There are other people seeing very weird crashes involving very deep traces (see for instance the eudc thread). Jan P.S. Most of these crashes involve deep levels of bytecode execution. I am wondering whether this (or a related) change triggered it. 1999-01-30 Martin Buchholz <martin(a)xemacs.org> * bytecode.c (funcall_compiled_function): Call UNBIND_TO_GCPRO instead of UNBIND_TO_GCPRO_VARIABLES_ONLY.

Re: `scroll-up-command' still broken in 21.2 under AIX 25 years

Markus Alt

Sorry for the delayed answer - had to do some "real work" yesterday. ;-) vroonhof(a)math.ethz.ch wrote: > Now we only need to find out the real problem :-).

I > have a feeling it might be 0 (which is really bad, in that case please > single step in to default_face_height_and_width to see where the 0 is > coming from)] You had the right feeling ...! After loading a file larger than the visible buffer and pressing the PgDown key, it stops at the breakpoint in the "else" branch (line 4107) and fheight has indeed a value of 0. But where does the 0 come from? Good question. I must admit that single stepping through default_face_height_and_width didn't make this clear to me. In other words: If I set a second breakpoint at the next line, i.e. if (Dynarr_length (dla) >= 1) modeline = Dynarr_atp (dla, 0)->modeline; dl = Dynarr_atp (dla, modeline); then fheight already has a value of 14 (which is my current default font size and thus correct), so it seems like default_face_height_and_width returns the correct value after its first pass. But pressing PgDown a second time still does not scroll, although one should think that fheight is non-zero now. In fact, my debugger shows a value of +804392872 when stopping again at the first breakpoint (overflow?). Continue to the 2nd breakpoint and fheight == 14 again. Don't know if this is of great help; let me know what I can do to provide any further information. > if (value > 0) > { > /* Go for partial display line scrolling.

It seems like you are on to some race condition in the new optimized byte code stuff. You need to go on hunting. Homework for today 1. Add a (debug-on-entry 'eudc-set-server) to the top your options file. Single step until you get the crash (it might be you don't get it anymore) :-( 2. Start stripping stuff from eudc-set-server until the crash disappears. Repeat for the offending functions it calls. Jan P.S. Are you compiling with any special options (pdump ?)

Note that I've just sent out a patch that fixes the problem for find-file; it can probably be fixed for calendar as well.

The configure test for X11/Intrinsic.h fails with the above installed. I haven't a clue what's wrong; the file is right there where it belongs.

Re: xemacs 21.9 advice and dired 25 years

Could someone please tell me where to find advice? The advice is in README.packages (includes a minimal recommended set). dired is in the dired package! > Could one discuss maybe the politics of what a minimal > xemacs must include? IMHO auctex, reftex etc not but dired yes. One can. However it would be more productive to make a special xemacs-<version>-all release that includes everything as in previous releases. Something like that is likely to happen before 21.2 comes out. Would that satisfy your needs? Jan

That would at least make some sense as that is basically the only special thing eudc does.. What happens if you explicitly load "eudc.el" (i.e. the uncompiled file)? Jan
