Explicitly try to find the static libuv library first.
This might be considered a hack and if it weren't a single-use module it
might be preferable to control static versus shared preferences with a
configuration variable.
We use the standard CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH variable to pass the location of
.deps as a search location on the command line. There is now no need for
explicitly hard-coding it.
The CMake prefix path is the set of directories CMake searches for
libraries, header files, etc. Use the .deps directory we create when
building libuv as one of those locations.
This commit removes a K&R promoted parameter error, the final warning
I have when building.
I realize that this creates only one function that is written in a
different style, but I thought it might be worth it to have a warning
free build.
See #137 for the issue.
Every header in the proto directory was:
* Given include guards in the form
#ifndef NEOVIM_FILENAME_H
#define NEOVIM_FILENAME_H
...
#endif /* NEOVIM_FILENAM_H */
* Renamed from *.pro -> *.h
* Moved from src/proto/ to src/
This would have caused conficts with some existing headers in src/;
rather than merge these conflicts now (which is a whole other can of
worms involving multiple and conditional inclusion), any header in src/
with a conflicting name was renamed from *.h -> *_defs.h (which may or
may not actually describe its purpose, the change is purely a
namespacing issue).
Once all of these changes were made a script was developed to determine
what #includes needed to be added to each source file to describe its
dependencies and allow it to compile; because the script is so short
and I'll just list it here:
#! /bin/bash
cd $(dirname $0)
# Scrapes `make` output for provided error messages and outputs #includes
# needed to resolve them.
# $1 : part of the clang error message between filename and identifier
list_missing_includes() {
for file_missing_pair in $(CC=clang make 2>&1 >/dev/null | sed -n "s/\/\(.*\.[hc]\).*$1.*'\(.*\)'.*/\1:\2/p"); do
fields=(${file_missing_pair//:/ })
source_file=${fields[0]}
missing_func=${fields[1]}
# Try to find the declaration of the missing function.
echo $(basename $source_file) \
\#include \"$(grep -r "\b$missing_func __ARGS" | sed -n "s/.*\/\(.*\)\:.*/\1/p")\"
# Remove duplicates
done | sort | uniq
}
echo "Finding missing function prototypes..."
list_missing_includes "implicit declaration of function"
echo "Finding missing identifier declarations..."
list_missing_includes "use of undeclared identifier"
Each list of required headers was added by hand in the following format:
#include "vim.h"
#include "*_defs.h"
#include "filename.h"
/* All other includes in same module here, in alphabetical order. */
/* All includes from other modules (e.g. "os/*.h") here in alphabetical
* order. */
Although CMAKE_FLAGS was already a Makefile variable, it didn't have an
empty default value meaning that extending the flags to CMake in a clean
way was difficult. Add a CMAKE_EXTRA_FLAGS variable which is appended to
the default flags.
This simply calls the install target in the build directory. IMHO I
think it's looking a bit hacky having a separate Makefile target to do
this rather than using the usual CMake workflow but mine is not to
reason why... [Also, I've copied ``cd build && make ...`` although I'm
sure ``$MAKE -C build/ ...`` is probably the Right Thing (TM).]
Note that you'll have to set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX on the cmake command
line to change where this installs to.
Now it checks for the existance of curl after
failing to find wget.
Note that I ended up removing the quotes around $url
when referencing it in the call to wget, since urls can't have spaces
anyways, and the correct quoting was messy.
To test, I did
rm -r .deps
make clean
make cmake
make
And it worked.
CMake ships with a standard FindThreads module which can be used to a)
test for a threading library and b) confirm that it is pthread. It also
allows the hard-coding of the threading library name to be removed from
``src/CMakeLists.txt``.
Make it an error not to have a pthread library installed and indicate to
CMake that we strongly prefer pthread to any other platform threading
library.
cproto (http://invisible-island.net/cproto/) was used to do the bulk of
the work in batch; even the most recent version had some issues with
typedef'd parameters; a quick "patch" was to modify `lex.l` to
explicitly include all vim typedefs as known types. One example from
`vim.h` is
typedef unsigned char char_u;
which was added in `lex.l` as
<INITIAL>char_u { save_text_offset(); return T_CHAR; }
Even with these changes there were some problems:
* Two files (`mbyte.c` and `os_unix.c`) were not cleanly converted.
* Any function with the `UNUSED` macro in its parameter list was not converted.
Rather than spend more time fixing the automated approach, the two files
`mbyte.c` and `os_unix.c` were converted by hand.
The `UNUSED` macros were compiler specific, and the alternative, generic
version would require a different syntax, so in order to simplify the
conversion all uses of `UNUSED` were stripped, and then the sources were
run back through cproto. It is planned to reconsider each use of
`UNUSED` manually using a new macro definition.
Add a brief README on the purpose of the third-party directory and some
suggestions for how to manage it. The neovim bigwigs may want to
re-draft the README.
