Fix various small issues with the multiple-value implementation. lisp/ChangeLog addition: 2009-08-31 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * byte-optimize.el (byte-optimize-form-code-walker): Be careful about discarding multiple values when optimising #'prog1 calls. (byte-optimize-or): Preserve any trailing nil, as this is a supported way to explicitly discard multiple values. (byte-optimize-cond-1): Discard multiple values with a singleton followed by no more clauses. * bytecomp.el (progn): (prog1): (prog2): Be careful about discarding multiple values in the byte-hunk handler of these three forms. * bytecomp.el (byte-compile-prog1, byte-compile-prog2): Don't call #'values explicitly, use `(or ,(pop form) nil) instead, since that compiles to bytecode, not a funcall. * bytecomp.el (byte-compile-values): With one non-const argument, byte-compile to `(or ,(second form) nil), not an explicit #'values call. * bytecomp.el (byte-compile-insert-header): Be nicer in the error message to emacs versions that don't understand our bytecode. src/ChangeLog addition: 2009-08-31 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * eval.c (For, Fand): Don't declare val as REGISTER in these functions, for some reason it breaks the non-DEBUG union build. These functions are only called from interpreted code, the performance implication doesn't matter. Thank you Robert Delius Royar! * eval.c (Fmultiple_value_list_internal): Error on too many arguments. tests/ChangeLog addition: 2009-08-31 Aidan Kehoe <kehoea@parhasard.net> * automated/lisp-tests.el (Assert-rounding): Remove an overly-verbose failure message here. Correct a couple of tests which were buggy in themselves. Add three new tests, checking the behaviour of #'or and #'and when passed zero arguments, and a Known-Bug-Expect-Failure call involving letf and values. (The bug predates the C-level multiple-value implementation.)

This directory contains XEmacs' automated test suite.  The usual way
of running all the tests is running `make check' from the top-level
source directory.

The test suite is unfinished and it's still lacking some essential
features.  It is nevertheless recommended that you run the tests to
confirm that XEmacs behaves correctly.

If you want to run a specific test case, you can do it from the
command-line like this:

$ xemacs -batch -l test-harness.elc -f batch-test-emacs TEST-FILE

If something goes wrong, you can run the test suite interactively by
loading `test-harness.el' into a running XEmacs and typing
`M-x test-emacs-test-file RET <filename> RET'.  You will see a log of
passed and failed tests, which should allow you to investigate the
source of the error and ultimately fix the bug.

Adding a new test file is trivial: just create a new file here and it
will be run.  There is no need to byte-compile any of the files in
this directory -- the test-harness will take care of any necessary
byte-compilation.

Look at the existing test cases for the examples of coding test cases.
It all boils down to your imagination and judicious use of the macros
`Assert', `Check-Error', `Check-Error-Message', and `Check-Message'.
