Branches: main
Add support for initialisation predicates to be called before main/2 is
invoked. The new directive is `:- initialise initpredname.'
NEWS:
Mention the new functionality.
compiler/export.m:
`:- pragma export' also adds a C function declaration in the
generated C wrapper code to avoid C compiler warnings about
missing declarations.
compiler/hlds_module.m:
Added a new user_init_preds field to the module_info to
record the preds named in `initialise' directives.
Added predicates to access and update the new field.
The exported names are generated automatically.
compiler/llds.m:
Added a new field cfile_num_user_inits to c_file structure.
compiler/llds_out.m:
Add code to include the `REQUIRED_INIT initpredexportname' lines
in the comment section of the generated C that is recognised
by mkinit.
compiler/make_hlds_passes.m:
Handle the new `initialise' directives.
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
Make sure the list of user defined init pred export names is passed to
the C code construction preds.
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:
Handle the output of `initialise' directives.
compiler/module_qual.m:
compiler/modules.m:
compiler/recompilation.check.m:
compiler/recompilation.version.m:
Handle the new `initialise' item.
compiler/prog_data.m:
Add a new `initialise(sym_name)' item.
compiler/prog_io.m:
Add code to parse `initialise' directives.
compiler/prog_mode.m:
Add di_mode pred and func.
compiler/transform_llds.m:
Handle the extra field in c_file.
doc/reference_manual.texi:
Update the operator table in the reference manual.
Document the new `initialise' directive.
library/list.m:
Added index[01]_of_first_occurrence preds and
det_index[01]_of_first_occurrence funcs. I've often
had a need for these and they are used in looking up
initprednames in the new module_info field.
library/ops.m:
Add `initialise' as a prefix operator.
runtime/mercury_wrapper.c:
runtime/mercury_wrapper.h:
Add a new exported variable, MR_address_of_init_modules_required.
Call the function pointed to by this variable at the right point
during module initialisation.
test/hard_coded/Mmakefile:
test/hard_coded/initialise_decl.exp:
test/hard_coded/initialise_decl.m:
test/invalid/Mmakefile:
test/invalid/bad_initialise_decl.err_exp:
test/invalid/bad_initialise_decl.m:
Added test cases.
util/mkinit.c:
Now always checks C files for extra inits (previously you had to
explicitly supply the -x flag).
