Redo memory-usage mechanism, make it general; add way of dynamically
initializing Lisp object types -- OBJECT_HAS_METHOD(), similar to
CONSOLE_HAS_METHOD().
(1) Create OBJECT_HAS_METHOD(), OBJECT_HAS_PROPERTY() etc. for
specifying that a Lisp object type has a particular method or
property. Call such methods with OBJECT_METH, MAYBE_OBJECT_METH,
OBJECT_METH_OR_GIVEN; retrieve properties with OBJECT_PROPERTY.
Methods that formerly required a DEFINE_*GENERAL_LISP_OBJECT() to
specify them (getprop, putprop, remprop, plist, disksave) now
instead use the dynamic-method mechanism. The main benefit of
this is that new methods or properties can be added without
requiring that the declaration statements of all existing methods
be modified. We have to make the `struct lrecord_implementation'
non-const, but I don't think this should have any effect on speed --
the only possible method that's really speed-critical is the
mark method, and we already extract those out into a separate
(non-const) array for increased cache locality.
Object methods need to be reinitialized after pdump, so we put
them in separate functions such as face_objects_create(),
extent_objects_create() and call them appropriately from emacs.c
The only current object property (`memusage_stats_list') that
objects can specify is a Lisp object and gets staticpro()ed so it
only needs to be set during dump time, but because it references
symbols that might not exist in a syms_of_() function, we
initialize it in vars_of_(). There is also an object property
(`num_extra_memusage_stats') that is automatically initialized based
on `memusage_stats_list'; we do that in reinit_vars_of_alloc(),
which is called after all vars_of_() functions are called.
`disksaver' method was renamed `disksave' to correspond with the
name normally given to the function (e.g. disksave_lstream()).
(2) Generalize the memory-usage mechanism in `buffer-memory-usage',
`window-memory-usage', `charset-memory-usage' into an object-type-
specific mechanism called by a single function
`object-memory-usage'. (Former function `object-memory-usage'
renamed to `total-object-memory-usage'). Generalize the mechanism
of different "slices" so that we can have different "classes" of
memory described and different "slices" onto each class; `t'
separates classes, `nil' separates slices. Currently we have
three classes defined: the memory of an object itself,
non-Lisp-object memory associated with the object (e.g. arrays or
dynarrs stored as fields in the object), and Lisp-object memory
associated with the object (other internal Lisp objects stored in
the object). This isn't completely finished yet and we might need
to further separate the "other internal Lisp objects" class into
two classes.
The memory-usage mechanism uses a `struct usage_stats' (renamed
from `struct overhead_stats') to describe a malloc-view onto a set
of allocated memory (listing how much was requested and various
types of overhead) and a more general `struct generic_usage_stats'
(with a `struct usage_stats' in it) to hold all statistics about
object memory. `struct generic_usage_stats' contains an array of
32 Bytecounts, which are statistics of unspecified semantics. The
intention is that individual types declare a corresponding struct
(e.g. `struct window_stats') with the same structure but with
specific fields in place of the array, corresponding to specific
statistics. The number of such statistics is an object property
computed from the list of tags (Lisp symbols describing the
statistics) stored in `memusage_stats_list'. The idea here is to
allow particular object types to customize the number and
semantics of the statistics where completely avoiding consing.
This doesn't matter so much yet, but the intention is to have the
memory usage of all objects computed at the end of GC, at the same
time as other statistics are currently computed. The values for
all statistics for a single type would be added up to compute
aggregate values for all objects of a specific type. To make this
efficient, we can't allow any memory allocation at all.
(3) Create some additional functions for creating lists that
specify the elements directly as args rather than indirectly through
an array: listn() (number of args given), listu() (list terminated
by Qunbound).
(4) Delete a bit of remaining unused C window_config stuff, also
unused lrecord_type_popup_data.

Package distributions may be placed in this directory. If present and a package-path is configured, packages can be installed using the top-level Makefile. To configure the package path, use the --with-late-packages option to configure, which specifies a single directory in which to install the xemacs-packages and mule-packages hierarchies provided. If this is null, or contains a Unix-style search path (i.e., a colon is present in the argument of the --with-late-packages option), you will have to install the packages by hand. To find out if a distribution includes bundled packages, type make check-available-packages There are three Make targets that may be available depending on the package sets supplied. make install-bootstrap-packages Install a selected set of packages sufficient to support downloading and installing packages via the M-x list-packages interface. Chose this if you want to be able to install the latest version of each package immediately. make install-nomule-packages Install the full distribution of packages that do not require a Mule-enabled XEmacs. Choose this package if you don't have a Mule-enabled XEmacs and want the convenience of a single-command installation. You can add or update packages via M-x list-packages at any time. make install-all-packages Install the full distribution of packages, including those requiring a Mule-enabled XEmacs. Choose this package if you have a Mule- enabled XEmacs and want the convenience of a single-command installation. You can add or update packages via M-x list-packages at any time. DISTRIBUTOR'S NOTE: you may choose what packages you wish to include in bootstrap.tar.gz, but to make list-packages work you need to include at least xemacs-base, dired, and efs. The tarball should unpack directly as an xemacs-packages tree (and optionaly, a mule-packages tree. Also, if either of xemacs-sumo.tar.gz or xemacs-mule-sumo.tar.gz is provided, the other should be as well. If packages are not available with the distribution, you can get them at ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/packages/xemacs-sumo.tar.gz ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/packages/xemacs-mule-sumo.tar.gz http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp/Tools/XEmacs/bootstrap.tar.gz and place them in the same directory as this file. You can also make your own bootstrap.tar.gz by creating a directory xemacs-packages, then untarring the packages of your choice into that directory, and tarring the whole thing up with "tar czf bootstrap.tar.gz xemacs-packages". (If you wish to include mule-packages, you should place them in mule-packages as a sibling of xemacs-packages.) This facility currently does not support installations which configure the --with-early-packages, --with-late-packages, or --with-last-packages options. This facility currently will not overwrite an existing package installation, not even if a whole hierarchy (usually the mule-packages) is missing. In particular, you cannot use this feature to add the mule-packages to a package installation which lacks them, even if the hierarchy is missing, or the xemacs-packages hierarchy was installed this way. Nor can you "upgrade" a bootstrap installation to a full installation. If you wish to do any of these things you will need to remove the existing hierarchies.
