[xemacs-hg @ 2002-11-18 06:52:23 by ben] warning fixes, etc. * s/cygwin32.h: -fvtable-thunks is obsolete in GCC 3 and generates warnings. * s/mingw32.h: * s/windowsnt.h: Comment fixes. * emodules.h: Fix warnings from redefining symbols. * eval.c: Fix C++ errors -- no automatic casting between function pointers and void *, function declarations inside of functions not allowed. * event-Xt.c (emacs_Xt_enqueue_focus_event): Warning fixes. * fileio.c (Ffile_truename): Warning fixes. Use LOCAL_TO_WIN32_FILE_FORMAT rather than duplicating it. * glyphs-x.c: Fix style. * intl-auto-encap-win32.c: * intl-auto-encap-win32.h: * intl-encap-win32.c: * intl-encap-win32.c (qxeRegConnectRegistry): * syswindows.h (RegConnectRegistry): DdeCreateStringHandle needs to be manual due to new Cygwin bug. * intl-win32.c: wcslen/wcscmp don't seem to exist under G++ 3, Cygwin. * lisp.h: * lisp-union.h: * lisp-disunion.h: * process-unix.c (unix_send_process): Ugh, C needs volatile and C++ must not have volatile. Remove previous volatile hacks, which don't seem to be working any more. * sheap.c (STATIC_HEAP_SLOP): Try to get a working Cygwin build with old unexec. * sheap.c (more_static_core): No NL's in literals allowed. * symbols.c (Fset): Fix C++ errors. * syswindows.h: Fix Cygwin complaints now that some missing structs have been added. aclocal.m4: Disable shared library modules under Cygwin for the moment, since we need some more tricky coding done and I don't have the time right now. configure.in, configure.usage: code-files.el, loadhist.el: Fix warnings. package-get.el: Fix warnings. NOTE: This was already fixed awhile ago, but reverted by Steve Y. Please be careful. postgresql/Makefile.in.in: Removed. Move common stuff into modues/common/Makefile.common. (Also add extraclean target and a couple of other fixes in that file.) postgresql/configure.ac: Extract out common configure stuff into modules/common/configure-{pre,post}.ac. postgresql/postgresql.c: Fix warning. ldap/Makefile.in.in: Removed. Move common stuff into modues/common/Makefile.common. (Also add extraclean target and a couple of other fixes in that file.) ldap/configure.ac: Extract out common configure stuff into modules/common/configure-{pre,post}.ac. common/Makefile.common: Common stuff is here.

This directory contains a number of XEmacs dynamic modules.  These
modules can be loaded directly with the command 'M-x load-module'.
However, the preferred method of loading a module is to issue a
"(require 'module-name)" command to the Lisp interpreter.  This will
store information so that a later "(unload-feature 'module-name)" can
succeed.

To compile one of these modules, simply enter the desired directory,
type 'configure', and then 'make'.  If you are building the module for
an installed XEmacs, then 'make install' will place the module in the
appropriate directory for XEmacs to find it later (assuming you have
permission to write to that directory).  A subsequent 'load-module' or
'require' will then load the module, as described above.

Each of these demonstrates different features and limitations of the
XEmacs module loading technology.  For a complete discussion on XEmacs
dynamic modules, please consult the XEmacs Module Writers Guide, which
can be found in the ../info directory.

For those wanting to get started with module writing, please see the
'sample' directory.  It contains two subdirectories: internal and
external.  The 'internal' subdirectory contains the framework needed to
migrate some core piece of XEmacs functionality into code that can
either be compiled into the core or built as a separate module.  The
'external' subdirectory contains the somewhat simpler framework needed
to build a module separately from XEmacs.  These should be considered
starting places for module writing.
