setting include_prefix as argument to make
by Martin Bähr 04 Jun '09

04 Jun '09

hi, do you have any suggestions for a better fix for d99b820bd5312b8dbd7d15ceddc4f0d4052d37bb to allow to specify include_prefix as an argument to make? i accept the issue with ?= being a gnu thing, but i don't yet understand what problems the other changes cause. include_prefix = vars->include_prefix||combine_path(prefix,"include","pike"); should not change if include_prefix is not specified. if vars->include_prefix has a value but no include_prefix argument was given, then something else must be wrong. for include_prefix="$(include_prefix)" $(INSTALLARGS) if include_prefix is not specified as a make argument, this change should not do anything because arguments are checked in install.pike with foreach(argv[1..], string foo) if(sscanf(foo,"%s=%s",string var, string value)==2) vars[var]=value; greetings, martin.

resolver issues
by Arne Goedeke 02 Jun '09

I ran into some resolver issues while writing the inotify module. Maybe related to what was on the list a while ago. The problem seems to be that when using #if constant(Public.System.Inotify.someconstant) inside of Public.System.Inotify (using #if constant(someconstant) directly doesnt work in the first place). Compilation works fine but afterworks that constant cannot be accessed in some cases. for instance doing import Public.System.Inotify; do_something(Public.System.Inotify.someconstant); does not compile because someconstant cannot be found. I encountered some other problems in various combinations... (with import/without). It still works to index by hand using `[](). Maybe I should not check for some local constant in a preprocessor directive? arne ps. i added the module to gotpike. the constant causing the trouble is IN_MASK_ADD.

sizeof(int)

Let me correct myself: It could in theory be less, since Pike.NATIVE_MAX is signed. In practice the problem in such a case certainly will be elsewhere, though.

Then you need to know the size of the inotify event int, rather than the native size of a pike int. They need not be the same. Doesn't the inotify specification specify the size of the int?

And what are you going to do with the data that falls outside the "limit"?
