I get this on solaris2.6 in 20.4 when I click three times button1 to select a line and then (without moving the mouse) click button2 to yank the selection. I seem to remember having seen this ages ago, but only on xemacsen compiled with support for CDE. Does the 'DragMotionProto' in the backtrace refer to DnD? Oliver, any ideas?

Actually, that's not true. If you haven't done a `cvs update', a `cvs diff' isn't going to reveal changes that others have committed.

(Not sure whether there is actually code that does that). How about static strings? For example, imagine I had a string at file scope defined like this: const char * const DocString = "....."; If it is only used in the C part, would it get marked? -- Colin

We do not have pure space now but isn't that temporary? If the portable dumper is ready don't we have read-only objects again and thus the need for Vpure_uninterned_symbol_table or generalized equivalent to store the symbols these read-only objects refer to?

Byte-code interpreter error in latest 21.2 25 years, 7 months

Robert Pluim

Hi, The latest version out of CVS didn't like my .emacs anymore. I've traced it down to (require eudc), but _only_ if I have my custom-declare-variables statement before it. With -debug-init, I get either: Signaling: (wrong-type-argument number-char-or-marker-p t) eudc-set-server("vb-mail1.corpemea.baynetworks.com" ph t) load-internal("~/.eudc-options" nil nil nil nil nil) load("~/.eudc-options") byte-code("..."

According to bytecomp.el, opcode 179 is not used, and neither it nor bytecode.c have changed recently in a way that could cause this (as far as I can see, but I don't know that much about XEmacs internals). I have it trapped in gdb at the moment, so any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks Robert --

new 21.2? 25 years, 7 months

Colin Rafferty

Did I miss something? Has there been a 21.2 commit to CVS, but not announcement on xemacs-beta? More specifically, does it remove purespace altogher? Cool hack. I never was sure what we needed it for, since it is for sharing static data between processes, and most OSs are smart about COW. Anyway, the last set of messages I have, other than Vin's compilation problems, are the Perl discussion. -- Colin

21.0.67 -> 21.0 please ! 25 years, 7 months

Jan Vroonhof

Since for some reason the release process seems to be stuck could we at least have a real 21.0 on the ftp site that doens't think it is a beta. Jan

I don't know about that, but I've now done a `cvs update', and I still don't get the errors. I have no idea what I'm doing differently. Maybe Olivier will have a clue.

That would be weird, because I was able to compile correctly (with union type, even), and `cvs diff' says that I should be in sync with the repository.
