2010-10-23* Optimise string constants by putting them in the symbol table.Eelco Dolstra
2010-10-23* Make Value smaller by not storing redundant PrimOp info.Eelco Dolstra
* Clear pointers in Values after overwriting them to make sure that no objects are kept alive unnecessarily.
2010-10-23* Remove allocValues().Eelco Dolstra
2010-10-22* In environments, store pointers to values rather than values. ThisEelco Dolstra
improves GC effectiveness a bit more (because a live value doesn't keep other values in the environment plus the parent environments alive), and removes the need for copy nodes.
2010-10-22* Store Value nodes outside of attribute sets. I.e., Attr now storesEelco Dolstra
a pointer to a Value, rather than the Value directly. This improves the effectiveness of garbage collection a lot: if the Value is stored inside the set directly, then any live pointer to the Value causes all other attributes in the set to be live as well.
2010-10-22* Make building against the Boehm GC a configure option.Eelco Dolstra
2010-10-20* Keep some more stats.Eelco Dolstra
2010-10-20* Use the Boehm garbage collector to reclaim unused memory in the NixEelco Dolstra
expression evaluator.
2010-10-04* Make sure that config.h is included before the system headers,Eelco Dolstra
because it defines _FILE_OFFSET_BITS. Without this, on OpenSolaris the system headers define it to be 32, and then the 32-bit stat() ends up being called with a 64-bit "struct stat", or vice versa. This also ensures that we get 64-bit file sizes everywhere. * Remove the redundant call to stat() in parseExprFromFile(). The file cannot be a symlink because that's the exit condition of the loop before.
2010-10-04* If std::tr1::unordered_set is unavailable, use std::set.Eelco Dolstra
2010-10-04* In printMsg(), ignore failing writes to stderr if we're in anEelco Dolstra
exception handler, otherwise throw an exception. We need to ignore write errors in exception handlers to ensure that cleanup code runs to completion if the other side of stderr has been closed unexpectedly.
2010-10-04* Hack needed for GCC 4.3.2 on OpenSolaris.Eelco Dolstra
2010-09-14* Doh. Remove debug message.Eelco Dolstra
2010-08-27* Oops - "null" was displayed as "true".Eelco Dolstra
2010-08-12* Make --cores work when building through the Nix daemon.Eelco Dolstra
2010-08-04* Remove "auto" and "guess" as synonyms for 0 in the handling ofEelco Dolstra
build-cores and --cores. They're superfluous and just complicate the parsing.
2010-08-04* Set the default system filter to "*". This ensures that (forEelco Dolstra
instance) "nix-env -i wine" works on x86_64-linux, even though Wine is built on i686-linux. In the event that there are multiple matching derivations, prefer those built for the current system.
2010-08-02* Optimisation in the // operator: if one of the sets is empty, returnEelco Dolstra
the other set.
2010-08-02* intersectAttrs: optimise for the case where the second set is largerEelco Dolstra
than the first set. (That's usually the case with callPackage.)
2010-07-15src/bsdiff-4.3/Makefile.am: include the 'compat-include' directory in ↵Peter Simons
distribution tarballs
2010-06-24Fix build of bsdiff-4.3 on machines that don't have <err.h>, such as Solaris.Peter Simons
2010-06-24src/libutil/util.cc: include <limit.h> to ensure that PATH_MAX is definedPeter Simons
2010-06-24Include <cstring> to ensure that strcpy(), strlen(), and memset() are declared.Peter Simons
An "using namespace std" was added locally in those functions that refer to names from <cstring>. That is not pretty, but it's a very portable solution, because strcpy() and friends will be found in both the 'std' and in the global namespace.
2010-06-23Added support for passing an (impure) NIX_BUILD_CORES variable to build ↵Peter Simons
expressions. This patch adds the configuration file variable "build-cores" and the command line argument "--cores". These settings specify the number of CPU cores to utilize for parallel building within a job, i.e. by passing an appropriate "-j" flag to GNU Make. The default value is 1, which means that parallel building is *disabled*. If the number of build cores is specified as 0 (synonymously: "guess" or "auto"), then the actual value is supposed to be auto-detected by builders at run-time, i.e by calling the nproc(1) utility from coreutils. The environment variable $NIX_BUILD_CORES is available to builders, but the contents of that variable does *not* influence the hash that goes into the $out store path, i.e. the number of build cores to be utilized can be changed at will without requiring any re-builds.
2010-06-14* In importPath() and exportPath(), lock the temporary directory toEelco Dolstra
prevent it from being deleted by the garbage collector.
2010-06-10* builtins.toXML: propagate the string context. This is a regressionEelco Dolstra
from the old ATerm-based evaluator.
2010-06-04* Applied a patch from David Brown to prevent `nix-store --optimise'Eelco Dolstra
from failing on rename() on BtrFS.

2010-06-01* Turn build errors during evaluation into EvalErrors.Eelco Dolstra
2010-05-31Add XML output to `nix-store'.Ludovic Courtès
* src/nix-store/Makefile.am (nix_store_SOURCES): Add `xmlgraph.cc' and `xmlgraph.hh'. * src/nix-store/help.txt (Operations): Document `--xml'. * src/nix-store/nix-store.cc (opQuery): Handle `--xml'. * src/nix-store/xmlgraph.cc, src/nix-store/xmlgraph.hh: New files.
2010-05-31Comment out dead code in `nix-store'.Ludovic Courtès
* src/nix-store/dotgraph.cc (pathLabel): Move within #if 0 section.
2010-05-30* Remove an accidentally committed debug statement.Eelco Dolstra
2010-05-18* The << operator on values should be const.Eelco Dolstra
2010-05-15* Restore the __overrides feature that was lost somewhere in theEelco Dolstra
fast-eval branch.
2010-05-12* Print attributes in sorted order.Eelco Dolstra
2010-05-12* Implemented tryEval, the last missing primop in the fast-evalEelco Dolstra
branch. Also added a test for tryEval.

2010-05-07* Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra
2010-05-07* Store position info for inherited attributes.Eelco Dolstra
2010-05-07* Updated addErrorContext.Eelco Dolstra
2010-05-07* Keep track of the source positions of attributes.Eelco Dolstra
2010-05-06* Store attribute positions in the AST and report duplicate attributeEelco Dolstra
errors with position info. * For all positions, use the position of the first character of the first token, rather than the last character of the first token plus one.

2010-04-23* Don't need the test program anymore.Eelco Dolstra
2010-04-22* Simplify the implementation of `with'. This gives a 7% speedup inEelco Dolstra
evaluating the NixOS system configuration.
2010-04-22* Check for duplicate attribute names / function arguments. `makeEelco Dolstra
check' now succeeds :-) * An attribute set such as `{ foo = { enable = true; }; foo.port = 23; }' now parses. It was previously rejected, but I'm too lazy to implement the check. (The only reason to reject it is that the reverse, `{ foo.port = 23; foo = { enable = true; }; }', is rejected, which is kind of ugly.)
2010-04-22* String equality tests should take the context into account. All theEelco Dolstra
evaluation test cases now succeed.
2010-04-21* Don't use an ostringstream in unparseDerivation(), because it'sEelco Dolstra
slow. A `nix-env -qa --drv-path \*' on Nixpkgs was spending 40% of its time in unparseDerivation() because of this (now 11%).
2010-04-21* Fix the interpretation of ''\<character> in indented strings.Eelco Dolstra
2010-04-21* Fixed builtins.genericClosure.Eelco Dolstra
