 * boot-9.scm (beautify-user-module!): Beautify also if public
027ffa31 538 interface is set to the module itself. In this way we can use
a56eeb46
MD
539 beautify-user-module! to beautify a module prepared for object
540 code.
541 (process-define-module): Special case: Try to load object code as
542 well if a module does :use-module on itself.
543
544 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Since boot-9.scm is now loaded from
545 invoke_main_func, we can no longer be sure that all modules have
546 been registered when boot-9.scm is loaded.
547 (register-modules): New function: Register and tag modules
548 registered by scm_register_module_xxx since last call to this
549 function. Modules are tagged with the dynamic object passed as
550 argument. (Already linked modules should be tagged with #f.)
551 (init-dynamic-module, link-dynamic-module): Call register-modules
552 first to register linked modules.
553
554 * boot-9.scm (init-dynamic-module): Remove module from
555 registered-modules as soon as possible in case we are recursively
556 invoked; Set public interface before doing the dynamic-call.
557
558 * boot-9.scm (map-in-order): Removed (replaced by scm_serial_map).
559 (abort-hook, before-error-hook, after-error-hook,
560 before-backtrace-hook, after-backtrace-hook, before-read-hook,
561 after-read-hook, exit-hook): Make hooks with `make-hook'.
562
563 * boot-9.scm: Make hooks first class citizens and make them easier
564 to use from C:

566 libguile/feature.c.
7e414627

568 * boot-9.scm: Added warnings about bindings used in

641 (top-repl): Call it, if use-emacs-interface is defined and true.
642 At this point, we *do* know we're about to enter a REPL.
643
644 We can't include Kent Dybvig's syntax-case macro expander in the
027ffa31
JB
645 core Guile distribution, because we don't have copyright
646 assignments for this code. We can certainly distribute them as a
647 separate package, but Guile should be FSF code.

700
701 * boot-9.scm: Make the root module use (ice-9 regex) if
702 available. The dynamic linking facilities in boot-9.scm are
703 currently dependent upon regular expressions. My change of
704 1998-07-14 removed (ice-9 regex) from the use-list of the root
705 module and thereby destroyed dynamic linking.

734 any of the standard I/O functions anyway. (Thanks to Andrew

743 * boot-9.scm (export, export-syntax): New special forms: Export
027ffa31 744 bindings from a module. `(export name1 name2 ...)' can be used at
a0cc0a01
MD
745 the top of a module (after `define-module') to specify which names
746 should be exported. It can be used as an alternative to
747 `define-public'. `export-syntax' works equivalently to `export'
748 but is intended for export of syntactic keywords.

757 * boot-9.scm: Let the user start in module `(guile-repl)' instead
758 of module `(guile)'. Also make sure that `(guile-repl)' uses
759 suitable modules. This change improves Guile stability
760 substantially since bindings will only be copied from the root
761 module: If the user redefines builtins in `(guile-repl)' it won't
762 affect the internal operation of Guile itself.

859 * threads.scm: Added simple error and signal handler.
027ffa31 860 (make-thread, begin-handler): Use this handler. The most
13dc0cae

861 important effect of this is that signals get unmasked.
862 Previously, when a signal was thrown signals remained masked
863 (signals get masked when a signal is taken) which influenced other
864 threads.

f4be1689 881 * boot-9.scm (read-line): Rewritten to call %read-line for
027ffa31 882 improved speed. Minor user-visible changes: the new functions are
848f2a01
TP
883 hardwired to treat the LFD character as signifying end-of-line, so
884 changing `scm-line-incrementors' will no longer affect the
027ffa31 885 behavior of read-line. On platforms which do not represent
848f2a01
TP
886 end-of-line with a LFD character, read-line should behave more
887 like native line-processing facilities, but there is still a ways
888 to go here.

027ffa31
JB
899 the shared library name from that file. If the .la file does not
900 exist, try to link against a .so file. Libtool-generated compiled

916 * boot-9.scm: Revert changes to this file from Oct 23. It turns
917 out to interact badly with the Emacs support and the Tcl/Tk
918 support. It's not a high enough priority at the moment to be
919 worth fixing. I'm leaving the other readline support in, though.

936 repl-reader to use them.
937 If we've got the readline primitives, import the readline module.

985 Suggestion and script from Maciej Stachowiak:
986 * boot-9.scm: Split off modules into separate, autoloadable files.
987 This reduces startup time from 10.5s to 5.5s (user cpu).
988 * calling.scm, common-list.scm, ls.scm, q.scm, runq.scm,
027ffa31 989 string-fun.scm: New files, containing stuff that used to be in
adc14c93

1003 the first attempt (NAME) rather than the second (NAME.scm).
1004
2f110c3c 1005 * boot-9.scm: Bugfix: Hard-solder the print-option procedure into

1049 linked), 2. Try to autoload an .scm-file, 3. Try to dynamically
1050 link a .so-file.

1065 * slib.scm: Added hack which transfers syntactic information from
1066 the builtin variable `define' to the slib version if module (ice-9

1589 * boot-9.scm: Removed the old printer code.

1592 explaining why apply and call/cc need to be closures.

1603 * debug.scm: Add hook for reset of trace level at abort.

1610 it anyway because 1. it is very useful, and, 2. you can start
e6875011

1612 the source! :-)
1613 (trace): Given one or more procedure objects, trace each one.
027ffa31 1614 Given no arguments, show all traced procedures.
e6875011 1615 (untrace): Given one or more procedure objects, untrace each one.
027ffa31
JB
1616 Given no arguments, untrace all traced procedures. The tracing in
1617 Guile have an advantage to most other systems: We don't create new
1618 procedure objects, but mark the procedure objects themselves.
1619 This means that also anonymous and internal procedures can be
1620 traced.
e6875011

1629 result; otherwise display "> ".

027ffa31
JB
1640 recording of source code positions. This was placed there for our
1641 convenience, but it has already sneaked into the distribution
1642 once... so we'd better add this in our local copies instead when
1643 we need it. (These options are normally enabled at the end of

1755 It's an "eval closure", not an "eval thunk." A thunk is a

1758 (make-module, eval-in-module, make-root-module,
1759 set-current-module): Uses changed.

7a818853 1773 * boot-9.scm: The debugging evaluator and recording of positions
7ad737b6
MD
1774 aren't enabled by default any longer (they are switched on in
1775 debug.scm). But during development we want to have them also
1776 *inside* boot-9.scm. Therefore, two lines are added at the
1777 beginning of boot-9.scm to enable these.
1778
1779 Call `provide' so that `records' are included among the
027ffa31 1780 `*features*'.
7ad737b6
MD
1781
1782 The scheme for saving the stack has been adjusted: save-stack is
1783 now commonly available for saving the stack. Calling `save-stack'
1784 sets a flag `stack-saved?' which prevents overwriting the stack.
1785 `stack-saved?' is reset at `abort'.
1786
1787 Spelling correction: seperate --> separate.
1788
1789 Removed `:'s that had creeped into some comments.
1790
7a818853 1791 The repl now doesn't print #<unspecified> results any longer
7ad737b6
MD
1792 If the user wants to see this, he can do
1793 (assert-repl-print-unspecified #t) in his startup file.
1794
7a818853 1795 The user now gets a friendly message instead of a backtrace at
7ad737b6
MD
1796 error.
1797
1798 Added `before-read-hook'.
1799
1800 Load module (ice-9 emacs) if option `-e' was specified.
1801
1802 (provide): New function.
1803
1804 (error): Save stack at entry, so that Guile entrails won't show up
1805 in backtraces.
1806
1807 (backtrace): New function.
1808
7a818853 1809 (save-stack): Can now take arbitrary number of stack narrowing
7ad737b6
MD
1810 specifier pairs. The first specifier in a pair controls inner
1811 border, the second the outer border. A number means cut that
1812 number of frames, a procedure object means cut until that object
1813 is found in operator position in a frame.
1814
1815 * debug.scm: Enable debugging evaluator and recording of positions
1816 by default.
1817
1818 * slib.scm (slib:load): Adapt to the new behavior of
1819 primitive-load: It doesn't any longer try both with and without
1820 ".scm" extension. (We don't want to use %search-load-path here.)
1821
1822 (implementation-vicinity): New function. slib requires it
1823
1824 (library-vicinity): Updated.

1826 Load "require.scm" in the library-vicinity.

1839
1840 Get Guile to be a little less chatty by default. The new user
1841 should see as little clutter as possible.

1855 r4rs.scm. Not all of them are R4RS, but those that are use those
1856 that are not.
1857 (load, %load-verbosely, %load-announce): Moved, along with code to
1858 set %load-hook, to r4rs.scm.
1859
1860 * test.scm: New file.
1861
1862 * boot-9.scm (integer?): Definition deleted, in favor of the one
1863 present in libguile (which used to be called int?). I have no
1864 idea why integer? didn't just call int? to begin with.
1865
1866 * boot-9.scm (<, <=, =, >, >=): Definitions in terms of <?, <=?,
1867 =?, >?, and >=? deleted; they're defined that way by libguile now.
1868
99f97bfe 1869 * boot-9.scm (load): Simplified; primitive-load does most of this

1896 to the error handler. E.g.: fancy emacs support could plug into

1899 depending on the stack id. (The motivation is to make a better
1900 choice regarding what stack frames to present to the user.)
1bb961a3 1901 (error-catching-loop): Stack handling code moved outside into

2016 with a .scm extension before searching the library directories

2026 * boot-9.scm (%%bad-throw): Delete definition. 1) It's very
027ffa31
JB
2027 straightforward to provide the equivalent functionality using
2028 (catch #t ...), so there's no need for the extra complexity. 2)
2029 Outside the context of a read-eval-print loop (which Guile should
2030 not require) it's not clear we should do anything more complicated
2031 than print an error and exit; the user or REPL can establish
2032 something better if it wants. 3) In that case, it's much more
2033 robust to just do it in the C code.
