Problem: More functions can be used as methods.
Solution: Make various functions usable as a method.
196b466443
server2client requires +clientserver, which hasn't been ported yet.
The eval.txt docs and test_clientserver.vim tests for server2client already exist, so include those
changes.
test_bufline.vim: Test for setbufline requires v8.1.1189 (which was reverted in #10848).
Problem: An OptionSet autocommand does not get enough info.
Solution: Add v:option_command, v:option_oldlocal and v:option_oldglobal.
(Latrice Wilgus, closesvim/vim#4118)

vim-patch:8.2.3627: difficult to know where the text starts in a window
Problem: difficult to know where the text starts in a window. (Sergey
Vlasov)
Solution: Add the "textoff" entry in the result of getwininfo().
(closesvim/vim#9163)
cdf5fdb294
Fix indent in Test_getbufwintabinfo().
Problem: getcwd() is unclear about how 'autochdir' is used.
Solution: Update the help for getcwd(). Without any arguments always return
the actual current directory. (closesvim/vim#9142)
851c7a699a
Problem: Not easy to change directory and restore.
Solution: Add the chdir() function. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#4358)
1063f3d200
Also includes some documentation changes from patch 8.1.1218.
Problem: Cannot distinguish Normal and Terminal-Normal mode.
Solution: Make mode() return "nt" for Terminal-Normal mode. (issue vim/vim#8856)
72406a4bd2
Cannot be fully ported as the remote_*() functions from +clientserver
are not yet ported. Include the test changes anyway.
line()'s optional winid argument was already ported. (Wasn't added in
this patch; this just adds documentation)
Problem: More functions can be used as methods.
Solution: Make various functions usable as a method.
3f4f3d8e7e
test_prompt_buffer.vim already had all the changes, except
Test_prompt_garbage_collect().
Problem: More functions can be used as a method.
Solution: Allow more functions to be used as a method. Add a test for
mapcheck().
a144983633
mzeval() (if_mzscheme) is N/A.
Does not include listener_*() functions.
js_*() functions are N/A.
json_encode() and json_decode() didn't include tests; add some anyway
(to json_functions_spec.lua).
test_lua.vim isn't included yet, so add tests to luaeval_spec.lua.
Adds method call support for all functions in the patch, but it cannot
be fully ported due to missing tests for:
- index(): requires Blobs from v8.1.0735.
Note that index() was already added as a method in v8.1.1803;
this patch only adds a test.
- iconv(): requires v8.1.1136 for test_termcodes.vim.
Nvim deprecated inputdialog(), so it no longer has an eval.txt entry.
Keep the test for hlexists() commented-out, just like previously. (Nvim
always defines the Number group, so it always returns 1 instead)
Cannot include both changes to test_syn_attr.vim as Nvim doesn't support
":hi term=..."; however, both test the same ->hlID() syntax anyway.
Adds method call support for all functions in the patch, but it cannot
be fully ported due to missing tests for:
- getcwd(): requires chdir() and Test_chdir_func() from v8.1.1291.
Note that the method call tests for getreg() and getregtype() were
removed in v8.2.1547, which has already been ported, but doesn't seem to
have been replaced with a new test...
This patch also makes getchangelist()'s argument optional (defaults to
the current buffer).
eval.txt includes a typo for gettabwinvar(), which is fixed in
v8.1.1952.
Adds method call support for all functions in the patch, but it cannot
be fully ported due to missing tests for:
- filereadable(): requires v8.1.1378 for Test_delete_rf(), but there
appears to have been some trouble porting it. (#12784)
- confirm(): requires v8.1.0832 for Test_confirm() and v8.1.0815 for
feedkeys()'s "L" flag.
(I did attempt to port the test using nvim_input() instead,
but seems that input handling for confirm() doesn't work in
--headless mode?)
Note that confirm() was actually added as a method in
v8.1.1915.
Uncomment use of method call syntax in Test_Executable() previously
included instead from v8.2.2259.
Problem: Cannot save and restore a register properly.
Solution: Add getreginfo() and make setreg() accept a dictionary. (Andy
Massimino, closesvim/vim#3370)
bb861e293e
Cherry-pick eval.txt changes for getreginfo() from:
6aa57295cf207f009326
Problem: Cannot get composing characters from the screen.
Solution: Add screenchars() and screenstring(). (partly by Ozaki Kiichi,
closesvim/vim#4059)
2912abb3a2
Also includes some small relevant nearby non-Blob changes and typo
fixes.
Changes are included from:
- v8.1.0815
- v8.1.0846
- v8.1.1084
- v8.1.2326
- v8.2.1969
- d89682477c
- d09091d495
- 53f7fccc94
Note that it is not possible for msgpack_unpack_next() and
msgpack_unpacker_next() to return MSGPACK_UNPACK_EXTRA_BYTES, so it
should be fine to abort() on that.
Lua 5.1 doesn't support string hex escapes (\xXX) like VimL does (though
LuaJIT does), so convert them to decimal escapes (\DDD) in tests.
These were issues that I found while porting that I fixed upstream. :^)
Very little of the patch can be exactly ported as we're a bit behind on
dependant patches (we also can't use the exact :for emsg, as we don't
support iterating over Strings yet), so just translate the fixes as best
as we can for now.
Include latest relevant doc changes from:
- v8.1.0815
- v8.2.2658
Problem: Items in a list given to :const can still be modified.
Solution: Work like ":lockvar! name" but don't lock referenced items.
Make locking a blob work.
021bda5671
Problem: Incorrect error messages for functions that now take a Blob
argument.
Solution: Adjust the error messages. (Dominique Pelle, closesvim/vim#3846)
0d17f0d1c0
Problem: Not enough documentation for Blobs.
Solution: Add a section about Blobs.
d89682477c
Include doc changes for empty() from v7.4.1274.
Include some minor typo fixes.
Strings that previously decoded into a msgpack special for representing
BINs with NULs now convert to Blobs. It shouldn't be possible to decode
into this special anymore after this change?
Notably, Lua strings with NULs now convert to Blobs when passed to VimL.
Problem: Cannot handle binary data.
Solution: Add the Blob type. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto, closesvim/vim#3638)
6e5ea8d2a9
Nvim-specific Blob conversions are implemented in future commits.
Refactor write_blob() to use a FileDescriptor, as f_writefile() was
refactored to use one (does not apply to read_blob()).
Use var_check_lock() in f_add() for Blobs from v8.1.0897.
Add a modeline to test_blob.vim and fix some doc typos.
Include if_perl.txt's VIM::Blob() documentation. Interestingly, this
function already worked before this port, as it just returns a Blob
string literal, not an actual Blob object.
N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:8.1.0741: viminfo with Blob is not tested
Problem: Viminfo with Blob is not tested.
Solution: Extend the viminfo test. Fix reading a blob. Fixed storing a
special variable value.
8c8b8bb56c
vim-patch:8.1.1022: may use NULL pointer when out of memory
Problem: May use NULL pointer when out of memory. (Coverity)
Solution: Check for blob_alloc() returning NULL.
e142a9467a
Problem: Cannot use octal numbers in scriptversion 4.
Solution: Add the "0o" notation. (Ken Takata, closesvim/vim#5304)
c17e66c5c0
:scriptversion is N/A.
Cherry-pick latest str2nr() doc changes from v8.1.2035.
Cherry-pick various mentions of the 0o prefix from:
- v8.2.2324
- 2346a63784
- 11e3c5ba82
- 82be4849ee
Patch used ascii_isbdigit() by mistake, which was fixed in v8.2.2309.
Make STR2NR_OOCT work the same as STR2NR_OCT when forcing.
In Vim, STR2NR_FORCE | STR2NR_OOCT isn't handled, and doesn't actually
force anything. Rather than abort(), make it work as STR2NR_OCT.
This means STR2NR_FORCE | STR2NR_OCT works the same as
STR2NR_FORCE | STR2NR_OOCT and STR2NR_FORCE | STR2NR_OCT | STR2NR_OOCT.
Problem: Recognizing octal numbers is confusing.
Solution: Introduce scriptversion 4: do not use octal and allow for single
quote inside numbers.
60a8de28d1
:scriptversion is N/A.
Cherry-pick Test_readfile_binary() from v8.1.0742.
Note that this patch was missing vim_str2nr() changes, and so fails the
tests; this was fixed in v8.1.2036.
Problem: Cannot enforce a Vim script style.
Solution: Add the :scriptversion command. (closesvim/vim#3857)
558ca4ae55
:scriptversion is N/A, but ":let ..=" is relevant.
N/A patches for version.c
vim-patch:8.1.1188: not all Vim variables require the v: prefix
Problem: Not all Vim variables require the v: prefix.
Solution: When scriptversion is 3 all Vim variables can only be used with
the v: prefix. (Ken Takata, closesvim/vim#4274)
d2e716e6df
vim-patch:8.1.1190: has('vimscript-3') does not work
Problem: has('vimscript-3') does not work.
Solution: Add "vimscript-3" to the list of features.
93a4879c20
vim-patch:8.1.2038: has('vimscript-4') is always 0
Problem: has('vimscript-4') is always 0.
Solution: Add "vimscript-4" to the feature table. (Naruhiko Nishino,
closesvim/vim#4941)
af91438338
In particular:
- jobwait: omitting {timeout} arg is the same as -1.
- sockconnect: omitting {opts} arg is the same as {}.
- jobsend: obsoleted by chansend; don't mention it in job_control.txt.
- menu_get: add to |functions| table.
[skip ci]
Problem: More functions can be used as methods.
Solution: Make a few more functions usable as a method.
64b4d73524
Note that the old-style version of Test_byteidx() was already translated
to a Lua test in 069_multibyte_formatting_spec.lua. Keep both versions,
using Test_byteidx() to mainly test the method call syntax for byteidx()
and byteidxcomp().
Problem: More functions can be used as methods.
Solution: Make various functions usable as a method.
073e4b92e6
test_popup.vim already has the changes from this patch (they're N/A
anyway).
Problem: More functions can be used as methods.
Solution: Make float functions usable as a method.
93cf85f9ef
Fix atan2() doc typo (patch referred to it as atan()).
Adjust Test_fmod() method test to expect "str2float('nan')".
Problem: Cannot use a lambda as a method.
Solution: Implement ->{lambda}(). (closesvim/vim#4768)
22a0c0c4ec
Add an additional lua_funcname argument to call_func_rettv() to maintain
support for v:lua.
A memory leak was introduced with this patch that was fixed in
v8.1.2107.
Problem: More functions can be used as a method.
Solution: Add append(), appendbufline(), assert_equal(), etc.
Also add the :eval command.
25e42231d3
:eval is already ported.
Problem: All builtin functions are global.
Solution: Add the method call operator ->. Implemented for a limited number
of functions.
ac92e25a33
- Note that to *exactly* port hunk @@ -7376,18 +7444,19 from
handle_subscript(), we need the :scriptversion patches (I have an open
PR for those, but this patch works fine without them anyway).
- Port call_internal_func() from v7.4.2058.
- Adjust some error messages in tests, as they rely on the Blob patches.
- Add a modeline to test_method.vim.
Ignore the global_functions and base_method tables and prefer the
current GPerf implementation. Instead, add an extra base_arg field to
VimLFuncDef that holds the number of the argument to use as the base
(1-indexed, so that 0 may be used to refer to functions that cannot be
used as methods).
This also means we support using any argument as a base from the get-go,
rather than just the first (Vim includes this ability in future patches,
however).
To mark a function as usable as a method, use the "base" key as
described in eval.lua.
Problem: win_gettype() does not recognize a quickfix window.
Solution: Add "quickfix" and "loclist". (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#8676)
28d8421bfb
Problem: Location list only has the start position.
Solution: Make it possible to add an end position. (Shane-XB-Qian,
closesvim/vim#8393)
6864efa596
N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:8.2.3002: Vim doesn't abort on a fatal Tcl error
Problem: Vim doesn't abort on a fatal Tcl error.
Solution: Change emsg() to iemsg(). (Dominique Pellé, closesvim/vim#8383)
affd0bc626
vim-patch:8.2.3030: Coverity reports a memory leak
Problem: Coverity reports a memory leak.
Solution: Fix the leak and a few typos. (Dominique Pellé, closesvim/vim#8418)
cb54bc6562
Patch v8.2.3022 is mostly N/A but cannot be included here
because of new feature check for "has()".
vim-patch:8.2.3032: build problems with MSVC, other crypt issues with libsodium
Problem: Build problems with MSVC, other crypt issues with libsodium.
Solution: Adjust MSVC makefile. Disable swap file only when 'key' is set.
Adjust error message used when key is wrong. Fix Coverity issues.
(Christian Brabandt, closesvim/vim#8420, closesvim/vim#8411)
226b28b961
vim-patch:8.2.3044: Amiga MorphOS and AROS: process ID is not valid
Problem: Amiga MorphOS and AROS: process ID is not valid.
Solution: Use FindTask to return something which is unique to all processes.
(Ola Söder, closesvim/vim#8444)
3a62b14077
vim-patch:8.2.3046: Amiga MorphOS: Term mode is set using DOS packets
Problem: Amiga MorphOS: Term mode is set using DOS packets.
Solution: Use the same way of setting term mdoe on all next gen Amiga-like
systems. (Ola Söder, closesvim/vim#8445)
b420ac9d20
Problem: Using getchar() in Vim9 script is problematic.
Solution: Add getcharstr(). (closesvim/vim#8343)
3a7503c34c
Cherry-pick Test_getchar() changes from patch v8.1.2304
to sync with upstream.
Port f_getcharstr() to src/nvim/eval/funcs.c, not src/nvim/getchar.c.
Patch v8.1.2042 is not ported yet.
Some programs behave differently when they detect that stdin is being
piped. This can be problematic when these programs are used with the job
control API where stdin is attached, but not typically used. It is
possible to run the job using a PTY which circumvents this problem, but
that includes a lot of overhead when simply closing the stdin pipe would
suffice.
To enable this behavior, add a new parameter to the jobstart options
dict called "stdin" with two valid values: "pipe" (the default)
implements the existing behavior of opening a channel for stdin and
"null" which disconnects stdin (or, if you prefer, connects it to
/dev/null). This is extensible so that other modes can be added in the
future.
Problem: Cannot use "z=" when 'spell' is off.
Solution: Make "z=" work even when 'spell' is off. (Christian Brabandt,
Gary Johnson, closesvim/vim#6227)
152e79e94b
Problem: It is not possible to customize the quickfix window contents.
Solution: Add 'quickfixtextfunc'. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#5465)
858ba06d5f
Problem: Cannot get the search statistics.
Solution: Add the searchcount() function. (Fujiwara Takuya, closesvim/vim#4446)
e8f5ec0d30
Additional changes:
- Tests weren't passing because the test ran assuming the cursor was at
start of buffer but append() left the cursor at end of buffer .
So cursor is moved to start of buffer after append.
- searchcount() added to list of builtin functions.
Update runtime files.
cb80aa2d53
Omit runtime/doc/tabpage.txt.
Patch v8.2.1401 is not ported yet.
Port optwin.vim changes without gettext().
Patch v8.2.1544 is not ported yet.
Problem: Mixing up "long long" and __int64 may cause problems. (John
Marriott)
Solution: Pass varnumber_T to vim_snprintf(). Add v:numbersize.
f9706e9df0
Problem: The eval.txt help file is too big.
Solution: Split off testing support to testing.txt. Move function details
to where the functionality is explained.
ed997adaa1
Vim commit 5477506a9f01d40fad2e8f0555bc37adee30478f
contains the duplicate tag fix in runtime/doc/testing.txt.
Problem: Cannot read back the prompt of a prompt buffer.
Solution: Add prompt_getprompt(). (Ben Jackson, closesvim/vim#6851)
077cc7aa0e
Updated prompt_getprompt() doc to cb80aa2d53
and removed mention of method syntax usage (not supported by Nvim).
Problem: Cannot sort using locale ordering.
Solution: Add a flag for :sort and sort() to use the locale. (Dominique
Pellé, closesvim/vim#7237)
55e29611d2
Replacement for Vim's test_null_string().
Vim uses it to verify that its codebase handles null strings.
Preparation for the Test_null_list() in patch v8.2.1822.
Use v:_null_string, not non-existent env var, for null string tests.
Mention v:_null_string in id() because id(v:_null_string) returns (nil).
...signs is slow
Problem: Placing a larger number of signs is slow.
Solution: Add functions for dealing with a list of signs. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closes#4636)
Problem: When 'matchpairs' is empty every character beeps. (Marco Hinz)
Solution: Bail out when no character in 'matchpairs' was found.
(closesvim/vim#8053) Add assert_nobeep().
5b8cabfef7
Problem: shiftwidth() does not take 'vartabstop' into account.
Solution: Use the cursor position or a position explicitly passed.
Also make >> and << work better with 'vartabstop'. (Christian
Brabandt)
f951416a83
Problem: Cannot parse a date/time string.
Solution: Add strptime(). (Stephen Wall, closes #)
10455d43fe
N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:8.1.2344: Cygwin: warning for using strptime()
Problem: Cygwin: warning for using strptime().
Solution: Move defining _XOPEN_SOURCE and __USE_XOPEN to vim.h. (Ken Takata,
closesvim/vim#5265) Use 700 for _XOPEN_SOURCE for mkdtemp().
6a228c6463
Problem: Named function arguments are never optional.
Solution: Support optional function arguments with a default value. (Andy
Massimino, closesvim/vim#3952)
42ae78cfff
Problem: Can't get the exit value in VimLeave or VimLeavePre autocommands.
Solution: Add v:exiting like in Neovim. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#7395)
f0068c5154
Rearrange VimVarIndex enums and vimvars[] entries to sync with Vim.
N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:8.2.2535: MS-Windows: cannot run all vim9 tests
Problem: MS-Windows: cannot run all vim9 tests.
Solution: Make test_vim9 target work.
723ef5db98
Before #12937, the only way to specify the `$TERM` for a pty job was
through the `TERM` key in the job's opts dict. This was shuttled to the
child process throug a special field on the PtyProcess object and
injected into the environment after forking.
Now that we have a proper way to specify the environment for a job, we
can simply ensure that the env dict has a proper `TERM` set and avoid
the extra shuttling of data around.
This deprecates the use of the `TERM` option, but will still honor it if
present, although at a lower priority than a `TERM` present in the env
dict.
This also fixes#13874 because we're no longer trying to overwrite
`TERM` in the env dict with the special pty `term_name`. Doing so
raises an internal error because of the existing key which, under
certain circumstances, would cause the "hit enter" prompt. However,
since the child process had already forked, there was no way for the
user to acknowledge the prompt and we would just hang there.
Problem: Cannot easily get all the current marks.
Solution: Add getmarklist(). (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closes#6032)
cfb4b47de0
Cherry-pick the column number fix from patch v8.2.0871
because patch v8.2.0871 cannot be fully ported
without the method patches.
