| | | | | | | With this new probe, requested by rafl, we could start building perl as it would be built on OSs like AIX and Windows and actually test visibility of the API and thus early detect if tests would fail on these restrictive OSs

* Add blank lines around Configure's duplicate extension diagnostic.Nicholas Clark2012-01-311-1/+3
| | | | | | | The diagnostic message containing the duplicate extension did not stand out, particularly given that the immediately previous output is a very long line of found extensions. So add blank lines on either to make it easier to spot.
* Configure now aborts with a diagnostic if it detects a duplicate extension.Nicholas Clark2012-01-311-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During the development process, if an extension module changes dual-life status it can move between ext/, dist/ and cpan/. If one uses git pull in a built tree across such a change, one can end up with the build tree in a messy state from which the 'distclean' target can't recover. Configure will spot both the old and new directories, and may wrongly categorise the extension as non-XS, resulting in obscure build failures after miniperl is build. In the general case, the "old" directory might contain files the user wants to keep, so it's not safe to automatically delete it. The only safe option is to ask the user to resolve the problem, hence with this change, if Configure detects such a situation it aborts with a diagnostic suggesting what to do. This isn't a problem that affects released tarballs.

* Teach Configure about "procselfexe" on Solaris and NetBSDNicholas Clark2011-09-281-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | Configure would already find /proc/self/exe on NetBSD, where /proc/self is a symlink to /proc/curproc. However, the revised probe avoids the extra symlink traversal. Configure did not previously probe for the relevant path on Solaris, /proc/self/path/a.out Rename the description of /proc/curproc/file from BSD to FreeBSD, as it seems that of the "big 3" BSDs, only FreeBSD uses this path. Based on a patch from Johann 'Myrkraverk' Oskarsson.
* In Configure, refactor the test for procselfexe into a loop.Nicholas Clark2011-09-271-15/+14
| | | | | This removes code duplication, and makes it easy to add more variants. Based on a patch from Johann 'Myrkraverk' Oskarsson.
* Where available, use _NSGetExecutablePath() to make $^X absolute.Nicholas Clark2011-09-271-0/+102
| | | | | | | | | In Configure, check whether _NSGetExecutablePath() can be used to find the absolute pathname of the executable. If so, set usensgetexecutablepath in config.sh and USE_NSGETEXECUTABLEPATH in config.h. If this is set, then use this approach in S_set_caret_X() to canonicalise $^X as an absolute path. This approach works on OS X, and possible on other platforms that use dyld.
* Where available, use sysctl() with KERN_PROC_PATHNAME to make $^X absolute.Nicholas Clark2011-09-271-0/+117
| | | | | | | | | | In Configure, check whether sysctl() and KERN_PROC_PATHNAME can be used to find the absolute pathname of the executable. If so, set usekernprocpathname in config.sh and USE_KERN_PROC_PATHNAME in config.h. If this is set, then use this approach in S_set_caret_X() to canonicalise $^X as an absolute path. This approach works on (at least) FreeBSD, and doesn't rely on the /proc filesystem existing, or /proc/curproc/file being present.

| | | | | | | | | On some Solaris systems, <stdbool.h> is present, but will give an error if used by a compiler that is not sufficiently c99-compliant. Check for this by including <stdbool.h> and trying to compile a short program that uses bool. Signed-off-by: H.Merijn Brand <h.m.brand@xs4all.nl>

* Probe for <stdbool.h>, and if found use it in handy.hNicholas Clark2011-09-161-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | This means that the core uses the compiler's bool type if one exists. This avoids potential problems of clashes between perl's own implementation of bool and the compiler's bool type, which otherwise occur when one attempts to include headers which in turn include <stdbool.h>.

(Note: Your system may actually require something like cc -g2. Check your man pages for cc(1) and also any hint file for your system.) However, we *aren't* compliant with our documentation, as currently -Doptimize=-g (or anything containing -g) still causes -DDEBUGGING to be added to the C flags.

| | | | | | | The format of the .patch file is no longer an integer change number, and generates an error when processed by Configure. As .patch is now handled by make_patchnum.pl, the attached patch removes processing of .patch from Configure.

* Add a Configure probe for static inline.Andy Dougherty2010-07-221-0/+110
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables Configure to probe for C99-style 'static inline'. (That is, functions may be inlined, but will not be externally visible.) The initial idea is that some common code in messy macros inside headers might be simplified using inline functions. If the compiler does not support 'static inline', then a plain 'static' is used instead, along with the consequent implications of a function call (though the compiler may optimize away the function call and inline the function anyway). In either case, you simply use PERL_STATIC_INLINE. This patch does not *use* this facility at all yet. It is merely a Configure patch to make the facility availble for others to experiment with. VMS and Windows files will still need to be manually updated. Finally, before actually converting anything to inline functions, please try to carefully evaluate the performance implications of any proposed changes. Compilers vary in what they will and will not convert to inline functions, so it's worth proceeding slowly and carefully. This patch results from a single new metaconfig unit, d_static_inline.U, which I will separately upload to the metaconfig repository.
* [PATCH] Fix d_u32align probe on ARMH.Merijn Brand2010-06-231-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From: Marc Pignat <marc@pignat.org> Date: Wed, 23 Jun 2010 15:38:37 +0200 My proposed solution is to use the 'volatile' keyword to make sure the compiler will really do the job. Please note that it does not work with -O3, but the configure script compile with -O2, so this should be fine. At this time I've only tested the Configure scripts, which now detects the align problem on ARM. I'm compiling the whole thing to check if the md5 bug goes away! I hope this will fix this *5 years* old bug, and the upstream bug as well! Signed-off-by: H.Merijn Brand <h.m.brand@xs4all.nl>

| | | | | | | | | | | | With commit 1725f55ba78fb58489ea39e2bc0cc1faffd32275 IO-Compress now puts its .pm files in lib rather than archlib for perls later than 5.11.1, so the core can now do likewise given that blead will next be released as 5.11.2, i.e. revert the Configure part of 4cc80fc4cbbd82e20f7b14b68abb53d552076022 and revert f4a6a713802da1b781d7108503156fa3a0fe219e. This change should not be merged into 5.10.x because IO-Compress will continue to put its .pm files into archlib for the sake of anyone upgrading a 5.10.x installation in-place.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Date: Tue, 27 Oct 2009 01:29:40 +0000 From: Zefram <zefram@fysh.org> To: perl5-porters@perl.org Subject: bareword sub lookups Attached is a patch that changes how the tokeniser looks up subroutines, when they're referenced by a bareword, for prototype and const-sub purposes. Formerly, it has looked up bareword subs directly in the package, which is contrary to the way the generated op tree looks up the sub, via an rv2cv op. The patch makes the tokeniser generate the rv2cv op earlier, and dig around in that. The motivation for this is to allow modules to hook the rv2cv op creation, to affect the name->subroutine lookup process. Currently, such hooking affects op execution as intended, but everything goes wrong with a bareword ref where the tokeniser looks at some unrelated CV, or a blank space, in the package. With the patch in place, an rv2cv hook correctly affects the tokeniser and therefore the prototype-based aspects of parsing. The patch also changes ck_subr (which applies the argument context and checking parts of prototype behaviour) to handle subs referenced by an RV const op inside the rv2cv, where formerly it would only handle a gv op inside the rv2cv. This is to support the most likely kind of modified rv2cv op. [This commit includes the Makefile.PL for XS-APITest-KeywordRPN missing from the original patch, as well as updates to perldiag.pod and a MANIFEST sort]
