toolbar enabled-p slot broken... 19 years, 6 months

William M. Perry

Unless I'm misunderstanding the documentation. It seems that the ENABLED-P slot in the button descriptor only gets evaluated when the specifier is evaluated. I am in the midst of writing all the test cases for XEmacs/GTK and first off was making sure dynamically-enabled toolbar buttons worked. Guess what, they don't work in XEmacs 21.1.10 either. :( With this test function: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (defvar gtk-torture-test-toolbar-open-active-p t) (defvar gtk-torture-test-toolbar '([toolbar-file-icon (lambda () (setq gtk-torture-test-toolbar-open-active-p (not gtk-torture-test-toolbar-open-active-p))) gtk-torture-test-toolbar-open-active-p "Open a file"] [toolbar-folder-icon toolbar-dired t "Edit a directory"] [toolbar-disk-icon toolbar-save t "Save buffer"] [toolbar-printer-icon toolbar-print t "Print buffer"] [toolbar-cut-icon toolbar-cut t "Kill region"] [toolbar-copy-icon toolbar-copy t "Copy region"] [toolbar-paste-icon toolbar-paste t "Paste from clipboard"] [toolbar-undo-icon toolbar-undo t "Undo edit"] [toolbar-spell-icon toolbar-ispell t "Check spelling"] [toolbar-replace-icon toolbar-replace t "Search & Replace"] [toolbar-mail-icon toolbar-mail t "Read mail"] [toolbar-info-icon toolbar-info t "Info documentation"] [toolbar-compile-icon toolbar-compile t "Start a compilation"] [toolbar-debug-icon toolbar-debug t "Start a debugger"] [toolbar-news-icon toolbar-news t "Read news"] )) (defun gtk-torture-test-toolbar () (interactive) (switch-to-buffer (get-buffer-create "Toolbar testing")) (set-specifier default-toolbar gtk-torture-test-toolbar (current-buffer)) (set-specifier default-toolbar-visible-p t (current-buffer))) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you do M-x gtk-torture-test-toolbar, you will get a buffer with a toolbar that looks normal, but if you click the 'open' button, I would have expected the toolbar button to be immediately marked as disabled. But it is not until you switch buffers to another buffer and then back to the 'Toolbar testing' buffer. If this is the way things are meant to be, then the documentation in default-toolbar needs to be updated to reflect this. It makes it sound like this slot will get evaluated quite a bit. Perhaps if there was a (set-toolbar-dirty-flag position) function... but that is kind of ugly. -Bill P.

Two questions: Just out of curiosity, what is the problem with auto-revert-mode? I am using it for quite a while now (with XEmacs 21.1.7) and could not see a problem. And of course, I would be happy if those modes would be part of XEmacs. Gerd

Anders Lindgren's autorevert and follow packages 19 years, 6 months

Charles G Waldman

Anders Lindgren's Emacs page [1] has some nice Elisp hacks, unfortunately several of them do not work correctly with XEmacs. There have been some patches floating around in the mailing list for some of the problems. I'd like to make the required fixes so that follow-mode and auto-revert-mode work correctly under XEmacs, and then add these packages to the XEmacs package tree. Two questions: A) Any objections to doing so? B) Where should they be added? I'm thinking of oa/text-modes Footnotes: [1] http://www.csd.uu.se/~andersl/emacs.shtml

Anybody using pcl-cvs 1.46 with any success? 19 years, 6 months

Adrian Aichner

Hello Michael, hello All! I coming to the conclusion more and more that the new port of ftp://rum.cs.yale.edu/pub/monnier/pcl-cvs/pcl-cvs-2.9.9.tar.gz isn't really working in XEmacs, if at all. Has anybody commited a file with this pcl-cvs-version "v2_9_9" ? I have reported the ring-insert problem a few days back. Today I found that commiting files does not work. the argument to -m does not get quoted at all. How is this supposed to work at all? eg. cvs commit -m this ain't gonna work will-it.txt I just checked that our previous pcl-cvs 1.41 does quote its arguments before executing the command. Best regards, Adrian

Re: 21.2.34 crash 19 years, 6 months

It even takes care of the crash I was getting in loading up eudc-export that I previously reported about. It kind of went away in 21.2.33, came back with a vengeance in 21.2.34, but with this patch, I don't see it anymore, and it is 100% repeatable in 21.2.34. Cool! Ray

--srcdir and running-in-place 19 years, 6 months

Stephen J. Turnbull

I was building XEmacs in the source directory on several different machines, but discovered that I was not keeping the directories consistent. So I moved the sources to a network file system (Coda), and started using --srcdir. I have discovered that (1) building in the source tree, I can run src/xemacs without trouble (2) building with --srcdir=/coda/XEmacs/21.1, running src/xemacs from the build directory or /tmp/XEmacs/Builds/21.1/src/xemacs from /coda/XEmacs/21.1 gives bash-2.04$ /tmp/XEmacs/Builds/21.1/src/xemacs WARNING: Couldn't find obvious defaults for: doc-directory exec-directory lisp-directory Perhaps some directories don't exist, or the XEmacs executable, /tmp/XEmacs/Builds/21.1/src/xemacs is in a strange place? (3) building with --srcdir=/coda/XEmacs/21.1, doing make install, and then running-in-place works fine, either cwd This is bad, obviously. It's going to cause hard to diagnose problems with docstring skew a lot, and similar problems with other stuff from those directories more rarely I would suppose. I guess this is related to Martin's plaint about "can't move hierarchies," but at least to me this --srcdir problem was not an obvious consequence of Martin's observation. -- University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences Tel/fax: +81 (298) 53-5091 _________________ _________________ _________________ _________________ What are those straight lines for?
