configure flag to turn these changes on: --use-kkcc
First we added a dumpable flag to lrecord_implementation. It shows,
if the object is dumpable and should be processed by the dumper.
* lrecord.h (struct lrecord_implementation): added dumpable flag
(MAKE_LRECORD_IMPLEMENTATION): fitted the different makro definitions
to the new lrecord_implementation and their calls.
Then we changed mark_object, that it no longer needs a mark method for
those types that have pdump descritions.
* alloc.c:
(mark_object): If the object has a description, the new mark algorithm
is called, and the object is marked according to its description.
Otherwise it uses the mark method like before.
These procedures mark objects according to their descriptions. They
are modeled on the corresponding pdumper procedures.
(mark_with_description):
(get_indirect_count):
(structure_size):
(mark_struct_contents):
These procedures still call mark_object, this is needed while there are
Lisp_Objects without descriptions left.
We added pdump descriptions for many Lisp_Objects:
* extents.c: extent_auxiliary_description
* database.c: database_description
* gui.c: gui_item_description
* scrollbar.c: scrollbar_instance_description
* toolbar.c: toolbar_button_description
* event-stream.c: command_builder_description
* mule-charset.c: charset_description
* device-msw.c: devmode_description
* dialog-msw.c: mswindows_dialog_id_description
* eldap.c: ldap_description
* postgresql.c: pgconn_description
pgresult_description
* tooltalk.c: tooltalk_message_description
tooltalk_pattern_description
* ui-gtk.c: emacs_ffi_description
emacs_gtk_object_description
* events.c:
* events.h:
* event-stream.c:
* event-Xt.c:
* event-gtk.c:
* event-tty.c:
To write a pdump description for Lisp_Event, we converted every struct
in the union event to a Lisp_Object. So we created nine new
Lisp_Objects: Lisp_Key_Data, Lisp_Button_Data, Lisp_Motion_Data,
Lisp_Process_Data, Lisp_Timeout_Data, Lisp_Eval_Data,
Lisp_Misc_User_Data, Lisp_Magic_Data, Lisp_Magic_Eval_Data.
We also wrote makro selectors and mutators for the fields of the new
designed Lisp_Event and added everywhere these new abstractions.
We implemented XD_UNION support in (mark_with_description), so
we can describe exspecially console/device specific data with XD_UNION.
To describe with XD_UNION, we added a field to these objects, which
holds the variant type of the object. This field is initialized in
the appendant constructor. The variant is an integer, it has also to
be described in an description, if XD_UNION is used.
XD_UNION is used in following descriptions:
* console.c: console_description
(get_console_variant): returns the variant
(create_console): added variant initialization
* console.h (console_variant): the different console types
* console-impl.h (struct console): added enum console_variant contype
* device.c: device_description
(Fmake_device): added variant initialization
* device-impl.h (struct device): added enum console_variant devtype
* objects.c: image_instance_description
font_instance_description
(Fmake_color_instance): added variant initialization
(Fmake_font_instance): added variant initialization
* objects-impl.h (struct Lisp_Color_Instance): added color_instance_type
* objects-impl.h (struct Lisp_Font_Instance): added font_instance_type
* process.c: process_description
(make_process_internal): added variant initialization
* process.h (process_variant): the different process types

398 | 1 This directory contains XEmacs' automated test suite. The usual way |
2 of running all the tests is running `make check' from the top-level | |
3 source directory. | |
4 | |
5 The test suite is unfinished and it's still lacking some essential | |
6 features. It is nevertheless recommended that you run the tests to | |
7 confirm that XEmacs behaves correctly. | |
8 | |
9 If you want to run a specific test case, you can do it from the | |
10 command-line like this: | |
11 | |
12 $ xemacs -batch -l test-harness.elc -f batch-test-emacs TEST-FILE | |
13 | |
14 If something goes wrong, you can run the test suite interactively by | |
15 loading `test-harness.el' into a running XEmacs and typing | |
16 `M-x test-emacs-test-file RET <filename> RET'. You will see a log of | |
17 passed and failed tests, which should allow you to investigate the | |
18 source of the error and ultimately fix the bug. | |
19 | |
20 Adding a new test file is trivial: just create a new file here and it | |
21 will be run. There is no need to byte-compile any of the files in | |
22 this directory -- the test-harness will take care of any necessary | |
23 byte-compilation. | |
24 | |
25 Look at the existing test cases for the examples of coding test cases. | |
26 It all boils down to your imagination and judicious use of the macros | |
27 `Assert', `Check-Error', `Check-Error-Message', and `Check-Message'. |
