[xemacs-hg @ 2003-02-07 11:50:50 by ben] fixes for menu crashes + better preemption behavior This contains two related changes: (1) Fix problems with reentrant calling of lwlib and associated crashes when selecting menu items. (2) Improve redisplay handling of preemption. Turn on lazy lock and hold down page-down or page-up and you'll see what I mean. They are related because they both touch on the code that retrieves events and handles the internal queues. console-msw.h, event-msw.c, event-stream.c, events.h, menubar-msw.c, menubar-x.c, menubar.h: mswindows_protect_modal_loop() has been generalized to event_stream_protect_modal_loop(), and moved to event-stream.c. mswindows_in_modal_loop ->in_modal_loop likewise. Changes in event-msw.c and menubar-msw.c for the new names and calling format (use structures instead of static variables in menubar-msw.c). Delete former in_menu_callback and use in_modal_loop in its place. Remove emacs_mswindows_quit_check_disallowed_p(), superseded by in_modal_loop. Use event_stream_protect_modal_loop() in pre_activate_callback() so that we get no lwlib reentrancy. Rearrange some of the code in event-msw.c to be grouped better. Make mswindows_drain_windows_queue() respect in_modal_loop and do nothing if so. cmdloop.c, event-stream.c: Don't conditionalize on LWLIB_MENUBARS_LUCID when giving error when in_modal_loop, and give better error. event-Xt.c, event-gtk.c: If in_modal_loop, only retrieve process and timeout events. Don't retrieve any X events because processing them can lead to reentrancy in lwlib -> death. event-stream.c: Remove unused parameter to check_event_stream_ok() and change all callers. lisp.h, event-stream.c: Rearrange some functions for increased clarity -- in particular, group all the input-pending/QUIT-related stuff together, and put right next to next-event stuff, to which it's related. Add the concept of "HOW_MANY" -- when asking whether user input is pending, you can ask if at least HOW_MANY events are pending, not just if any are. Add parameter to detect_input_pending() for this. Change recursive_sit_for from a Lisp_Object (which could only be Qt or Qnil) to an int, like it should be. event-Xt.c, event-gtk.c, event-xlike-inc.c: New file. Abstract out similar code in event_{Xt/gtk}_pending_p() and write only once, using include-file tricks. Rewrite this function to implement HOW_MANY and only process events when not in_modal_loop. event-msw.c: Implement HOW_MANY and only process events when not in_modal_loop. event-tty.c: Implement HOW_MANY. redisplay.c: Add var `max-preempts' to control maximum number of preempts. (#### perhaps not useful) Rewrite preemption check so that, rather than preempting when any user events are available, only preempt when a certain number (currently 4) of them are backed up. This effectively allows redisplay to proceed to completion in the presence of a fast auto-repeat (usually the auto-repeating is generated dynamically as necessary), and you get much better display behavior with lazy-lock active. event-unixoid.c: Comment changes. event-stream.c: Rewrite discard-input much more simply and safely using the drain-queue functions. I think the old version might loop forever if called when in_modal_loop. SEMI-UNRELATED CHANGES: ----------------------- event-stream.c: Turn QUIT-checking back on when running the pre-idle hook so it can be quit out of. indent.c: Document exact functioning of `vertical-motion' better, and its differences from GNU Emacs.

 /* Mask of bits indicating the descriptors that we wait for input on.
    These work as follows:
 
+   In event-tty.c we call select() directly on this
+   to retrieve an event.  In event-Xt.c we use
+   XtAppAddInput() and the call to select() is down in
+   the guts of Xt, but we still use the masks when checking for pending input, even in event-Xt.c. (We can't use XtAppPending() because of the presence of the signal event pipe.)
+
    input_wait_mask == mask of all file descriptors we select() on,
                       including TTY/stream console descriptors,
 		      process descriptors, and the signal event pipe.
-		      Only used in event-tty.c; event-Xt.c uses
-		      XtAppAddInput(), and the call to select() is down in
-		      the guts of Xt.
 
    non_fake_input_wait_mask == same as input_wait_mask but minus the
                                signal event pipe.  Also only used in
