Latest type checks
by Martin Stjernholm, Roxen IS ＠ Pike developers forum 13 Jul '08

Errata: It should be "error_type" instead of "error_name" to adhere to the Error.Generic interface.

7.7/precompile.pike
by H. William Welliver III 11 Jul '08

11 Jul '08

I just tried compiling an external module and noticed that include/ pike/precompile.pike has as its primary line: #include "../lib/modules/Tools.pmod/Standalone.pmod/precompile.pike" which isn't correct when Pike is installed. I temporarily changed the line to add an extra "../" but I know that's not the correct long term solution. Any suggestions? Bill

Secure strings
by Martin Stjernholm, Roxen IS ＠ Pike developers forum 04 Jul '08

04 Jul '08

Regarding the new String.secure feature, what do you think about censoring such strings in sprintf("%O") output? That'd make it very useful to avoid password leakage in backtraces etc. All other operations on it - especially sprintf("%q") - would continue to work as usual.

comments on "simplified method for external modules"
by Bill Welliver 01 Jul '08

01 Jul '08

I've been following the changes file and just thought I would mention that the subject example includes GNU-makeisms that aren't compatible with standard make. Also, is it appropriate to recommend that users not use the standard module build method? The sample, while simple, seems to require the inclusion of a lot of rules that already exist in dynamic_module_makefile, however without a lot of the edge case handling. I'm all for simplification, but I'm concerned that recommending users write modules in this manner will result in a lot of modules floating around that don't build or install properly. Bill

Please upgrade nettle bundle to nettle 1.15 from current 1.14 [4555]
by Henrik Grubbstr�m (Lysator) ＠ Pike (-) developers forum 01 Jul '08

01 Jul '08

Fåntratt; varför skulle man vilja editera testdata för ett test som kräver att indata inte ändrat sig? BTW: i debianbugg 393400 konstaterar han för övrigt att GNU-manifestet (och således troligen även GPL-licensen i sig) inte uppfyller deras krav... / Henrik Grubbström (Lysator) Previous text: >16611585 2008-06-30 12:38 /20 lines/ Brevbäraren >Recipients: Pike (-) ticket import >Subject: Please upgrade nettle bundle to nettle 1.15 from current 1.14 [4555] >-------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Product: Pike > Version: 7.0 > Component: Core > Reporter: simon(a)josefsson.org > URL: https://community.roxen.com/crunch/show_bug.cgi?id=4555 > >Hi!
