2006-09-04* Use a proper namespace.Eelco Dolstra
* Optimise header file usage a bit. * Compile the parser as C++.
2006-09-04* Store the Nix libraries in ${libdir}/nix instead of ${libdir}.Eelco Dolstra
2006-09-01* New primop: builtins.toFile, which writes a string into the storeEelco Dolstra
and returns its path. This can be used to (for instance) write builders inside a Nix expression, e.g., stdenv.mkDerivation { builder = " source $stdenv/setup ... "; ... }
2006-09-01* Allow "$" in strings as long as they are not followed by "{". (TooEelco Dolstra
bad flex doesn't have lexical restrictions, the current solution isn't quite right...)
2006-09-01* Fix race condition in the test.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-31* Doh! Doh! Doh!Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-31* Better error checking.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-30* Okay, that's a bit harder than expected.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-30* TDD: == should do a deep equality test, i.e., it should strictlyEelco Dolstra
evaluate its arguments.
2006-08-30* Uninitialised variable.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-29* Support singleton values and nested lists again in `args', but printEelco Dolstra
a warning.
2006-08-29* Fix the ~ operator.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-29* Backwards compatibility test for ~.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-28* In toString, deal with nested lists properly (i.e., flatten them).Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-28* Removed processBinding, instead we now apply toString to allEelco Dolstra
derivation attributes to flatten them into strings. This is possible since string can nowadays be wrapped in contexts that describe the derivations/sources referenced by the evaluation of the string.
2006-08-26* Refactoring.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-25* Remove those storePath attribute sets, we don't need 'em.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-25* Map "ppc" to "powerpc" so that Linux on PowerPC will be reported asEelco Dolstra
"powerpc-linux".
2006-08-25* Doh! (NIX-58)Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-25* Honour DESTDIR so that bzip2/bunzip2 get installed in the rightEelco Dolstra
location when building RPMs (fixes NIX-58).
2006-08-24* Escape newlines in XML attributes to prevent them from beingEelco Dolstra
normalised away.
2006-08-24* New primop __toXML (or builtins.toXML) to convert an expression toEelco Dolstra
an XML representation stored in a string. This should be useful to pass structured information to builders.
2006-08-24* Refactoring.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-24* Strict evaluation and XML printing of lists.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-24* Refactoring: move strictEval to libexpr.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-23* Allow --arg in nix-env as well, example:Eelco Dolstra
$ nix-env -qa --system-filter \* --arg system '"powerpc-darwin"' to override the system from the default value (__currentSystem in all-packages.nix).
2006-08-23* Pass the autoArgs to findAlongAttrPath so that "nix-instantiateEelco Dolstra
foo.nix -A attr --arg name value" will work if (name, value) is needed in the evaluation leading up to "attr".
2006-08-23* Quotes.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-23* New primop: abort "error message".Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-23* A new primop `builtins', which returns an attribute set containingEelco Dolstra
all the primops. This allows Nix expressions to test for new primops and take appropriate action if they're not available. For instance, rather than calling a primop `foo' directly, they could say `if builtins ? foo then builtins.foo ... else ...'.
2006-08-22* Release notes.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-22* Revert unintentional commit.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-22* Urgh (see NIX-56).Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-21* Convert to DocBook 5.Eelco Dolstra
* Use Jing for RelaxNG validation, xmllint seems buggy.
2006-08-17* Distribute *.exp.xml.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-17* Test for `nix-instantiate --eval-only --xml'.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-17* Print attributes in sorted order, rather than the arbitrary orderEelco Dolstra
produced by ATermMap. Necessary for testing. * `--strict' should also work on stdin.
2006-08-16* More XML output. `--strict' to strictly evaluate attribute sets andEelco Dolstra
so on. * Removed `--print-args', it's subsumed by `--eval-only --xml'.
2006-08-16* `nix-instantiate --{eval|parse}-only --xml': print an XMLEelco Dolstra
representation instead of an ATerm. * Indent XML output.
2006-08-16* Meh.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-16* Handle carriage returns. Fixes NIX-53.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-16* A test for NIX-53.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-15On cygwin, disable the check that the output is not group or worldMartin Bravenboer
writable. File permissions on Cygwin are rather complex, and in this case this check introduced a problem with build jobs invoke from outside of Cygwin (MSYS). It seemed almost impossible to fix the permissions of the directory, so for now this safety check is disabled on Cygwin.
2006-08-14* Put the value in an attribute.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-11* `nix-store --gc --print-dead': print the total size of the storeEelco Dolstra
objects that would be freed.
2006-08-11* Don't assume that paths returned by the runtime root finder areEelco Dolstra
valid.
2006-08-10* New configuration setting `build-max-jobs' which sets the defaultEelco Dolstra
for the `-j' flag (i.e., the maximum number of jobs to execute in parallel). Useful on multi-processor machines.
2006-08-09* file:/ -> file://Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-09* Fix the help message wrt --attr.Eelco Dolstra
2006-08-09* Print a warning that the subpath operator (~) is deprecated.Eelco Dolstra
