compiling the source (VPATH err)
by Danesh Daroui 14 Mar '14

14 Mar '14

Dear all, I have downloaded and compiled successfully the source code of Pike-v7.8.700. Now when I clone the git repository of Pike, the make complains about VPATH is not supported by make. I have modified VPATH variable to point to the where the source code (compiled previously) resides, but the problem is still there. Any tip for that? Regards, D.

Bignum fixes backported in 7.8
by Jonas Walld�n ＠ Pike developers forum 12 Mar '14

12 Mar '14

I've merged most of the bignum fixes from 8.0 into 7.8 since we need to build with clang on OS X. I've excluded changes that added new API or that removed the AUTO_BIGNUM define and everything passes verbose_verify on my local machine. If you see any unintended side-effects please let me know.

bash/dash
by Arne Goedeke 10 Mar '14

10 Mar '14

My gentoo /bin/sh (which is bash) unlike dash generates a broken whitespace.h file from the current bin/getwhitespace.sh . I dont know which of the two is wrong here, but should we simply use numeric values instead of character escapes? arne

segfault: foo[bar]();
by Martin Bähr 03 Mar '14

03 Mar '14

any existing identifier indexed with a non-existing one and then called as a function causes a segfault: mixed foo; foo[bar](); String[int2hex](); fails in 7.8 and 8.0 but not in 7.6 greetings, martin.

Pike 8
by Martin Nilsson (Opera Mini - AFK!) ＠ Pike (-) developers forum 02 Mar '14

So we are down to two failing testcases, both related to the sprintf type. Can we fix that and release Pike 8 before we break something new?

New 7.8 alpha
by Bill Welliver 27 Feb '14

27 Feb '14

Good day, I've prepared and uploaded a new Pike 7.8 alpha. This includes all of the backports and has an up-to-date changelog. I've verified the build passes tests* on OSX 10.9. Please have a look and let me know if there aren't any problems. If all goes well, I'll upgrade it to beta status in a week or so. http://pike.lysator.liu.se/pub/pike/alpha/7.8.834/Pike-v7.8.834.tar.gz Bill * MacOS X 10.9 seems to have different kqueue behavior than previous releases, in that events seem to be delayed, causing the IP tests to timeout unless the timeout is increased beyond the default 20 seconds.

Another typo in Thread.pmod on 7.8
by Jeff Hungerford 02 Feb '14

02 Feb '14

It looks like this is fixed in 8.0, but in 7.8 Thread.Farm()->run() doesn't connect the returned result object to the job in the queue. Line 661 is: job_queue->write( ({ 0, ({f, args }) }) ); But it should be: job_queue->write( ({ ro, ({f, args }) }) ); -Jeff
