GC_stackbottom, GC_gc_no and GC_dont_gc are now deprecated. These changes
use new options in the API where possible.
Update scripts to copy the boehm_gc and libatomic_ops directories correctly.
Pass Boehm GC the correct flags for thread support
Update documentation regarding the version of Boehm GC.
runtime/mercury_wrapper.c:
Don't use the deprecated GC_dont_gc variable.
library/benchmarking.m:
Use GC_get_stackbottom() to get the bottom of stack and GC_get_gc_no()
to get the number of collections so far.
util/mkinit.c:
Do not explicitly set GC_stackbottom anymore, except on AIX where it
cannot be found automatically.
scripts/prepare_install_dir.in:
tools/bootcheck:
tools/build_srcdist:
Add some missing files present in Boehm GC 7.4.2 that wern't present
earlier and remove some old ones.
Coby and link the libatomic_ops directory correctly.
.README.in:
bindist/bindist.README:
Update documentation regarding the version of Boehm GC.
configure.ac:
Something in Boehm GC's build system has changed and we must now pass
-DGC_THREADS whenever building threadsafe versions of BOehm GC. This is now
done using the BOEHM_MISC_CFLAGS_FOR_THREADS autoconf variable, which has
been renamed to BOEHM_CFLAGS_FOR_THREADS now that it is more generally used.
Boehm GC no longer (or perhaps never did) require developers to specify the
type of threading to use, eg -DGC_LINUX_THREADS rather than -DGC_THREADS.
With the exception of win32-pthreads. We now pass -DGC_THREADS whereever
possible.
Mmake.common.in:
Rename BOEHM_MISC_CFLAGS_FOR_THREADS.
This directory contains files used to create a binary distribution of Mercury. Files that will be incorporated in the binary distribution start with `bindist.'. The other files (this README, and the Mmake file) are only used to build the distribution. To build a binary distribution, first build and install the compiler from the source distribution (see the instructions in ../INSTALL). Then just do an `mmake bindist'.
