|
|
instead of using sscanf which stops as soon as there is a
|
|
non-digit in the input. Previously, incr(1xyzzy), eval(1,2xyzzy)
|
|
and divert(1xyzzy) were all accepted without any warning or error
|
|
messages.
|
|
* m4.h: Declare strtol as long if not including stdlib.h.
|
|
* configure.in: Check for limits.h, and replace strtol if missing.
|

Wed Jul 6 13:16:31 1994 Jim Avera (jima@netcom.com)
|
|
|
|
* stackovf.c: Isolated OS-dependent sections; Improved portability,
|
|
adding support for SunOS/BSD (sigvec, sigstack, and 4-parameter signal
|
|
handlers), and a default error message if the fault address is not
|
|
available (when neither siginfo.h nor BSD sigcontext are supported).
|
|
* configure.in: Changes for stackovf.h: Check for sigcontext,
|
|
sigaction, sigstack, and define rlim_t as int if necessary.
|

Sat Jul 2 00:58:47 1994 François Pinard (pinard@icule)
|
|
|
|
* configure.in: Remove dependency of USE_STACKOVF on STDC_HEADERS,
|
|
because siginfo.h is unrelated to standard headers, and siginfo.h
|
|
is already checked for.
|
|
Reported by Joseph E. Sacco.
|
|
|
|
* acconfig.h, aclocal.m4, m4.h: Replace HAVE_PROTOTYPES by
|
|
PROTOTYPES.

AC_PROTOTYPES.
|
|
|
|
Wed Jun 29 22:41:53 1994 François Pinard (pinard@icule)
|
|
|
|
* builtin.c (substitute): Use \& to represent this part of the
|
|
string which was matched by the whole regexp, instead of
|
|
representing the whole string. Any usage of \0 issues a warning
|
|
and acts like \&, it will disappear in some subsequent release.
|
|
|
|
Mon Jun 27 14:24:23 1994 François Pinard (pinard@icule)
|
|
|
|
* m4.c: Complete prototype for forwarded declaration of usage.
|
|
|
|
* input.c (init_macro_token): Correct own reference in error
|
|
message. Previous name get_macro_func was referred to instead.
|
|
(next_char): Correct own reference in error message. Previous
|
|
name advance_input was referred to instead.
|
|
|
|
* m4.h: Declare eval_t and unsigned_eval_t typedefs to 32 bits.
|
|
* eval.c (logical_or_term, logical_and_term, or_term, xor_term,
|
|
and_term, not_term, logical_not_term, cmp_term, shift_term,
|
|
add_term, mult_term, exp_term, unary_term, simple_term): Add
|

prototype to forwarded declarations. Declare parameter v1 as
|
|
eval_t * instead of int *. Same for local variable v2 in dyadic
|
|
functions. Same for result in exp_term.
|
|
* builtin.c (m4_eval): Declare value as eval_t instead of int.
|
|
(ntoa): Declare value as eval_t instead of int. Declare uvalue as
|
|
unsigned_eval_t instead of unsigned int. Change casts accordingly.
|
|
(shipout_int): Cast first argument of ntoa to eval_t.
|
|
Reported by Thorsten Ohl.
|
|
|
|
* macro.c: Complete the prototypes of forwarded expand_macro and
|
|
expand_token.
|
|
Reported by Thorsten Ohl.
|
|
|
|
* m4.h: Define voidstar as void * or char * depending on __STDC__.
|
|
The Ultrix 3.1 compiler cannot do much with void pointers.
|
|
|
|
* builtin.c (dumpdef_cmp): Replace void * by voidstar.
|
|
* m4.c (xfree): Replace void * by voidstar.
|

* Makefile.in (DISTFILES): Distribute ansi2knr.1
|
|
|
|
* Makefile.in (stamp-h.in): Avoid running ./config.status if
|
|
stamp-h does not exist yet. This avoids running it a second time
|
|
just after the initial ./configure.
|
|
Reported by David MacKenzie and Tom McConnell.
|
|
|
|
* m4.h: Replace the enum debug_info declaration with a series of
|
|
#define's. The Ultrix 3.1 compiler would otherwise need casting
|
|
(int) to most references, when used in expressions.
|
|
Reported by Tom McConnell.
|
|
|
|
Sat Jun 25 00:10:05 1994 François Pinard (pinard@icule)
|
|
|
|
* aclocal.m4: Replace FP_PROTOTYPES by AC_HAVE_PROTOTYPES,
|
|
following an idea from Brook G. Milligan. AC_HAVE_PROTOTYPES
|
|
calls the compiler. Previously, FP_PROTOTYPES was only calling
|
|
the preprocessor; by not being subject to CFLAGS, this was
|
|
discouraging those flags asking for ANSI compilation.
|
|
* acconfig.h: Document HAVE_PROTOTYPES.
|
|
* configure.in: Use AC_HAVE_PROTOTYPES instead of FP_PROTOTYPES.
|
|
* m4.h: Define _() according to HAVE_PROTOTYPES, not __STDC__.
|
|
Reported by Eric Backus.
|
|
|
|
* configure.in: Substitute CFLAGS and LDFLAGS, taking their value
|
|
from the environment. Default CFLAGS to -g if not set.
|
|
* Makefile.in: Have CFLAGS and LDFLAGS substituted from configure.
|
|
* lib/Makefile.in: Have CFLAGS substituted from configure.
|
|
Reported by Eric Backus and Tom McConnell.
|
|
|
|
* configure.in: m4_undefine changeword before using AC_ENABLE.
|
|
|
|
* m4.h: Declare prototypes for error (for ANSI compilers only),
|
|
prefix_all_builtins and reference_error.
|
|
Reported by Tom McConnell.
|
|
|
|
* input.c (set_word_regexp): Do not try to initialize the array
|
|
test from a string, this does not work with non-ANSI compilers.
|
|
Reported by Eric Backus.
|
|
|
|
* Makefile.in (dist): Clean examples/ before saving it.
|
|
(distclean-local): Also remove stamp-h.

Implement -LNUMBER or --nesting-limit=NUMBER to change its
|
|
value.
|
|
* m4.h: Declare nesting_limit as external.
|
|
* macro.c (expand_macro): Stop execution whenever nesting limit
|
|
is exceeded.
|
|
Reported by Bengt Mertensson.
|
|
|
|
* eval.c (evaluate): Diagnose excess characters in eval input.
|
|
Things like `eval(08)' used to return 0 with no diagnostic.
|
|
|
|
* m4.h: Capitalize first letter of all macro arguments in
|
|
definitions.
|
|
|
|

|
|
option -E, or --fatal-warnings, which sets warning_status to
|
|
EXIT_FAILURE instead.

|
|
Wed Jun 22 21:58:54 1994 François Pinard (pinard@icule)
|
|
|
|
* configure.in: Avoid USE_STACKOVF if <siginfo.h> not found. Note
|
|
that Jim developed stackovf.c on a 486 running SVR4.0 (ESIX), and
|
|
also tested it on a Sun Sparc workstation running SunOS 4.x.
|
|
|
|
* format.c (format): When not HAVE_EFGCVT, m4 was failing the
|
|
49.format check, abusing a `union values' argument with sprintf
|
|
without selecting the proper field. Now, save the formatting type
|
|
first, delaying the fetch of the corresponding argument.
|
|
Reported by Joseph E. Sacco and Tom Quinn.
|
|
|
|
* format.c (format): Remove const from char *fmt declaration when

|
|
Reported by Joseph E. Sacco.

|
|
Reported by Jim Meyering and Joseph E. Sacco.
|
|

|
|
|
|
* checks/Makefile.in (CHECKS): Add a useless `*' before `[', to

* m4.c: Replace errref, which was returning an input reference
|
|
string, with reference_error, which prints it on standard error.
|
|
* builtin.c, output.c: Use errno as second parameter to error,
|
|
instead of using syserr() with %s.
|
|
* *.c: Use M4ERROR instead of error: no more errref() with %s.
|
|
Doing so, the program name appears after the input reference
|
|
instead of before, which eases M-x next-error processing.

|
|
|
|
* input.c (input_init): Initialize quote and comment strings

explicitly instead of calling set_quotes and set_comment: by
|
|
doing so, we ensure we do not free uninitialized variables.

|
|
expected is on the left and the obtained on the right.
|
|

|
|
(trace_format): Use stdarg instead of varargs if __STDC__.
|
|

|

Sat Dec 19 08:21:34 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule)
|
|
|
|
* Release 1.0.3
|
|
This is still a beta release for the future GNU m4 version 1.1.
|
|
|
|
* lib/alloca.c: New, from elsewhere.
|
|
* lib/Makefile.in: Distribute it. Define and use $(ALLOCA).
|
|
|
|
* m4.h: Do not define index/rindex if already defined. If
|
|
FALSE/TRUE are already defined, do not redefine them, but merely
|
|
define boolean typedef to int.
|
|
|
|
* Makefile.in: Use $(DEFS) while compiling ansi2knr.
|
|
* ansi2knr.c: Rewrite #ifdef HAVE_STRING_H || STDC_HEADERS,
|
|
because some C compilers do not like connectives with #ifdef.
|
|
* m4.h: Define `volatile' only if __GNUC__, instead of once for
|
|
__GNUC__ and once for __STDC__.
|
|
* lib/regex.h: Leave const alone, AC_CONST will take care of it.
|
|
|
|
* checks/Makefile.in: Use .all_stamp instead of $(CHECKS) for
|
|
Makefile dependencies. Without it, make keeps destroying and
|
|
remaking $(CHECKS) in a loop (why?). Distribute .all_stamp.
|
|
|
|
* m4.h, m4.c, builtin.c, output.c: Change all divertion/DIVERTION
|
|
to diversion/DIVERSION, this was a spelling error.
|
|
|
|
* m4.c: Declare version[], remove #include "version.h".
|
|
* version.h: Deleted.
|
|
* Makefile.in: Remove references to version.h.
|
|
|
|
* output.c (shipout_text): Centralize all `#line NUM ["FILE"]'
|
|
production, by using a simpler and more robust algorithm. This
|
|
solves the problem of synclines sometimes written in the middle of
|
|
an output line. Delete sync_line() and output_lines variable.
|
|
* m4.h: Remove sync_line prototype and output_lines declaration.
|
|
* input.c (next_char), output.c (shipout_text): Remove references
|
|
to output_lines.
|
|
* input.c (push_file, pop_file): Merely put the value -1 in
|
|
output_current_line instead of calling sync_line, for delaying a
|
|
single `#line NUM FILE' before next output line. Do not test
|
|
for sync_output, because this is unnecessary clutter.
|
|
* output.c (make_divertion, insert_divertion): Idem.
|
|
* input.c: Rename must_advance_line to start_of_input_line, for
|
|
consistency.
|
|
|
|
* debug.c (trace_header): Select a new debug line format, which
|
|
better complies with GNU standards for formatting error messages.
|
|
With option `-dfl', M-x next-error might be used on the output.
|
|
* m4.c (vmesg): Adjust format of error output to GNU standards.
|
|
* m4.texinfo: Adjust examples for `make check' to work.
|
|
|
|
* m4.h, builtin.c, debug.c, input.c, macro.c, path.c: Use upper
|
|
case for enum debug_info constants, which were all lower case.
|
|
|
|
* builtin.c (m4_regexp, m4_patsubst): Use re_search instead of
|
|
re_search_2.
|
|
* lib/regex.[ch]: Use new version from textutils 1.3.6, with some
|
|
collected patches. I tried a few times using newer regex.[ch], it
|
|
mysteriously stopped aborting with this one. Insecure feeling...
|
|
* lib/Makefile.in: Distribute regex.[ch].old, just in case!
|
|
|
|
Fri Dec 18 11:08:03 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule)
|
|
|
|
* m4.c: Change `--no-warnings' to `--silent'.
|
|
Reported by David MacKenzie.
|
|
|
|
* m4.c: Put all M4OPTS code upon IMPLEMENT_M4OPTS control, and
|
|
leave it off for now. See comment in m4.c for justification.
|
|
Reported by David MacKenzie.
|
|
|
|
* configure.in: Replace AC_USG by AC_HAVE_HEADERS(string.h).
|
|
* m4.h, ansi2knr.c, lib/regex.h: Replace USG by HAVE_STRING_H.
|
|
|
|
* Makefile.in: Add a new `info' goal. Use macro MAKEINFO.
|
|
|
|
* Makefile.in: Ensure recursive cleaning is done before local
|
|
cleaning for all clean goals.
|
|
|
|
* builtin.c (ntoa): Ensure the value is always interpreted as a
|
|
signed quantity, whatever the radix is.
|
|
|
|
Wed Nov 18 07:57:19 1992 Jim Meyering (meyering@idefix)
|
|
|
|
* builtin.c, format.c, input.c: Split long lines.
|
|
* m4.c: Use typedef macro_definition instead of struct
|
|
macro_definition.
|
|
* symtab.c: Use typedef symbol instead of struct symbol.
|
|
|
|
Tue Nov 17 01:58:40 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule)
|
|
|
|
* *.[ch]: Remove all trailing whitespace, in code and comments.
|
|
|
|
* configure.in: Find some awk.
|
|
* Makefile.in: Add $(AWK) to MDEFINES.
|
|
* checks/Makefile.in: Transmit $(AWK) to get_them.
|
|
* checks/get_them: Use $AWK instead of gawk. Add a close in the
|
|
awk script when switching files, because without this, mawk runs
|
|
out of file descriptors.
|
|
|
|
Mon Nov 16 20:42:56 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule)
|
|
|

|
|
* checks/Makefile.in: New.
|
|
* configure.in: Output checks/Makefile.
|
|
|
|
* checks/get_them: Have the dnl header of each test more
|
|
recognizable by next-error, also use a better message.
|
|
|
|
Mon Nov 16 07:48:52 1992 Jim Meyering (meyering@idefix)
|
|
|
|
* m4.h [__GNUC__]: Use __volatile__ instead of `volatile.'
|
|
And use that only if __GNUC__ since we're using it's GCC-specific
|
|
semantics that tell the compiler the associated function doesn't
|
|
return.
|
|
|
|
* builtin.c (substitute): Don't use character as an array index.
|
|
(dumpdef_cmp): Make formal arguments `const void *' to avoid
|
|
warnings with gcc -W -Wall on systems with qsort prototype.
|
|
(m4_errprint): Cast obstack_finish to `char *' to avoid warnings
|
|
from gcc -W -Wall.
|
|
|
|
* eval.c (most functions): Add parentheses to assignments used
|
|
as truth values go avoid warnings from gcc -Wall.
|
|
|
|
* input.c, m4.c, output.c, path.c, symtab.c: Declare static
|
|
any functions that don't need external scope.
|
|
|
|
* builtin.c, debug.c, format.c, m4.c, m4.h, macro.c, symtab.c
|
|
(many functions and arrays): Declare `const'.
|
|
|
|
Sun Nov 15 09:42:09 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule)
|
|
|
|
* *.[ch]: Rename nil to NULL, using the declaration from <stdio.h>,
|
|
removing the declaration from m4.h. Also rename false to FALSE
|
|
and true to TRUE.
|
|
|
|
* lib/Makefile.in (Makefile): New goal.
|
|
|
|
* Makefile.in, lib/Makefile.in: Add a .c.o rule, so CFLAGS is not
|
|
so heavily loaded. It gets more easily overridable, calling make.
|
|
Reported by Jim Meyering.
|
|
|
|
* Makefile.in (dist): Get .fname from the current directory name,
|
|
instead of from version.h. I need updating many files manually,
|
|
when the version changes, version.h is just one of them.
|
|
|
|
Sat Nov 14 11:01:20 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule)
|
|
|
|
* m4.h: Remove the tag `boolean' on the enum introducing typedef
|
|
`boolean'. This tag conflicts with <sys/types.h> on SVR4.
|
|
Reported by Tom McConnell.
|
|
|
|
Fri Nov 13 00:12:50 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule)
|
|
|
|
* m4.texinfo: Correct the examples for 33.divert, 38.divnum,
|
|
39.cleardiv, which were describing missing or spurious newlines.
|
|
Modify examples 52.eval, 53.esyscmd and 54.sysval so the results
|
|
do not depend on machine word size, `/bin/false' implementation,
|
|
or `wc' output format. `make check' is more dependable, now.
|
|
|
|
* checks/check_them: Summarize the failed tests by listing their
|
|
name, at end. If none, issue `All checks successful'. Output
|
|
`Checking' instead of `Input file:'.
|
|
|
|
* checks/get_them, checks/check_them: Reindented.
|
|
|
|
* Makefile.in (dist): chmod a+r before making the tar file.
|
|
|
|
Thu Nov 12 14:42:57 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule)
|
|
|
|
* builtin.c (m4_dnl): Diagnose any parameter to `dnl'.
|
|
|
|
* input.c (next_token): Reinitialize token_buttom just after using
|
|
it as a watermark with obstack_free. Or else, a future token, big
|
|
enough for triggering reallocation of the obstack chunk, could
|
|
void the initialized value of token_buttom, later causing panic in
|
|
obstack_free. Rename token_buttom to token_bottom everywhere.
|
|
|
|
* m4.h: Before declaring errno, first include <errno.h> and
|
|
ensure that it does not define errno.
|
|
Reported by Richard Stallman.
|
|
|
|
Wed Nov 11 17:40:35 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule)
|
|
|
|
* builtin.c: Define and use DECLARE macro for builtins.
|
|
|
|
* builtin.c (m4_ifelse): Avoid any diagnostic when exactly one
|
|
argument, this is a common idiom for introducing long comments.
|
|
|
|
* builtin.c (m4_ifelse): If 3n + 2 arguments, diagnose missing
|
|
arguments. The last argument was silently ignored.
|
|
|
|
* m4.c (cmd_error): Add a missing semicolon before va_end().
|
|
