elementary vc question: how to calculate the version string
15 years, 9 months
Uwe Brauer
Hello
This drives me crazy, the modline of some files are so overloaded that I
cannot see the version number of a file under vc control.
In earlier vc version that was easy to know
(vc-state buffer-file-name)
Was your friend, this function is gone, and I don't know what is his
substitute. I tried to debug vc-next-action and the like but without any
result.
Anybody can help me?

I know my first patch in that time period didn’t work for you. I don’t know
whether you tested the second patch.

No.

Okay.
Please check whether the attached patch works for you out of the box. I am
not certain that it works on current XEmacs Carbon, though.

This is possibly an issue for us since Mike likes 2.61...

I don't know. What I'm trying to build is from XEmacs CVS, clean export of
the whole "packages" tree using the tag "sumo-2009-02-17".
xemacs-packages/auctex/Makefile has "AUTHOR_VERSION = 11.84".

As noted above, the texinfo I'm using is 4.11. But based on other discussion
in this thread I suppose that's not the issue.

RE: [Bug: 21.4.22] Sporadic crash entering a group with Gnus

Goldberg, David S. writes:

I think this actually takes a Lisp expression, such as a symbol (eg,
"codepoint" from the backtrace produced by "lbt").
To print a Lisp_Object whose C address you know as a C struct, use
"pobj". I think you don't need the cast. So
(gdb) pobj 140737322320744
should give you something sensible. If pobj errors because
"Lisp_Type_Char" is undefined, you've been bitten by a GCC bug-or-
optimization-YMMV. In src/.gdbinit in the build directory, near the
definition
set $Lisp_Type_Int = -2
add the definition
set $Lisp_Type_Char = 2
and do a global substitution of "$Lisp_Type_Char" for
"Lisp_Type_Char". Then "source .gdbinit" (you'll need to give the
full path to .gdbinit from gdb's current directory; if you started in
the src/ directory of the build tree just ".gdbinit" should work
though), and pobj should work.
I need to do day job work and will look at the traces later. In the
meantime, that may help get a little more information.

reporting nested forms
15 years, 9 months
Andreas Röhler
Hi,
IMHO a routine detecting nested forms is needed - for
all kind of things which have a start and a end.
Implemented a kind of this in sh-beg-end.el.
Such a form should take start and end as arguments,
then report nesting levels and positions of beginnings
and ends.
Maybe it exists already? Then sh-beg-end should use it,
otherwise I'm going to write it.
Cheers
Andreas

Ah. That's right. Try the same thing with "print" instead of "ldp".
Probably it should have been "print" in the first place.

Well, you could always run xemacs under gdb. For me there is no
noticable performance impact, but I often get much better stack
traces, and ldp (eval and print a Lisp expression) and lbt (Lisp back
trace) work because the process is still live, just suspended.
