mailing list archives from June 2018.
COPYING.LIB:
Add a special linking exception to the LGPL.
*:
Update references to COPYING.LIB.
Clean up some minor errors that have accumulated in copyright
messages.
This file-specific setting will override a default setting of expandtabs
in $HOME/.vimrc.
*/Makefile:
*/Mmakefile:
As above.
tests/hard_coded/.gitignore:
Don't ignore the purity subdir. This ignore must have been left over
from when purity.m was a test in hard_coded, not hard_coded/purity,
and it ignored an executable, not a directory.

Fix a problem where different packages in the `extras' distribution
were being installed in different directories when you specified
INSTALL_PREFIX in the Mmake.params file. Some honoured the INSTALL_PREFIX
setting, some appended "/extras", and some ignored it completely.
Also, add `clean' and `realclean' targets for the extras directory hierarchy,
and fix a few other minor bugs.
extras/lazy_evaluation/Mmakefile:
Include Mmake.params, which previously wasn't included at all
in this file.
extras/logged_output/Mmakefile:
extras/odbc/Mmakefile:
extras/quickcheck/Mmakefile:
Append "/extras" to INSTALL_PREFIX, which previously wasn't done
at all in these directories.
extras/cgi/Mmakefile:
extras/complex_numbers/Mmakefile:
extras/concurrency/Mmakefile:
extras/curs/Mmakefile:
extras/curses/Mmakefile:
extras/dynamic_linking/Mmakefile:
extras/moose/Mmakefile:
extras/posix/Mmakefile:
Move the line `INSTALL_PREFIX := $(INSTALL_PREFIX/extras)'
to before the include of Mmake.params, so as not to override
the user's setting (only override the default setting).
extras/Mmakefile:
extras/concurrency/Mmakefile:
Add `clean' and `realclean' targets.
extras/posix/Mmakefile:
Add MGNUCFLAGS = --no-ansi, since this is needed on some systems.
extras/quickcheck/Mmakefile:
Add "depend", "all", and "install" targets.
Ensure that the "check" target runs the test program.
extras/quickcheck/qcheck.m:
Set the exit status to non-zero if a test fails.
extras/references/Mmakefile:
Adjust the setting of LIBGRADES to account for the fact that
$(GRADE) is no longer implicitly included in $(LIBGRADES).
Estimated hours taken: 2
Branches: main
Add appropriate infrastructure to support doing `mmake depend && mmake
&& mmake install' in the `extras' directory, and having it automatically
install and build as much as possible.
extras/Mmakefile:
New file.
extras/cgi/Mmakefile:
Delete bogus reference to `ALL_LIBGRADES' and `mercury-config'.
extras/complex_numbers/Mmakefile:
extras/concurrency/Mmakefile:
extras/concurrency/concurrency.m:
extras/curses/Mmakefile:
extras/dynamic_linking/Mmakefile:
extras/lazy_evaluation/Mmakefile:
extras/lex/Mmakefile:
extras/moose/Mmakefile:
extras/xml/Mmakefile:
Add rules for `mmake install'.
extras/references/scoped_update.m:
Add macro guard around typedef in `c_header_code'.
extras/curs/Mmakefile:
extras/curses/Mmakefile:
Define MERCURY_BOOTSTRAP_H, to avoid name clash on `bool'
that is caused by our bootstrap code in runtime/Merucry.h.
extras/curs/curs.m:
Add `promise_pure' declarations for all pure procedures.
XXX Should this be needed? These predicates all take
io__state arguments.

Optionally test the extras directory during bootchecks.
tools/bootcheck
Add an option, -e, for testing the extras directory. Rename the
-T/--test-only option as -n/--no-bootcheck, since it does not prevent
the testing of the extras.
Bootcheck only test the subdirectories in extras which have an
Mmakefile and which can be tested in all grades and in all setups.
extras/*/Mmakefile:
Updates to include extras/Mmake.params if it exists (to get the
parameters, including grades, of the bootcheck) and to add a check
target, which in most cases does not do anything yet (which means
that the only testing we do is checking that the program compiles
all right). Making "mmake check" do something meaningful will be
up to the authors of the various subdirectories involved.
In many cases, add .PHONY annotations on the relevant targets,
and copyright notices.
extras/aditi/NOBOOTTEST:
Prevent the automatic testing of the aditi subdirectory from
bootcheck, since this can be done only on a machine with Aditi
installed.
extras/aditi/NOBOOTTEST:
Prevent the automatic testing of the aditi subdirectory from
bootcheck, since this can be done only on a machine with Aditi
installed.
extras/aditi/NOBOOTTEST:
Prevent the automatic testing of this subdirectory from bootcheck,
since this can be done only on a machine with Aditi installed.
extras/dynamic_linking/NOBOOTTEST:
Prevent the automatic testing of this subdirectory from bootcheck,
since this can be done only on a machine with the dl library already
installed.
extras/logged_out/NOBOOTTEST:
Prevent the automatic testing of this subdirectory from bootcheck,
since this can be done only in grades with the right kind of stream
support.
extras/odbc/NOBOOTTEST:
Prevent the automatic testing of this subdirectory from bootcheck,
since this can be done only on a machine with ODBC installed.
extras/references/NOBOOTTEST:
extras/trailed_update/NOBOOTTEST:
Prevent the automatic testing of this subdirectory from bootcheck,
since this can be done only in trailing grades.
extras/*/.nocopyright:
Mention the NOBOOTTEST files in the relevant .nocopyright files.
Estimated hours taken: 0.75
Use sub-modules to package up the modules in extras/complex_numbers
into a single module.
extras/complex_numbers/complex_lib.m:
extras/complex_numbers/complex_numbers.m:
Rename complex_lib.m as complex_numbers.m,
and modify it to use sub-modules.
extras/complex_numbers/*.m:
extras/complex_numbers/tests/complex_test.m:
extras/complex_numbers/samples/fft.m:
Add `complex_numbers:' to all of the `:- module'
and `:- import_module' declarations.
extras/complex_numbers/Mmakefile:
extras/complex_numbers/tests/Mmakefile:
extras/complex_numbers/samples/Mmakefile:
Modify to reflect the renaming from `complex_lib' to
`complex_numbers'.
