Fix some bugs in fns.c, discovered in passing while doing other work. 2010-11-14 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * fns.c (Fnreverse): Check that non-list sequences are writable from Lisp before modifying them. (There's an argument that we should do this for list sequences too, but for the moment other code (e.g. #'setcar) doesn't.) (mapcarX): Initialise lisp_vals_staging, lisp_vals_type explicitly, for the sake of compile warnings. Check if lisp_vals_staging is non-NULL when deciding whether to replace a string's range. (Fsome): Cross-reference to #'find-if in the doc string for this function. (Freduce): GCPRO accum in this function, when a key argument is specicified it can be silently garbage-collected. When deciding whether to iterate across a string, check whether the cursor exceeds the byte len; while iterating, increment an integer counter. Don't ABORT() if check_sequence_range() returns when handed a suspicious sequence; it is legal to supply the length of SEQUENCE as the :end keyword value, and this will provoke our suspicions, legitimately enough. (Problems with this function revealed by Paul Dietz' ANSI test suite, thank you Paul Dietz.) (Freplace): Check list sequence lengths using the arguments, not the conses we're currently looking at, thank you Paul Dietz.

2 operating-system-specific definitions. Each file describes a

12 The following is a list of those changes made globally across all
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs

13 files. They are not marked individually in each header file. All
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:

14 other changes should be preceded by a comment /* XEmacs change */.

17 1. Removed all #defines of [read|write|open|close]. This is now

376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
21 #define BROKEN_SIGIO. Jamie says:

25 3. All instances of HAVE_GETWD, HAVE_DUP2, HAVE_UNISTD_H, NEED_UNISTD_H,
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
26 HAVE_GETTIMEOFDAY and NEED_REALPATH removed. We detect these
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs

27 automatically with configure.

29 4. All instances of HAVE_X11 replaced with HAVE_X_WINDOWS. We don't
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:

30 support X10 or earlier so the HAVE_X11 define was purged.

32 5. Most of the signal crap (e.g. redefining sigsetmask, defining
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
33 POSIX_SIGNALS) has been removed. There are four possible
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
34 signal paradigms that all systems fall into, and we auto-detect
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:

35 them in configure and handle them in syssignal.h.

37 6. Removed references to INTERRUPT_INPUT. XEmacs does not use
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
38 this bizarre way of reading input.

376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
41 in INTERRUPT_INPUT and in the select() emulator, neither of
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14

376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs

45 and in FSF Emacs.

376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:

48 They are unnecessary with the cleaned up syswait.h in XEmacs.
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
49 (We autodetect sys/wait.h). Instead, #define or #undef
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
50 HAVE_UNION_WAIT.

52 10. Removed BSTRING. Not used anywhere. (If the header file
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
53 says there are bugs in bcopy() or the like, however, a
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
54 #define BROKEN_BCOPY is added for reference.)

376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:

57 XEmacs makes consistent use of the ANSI-equivalent
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14

376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14

376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
69 HAVE_TCATTR (when HAVE_TERMIOS was also defined).
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
70 configure detects these and systty.h automatically defines
376386a54a3c Import from CVS: tag r19-14
cvs
parents:
diff changeset
71 HAVE_TCATTR when HAVE_TERMIOS is defined.
