Reanimating verilog-mode
15 years, 3 months
Marcus Harnisch
Hi all
Verilog-mode in our prog-modes package dates back to 2005. Since I
tend to use the upstream version, I never noticed.
I'd love to integrate the latest version (and monitor future upstream
changes -- in case you would ask, Stephen).
It looks like there are only few package specific changes in the code
but unfortunately, I don't have access to the original sources from
which the package has been created to see what exactly has been
changed.
Regards
Marcus

Hang in 'make check'

Aidan,
In a mule build from the latest hg sources (see Installation file
below), query-coding-tests.el is hanging. Here's the tail of my 'make
check' output:

[Bug: 21.5-b28] Found cause of --with-union-type error
15 years, 3 months
robert delius royar
The error appears to be caused by a bug in the way autoconf deals with
WORDS_BIGENDIAN when configure runs on a G5.
The resulting src/config.h from autoconf 2.63 places
/* #undef WORDS_BIGENDIAN */
in src/config.h whereas 2.62- and 2.61-created configurse add
#define WORDS_BIGENDIAN 1
to src/config.h
When a 2.62 (or 2.61) created configure runs, it says
checking whether byte ordering is bigendian... yes
but 2.63 script says
checking whether byte ordering is bigendian... universal
I have no idea whether those are different answers, but they seem to be.
This appears to cause a conflict when --with-union-type is defined from
configure. I recreated configure with autoconf (version 2.61 and 2.62)
and found that WORDS_BIGENDIAN was defined, and the resulting make
worked even with unions used for Lisp_Object.
Could this point to the potential for even more subtle bugs
Here is the configuration that works fine when autoconf 2.62 is used:
./configure '--with-mule' '--with-widgets=athena' '--with-athena=next'
'--with-dialogs=athena' '--with-scrollbars=lucid' '--without-debug'
'--without-error-checking' '--with-x11'

Please do so yourself. Given that I can’t reproduce the bug and thus can’t
test the change, there’s every chance it would be a worthless commit from
me.

I don’t see the problem when I build with your configure line, and given
that, I don’t anticipate finding a fix myself. Do you have perl installed?
Does perl -V:installprivlib give anything sensible from the shell? Was it
actually the initialisation of describe-char-unicodedata-file that hanged?
descr-text.el is not dumped, this code won’t be executed for most users most
of the time.

Yes, that. In an ideal world #'file-newer-than-file-p would throw a
file-error if either argument didn’t exist or the corresponding metadata
couldn’t be read. Doing this now would be introducing a needless
incompatibility though, it’s much more realistic to live with it.

Well, we have to use one or the other, and using the .elc has the advantage
that we can pass the path on to make-docfile without further processing.
make-docfile.c much prefers .elc files, since the docstrings are
automatically generated in a format it can read.

I don’t. I used to.

Fwd: xemacs-base now required to build
15 years, 3 months
Vin Shelton
My first attempt got spam-trapped...
---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: "Vin Shelton" <acs(a)alumni.princeton.edu>
Date: Dec 28, 2008 10:36 PM
Subject: xemacs-base now required to build
To: "XEmacs Beta" <xemacs-beta(a)xemacs.org>
Greetings -
In the process of generating the 21.4.22 release, I realized that the
xemacs-base package is now required to build xemacs-21.4, because of these
lines in lisp/autoload.el:
(defvar autoload-make-autoload-operators
'(defun define-skeleton defmacro define-derived-mode define-generic-mode
easy-mmode-define-minor-mode easy-mmode-define-global-mode
define-minor-mode defun* defmacro*)
"`defun'-like operators that use `autoload' to load the library.")
(defvar autoload-make-autoload-complex-operators
'(easy-mmode-define-minor-mode easy-mmode-define-global-mode
define-minor-mode)
"`defun'-like operators to macroexpand before using `autoload'.")
easy-mmode comes from xemacs-base, and if you try to build xemacs-21.4
without an xemacs-base package, you get this error:
Building finder database ...(done)
rm -f lisp/auto-autoloads.el
/home/acs/xemacs-21.4-2008-12-28/src/xemacs -batch -no-autoloads \
-l autoload -f batch-update-directory lisp
Cannot open load file: easy-mmode
xemacs exiting
.
make: *** [lisp/auto-autoloads.el] Error 255
21.5 doesn't have this problem because there's a copy of easy-mmode.el in
lisp.
What do you think is the right solution to this? Should we accept the
limitation that xemacs-base is required in order to build 21.4 and document
it somehow in INSTALL? (... patches welcome). Should I copy a version of
easy-mmode.el into lisp/? (Yuck)
Please send your thoughts to the list.
Regards,
Vin
