Pike 7.6
by Martin Nilsson (DivX Inc.) ＠ Pike (-) developers forum 23 Aug '06

It is time for a new release of Pike 7.6. Is there anyone who can do the release notes? If not, we'll just wait a bit longer...

Windows build take 3
by Bill Welliver 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

I've gotten Pike to compile nominally under Windows using the Visual C++ toolkit. The problem I'm dealing with now is that some of the dynamic modules fail to load: C:/msys/1.0/home/e10401/pike-7.7.21/build/mingw32_nt-5.1-1.0.10_0.46_3_2_-i686/lib/modules/Gmp.so:-: Warning: Failed to load library: Symbol '_hook_in_int64_funcs' not found. I compiled with DLDEBUG and DLVERBOSE, and that output is here: http://hww3.riverweb.com/dist/pikeWinBuildLoadError.txt >From what I can tell, hook_in_int64_funcs is defined in the pike binary. Any suggestions? Bill

accessing PIKE_MODULE_INIT{} in a CMOD?
by Adam Montague 27 Nov '05

27 Nov '05

I have a couple modules that are just plain CMODs, with no pike stub at all. Is there a way to put a couple of add_string_constant() calls into the PIKE_MODULE_INIT{} section that is generated from a CMOD? I tried just making an INIT{} section in the module outside of the classes, but that didn't work. Adam

port

I suggest that the portability functions be renamed from uppercase to lowercase with p_ prefixed. E.g. MEMSET would be p_memset. It would make it easier to identify where things came from.

some-sprsh-test
by Peter Bortas ＠ Pike developers forum 26 Nov '05

26 Nov '05

In 7.7 Makefile checks for "some-sprsh-test" before running the tests with sprsh. This is a change since 7.6 and I can not find the place where that file is supposed to be created. Is there something I'm missing, because right now the tests dies at once because it tries to run the win32 binary on the configure host?

Protocols.SNMP.protocol()->readmsg hanging
by Adam Montague 26 Nov '05

26 Nov '05

Protocols.SNMP.protocol()->readmsg waits forever trying to read from the socket. The problem is you can send out a request on a lossy link, then try to readmsg() it, and never get an answer, hanging your script. I've attached a tiny patch to add an optional int|void timeout to readmsg(). Adam

--without-bignums doesn't seem to work.
by Adam Montague 25 Nov '05

25 Nov '05

make CONFIGUREARGS="--without-bundles --without-bignums" stops with: Bundles not available. configure: error: Cannot compile --with-bignums without the GMP library It is highly recommended that you install a working GMP library on your system as that will add features to Pike required by many applications. (Such as Roxen) However, if you know that you do not need GMP, you may re-run configure with the option --without-bignums instead. configure: error: /bin/sh '/home/adam/Pike-v7.6.50/src/modules/Gmp/ configure' failed for Gmp configure: error: /bin/sh '/home/adam/Pike- v7.6.50/src/modules/configure' failed for modules *** Error code 1 Adam

Getting rid of .column_name in postgresql
by Adam Montague 25 Nov '05

25 Nov '05

Postgres doesn't return the table name when you make a query, so right now where mysql would give you a mapping containing both "column" and "table.column", postgres gives you "column" and ".column" for no reason. Looking at the code, it appears as though this is intentional? Is there any objection to getting rid of the .column, something like the attached patch? Adam

windows build take 2
by Bill Welliver 23 Nov '05

23 Nov '05

I'm having another go at building Pike on the windows platform. This time, I'm using msys plus rntcl to run the microsoft command line compiler. It's actually working out pretty well; I have all of the modules compiling, and there are only one or two minor problems there. I'm into the main pike code now, and I've run into two problems: 1. the definition of do_pike_exit in main.h causes problems because the its declspec is different from that defined in pike_embed.h (from what I can tell. I temporarily commented the definition in main.h out so that I could continue with compilation. 2. fdlib doesn't compile because of the following error: C:\msys\1.0\home\e10401\pike-7.7.21\src\fdlib.c(918) : error C2440: 'type cast' : cannot convert from 'PIKE_OFF_T' to 'LARGE_INTEGER' C:\msys\1.0\home\e10401\pike-7.7.21\src\fdlib.c(918) : error C2440: 'function' : cannot convert from 'LARGE_INTEGER *' to 'LARGE_INTEGER' C:\msys\1.0\home\e10401\pike-7.7.21\src\fdlib.c(918) : warning C4024: 'SetFilePointerEx' : different types for formal and actual parameter 2 C:\msys\1.0\home\e10401\pike-7.7.21\src\fdlib.c(918) : warning C4047: 'function' : 'PLARGE_INTEGER' differs in levels of indirection from 'int' C:\msys\1.0\home\e10401\pike-7.7.21\src\fdlib.c(918) : error C2198: 'SetFilePointerEx' : too few arguments for call through pointer-to-function CL returned error code 2. Any thoughts? Bill
