Hi all, I've recently started building with clang, which indeed does give nicer error messages than GCC (at least up to GCC v4.4). However, it also gives an annoying warning about the extensible struct idiom: struct Lisp_Vector { NORMAL_LISP_OBJECT_HEADER header; long size; Lisp_Object contents[1]; } where we allocate a larger buffer to hold our Lisp_Vector, then populate contents[] with more objects than it is declared to hold. Like this: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ /playpen/src/XEmacs/xemacs/src/frame.c:2903:28: warning: array index of '1' indexes past the end of an array (that contains 1 elements) [-Warray-bounds] Lisp_Object face_prop = XVECTOR_DATA (prop)[1]; ^ ~ In file included from /playpen/src/XEmacs/xemacs/src/frame.c:366: /playpen/src/XEmacs/xemacs/src/lisp.h:2709:25: note: instantiated from: #define XVECTOR_DATA(s) vector_data (XVECTOR (s)) ^ /playpen/src/XEmacs/xemacs/src/lisp.h:2708:24: note: instantiated from: #define vector_data(v) ((v)->contents) ^ /playpen/src/XEmacs/xemacs/src/lisp.h:2695:15: note: array 'contents' declared here Lisp_Object contents[1]; ^ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Is there an idiom for this that won't offend clang? Or should I turn off -Warray-bounds for clang? _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta

shell terminal is not fully functional, octave, term 12 years, 6 months

Uwe Brauer

Hello I am trying to switch from Matlab to Octave and octave-mode.el allows me to use it from Xemacs; I already contacted the maintainers about the following problem, but did not receive any feedback so far. The problem is connected with the shell buffer in Xemacs. In the so called inferior octave mode I use the help command, say help deconv I obtain help deconv WARNING: terminal is not fully functional^M ^M- (press RETURN) And the whole *Octave Inferior* buffer is un usable. I presume it has to do with the fact that the "shell" command is using a simplified terminal. I tried to do the same by not starting the octave inferior shell but M-x shell octave help deconv And got the same result. Then I tried M-x term but this is much worse the prompt is distorted and when I executed octave *nothing* happened. Anybody can help?

Re: Need help for a hg push 12 years, 6 months

In this case, since he's committed already, updating to the other head will do the Wrong Thing. So he should just merge and then push. But in the future, I think that (a) for Norbert "hg pull -u" should DTRT, and (b) if multiple heads happen anyway and it's not obvious why (ie, another package maintainer committed a new patch before Norbert could respond to the first one, in which case pull and merge == hg fetch *is* the right thing), we need to figure out why. _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta

Re: How to make a package for XEmaacs 12 years, 6 months

steven Mitchell

My son Byrel and I have made three programs that we want to make into packages for distributing with the XEmacs packaging system: an easy way to change buffer colors, an implementation of icon themes, and thirdly, a CNC major mode with a lot of code(200k?) for editing CNC G-code machine files for different machine tools. He'll be home from grad school for a bit next month and I am trying to get things ready so we can make and upload the packages then. I can find descriptions of the package system, how to use it to update your packages etc, but I am not finding a step by step list of directions to make some lisp code and some documentation into a package. Is there such a list, and if not, where do I go to learn how to make a package? I would appreciate any advice, or pointers to documentation that anyone can give. Also, is there an approval/review process for packages? Assuming I get them made in some way or another, where is it appropriate to upload them? I don't think I have write access to anything that I know of and expect I won't get everything right the first time around.

XEmacs source code + packages have moved to bitbucket 12 years, 6 months

Michael Sperber

We've been getting our source-code repo services from Alioth; its service has deteriorated to the point of making a move necessary: So, from now on, the "master" repositories for XEmacs and its packages will reside on Bitbucket. We're taking this opportunity to also move the packages from CVS on Alioth to Mercurial on Bitbucket. Here's what you need to know: * Pointing your existing XEmacs repo at bitbucket In your existing repo, edit .hg/hgrc to contain this: [paths] default = https://bitbucket.org/xemacs/xemacs If you have commit access, you should use: [paths] default = ssh://hg＠bitbucket.org/xemacs/xemacs * Checking out a fresh XEmacs repo Do this: hg clone https://bitbucket.org/xemacs/xemacs or, if you have commit access: hg clone ssh://hg＠bitbucket.org/xemacs/xemacs * Checking out the packages Do this: hg clone https://bitbucket.org/xemacs/xemacs-packages or, if you have commit access: hg clone ssh://hg＠bitbucket.org/xemacs/xemacs-packages Note: You need at least Mercurial 1.3 for this, preferably a later version, as all the individual packages reside in subrepositories. * Getting push access Get an account on bitbucket.org. Send e-mail to Mike Sperber <mike(a)xemacs.org> informing him of the account name, and what exactly you need access for. * Notes on the packages subrepositories The packages repository is organized as the xemacs-packages "master" repository and one subrepository per package. This means that each revision of xemacs-packages contains references to specific revisions of the subrepositories. More info on subrepositories is available as the output of "hg help subrepos" or here: http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/Subrepository If you're working on an individual package, just run "hg commit" *within the directory of that package* and also run "hg push" from there. Then tell Norbert Koch <viteno(a)xemacs.org> about it (as usual), who will make sure that the set of packages referenced from "xemacs-packages" is consistent and push from there. -- Cheers =8-} Mike Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://lists.xemacs.org/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
