| * src/builtin.c (builtin_init): Merge in functionality from |
| previous prefix_all_buitins function, while making entries in the |

| |
| * src/freeze.c (reload_frozen_state): Add a useless `break;', |

| * builtin.c (substitute): Use \& to represent this part of the |
| string which was matched by the whole regexp, instead of |
| representing the whole string. Any usage of \0 issues a warning |
| and acts like \&, it will disappear in some subsequent release. |
| |
| Mon Jun 27 14:24:23 1994 François Pinard (pinard@icule) |
| |
| * m4.c: Complete prototype for forwarded declaration of usage. |

| eval_t * instead of int *. Same for local variable v2 in dyadic |
| functions. Same for result in exp_term. |
| * builtin.c (m4_eval): Declare value as eval_t instead of int. |
| (ntoa): Declare value as eval_t instead of int. Declare uvalue as |

| * macro.c: Complete the prototypes of forwarded expand_macro and |
| expand_token. |

| Reported by Tom McConnell. |
| |
| Sat Jun 25 00:10:05 1994 François Pinard (pinard@icule) |
| |
| * aclocal.m4: Replace FP_PROTOTYPES by AC_HAVE_PROTOTYPES, |
| following an idea from Brook G. Milligan. AC_HAVE_PROTOTYPES |

| the preprocessor; by not being subject to CFLAGS, this was |
| discouraging those flags asking for ANSI compilation. |
| * acconfig.h: Document HAVE_PROTOTYPES. |

| name. |
| Reported by Krste Asanovic and Pete Chown. |
| |
| [These modifs all depend upon ENABLE_CHANGEWORD] |

| Things like `eval(08)' used to return 0 with no diagnostic. |
| |
| * m4.h: Capitalize first letter of all macro arguments in |
| definitions. |
| |
| * m4.c: Declare warning_status, initialize it to 0. Add new |

| EXIT_FAILURE instead. |
| * m4.h: Declare external warning_status. Define EXIT_SUCCESS and |
| EXIT_FAILURE if not otherwise done by header files. |
| * m4.c: Delete declarations for EXIT_SUCCESS and EXIT_FAILURE. |

| that Jim developped stackovf.c on a 486 running SVR4.0 (ESIX), and |
| also tested it on a Sun Sparc workstation running SunOS 4.x. |
| |
| * format.c (format): When not HAVE_EFGCVT, m4 was failing the |
| 49.format check, abusing a `union values' argument with sprintf |
| without selecting the proper field. Now, save the formatting type |
| first, delaying the fetch of the corresponding argument. |
| Reported by Joseph E. Sacco and Tom Quinn. |
| |
| * format.c (format): Remove const from char *fmt declaration when |
| not HAVE_EFGCVT, because a NUL may be forced into it. |
| |

| Reported by Joseph E. Sacco. |
| |
| * Regenerate configure using Autoconf 1.11, this corrects a |

| * builtin.c, output.c: Use errno as second parameter to error, |
| instead of using syserr() with %s. |

| INTERNAL_ERROR*. |
| * Makefile.in (_m4.c): Do not adjust ansi2knr output for va_alist, |
| this is not needed anymore. |
| |
| * m4.h: Declare extern FILE *debug. Add DEBUG_PRINT{1,3} and |
| DEBUG_MESSAGE{,1,2} macros. Delete declarations for debug_print |

| Sat Dec 19 08:21:34 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule) |
| |
| * Release 1.0.3 |
| This is still a beta release for the future GNU m4 version 1.1. |
| |
| * lib/alloca.c: New, from elsewhere. |
| * lib/Makefile.in: Distribute it. Define and use $(ALLOCA). |
| |
| * m4.h: Do not define index/rindex if already defined. If |
| FALSE/TRUE are already defined, do not redefine them, but merely |
| define boolean typedef to int. |
| |
| * Makefile.in: Use $(DEFS) while compiling ansi2knr. |
| * ansi2knr.c: Rewrite #ifdef HAVE_STRING_H || STDC_HEADERS, |
| because some C compilers do not like connectives with #ifdef. |
| * m4.h: Define `volatile' only if __GNUC__, instead of once for |
| __GNUC__ and once for __STDC__. |
| * lib/regex.h: Leave const alone, AC_CONST will take care of it. |
| |
| * checks/Makefile.in: Use .all_stamp instead of $(CHECKS) for |
| Makefile dependencies. Without it, make keeps destroying and |
| remaking $(CHECKS) in a loop (why?). Distribute .all_stamp. |
| |
| * m4.h, m4.c, builtin.c, output.c: Change all divertion/DIVERTION |
| to diversion/DIVERSION, this was a spelling error. |
| |
| * m4.c: Declare version[], remove #include "version.h". |
| * version.h: Deleted. |
| * Makefile.in: Remove references to version.h. |
| |
| * output.c (shipout_text): Centralize all `#line NUM ["FILE"]' |
| production, by using a simpler and more robust algorithm. This |
| solves the problem of synclines sometimes written in the middle of |
| an output line. Delete sync_line() and output_lines variable. |
| * m4.h: Remove sync_line prototype and output_lines declaration. |
| * input.c (next_char), output.c (shipout_text): Remove references |
| to output_lines. |
| * input.c (push_file, pop_file): Merely put the value -1 in |
| output_current_line instead of calling sync_line, for delaying a |
| single `#line NUM FILE' before next output line. Do not test |
| for sync_output, because this is unnecessary clutter. |
| * output.c (make_divertion, insert_divertion): Idem. |
| * input.c: Rename must_advance_line to start_of_input_line, for |
| consistency. |
| |
| * debug.c (trace_header): Select a new debug line format, which |
| better complies with GNU standards for formatting error messages. |
| With option `-dfl', M-x next-error might be used on the output. |
| * m4.c (vmesg): Adjust format of error output to GNU standards. |
| * m4.texinfo: Adjust examples for `make check' to work. |
| |
| * m4.h, builtin.c, debug.c, input.c, macro.c, path.c: Use upper |
| case for enum debug_info constants, which were all lower case. |
| |
| * builtin.c (m4_regexp, m4_patsubst): Use re_search instead of |
| re_search_2. |
| * lib/regex.[ch]: Use new version from textutils 1.3.6, with some |
| collected patches. I tried a few times using newer regex.[ch], it |
| mysteriously stopped aborting with this one. Insecure feeling... |
| * lib/Makefile.in: Distribute regex.[ch].old, just in case! |
| |
| Fri Dec 18 11:08:03 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule) |
| |
| * m4.c: Change `--no-warnings' to `--silent'. |
| Reported by David MacKenzie. |
| |
| * m4.c: Put all M4OPTS code upon IMPLEMENT_M4OPTS control, and |
| leave it off for now. See comment in m4.c for justification. |
| Reported by David MacKenzie. |
| |
| * configure.in: Replace AC_USG by AC_HAVE_HEADERS(string.h). |
| * m4.h, ansi2knr.c, lib/regex.h: Replace USG by HAVE_STRING_H. |
| |
| * Makefile.in: Add a new `info' goal. Use macro MAKEINFO. |
| |
| * Makefile.in: Ensure recursive cleaning is done before local |
| cleaning for all clean goals. |
| |
| * builtin.c (ntoa): Ensure the value is always interpreted as a |
| signed quantity, whatever the radix is. |
| |
| Wed Nov 18 07:57:19 1992 Jim Meyering (meyering@idefix) |
| |
| * builtin.c, format.c, input.c: Split long lines. |
| * m4.c: Use typedef macro_definition instead of struct |
| macro_definition. |
| * symtab.c: Use typedef symbol instead of struct symbol. |
| |
| Tue Nov 17 01:58:40 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule) |
| |
| * *.[ch]: Remove all trailing whitespace, in code and comments. |
| |
| * configure.in: Find some awk. |
| * Makefile.in: Add $(AWK) to MDEFINES. |
| * checks/Makefile.in: Transmit $(AWK) to get_them. |
| * checks/get_them: Use $AWK instead of gawk. Add a close in the |
| awk script when switching files, because without this, mawk runs |
| out of file descriptors. |
| |
| Mon Nov 16 20:42:56 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule) |
| |
| * Makefile.in (realclean): Delete m4.info*. |
| Reported by Jim Meyering. |
| |
| * Makefile.in: Adjust and link with checks/Makefile. |
| * checks/Makefile.in: New. |
| * configure.in: Output checks/Makefile. |
| |
| * checks/get_them: Have the dnl header of each test more |
| recognizable by next-error, also use a better message. |
| |
| Mon Nov 16 07:48:52 1992 Jim Meyering (meyering@idefix) |
| |
| * m4.h [__GNUC__]: Use __volatile__ instead of `volatile.' |
| And use that only if __GNUC__ since we're using it's GCC-specific |
| semantics that tell the compiler the associated function doesn't |
| return. |
| |
| * builtin.c (substitute): Don't use character as an array index. |
| (dumpdef_cmp): Make formal arguments `const void *' to avoid |
| warnings with gcc -W -Wall on systems with qsort prototype. |
| (m4_errprint): Cast obstack_finish to `char *' to avoid warnings |
| from gcc -W -Wall. |
| |
| * eval.c (most functions): Add parentheses to assignments used |
| as truth values go avoid warnings from gcc -Wall. |
| |
| * input.c, m4.c, output.c, path.c, symtab.c: Declare static |
| any functions that don't need external scope. |
| |
| * builtin.c, debug.c, format.c, m4.c, m4.h, macro.c, symtab.c |
| (many functions and arrays): Declare `const'. |
| |
| Sun Nov 15 09:42:09 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule) |
| |
| * *.[ch]: Rename nil to NULL, using the declaration from <stdio.h>, |
| removing the declaration from m4.h. Also rename false to FALSE |
| and true to TRUE. |
| |
| * lib/Makefile.in (Makefile): New goal. |
| |
| * Makefile.in, lib/Makefile.in: Add a .c.o rule, so CFLAGS is not |
| so heavily loaded. It gets more easily overridable, calling make. |
| Reported by Jim Meyering. |
| |
| * Makefile.in (dist): Get .fname from the current directory name, |
| instead of from version.h. I need updating many files manually, |
| when the version changes, version.h is just one of them. |
| |
| Sat Nov 14 11:01:20 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule) |
| |
| * m4.h: Remove the tag `boolean' on the enum introducing typedef |
| `boolean'. This tag conflicts with <sys/types.h> on SVR4. |
| Reported by Tom McConnell. |
| |
| Fri Nov 13 00:12:50 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule) |
| |
| * m4.texinfo: Correct the examples for 33.divert, 38.divnum, |
| 39.cleardiv, which were describing missing or spurious newlines. |
| Modify examples 52.eval, 53.esyscmd and 54.sysval so the results |
| do not depend on machine word size, `/bin/false' implementation, |
| or `wc' output format. `make check' is more dependable, now. |
| |
| * checks/check_them: Summarize the failed tests by listing their |
| name, at end. If none, issue `All checks successful'. Output |
| `Checking' instead of `Input file:'. |
| |
| * checks/get_them, checks/check_them: Reindented. |
| |
| * Makefile.in (dist): chmod a+r before making the tar file. |
| |
| Thu Nov 12 14:42:57 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule) |
| |
| * builtin.c (m4_dnl): Diagnose any parameter to `dnl'. |
| |
| * input.c (next_token): Reinitialize token_buttom just after using |
| it as a watermark with obstack_free. Or else, a future token, big |
| enough for triggering reallocation of the obstack chunk, could |
| void the initialized value of token_buttom, later causing panic in |
| obstack_free. Rename token_buttom to token_bottom everywhere. |
| |
| * m4.h: Before declaring errno, first include <errno.h> and |
| ensure that it does not define errno. |
| Reported by Richard Stallman. |
| |
| Wed Nov 11 17:40:35 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule) |
| |
| * builtin.c: Define and use DECLARE macro for builtins. |
| |
| * builtin.c (m4_ifelse): Avoid any diagnostic when exactly one |
| argument, this is a common idiom for introducing long comments. |
| |
| * builtin.c (m4_ifelse): If 3n + 2 arguments, diagnose missing |
| arguments. The last argument was silently ignored. |
| |
| * m4.c (cmd_error): Add a missing semicolon before va_end(). |
| |
| Tue Nov 10 08:57:05 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule) |
| |
| * Makefile.in: Now handle protoized sources. Define and use U. |
| Compile and use ansi2knr with old compilers. Update DISTFILES. |
| Add `aclocal.m4' to `configure' dependencies. |
| * ansi2knr.c: New, from Ghostscript distribution. |
| * configure.in: Define U through FP_PROTOTYPES for old compilers. |
| Add AC_ISC_POSIX, AC_CONST, AC_SIZE_T. |
| * aclocal.m4: New, provide FP_PROTOTYPES. |
| * m4.h: Conditionnaly protoized through Args, save for varags. |
| * builtin.c: Protoized. Then: |
| Include <sys/types.h> if size_t is not defined, before "regex.h". |
| (m4_ifelse): Fetch built-in name properly for diagnostic. |
| (m4_dumpdef): Remove wrong (char *) cast calling dump_symbol. |
| (m4_regexp): Add const to `msg' declaration. |

| * eval.c: Protoized. |
| * format.c: Protoized. |
| * input.c: Protoized. |
| * m4.c: Protoized, save for varargs. Then: |
| (xfree): Accept void * instead of char *. |
| (xmalloc): Return void * instead of char *. |
| (xrealloc): Accept and return void * instead of char *. |
| * macro.c: Protoized. |
| * output.c: Protoized. |
| * path.c: Protoized. Then cast some (char *) over xmalloc's. |
| * symtab.c: Protoized. |
| |
| Fri Nov 6 02:05:21 1992 François Pinard (pinard at icule) |
| |
| * m4.texinfo: Remove directory from diagnostics in 30.include, |
| 51.eval, 56.errprint and 57.m4exit tests. |
| |
| * m4.h: Remove declarations for int or void system functions, they |
| cause more conflicting trouble than they make good. |
| |
| * configure.in: Avoid configuration header file. Add some tests. |
| * m4.h: Remove #include "config.h". |
| * Makefile.in, lib/Makefile.in: Implement Autoconf interface. |

| |
| * Makefile.in (check): Add m4 as dependency. |
| |
| * m4.c: Accept --no-warnings instead of --no_warnings, and |
| --no-gnu-extensions instead of --no_gnu_extensions. Make the |
| usage message more informative. |
