This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
* Many updates to include new OS X methods up to 10.5
* Made KeyValueCoding/Observing fully functional and MacOS-X compatible
See the release notes for more information.
License changed to GPLv3. Mostly bug fixes, particularly with regard
to XML handling and handling unichar on Windows.
Changes 1.14.0:
Many portability (particularly for ms-windows) and MacOS-X
compatibility fixes. New MacOS-X classes and incorporation of
NSAffineTransform and NSSpellServer which were formerly in the gui
library. Improved performance of amssively multithreaded programs.
Debug libraries now have the same name as normal libraries (i.e. no "_d"
suffix). This reduces the possiblity of multiple libraries being loaded
into the same executable.
Added dragonfly OS to make targets.
Spaces and backslashes are no longer allowed in paths used by the
make package (e.g. with Windows OS). The libraries can still use native
paths.
and add a new helper target and script, "show-buildlink3", that outputs
a listing of the buildlink3.mk files included as well as the depth at
which they are included.
For example, "make show-buildlink3" in fonts/Xft2 displays:
zlib
fontconfig
iconv
zlib
freetype2
expat
freetype2
Xrender
renderproto
RECOMMENDED is removed. It becomes ABI_DEPENDS.
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED.foo becomes BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS.foo becomes BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.foo.
BUILDLINK_DEPENDS does not change.
IGNORE_RECOMMENDED (which defaulted to "no") becomes USE_ABI_DEPENDS
which defaults to "yes".
Added to obsolete.mk checking for IGNORE_RECOMMENDED.
I did not manually go through and fix any aesthetic tab/spacing issues.
I have tested the above patch on DragonFly building and packaging
subversion and pkglint and their many dependencies.
I have also tested USE_ABI_DEPENDS=no on my NetBSD workstation (where I
have used IGNORE_RECOMMENDED for a long time). I have been an active user
of IGNORE_RECOMMENDED since it was available.
As suggested, I removed the documentation sentences suggesting bumping for
"security" issues.
As discussed on tech-pkg.
I will commit to revbump, pkglint, pkg_install, createbuildlink separately.
Note that if you use wip, it will fail! I will commit to pkgsrc-wip
later (within day).
There have been a number of API changes and several methods have been
depreciated in this release. Although current GNUstep programs that use
these methods will still work in this version, there are enough changes
that a new library version was considered useful. See the release notes
for more details
New NSStream classes where added to the library.
User defaults were restructured to create the defaults lazily and
can be set to not write to an external file at all, for developers who
wish to use the library as a stand-alone library or in other situations
where using external resources is not desired.
* Support for GNUstep.conf and relocation of the filesystem is much
improved in this release.
* The WM_QUIT message is now intercepted to allow an application to
terminate cleanly.
* NSMessagePort was implemented on Windows platforms.
* Deprecated support for system-wide GNUsteprc files has been
removed.
* Some support for keeping user defaults in the Windows registry
implemented.
* Window's path handling has changed to use native paths throughout.
* Startup/configuration of the libraries no longer requires
environement variables.
* Character sets are included in the library rather than being read
from data files.
* NSRunLoop and related classes use natvie win32 event handling on
Windows machines.
Several changes are involved since they are all interrelated. These
changes affect about 1000 files.
The first major change is rewriting bsd.builtin.mk as well as all of
the builtin.mk files to follow the new example in bsd.builtin.mk.
The loop to include all of the builtin.mk files needed by the package
is moved from bsd.builtin.mk and into bsd.buildlink3.mk. bsd.builtin.mk
is now included by each of the individual builtin.mk files and provides
some common logic for all of the builtin.mk files. Currently, this
includes the computation for whether the native or pkgsrc version of
the package is preferred. This causes USE_BUILTIN.* to be correctly
set when one builtin.mk file includes another.
The second major change is teach the builtin.mk files to consider
files under ${LOCALBASE} to be from pkgsrc-controlled packages. Most
of the builtin.mk files test for the presence of built-in software by
checking for the existence of certain files, e.g. <pthread.h>, and we
now assume that if that file is under ${LOCALBASE}, then it must be
from pkgsrc. This modification is a nod toward LOCALBASE=/usr. The
exceptions to this new check are the X11 distribution packages, which
are handled specially as noted below.
The third major change is providing builtin.mk and version.mk files
for each of the X11 distribution packages in pkgsrc. The builtin.mk
file can detect whether the native X11 distribution is the same as
the one provided by pkgsrc, and the version.mk file computes the
version of the X11 distribution package, whether it's built-in or not.
The fourth major change is that the buildlink3.mk files for X11 packages
that install parts which are part of X11 distribution packages, e.g.
Xpm, Xcursor, etc., now use imake to query the X11 distribution for
whether the software is already provided by the X11 distribution.
This is more accurate than grepping for a symbol name in the imake
config files. Using imake required sprinkling various builtin-imake.mk
helper files into pkgsrc directories. These files are used as input
to imake since imake can't use stdin for that purpose.
The fifth major change is in how packages note that they use X11.
Instead of setting USE_X11, package Makefiles should now include
x11.buildlink3.mk instead. This causes the X11 package buildlink3
and builtin logic to be executed at the correct place for buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that previously set USE_X11, and fixes packages
that relied on buildlink3.mk files to implicitly note that X11 is
needed. Package buildlink3.mk should also include x11.buildlink3.mk
when linking against the package libraries requires also linking
against the X11 libraries. Where it was obvious, redundant inclusions
of x11.buildlink3.mk have been removed.
This version mostly includes minor fixes and updates.
* The definition of NSContainsRect has changed to correspond with the
current Mac OS X/Cocoa def - the sides of the bRect can touch
aRect.
* Add support for systems that support unichar file paths (e.g.
Windows).
* Use a proper one-to-one abbreviation dictionary for NSTimeZone.
* Runtime discovery of the library version is possible.
* NSXMLParser class added. Not completely implemented.
* NSArrays makeObjectsPerformSelector iterates in same order as
MacOSX.
* Designated initializers for NSArray, NSDictionary, NSSet, and
NSString have been changed for MacOSX compatibility.
in the process. (More information on tech-pkg.)
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_DEPENDS of all packages using libtool and
installing .la files.
Bump PKGREVISION (only) of all packages depending directly on the above
via a buildlink3 include.
Bump PKGREVISION and BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for dependent packages due to
library major revision bump.
