Performing substitutions during post-patch breaks tools such as mkpatches,
making it very difficult to regenerate correct patches after making changes,
and often leading to substituted string replacements being committed.

accordingly.
snobol4.man from vanilla.tar.gz rather than from pm.exe within vanilla.zip;
as vanilla.zip is no longer distributed (and the change between these two
versions is very minimal). Due to distfile and packaging changes bump
PKGREVISION.

Fix faulty lexical comparison function optimzations for null string
Performance improvments;
New string hash function
(reduced both compilation and run time of genc.sno by 5%)
Optimized most common case (CONTIN actions) in
"stream" operation used for lexical analysis.
(reduced compilation time of genc.sno by 8%)
Merged all scanner (pattern matching) functions into
single C function (eliminates mutual recursion, stack
overflows)
genc runtime reduced 15%
atn.sno runtime reduced by 63%!! (2.7x faster)
worst case (4096 char string) reduced 69% (4.8x faster)
snocone self-compile runtime reduced 5%
Made pattern building functions (lib/pat.c) inlinable
(8% reduction in genc.sno compile time)
Eliminate space padding on lines read by compiler
(reduced genc.sno compile time by 65%)
Raised default C compiler optimization levels
Default &MAXLNGTH to largest possible string
Documentation:
README file describes available includes
Include PDF of manual page
Implement fatal "Output error" for output, ENDFILE() errors
Configuration script re-write;
Eliminate static config files & autoconf script
configure generates config.m4 and config.h
(with all defines) for use by loadable functions
New configuration options;
**** see "INSTALL" file for more information ****
--add-define=
Add a #define to config.h (visible to external functions)
--double
EXPERIMENTAL option to use C "double" for SNOBOL4 REAL data type
--fast
Architecture specific optimizations on native compilers
--longlong
EXPERIMENTAL!!
try to use C "long long" (64-bit integer) for INTEGER datatype
when longs/pointers are only 32-bits (ILP32 data model).
--lp64
Request use of 64-bit long/pointer data model
if available on this architecture, and not the default.
--no-opt
Compile without optimization
New SNOBOL library files (see README);
compatibility libraries:
fence.sno, logic.sno, not.sno
spitbol.sno, snobol4+.sno
HOST() function codes:
host.sno
URL (http:, ftp:, file:) access functions
Use large files (64-bit offsets) where available. Allows access
and creation of files larger than 2GB
New functions;
FUNCTION() -- predicate to test if a function is defined
** EXPERIMENTAL **
LABEL() -- predicate to test if a label is defined
idea from Steve Duff's version of Macro SPITBOL
ORD() -- inverse of CHAR()
SERV_LISTEN() -- act as TCP server
SSET() -- scaled SET() allow large files when INTEGER is 32bits
VDIFFER() -- returns first arg if two arguments DIFFER()
idea from Steve Duff's version of Macro SPITBOL
Extended HOST() functions (see host.sno) for system diagnosis
HOST() function will accept REAL or integer encoded STRING args
TIME() function now returns REAL datatype allows both better
resolution (for small values) and larger range. Using
32-bit floats, runtimes larger than four and a half
hours will lose resolution.
Statistics reports compiler and execution times as REAL numbers
Average statement runtime reported in microseconds (us).
Allow a REAL any place an INTEGER is required (from SNOBOL4+)
Contexts include TABLE(), ITEM(), array indices,
INPUT(), OUTPUT(), SET(), keyword values, CHAR(),
RPAD(), LPAD(), FIELD(), COLLECT(), DUMP(), DUPL(),
OPSYN(), and SUBSTR()
load.h updates;
all RETxxx macros safe in any context
RETSTR() takes single argument, allows NULL pointer
RETSTR2() has old RETSTR() functionality
RETINT() and RETREAL() always set return data type.
All include files needed to build loadable functions
installed in SNOLIB directory
Include BSD tsort program; allow builds from scratch
on platforms with GNU tsort (Linux, Cygwin)
New ports;
Ported to Darwin (MacOS X)
Ported to Cygwin (http://cygwin.com), a free Unix emulation
environment for Windows.
Attempt at native Win32 port
Updated Borland C port
Updated VMS port; pipe open support, attempt at tty support
removed unavailable ftp://alpha.gnu.org/budne/snobol/.
add new entry ftp://ftp.snobol4.org/snobol/old/.
(ftp://ftp.snobol4.org/snobol/ have newer version 1.1).
INSTALLATION_DIRS, as well as all occurrences of ${PREFIX}/man with
${PREFIX}/${PKGMANDIR}.
Fixes PR 35265, although I did not use the patch provided therein.
pkgsrc. Instead, a new variable PKGREVISION is invented that can get
bumped independent of DISTNAME and PKGNAME.
Example #1:
DISTNAME= foo-X.Y
PKGREVISION= Z
=> PKGNAME= foo-X.YnbZ
Example #2:
DISTNAME= barthing-X.Y
PKGNAME= bar-X.Y
PKGREVISION= Z
=> PKGNAME= bar=X.YnbZ (!)
On subsequent changes, only PKGREVISION needs to be bumped, no more risk
of getting DISTNAME changed accidentally.
foo-* to foo-[0-9]*. This is to cause the dependencies to match only the
packages whose base package name is "foo", and not those named "foo-bar".
A concrete example is p5-Net-* matching p5-Net-DNS as well as p5-Net. Also
change dependency examples in Packages.txt to reflect this.
first component is now a package name+version/pattern, no more
executable/patchname/whatnot.
While there, introduce BUILD_USES_MSGFMT as shorthand to pull in
devel/gettext unless /usr/bin/msgfmt exists (i.e. on post-1.5 -current).
Patch by Alistair Crooks <agc@netbsd.org>
Closes pkg/10535. Changes are:
o Bypassed the hard-to-reproduce build failure caused by
getrusage() returning decreasing microsecond times. Did
this by wrapping the getrusage() function so that it never
returns a smaller value for microseconds than the previous
time it was called, if called within the same second.
Perhaps this should be done to getrusage() internally, until
fixed the proper way. See PR bin/10201. --- refling.
o Added a tutorial and a message about it. --- refling.
