Zoltan Somogyi b7e55aa8ad Enforce namespace cleanliness in the library and browser directories
Estimated hours taken: 6
Branches: main

Enforce namespace cleanliness in the library and browser directories
as well as in the runtime and trace directories.

Mmake.common.in:
	Move the rules check_namespace here (they used to be in the Mmakefiles
	of the runtime and trace directories), together with the variables they
	need. Generalize them to also handle the needs of the browser, library
	and bytecode directories. The former two in particular need the
	ability to check automatically generated .mh files.

	Make all the rules used by check_namespace conditional on a macro
	that is defined by the Makefiles in all the directories that are
	checked for namespace cleanliness.

trace/Mmakefile:
runtime/Mmakefile:
	Replace the old rules for check_namespace, which are now in
	../Mmake.common.in, with the macros needed to control their behavior.

bytecode/Mmakefile:
	Add the macros needed to control the behavior of the rules for
	check_namespace.

	Move the lists of files to the start, before the include of
	../Mmake.common.

browser/Mmakefile:
library/Mmakefile:
	Add the macros needed to control the behavior of the rules for
	check_namespace.

runtime/RESERVED_MACRO_NAMES:
	Update comments, and delete obsolete exceptions.

browser/RESERVED_MACRO_NAMES:
library/RESERVED_MACRO_NAMES:
	New files to contain the exceptions from the naming scheme.

tools/bootcheck:
	Invoke "mmake check_namespace" in the library and browser directories
	as well as the runtime and the trace directories. Perform the
	invocation before we delete the object files we are checking for
	cleanliness.

	Clean up object files in all stage2 directories, not just the library,
	as soon as we can.

library/array.m:
library/builtin.m:
library/io.m:
library/time.m:
	Fix namespace violations.

This directory holds the source code for the Mercury bytecode
utilities. `mdis' is the Mercury bytecode disassembler.
`mbi' is the Mercury bytecode interpreter.
`libmbi' is the same thing, minus main().

All exported symbols defined in modules in this directory should be prefixed
with `MB_', for "Mercury Bytecode", to avoid clashes with names defined in
other packages.
