147 * changed 'name' method on namespaces to 'get_name' per pdd21
154 * added C<isnull> opcode
161 * added :init pragma functionality to subs
164 * added :vtable pragma functionality to subs
167 * added Parrot::Embed under ext/Parrot-Embed
170 * remove the None PMC - if needed it can trivially be reimplemented
171 in languages from r14189
174 Merged Software Transactional Memory branch into trunk, adds:
175 * several new opcodes whose names start with stm_
176 * read-only PMC support
177 * several new PMC types (whose names start with STM*)
178 * support for threads (again)
185 * opcodes: "in PMC" is no longer a synonym for "invar PMC";
186 there are opcodes now that want the real "in PMC".
187 * namespace and global opcodes now accept name arrays again, as
188 well as keys; the corresponding namespace PMC methods are gone.
191 * Parrot_exit, Parrot_on_exit take now an Interp * argument
194 * add experimental op find_type_i_p
195 * fix longstanding bug that sometimes didn't encode pasm keys as
196 Key PMCs (specifically "[S0]" and "['stringliteral']").
199 further implementation of new pdd21:
200 * new opcodes {get,set}*global
201 (old {find,store}*global will be supported for a short while)
204 * --maintainer prerequesites are now bison 2.2+ and flex 2.5.3x
206 (at the moment code is checking for 2.0 -- ambs)
209 partial implementation of new pdd21:
210 * old: "get_namespace KEY". new: "get_hll_namespace KEY"
211 * get_namespace and find_global opcodes no longer accept arrays
212 of strings. To use arrays, call namespace object methods.

475 * Moved the registers out of the context structure, since they
476 really aren't context
477 * Changed the register stack frames to hold only 16 registers
478 rather than 32, added half-set push and pop ops, and reworked
479 the full set push/pops to do two half-set push/pops. Should

481 care about the top half of the registers anyway.
482 * Started committing some of the new class/object framework
483 * Remembered to finally start updating the Changelog
488 Update Yet Another copyright statements to reflect the (no longer

635 * types/: bignum.c, bignum_atest.pl: Added a couple of quick routes
636 through addition and subtraction. Also added the ability to run

740 mistake until the pmc subdirectory, where the first qr// is

1141 and opcode_t > longs will now be even more suspect than what they
1142 were beforehand. 2) Feel free to bicker with names. I don't think
1143 we've come to *any* sort of agreement with these, although we
1144 really, really, need to. 3) I forget the third thing. 4) But I
1145 thought of a fourth. 5) I've now remembered the third thing: IIRC,
1146 ANSI C states that enums will fit within the smallest type (int or
1147 greater) that can hold the values. Is that actually correct, and
1148 does it state whether unsigned is preferred to signed for
1149 non-negative enums? 6) Since I'm no longer constrained by "three"
1150 or "quick", I'm going size_t happy for a lot of memory-related
1151 storage. (That's good. No sense wasting the size or performance
1152 of an UINTVAL for strange values of UINTVAL.) I'm also using it in
1153 a couple other internal things (like the GC stat counters, seen
1154 here). Size and performance, again, and unpromotable to a bigint,
1155 so we know that we (theoretically) will wrap. However, size_t
1156 isn't the best choice for the type. (Not that there's anything
1157 wrong with size_t, just that it shouldn't be called size_t.) Any
1158 thoughts? I was thinking of just doing unsigned int, because,
1159 IIRC, int is usually the natural word size, and will be most
1160 efficient. Thoughts? 7) I forgot what the fourth thing I thought
1161 of was while writing down the others. Sorry.

1424 I wanted a common baseline before I make any (potential) semantic
1427 There's only one semi-major change, which noone needs to worry
1428 about just yet. That's a change from PDD Format 1 to PDD Format
1429 6.0 - rationale can be found under 'Standard (Version #)' of the
1430 STANDARDS TRACK infomation. Don't worry about this yet, because it
1431 should be 6.0.0, and we need to discuss Perl versus Parrot with

1449 Buffers. But, then, we don't have pool allocation for Buffers
1450 either, and we need to have that soonish for this to work.

1453 memory or STRING structs only accessible from PMCs, you'll fail
1454 horribly. That needs fixing too

1511 * global_setup.c, memory.c, resources.c, string.c,
1512 include/parrot/resources.h: Allocate STRING headers from an arena
1513 with freelist rather than with the system malloc. First step in a
1514 good (or even a bad) GC system.

1522 * types/bignum.c: BN_multiply split into BN_multiply and
1523 BN_imultiply, the internal version to be used by idivide so that
1524 rounding isn't performed during intermediate stages of division.
1526 following test scripts now all pass: divide divideint add multiply
1527 subtract remainder compare rounding plus minus (these are all the
1528 operations currently implemented, rescale and power must still be
1529 written, so don't pass right now).

1535 Currently a few rounding tests fail, which are being investigated.

1539 * key.c: Although there's more work being done on the key stuff and
1540 this isn't the final fix, applying this patch does get parrot to
1541 build with two more compilers, so it's probably worthwhile.

1608 working borland compiler (compiler must know where to find headers
1609 and libs) - Perl's Config.pm modified to use cc='bcc32.exe' not of
1610 cc='cl.exe' - a working make utility (borland make doesn't work,
1613 changes: - add bcc in hints/mswin32.pl - clean up for msvc++ in
1614 hints/mswin32.pl - remove a space from Configure.pl (very very
1615 important for bcc) - add a O_BINARY flag to open() in pdump.c,
1616 embed.c (required by bcc) - define O_BINARY 0 when it's not defined
1617 (win32 knows it, linux not)
1619 and the why: - parrot is MUCH faster when compiled with borland c

2108 format of vtable.tbl to get rid of the tab-dependence. The format
2109 now looks roughly like this:
2111 init() # 'void' and 'unique' are assumed INTVAL type ( ) # 'unique'
2112 is assumed str void concatenate (PMC* value, PMC* dest) # Nothing
2113 assumed here, but note the C-like prototyping. Also had to disable
2114 one test that depended upon 'concat_p_p_s', which isn't necessary
2117 Vtable.pm will change again when the type '_keyed' is added,
2118 because that requires remapping parameters slightly differently
2119 again. Also, note that it assumes 'value' is the first parameter
2120 in the list. This assumption will go away at the same time.

2124 * core.ops, t/pmc/perlstring.t, t/pmc/pmc.t: More tests for pmc
2125 functions. Thanks to Simon Glover.
2127 2002-02-04 02:47 ajgough
2129 * hints/os2.pl: Removes a flag from the os/2 hints file that isn't
2130 needed. I suspect that the entire hints file isn't really needed,
2131 but there's no one to actually tell us this.

2137 2002-02-02 04:06 jgoff
2139 * classes/: array.pmc, intqueue.pmc, perlarray.pmc, perlhash.pmc:
2140 Moving the internal KEY structure from the cache.struct_val member,
2141 where it doesn't really belong, to the internal SELF->data member.
2142 This frees up the cache/type members for other usage.
2144 This is the first step in moving PMCs to the point where we can do
2145 multidimensional PMC handles. The next step is to change the
2146 assembler to accept the syntax of 'set P0["foo"],7'.

2212 * Makefile.in: Dependencies in the Makefile are currently too broad
2213 brush. I don't enjoy waiting for everything to recompile every
2214 time I try to tweak the jit. The only file that #includes
2215 jit_struct.h is jit.c, so I feel that the Makefile dependencies
2216 should reflect this, and not cause a gratuitous recompile of
2217 everything. There are probably other auto-generated header files
2218 that world+dog should not depend on.

2229 see how broken predereferencing is.
2231 * testj: Like 'make test', but passes -j to t/harness, so you get
2233 see how broken JIT is.
2235 Now, anyone who wants to see how good all three ways of running are
2236 can do so, at the cost of about 3x the time.

2279 change the control flow.
2281 2002-01-30 22:13 dan
2283 * Configure.pl, MANIFEST, testparrotfuncptr.c: This patch allows
2284 parrot to mostly-build with tcc. It allows one to skip compiling
2285 the JIT stuff (by specifying --define jitcapable=0), and it
2286 introduces a test program which gives a friendlier error in this
2287 case for compilers which are as picky as tcc is about function
2290 If anyone figures out the proper way to cast these function
2291 pointers this may not be necessary.

3007 chartypes/usascii.c: This patch adds a few more macros for .ops
3008 files to use. In addition to the existing
3022 This is intended mainly for use in helper functions in .ops files,
3023 but also for ops that need to eg push the address of the next
3024 opcode onto a stack. The only place this currently happens (outside
3025 of my private code) is in the bsr opcode, which previously
3026 hardcoded the computation.
3028 This patch also makes ops2c.pl move the CUR_OPCODE #define a bit
3029 higher in the generated file so that it can be used by static
3030 functions in the preamble.
3032 Finally, I ran into a parentheses matching problem -- should goto
3033 OFFSET(...) rewrite \bgoto\s+OFFSET\((.*)\) or
3034 \bgoto\s+OFFSET\((.*?)\)
3036 It was done inconsistently for the different calculations, and of
3037 course neither are correct because you really want matching
3038 parentheses. But that seems like too much bother. (Currently,
3039 there's only one place that uses anything other than $n in the
3040 parentheses, and that's the enternative() op.) So I made them all
3041 .*? but emulated recent POD by also allowing (( ... )) (that's two
3042 parenthesis with a space padding the body.)
3044 The generated core_ops.c and core_ops_prederef.c files after this
3045 patch are identical except for the CUR_OPCODE and REL_PC macros
3046 getting moved a little higher, and the bsr in the regular path (not
3047 prederef) uses 'CUR_OPCODE' instead of the hardcoded 'cur_opcode'.
3049 In summary, this is a big wad of meaningless changes for the
3050 current code. But it will make adding some opcodes easier in the
3051 future, and cleans up a small nit in the current bsr.

3090 4 (the highest, one above the default level 3). It turns off two
3091 level-4 warnings for 'unreferenced formal parameter' and 'named
3092 type definition in parentheses', the latter of which was turning up
3093 warnings in MS VC headers. Level 4 warnings also helped me find a
3094 couple of other lurking bugs in the parrot code.
3096 Replaces the various fprintf/exit combos with calls to
3097 internal_exception, which uses var_args to emulate printf. Various
3098 exception types were added as well. These are probably temporary
3099 until a real exception system arrives.

3102 called, or put into the vtable.

4409 Parrot/BuildUtil.pm, Parrot/OpsFile.pm, lib/Parrot/BuildUtil.pm,
4410 lib/Parrot/OpsFile.pm, include/parrot/oplib.h:
4411 Build enhancements. Originally to support building shared
4412 libraries, but now of broader impact.
4414 * .cvsignore: Ignore the blib/ directory, about which more later.
4418 * Got rid of TAB formatting and lined a few things up.
4420 * Added header comment with CVS Id variable, and a few other
4421 block header comments.
4423 * Uses new Parrot::BuildUtil module to determine the Parrot
4426 * Reworded a few messages, added a couple, and wrapped
4430 * Added 2002 to the Copyright statement.
4432 * Added new configure variables: VERSION, MAJOR, MINOR and
4435 NOTE: Please see the 'Alas perl5.7.2' comment. 5.7.2 is
4437 than 5.6.0, but the comment implies it isn't.
4441 * Added $(SO), $(A) and $(AR_CRS) defines for library
4444 * Added $(RM_RF) define for removing directory trees
4446 * Grouped generated files into two classes: "sticky" (made by
4448 persisting across 'make clean') and 'fluid' (made during
4450 process, deleted by 'make clean').
4452 * Added header comments.
4454 * Added target for test_prog linked with shared library.
4456 * Added rules to build shared libraries in blib/lib. The
4458 built with trailing version numbers in their file names,
4460 symbolic links are created for shorter and no version tag
4463 * Added some missing dependencies
4465 * Added some missing 'make clean' targets.
4467 * Added 'make realclean' target that deletes files created by
4468 Configure.pl (including Makefile), forcing a re-configure.
4470 * Added a 'status' CVS target.
4472 * VERSION: New file, contains only the version. This version
4474 propagated to a few places, such as the core oplib version
4476 reduces the amount of coordination that has to happen to get
4478 number stuff throughout the tree in sync and updated prior to
4480 a new release. Feel free to grep for '0.0.3' to see the other
4482 that contain the version number (but, do that in a fresh CVS
4484 after doing 'make realclean').
4486 * config_h.in: Renamed PARROT_CORE_OPLIB_*_VERSION to
4488 since the oplib and Parrot itself share a version number now.
4490 PARROT_PATCH_VERSION (the third component) and PARROT_VERSION
4494 * core.ops: Uses new notation "VERSION = PARROT_VERSION" instead
4496 specifying the version by hand. Non-core oplibs will set this
4498 a quoted dot-string with three natural number components
4502 * interpreter.c: Make use of PARROT_VERSION to simplify some
4504 to get the complete version number in the resulting strings
4508 * make_vtable_ops.pl: Put the "VERSION = PARROT_VERSION" line int
4512 * obscure.ops: Use the new "VERSION = PARROT_VERSION" technique.
4514 * ops2c.pl: Account for the PATCH version, too. This affects the
4516 oplib init function, and the oplib info struct initializer.
4518 * Parrot/BuildUtil.pm: New file for reading in and validating the
4520 the new VERSION file. Other build utilities could go here in
4523 * Parrot/OpsFile.pm:
4525 * Allow three components in version number, and require that
4527 be in double quotes.
4529 * Allow "VERSION = PARROT_VERSION", substituting the shared
4531 VERSION in that case.
4533 * include/parrot/oplib.h: Add the patch_version member.

4592 * core.ops, t/op/hacks.t: Added in the readline op, as well as
4593 changing the open op to use fopen under the hood.
4595 THESE OPS ARE EVIL! AND TEMPORARY! USE FOR DEBUGGING PURPOSES ONLY!

4601 include/parrot/exceptions.h, include/parrot/string.h,
4602 t/op/pmc_perlstring.t, t/op/string.t, t/pmc/perlstring.t: Added
4603 repeat op, so that "foo" x 10 can be done. Filled in PerlString
4604 vtables appropriately. Also tests for same, new pmc_perlstring.t
4605 to hold tests specific to PerlStrings, as the pmc.t file is taking
4606 too long to run and slowing down my thought processes.
4608 Changes to strings.c etc to take string functions.
4610 Some changes to the strings docs, but not yet complete.
4612 Also, PerlString was copying pointers to strings, rather than
4613 strings themselves, so some action-at-a-distance bugs were creeping
4614 in, I think I've fixed this so everything works nicely.

4678 Added if_s_ic op, to use same * Added (PerlString)->get_bool stuff
4679 to perlstring.pmc * Tests for above, also a for couple of other
4682 The unicode chartype has only had placeholders added for get_digit,
4683 string_to_num has been updated to use type->get_digit rather than
4684 the previous ascii-isms. Some remain, but we need to carefully
4685 define what we mean by a number before we let thousands of code
4686 points act as a minus sign.

4709 Initial code for dynamic loading of oplibs, applied for now to the
4710 loading of the core_prederef oplib when the -P flag is passed to
4713 * MANIFEST: Added entry for the new file include/parrot/oplib.h.
4717 * Added libcore_prederef_0_3.so to the shared target.
4718 * Added build rule for libcore_prederef_0_3.so.
4719 * Added dependencies on Parrot/OpsFile.pm and Parrot/Op.pm
4720 to Parrot/OpLib/core.pm, core_ops.c and
4721 core_ops_prederef.c.
4723 * config_h.in: Added defines for constants used to locate the
4724 core oplib's init function, and the core_prederef oplib for
4727 * core.ops: Added a VERSION = 0.3 line near the top. This is now
4728 required by Parrot/OpsFile.pm.
4732 * Added init_prederef() and stop_prederef() functions to load
4733 and unload the core_prederef oplib when we are in prederef
4736 NOTE: In all likelihood, the prederef stuff has a rapidly
4737 dwindling time-to-live. The JIT should provide vastly
4739 performance, and loading an alternate set of core_ops isn't
4740 the real direction for the dynaloading stuff. Loading
4741 *additional* ops is. It does provide a handy test case for
4743 general idea for now, though.
4745 * Gets the core copcode table, etc. via the core oplibs oplib
4746 info pointer, as returned by the core oplib's init
4751 * Make use of the version, major version and minor version
4752 stuff parsed by Parrot/OpsFile.pm
4754 * The only exported symbol in the generated files is the init
4755 function now, since that returns an oplib info struct
4756 pointer, and all the important stuff can be found there.
4758 * ops2pm.pl: Put the oplib version in the generated .pm file.
4760 * test_main.c: Small changes necessitated by changes in the names
4761 of some members of the interpreter struct.
4763 * trace.c: Small changes necessitated by changes in the names
4764 of some members of the interpreter struct.

4772 * include/parrot/interpreter.h: Include the new
4773 include/parrot/oplib.h header. Small changes to the oplib-
4776 * include/parrot/oplib.h: Define the type of the oplib init
4777 function, and the struct type for the oplib info.
4779 * platforms/*.[hc]: Remove the second argument to Parrot_dlopen()
4780 since not all platforms have it. For those that do, a default
4781 second argument is provided.

4796 Some more JIT work from Daniel Grunblatt.
4798 * Ops added set_s_s, set_s_sc, bsr_i and eq_s_sc but using calls
4802 * Added JUMP(END) to place the number of bytes to the end of the
4806 * The *.jit files syntax changed.
4808 * Added jit/i386/lib.jit to place handly functions as jump that
4810 argument the address where is the opcode number to jump to.
4812 * There is a bug at some point, but I will start writing
4813 jit/i386/string.jit and jit/i386/stacks.jit so that we don't
4815 calls, which make the jit as slow as the interpreter.

4852 Changes to syntax of .ops files and refactoring of ops2c*.pl and
4855 * Removed ops2c-prederef.pl
4857 * (unrelated) Removed vestigial Parrot/Opcode.pm file.
4859 * Added Parrot/OpTrans.pm, Parrot/OpTrans/C.pm (needed for old
4860 functionality of ops2c.pl), Parrot/OpTrans/CPrederef.pm (needed
4861 for old functionality of ops2c-prederef.pl), and
4862 Parrot/OpTrans/CGoto.pm (needed for functionality of pbc2c.pl).
4864 "OpTrans" == "Op Transformation"
4866 * Makefile.in modifications to call "ops2c.pl C" where it used
4867 to be just "ops2c.pl", and "ops2c.pl CPrederef" where it used
4868 to be "ops2c-prederef.pl".
4870 * core.ops and obscure.ops changes to syntax. Semantics are
4871 identical with previous version:
4873 return HALT --> HALT()
4874 return AUTO --> goto NEXT()
4875 return RETREL(...) --> goto OFFSET(...)
4876 return RESTART(*) --> restart NEXT()
4878 Also, pop_generic_entry() stuff (local var + 5 lines of code)
4879 for dest-less branch ops replaced with new notation "goto
4881 which uses the new pop_dest() function in stacks.c. This also
4882 allowed these ops to become 'inline' ops, since they no longer
4883 have local variables.
4885 The 'ret' op also became simplified to just "goto POP()", and
4886 also became an inline op.
4888 * interpreter.c reflects the change in type name:
4890 prederef_op_func_t --> op_func_prederef_t
4892 that occurred in include/parrot/op.h
4894 * make_vtable_ops.pl uses "goto NEXT()" where it used to use
4897 * ops2c.pl is now generic. Its first argument is the last
4898 package name component of a subclass of Parrot::OpTrans. These
4899 subclasses all have full names of the form Parrot::OpTrans::*.
4900 An instance of the class is created and later consulted for
4901 various bits of information needed to generate the C code.
4903 * pbc2c.pl now uses an instance of Parrot::OpTrans::CGoto to
4904 contain its transformation rules.
4906 * stacks.c has a new function pop_dest() that pops a destination
4907 off the control stack. include/parrot/stacks.h has the
4910 * Parrot/Op.pm now supports the syntax generated by
4912 for the "goto POP" case.
4914 Also, the source() method now expects its second argument to be
4915 an object that ISA Parrot::OpTrans. Methods of this object are
4916 called to perform the substitutions.
4918 * Parrot/OpsFile.pm supports the change in notation mentioned
4921 * docs/intro.pod reflects these changes.
4923 * include/parrot/op.h: Renamed type prederef_op_func_t to
4924 op_func_prederef_t because it made the implementation of the
4925 shared ops2c.pl easier.
4927 2001-12-21 13:47 gregor

5042 * interpreter.c, include/parrot/interp_guts.h:
5043 Performance improvements to the predereferencing code path
5044 suggested to me over lunch yesterday by my friend John Kennedy.
5045 The goal is to remove the additional test in the inner loop that
5046 was checking for NULL to decide whether or not to call the
5047 prederef() function. Also moved pc & pc_prederef syncing outside
5050 * Changed the prototype of the prederef() function in
5051 interpreter.c to match that of an opfunc.
5053 * Instead of initializing the prederef void * array with NULL,
5054 we initialize it with pointers to prederef().
5056 * prederef() now returns the prederef_pc passed in, so that
5057 after predereferencing, the same location is executed, but now
5058 with the real code being called.

5308 Welcome to the Just-in-Time Predereferencing Patch!
5310 This patch implements a "predereferencing" mode for parrot. That
5311 means that a lot of the dereferencing you see in DO_OP and in the
5312 opfuncs is done up front (really, JIT) rather than as and each time
5313 we execute each op in the byte code stream.
5315 This works by creating an array of void pointers with the same
5316 number of elements as the byte code array. This array starts out
5317 life zero-initialized. Each time we go to execute an op, we check
5318 first to see if we have a NULL pointer at *cur_opcode. If so, we
5319 know we haven't done our predereferencing yet (this is the JIT
5320 part), so we call the prederef() function with sufficient args that
5321 it can go look up opfunc pointers and op arg types and put the
5322 opfunc and arg pointers at cur_opcode[0] .. cur_opcode[N - 1],
5323 where N is the number of args (counting the op itself as one arg).
5325 We assume that sizeof(INTVAL) <= sizeof(void *), so we can continue
5326 to have inline INTVAL constants.
5328 I've been getting about a 22% speed increase over vanilla code path
5329 when I compile with -O0. Advantage decreases at -O9 here. I tested
5330 with mops.pbc, and also by temporarily putting the -P flag in
5331 Parrot/Test.pm and running all the tests. So, this code is as
5332 correct as the test suite can detect.
5334 Here's how it plays out in the code:
5336 * New script ops2c-prederef.pl
5338 Copy-paste code reuse from ops2c.pl. Modified to expect the
5340 a void ** cur_opcode and to return a void **.
5344 * opfuncs are now static. Who needs to call them by name from
5346 anyway? They are accessed via the opfunc table.
5348 * Some MACRO stuff to make things work whether we prederef or
5350 may be possible to get rid of these some day if other folks
5352 that we should be using CODE object pointers + offsets as
5354 rather than raw pointers to either opcode_t's or (void *)'s
5355 (depending on prederef mode or no).
5357 * core.ops modified to be usable to build both kinds of opfuncs.
5361 * calls to push_generic_entry(... cur_opcode ...) were
5363 push_generic_entry(... CUR_OPCODE ...), where CUR_OPCODE is
5365 macro that does the right thing in both kinds of ops.c
5368 This is applicable to the bsr op. If we treated
5370 (Code PMC + local offset) rather than as
5371 pointer-to-memory-somewhere,
5372 this wouldn't be a big deal. We may need to do that at some
5374 anyway, so that when you jump around and return not only do
5376 the right PC (pointer, today), but you also have the
5378 knowing what chunk of bytecode it is in at all times
5380 allow reflection, as in ops that query or affect the
5383 * runinterp was modified. Instead of copying the top-level
5385 and blasting its byte_code pointer, we simply call runops
5387 interp, passing in the pointer to the current interp's code
5389 offset into that code at which to start (this last arg used
5391 pointer PC, now its an offset PC).
5393 * include/parrot/op.h
5395 * new typedef for prederef opfuncs (they return void **)
5397 * include/parrot/interp_guts.h
5399 * New DO_OP_PREDEREF() macro described above.
5401 * include/parrot/interpreter.h
5403 * New prototype of runops() -- see below.
5405 * resume_addr field changed to resume_flag and resume_offset
5407 We might be resuming from interp using prederef to one not
5409 so pointers between the two don't play nice together.
5410 Offsets are beautiful.
5412 * New PARROT_PREDEREF_FLAG constant
5416 * include "parrot/oplib/core_ops_prederef.h"
5418 * prederef() function described above.
5420 * runops_prederef() runops variant. Uses DO_OP_PREDEREF()
5423 * runops() modified to take size_t CODE-relative offset PC
5425 pointer PC. This made other things workable and doesn't
5427 anything important (IMO).
5431 * New flag '-P' to enable predereferencing.
5433 * Makefile modified to build core_ops_prederef.c from core.ops
5437 BTW, also added missing $(INC)/interp_guts.h to H_FILES.
5439 Added core_ops_prederef$(O) to O_FILES

5473 seems to be a little less lenient... Missing bits - File
5474 mod/creation times aren't being looked at - Actions
5475 aren't being taken - The few funky variables ($@, $<)

5588 core.ops - Modified to accept the new return style.
5590 This is a prelude to adding virtual-table methods to allow hashing
5591 &c. Expect at least one or two more redesigns before this settles
5592 down. However, it still passes the original tests.

5859 * encodings/singlebyte.c, t/op/pmc.t, t/pmc/pmc.t: A much less
5860 broken form of strtod and appropriate tests. Does not yet check

5865 * string.c, encodings/singlebyte.c, encodings/utf16.c,
5866 encodings/utf8.c, include/parrot/encoding.h: Added length parameter
5867 to extract_num and extract_int string vtables, without this it
5868 would be impossible to have strings with nulls in while still
5869 knowing where they ended.

5890 equality macro rather than using perl to generate expected output,
5891 all tests now have <<OUTPUT.

5895 * t/op/trans.t: Upgraded fp_eq and fp_ne macros to be more useful
5896 for pmc.t as well. Will probably move macros into another file at

5935 expected return values and be more ready to be unperled at some
5936 point in the future. Added $fp_equality_macro which is a
5937 "nearly-equal-to" function.

6403 Patch from Jason Diamond to make win32 platform stuff work:
6405 * Modified Configure.pl, mswin32.pl, and Makefile.in so that the
6406 platform specific files in the platforms directory gets copied to
6407 the correct directories. The Makefile will re-copy the platform.h
6408 and .c files if the original is modified.
6410 * #include platform.h in parrot.h instead of time.h.
6412 * Removed time.h and time.obj from the Makefile. time.h and time.c
6413 aren't being used anymore since that code was moved to linux.c and
6416 * Renamed the BOOL typedef in parrot.h to BOOLVAL (inspired by
6417 INTVAL and FLOATVAL). This was conflicting with the BOOL typedef in
6418 windows.h. This required updating several files besides parrot.h.
6420 * Added a DEFAULT_OPEN_MODE to linux.h and win32.h and used that
6421 instead of the missing identifiers (on Windows) in core.ops in the
6424 * Added Parrot_sleep and Parrot_setenv to both the linux and win32
6425 platform files and called those from core.ops. The Linux code for
6426 these functions came from core.ops so they should hopefully work.

6457 First attempt at getting this working across platforms. The

6461 wrap the appropriate functionality depending upon platform.

6536 wrong size (or, at least that we pop the complete frame off).

6540 and fixed-result-count parts of the calling convention spec.

6701 * examples/assembly/queens.pasm:
6702 * Modernize the calling conventions in queens.pasm. It was using
6704 which now must be rotate. Also, changed to use return values on
6706 stack instead of in I0.
6708 2001-10-19 18:14 gregor
6710 * core.ops, stacks.c, include/parrot/stacks.h,
6711 languages/jako/jakoc:
6712 Per Dan's request, replacing 'swap' op by 'rotate'.
6714 * core.ops: Replaced 'swap()' by 'rotate(i|ic)'.
6716 * stacks.c and stacks.h: Removed swap-related functions from my
6717 prior commit, replacing them with stack_depth(), stack_entry()
6718 and rotate_entries().
6720 NOTE: The stack_depth() and rotate_entries() routines could
6721 be made more efficient through the caching of the sum of chunk
6722 'used' members from lower chunks in a field in the upper
6723 chunks. Also, if the interpreter's stack_base was changed to
6724 hold the pointer to the *top* chunk (since we usually come
6725 at the stack from the top down) instead of the *bottom*
6726 chunk. The code here at least works, and we can decide about
6727 bigger changes separately.
6729 For now, rotate only handles rotates in one direction and
6730 of magnituded one. A fully general rotate would do handle
6731 rotates in both directions and of arbitrary amounts. Again,
6732 this implementation is sufficient for current applications,
6733 and a feature-complete version can be developed if this turns
6734 out to be otherwise the right type of implementation.
6736 This change includes a new exception for ERROR_STACK_SHALLOW,
6737 meaning "not-empty-yet-not-deep-enough-for-what-you-asked".
6739 * jakoc: Changed the calling convention to use rotate instead
6740 of swap (of course). Also changed the convention for return
6741 value passing to use the stack as well.

6750 languages/jako/mandelbrot.jako, languages/jako/mops.jako,
6751 languages/jako/primes.jako, languages/jako/queens.jako,
6752 languages/jako/sub.jako:
6753 * New stack functions push_entry(), pop_entry() and swap_entry().
6754 The first two exist for the support of the last one. These
6755 functions don't care what is in the stack entries. These exist
6756 to support the new 'swap' op (see next bullet).
6758 * New op 'swap' for swapping the top two elements on the stack.
6759 This is necessary for passing arguments to functions, since
6760 the return address will be on top of any arguments that have
6761 been pushed on the stack. This way, you can use a (swap, pop)
6762 pair to retrieve each argument (for subroutine linkage).
6764 * Disassembler now prints numbers in decimal by default, with
6765 a new '-x' flag to turn on hexadecimal display. Since other
6766 members of the Parrot Tool Set use decimal by default, this
6767 makes it easier to compare output from the various tools.
6769 * Jako compiler has more explanatory comments and the following
6772 * Lexically scoped variables.
6774 * Subroutines that take arguments and return values:
6776 sub int foo(int bar) {
6783 * ... if (...) and ... unless (...) statement modifiers
6784 can be used on next, last and redo.
6786 * Bitwise and (&, &=) and or (|, |=) ops.
6788 * Type names are just 'int', 'num', 'str', and 'poly' now.
6789 The old long names 'integer', 'number', 'string', and
6790 'polytype' are no longer valid.
6792 * Integer variable assignments can now use 0b (binary),
6793 0 (octal) and 0x (hexadecimal) radix prefixes on literals.
6795 * New Jako and Parrot assembly examples queens.{jako,pasm} for
6796 solving the eight-queens problem. The assembly example is a
6797 hand-modified version of the assembly code produced by the
6798 Jako compiler from queens.jako. A few unnecessary ops have
6799 been removed, lots of unnecessary labels have been removed,
6800 and all the Jako source code comments have been removed.
6802 * Makefile and .cvsignore in languages/jako modified so that
6803 the assembler produces listings when assembling the programs,
6804 yet the *.list files are ignored by CVS.
6806 * Made the default target in languages/jako/Makefile 'all'.
6808 * Modified some of the Jako examples to use some of the new
6809 features of Jako, such as subroutines and lexical variable

7104 point of handling multiple oplibs at a time, but we are getting
7107 Fingerprinting stuff disabled for now. We used to go off
7108 opcode_table. We need to rethink this. I have some ideas to
7109 make it unnecessary, but it remains to be seen whether others
7110 will like the direction they take us.
7112 Termination condition for while(){} loop in runops is now
7113 (pc) instead of (*pc). Any op can cause a HALT by returning
7114 a NULL pointer. Ops end, bounds and trace all do this. So, now
7115 the 'end' op body is actually executed, although all it does
7118 * Makefile.in modified to perform a test build using pbc2c.pl,
7119 which is the bytecode --> C compiler I've posted to the
7122 * Op full names are now autogenerated. Op root names must not
7123 contain underscores, so some op renamings have happened.
7124 Such as clear_i becoming cleari.

7210 * Parrot/Vtable.pm, lib/Parrot/Vtable.pm, vtable_h.pl: Patch to
7211 allow parrot to compile. PACKAGE is not defined, therefore, I
7212 added a struct before it to have it not complain until we define
7213 PACKAGE. Also, there was an extra shift in Vtable.pm and a missing

7233 The test for cmod_i was using the 'mod Ix, Ix, Ix' form which

7258 * basic_opcodes.ops:
7259 * Fixed a couple of typos.

7263 * basic_opcodes.ops, opcode_table, t/op/integer.t, t/op/number.t:
7264 Arithmetic enhancements:
7266 * Renamed existing mod_i as cmod_i and added "corrected" mod_i:
7268 NOTE: This "uncorrected mod" algorithm uses the C language's
7270 mod operator (x % y), which is
7272 ... the remainder when x is divided by y, and thus is zero
7276 The direction of truncation for / and teh sign of the
7278 are machine-dependent for negative operands, as is the
7280 on overflow or underflow.
7286 ... if the second operand is 0, the result is undefined.
7288 is always true that (a/b)*b + a%b is equal to z. I both
7290 non-negative, then teh remainder is non-negative and
7292 divisor; if not, it is guaranteed only that the absolute
7294 remainder is smaller than the absolute value of the
7299 This op is provided for those who need it (such as
7301 applications with heavy use of mod, but using it only with
7303 arguments), but a more mathematically useful numeric mod based
7305 floor(x/y) and defined with y == 0 is provided by the mod_i op.
7307 [1] Brian W. Kernighan and Dennis M. Ritchie, *The C
7309 Language*, Second Edition. Prentice Hall, 1988.
7311 * Added "corrected" mod_i:
7313 NOTE: This "corrected mod" algorithm is based on the C code on
7315 of [1]. Assuming correct behavior of C's built-in mod operator
7317 positive arguments, this algorithm implements a mathematically
7319 version of mod, defined thus:
7321 x mod y = x - y * floor(x / y)
7323 For more information on this definition of mod, see section 3.4

7330 Millennium* Springer, 1999.
7332 [2] Ronald L. Graham, Donald E. Knuth and Oren Patashnik,
7334 Mathematics*, Second Edition. Addison-Wesley, 1994.
7336 * Added mod_n, using the same formula as above, but with FLOATVAL
7339 * Added cmod_n, using the C math library's fmod() function:
7341 NOTE: This "uncorrected mod" algorithm uses the built-in C math
7343 fmod() function, which computes
7345 ... the remainder of dividing x by y. The return value is x
7347 where n is the quotient of x / y, rounded towards zero to
7350 -- fmod() manpage on RedHat
7353 In addition, fmod() returns
7355 the remainder, unless y is zero, when the function fails
7359 According to page 251 of [1], the result when y is zero is
7363 This op is provided for those who need it, but a more
7365 useful numeric mod based on floor(x/y) instead of truncate(x/y)
7367 defined with y == 0 is provided by the mod_n op.

7419 * basic_opcodes.ops, interpreter.c, opcode_table,
7420 process_opfunc.pl, test_main.c, include/parrot/interpreter.h,
7422 * Two new ops, trace_ic and bounds_ic that twiddle bits in
7423 interpreter->flags and set interpreter->resume_addr.
7425 * Two new runops core variants, so now we cover the relevant
7426 flag space over {trace, notrace} x {boundscheck, noboundscheck}
7428 * Runops core selection that converts the flags into an index
7430 a core table (runops_cores) to get the core function pointer.
7432 * A new trace_op variant that doesn't do bounds checking (used by
7433 the non-bounds-checking-but-tracing runops core).
7435 * PC is passed into the cores so that they can be used when
7436 resuming (they used to assume starting at the beginning of the
7437 code, which would thwart resumption).
7439 * runops() itself is changed to have a while() loop in it so that
7440 any time we drop out of the core, we'll resume if we have an
7441 interpreter->resume_addr set (after reselecting the core,
7444 * process_opfunc.pl has a new "macro": RESUME(), that sets up
7445 interpreter->resume_addr. This is used by the new ops. The new
7446 ops still return the new PC as the next op (which MUST be an
7447 'end' op to force the core loop to terminate -- *pc being false
7448 is the only termination condition we can count on for all
7451 * New interpreter flag: PARROT_BOUNDS_FLAG, used to control
7452 bounds checking core selection.
7454 * test_prog now has a '-b' flag in addition to the '-t' flag.
7456 bounds checking is off by default (I saw a performance boost:
7457 6.3 Mop/s with -b, 7.0 Mop/s without).
7459 * A new sample/test program: t/trace.pasm that twiddles the trace
7460 flag while it is running.

7464 * .cvsignore, Makefile.in, build_interp_starter.pl, interpreter.c,
7465 include/parrot/.cvsignore, include/parrot/interpreter.h:
7466 Now that 0.0.2 is released, I can clear out the backlog of approved
7467 but uncommitted patches. Here's one Dan approved on 2001-09-21
7470 * test_prog and pdump are linked with only the files the need,
7474 * build_interp_starter.pl writes out op_info.[hc], too. These
7476 contain op name, arg count and arg type information. This will
7478 useful for multiple things in the future, including better
7480 output and the crystalizing loader.
7482 * The DO_OP macro is now simpler and doesn't require explicit
7485 * interpreter.c is modified to use the new op info in tracing
7488 * The interpreter just points its opcode_funcs and opcode_info
7489 members at the default tables rather than allocating memory on

7565 This patch ensures that all bytecode is of type opcode_t except for
7566 the constant table constants. That means that almost all of the
7567 INTVALs in the code were replaced with opcode_t and the i pack type
7568 was replaced with the op pack type in calls to pack_arg and such.
7569 Also, since it has been declared that ALL integer constants are to
7570 be 32 bits, some test cases were changed to ensure that an integer
7571 constant was no bigger than 2 ** 31.
7573 process_opfunc.pl was also cleaned up to no longer look at either
7574 opcode_table or interp_guts.h but gather all of its information
7577 The Assembler.pm module was changed to do late binding of arguments
7578 so that 0 could be treated like 0.0 without having to be so
7579 declared. Also, only strings now use the [sc:N] intermediate form
7580 as it was unnecessary for integer and float types.

7829 Move NVs to the constant table. * Changes to Types_pm.in to make
7830 life easier for some of the packing/etc. I'm doing elsewhere.
7831 Also, we now pack 'n' as 'i'.
7833 * Moved the guts of assemble.pl to Parrot/Assembler.pm so that
7834 eventually we can use all these tools together inside scripts
7835 rather than call out to the shell to run the programs.
7837 * As I was tracking down problems, I converted the internal
7838 documentation of the assembler to POD from comments.
7840 * Changed the numeric regexp in the assembler to detect leading
7841 signs and trailing exponents.
7843 * Updated basic_opcodes.ops to fetch numeric constants from the
7846 * Enhanced the disassembler in a number of ways to make my life
7847 easier while tracking down bugs (try it out). It now puts in
7848 labels for ops that are the destinations of flow control ops.
7850 * packfile.c now has a TRACE_PACKFILE switch that can be set
7851 to get it to print info as it processes. I needed this while
7852 debugging, but I can remove it or change it before committing
7855 * Updated pdump.c because it was missing a call to init_world().
7857 * Updated process_opfunc.pl to deal with numeric constants
7858 being stored in the constant table instead of inline.
7860 * Added multiple type support to Parrot/PackFile/Constant.pm
7862 * Added Parrot/String.pm, to be used for constants.
7864 * Added packfile.[hc] functions for allocating new constants
7867 * Made string_copy visible to the world in parrot/string.h.

7895 2001-09-27 04:46 thgibbs
7897 * assemble.pl: This patch makes integer constants of the form
7898 0b[01]+ work with perl 5.005. The oct function in versions of perl
7899 before 5.6 did not handle the 0b numeric prefix; therefore, it was
7900 returning 0. To fix this, I added a from_binary function that
7901 would take a binary string and return its decimal representation.
7902 Now, instead of blindly calilng oct, it makes a distinction between
7903 0/0x numbers and 0b numbers.

7918 * bytecode.[hc] removed. packfile.[hc] are the interface to the
7919 packfile/bytecode file from C. May be renamed in the future.
7921 * packfile.[hc] changed to use 'struct PackFile *', etc. instead
7922 of 'PackFile *', just like the interpreter, etc.
7924 * Constants are accessed via the interpreter's 'code' member
7925 (struct PackFile * code). Macros PCONST(i) and PNCONST are
7926 provided to access constants by index and the number of
7927 constants, respectively (assumes a variable 'interpreter' of
7928 the appropriate type is in scope).
7930 * Byte Code is accessed via the interpreter's 'code' member.
7932 * Changed PackFile_Constant to point to a STRING instead of
7934 members for the string_make() arguments. Also has a 'type' IV
7935 in preparation for allowing multiple types of constants in
7938 * Removed hardcoded example program from test_main.c. We have
7939 plenty of test programs elsewhere.
7941 * test_prog now uses a PackFile to deal with the program before
7942 sending it on to the interpreter.
7944 * Added missing 'end' ops to some tests in t/op/integer.t and
7947 2001-09-26 18:38 thgibbs

8007 errors 3) I think we can stop skipping one of the string tests 4) I
8008 added some more substr tests, but substr was broken, so 5) changed
8009 substr to work with out of range values, or 6) throw an error if
8010 they're far too silly

8035 * Fixed handling of constants starting with '0' that should not
8037 sent through oct(). For example 'set N2 0.1' was being
8039 as 'set N2 0' (naughty).

8243 Parrot/Opcode.pm: Change the hard-wired assumption that sizeof(nv)
8244 = 2*sizeof(iv) to a PConfig-type computed value.
8246 Parrot/Test.pm: Change it to run with the perl that was used to
8247 generate this version of Parrot. This is useful if, for example,
8248 you want to use bleadperl to build and test parrot (e.g. to try out
8249 various 64-bit options) but you still have a 5.6.x (or 5.005_xx)
8250 installed as the default 'perl' on your system. Since perl-5.7.x
8251 is installed 'version-only', a plain 'perl' is quite likely to pick
8252 up the older perl in such cases. Such an older perl might well not
8253 understand pack('q') used in the assembler.

8321 opcode_table listing of if_i_ic and if_n_ic. Dan had changed the
8322 function to only use 2 args, but the opcode_table still had three
8323 listed. Fixed integer.t and number.t to use the new comparison
8324 operators. Improved assemble.pl ability to grok operators by
8325 constructing a function set and comparing operator types.

8565 better implement it...
8567 2001-09-17 22:54 gregor
8569 * MANIFEST, Parrot/PackFile.pm, Parrot/PackFile/ConstTable.pm,
8570 Parrot/PackFile/Constant.pm, Parrot/PackFile/FixupTable.pm,
8571 lib/Parrot/PackFile.pm, lib/Parrot/PackFile/ConstTable.pm,
8572 lib/Parrot/PackFile/Constant.pm, lib/Parrot/PackFile/FixupTable.pm:
8574 Functions for reading, writing and manipulating Parrot Pack Files.
8575 NOTE: This is a proposed term based on the fact that the file
8576 contains more than just byte code, and another language (Java)
8577 calls its binary files by a broader notion of what's in them (Class
8578 Files). Since Perl has packages, and since we use pack() to write
8579 them, we'll call them PackFiles (at least for now).
8581 That does, however, beg the question of file extension. Should we
8582 name the files "foo.pack" instead of "foo.pbc"?
8584 2001-09-17 20:23 thgibbs
8586 * interpreter.c, test_main.c: Uncuddled else statements for coding

8606 * build_interp_starter.pl, bytecode.c, bytecode.h, interpreter.c,
8607 interpreter.h, test_main.c:
8608 * Provides macros in interp_guts.h for setting up arrays with
8609 op names and op arg counts (done via build_interp_starter.pl).
8611 These are used in the op tracing
8613 * The functions in bytecode.[hc] pass around a pointer to the
8615 of the bytecode so that later when we get to runops, we know
8616 how much bytecode we've got and we can detect out-of-bounds
8617 jumping. The documentation is updated, too.
8619 * runops in interpreter.c now looks at interpreter->flags to
8620 decide if the core of runops should be runops_trace_core or
8621 runops_notrace_core. These new functions contain just the
8622 while-loop portion of runops. A new function runops_generic
8623 does any other setup (such as checking the bytecode
8624 fingerprint) or wrapup (such as complaining if we ended up
8625 out-of-bounds). NOTE: I didn't know what we should do for
8626 functions in here that are not part of the api, so I gave
8627 them docs with 'TODO' marks mentioning they really aren't
8628 part of the api. Guidance appreciated.
8630 * test_main.c now checks for '-t' arg and sets the tracing flag
8631 on its interpreter instance as appropriate.
8633 2001-09-17 17:47 bdwheele
8635 * assemble.pl: added some default equates, and if they're sub
8636 references, they are computed each time it is referenced.

8755 * languages/jako/jakoc:
8756 Modified comparison implementation to use temporary registers in
8757 the case of register-constant and constant-register comparisons.
8758 This will allow the compiler to emit code that works when the
8759 constant-comparison ops are backed out of Parrot. If the ops ever
8760 make their way back in, then jakoc can emit more efficient code

9076 A new assembler, from Brian Wheeler.
9078 2001-09-13 09:44 simon
9080 * basic_opcodes.ops, interpreter.h, parrot.h, strnative.c,
9082 Two more from Tom Hughes: Patch to fix C++ style comments
9083 Patch to remove use of structure constant/cast
9085 2001-09-13 09:39 simon
9087 * TODO, docs/strings.pod:
9090 2001-09-13 09:36 simon
9092 * Makefile, basic_opcodes.ops:
9093 Tom Hughes Patch to link with the maths library Tom Hughes
9094 Patch to fix += on rvalue
9096 2001-09-13 08:57 simon
9099 I guess nobody's been using the nightly builds...
9101 2001-09-13 08:27 simon
9103 * assemble.pl, basic_opcodes.ops, opcode_table:
9104 Bitwise ops, from Brian Wheeler.
9106 2001-09-13 08:23 simon
9108 * .cvsignore, t/.cvsignore:
9109 .cvsignore's, from Gregor Purdy.
9111 2001-09-13 08:22 simon
9114 Euclidean test and test output rearranging from Gregor Purdy.
9116 2001-09-13 08:21 simon
9118 * assemble.pl, basic_opcodes.ops, disassemble.pl, opcode_table:
9119 Math ops from Gibbs Tanton.
9121 2001-09-13 08:14 simon
9123 * basic_opcodes.ops, opcode_table, string.c, string.h, strnative.c,
9125 String substr op; also rearranged "encoding" to be a vtable
9126 pointer, not an array index. Haven't changed docs to reflect this,
9131 2001-09-12 19:48 dan
9133 * t/euclid.pasm: Implementation of Euclid's Algorithm, courtesy of
9136 2001-09-12 19:39 dan
9138 * basic_opcodes.ops, opcode_table: From Gregor Purdy. Adds mod_i.
9140 2001-09-12 19:23 dan
9142 * interpreter.h, parrot.h: Quick placeholder entry for string
9145 2001-09-12 18:58 dan
9147 * memory.c: Added in a cast to make gcc happy.
9149 2001-09-12 16:44 dan
9151 * docs/parrot_assembly.pod:
9153 PDD describing parrot's assembly language and the opcodes in it
9155 2001-09-12 14:20 dan
9158 Fixed alignment issues with allocation
9160 2001-09-12 10:54 simon
9162 * Makefile, assemble.pl, bytecode.c, disassemble.pl,
9163 make_op_header.pl, opcode_table, process_opfunc.pl:
9164 Brian Wheeler's big patch:
9166 * Changes the opcode_table file to provide additional information
9167 about the operands. Case shouldn't be a problem since that data
9168 never becomes a C symbol [this is pretty much as before]
9170 * Padding errors solved: assemble.pl and bytecode.c were padding
9171 the constants incorrectly. It should have been 4-(size % 4), not
9172 just (size % 4). It is now fixed in both places.
9174 * assembler has less special cases, and should be easier to hang
9177 * disassembler dumps constant table and the format is a bit
9178 prettier, including register names, etc.
9180 2001-09-11 23:21 dan
9182 * build_interp_starter.pl, interpreter.c:
9184 Abstracted the runops function core into a macro for easy
9187 2001-09-11 10:43 simon
9189 * Configure.pl, MANIFEST, Makefile, config.h, config.h.in:
9190 Configure system from Brent Dax <brentdax@cpan.org>
9192 2001-09-11 09:38 simon
9194 * assemble.pl, test.pbc:
9195 From: Bryan C. Warnock <bwarnock@raba.com> Subject: Patch:
9196 assembler deferred output
9198 Also got rid of the bytecode, since that's probably way out of
9201 2001-09-11 09:26 simon
9203 * basic_opcodes.ops, opcode_table, t/test2.pasm:
9204 From: Bryan C. Warnock <bwarnock@raba.com> Subject: length_s_i
9207 2001-09-10 23:20 simon
9210 And that move needs a MANIFEST change. So many things to remember!
9212 2001-09-10 23:18 simon
9214 * t/: test.pasm, test2.pasm, test3.pasm:
9215 Move tests to t/. (Oh, CVS doesn't work the way I think it does.)
9217 2001-09-10 23:18 simon
9219 * test.pasm, test2.pasm, test3.pasm:
9222 2001-09-10 23:04 dan
9226 Register push/pop test
9228 2001-09-10 22:47 simon
9230 * basic_opcodes.ops, bytecode.c, parrot.h, test_main.c:
9231 Fix up format warnings, from Sam Tregar <sam@tregar.com>.
9232 (Modified to avoid conflict with Dan's changes.)
9234 2001-09-10 22:45 dan
9238 Happier about blanks in opcode_table
9240 2001-09-10 22:40 dan
9242 * interpreter.c, register.c:
9244 Yanked out debugging code, since these work OK. The bug I want is
9247 2001-09-10 22:30 simon
9250 Uhm. We want make_op_header.pl. We really, really do.
9252 2001-09-10 22:26 simon
9254 * Makefile, TODO, assemble.pl, basic_opcodes.ops,
9255 build_interp_starter.pl, disassemble.pl, make_op_header.pl,
9256 opcode_table, process_opfunc.pl:
9257 Automatic opcode numbering, from Leon Brocard <acme@astray.com>.
9258 This means we can add lots more opcodes without fiddling about with
9259 the numbers. Hooray!
9261 Don't forget that "end" needs to be op zero, else the interpreter
9262 falls off the end of the code. This is Bad, and I wonder if there's
9265 2001-09-10 19:49 simon
9267 * MANIFEST, make_op_table_build.pl:
9268 Hey! This doesn't do anything...
9270 2001-09-10 19:46 simon
9273 "clean" target cleanup from Bryan C. Warnock <bwarnock@raba.com>.
9275 2001-09-10 18:31 simon
9278 You know what this means...
9280 2001-09-10 18:30 simon
9283 "use strict" patch from Leon Brocard <acme@astray.com>. Hey, why
9284 wait for a release...? :)
9286 2001-09-10 18:13 simon
9291 2001-09-10 17:56 simon
9294 A *real* README file, which doesn't claim it isn't for public
9297 2001-09-10 17:02 simon
9302 2001-09-10 16:56 dan
9304 * TODO: Added in assembler gripe. Also added a few blank lines for
9307 2001-09-10 16:49 dan
9309 * register.h, register.c: Renamed the core functions so the opcodes
9310 can find 'em OK. (There were some conflicts)
9312 2001-09-10 16:48 dan
9314 * basic_opcodes.ops, opcode_table: Added register window ops
9316 2001-09-10 11:07 simon
9321 2001-09-10 11:05 simon
9323 * test.pbc, test2.pasm, test_main.c: Other string bits and pieces;
9324 note "-s" flag to test prog.
9326 2001-09-10 11:01 simon
9329 New string documentation.
9331 2001-09-10 11:01 simon
9333 * basic_opcodes.ops, opcode_table:
9336 2001-09-10 10:53 simon
9341 2001-09-10 10:51 simon
9344 Just some more aliases for now. Used by string handling stuff.
9346 2001-09-10 10:50 simon
9348 * assemble.pl, bytecode.c, bytecode.h:
9349 Temporary hack to store string constants in bytecode and recreate
9352 2001-09-10 10:48 simon
9355 op.h is now generated by the Makefile; remove it.
9357 2001-09-10 10:47 simon
9360 clean and op.h Makefile targets.
9362 2001-09-10 10:45 simon
9364 * string.c, string.h, strnative.c:
9365 More string vtable stuff.
9367 2001-09-07 21:07 dan
9371 Much less picky about whitespace in the opcode_table now. (Doesn't
9372 whine on blank lines)
9374 2001-09-07 16:23 dan
9376 * Makefile, assemble.pl, global_setup.h, interpreter.c,
9377 interpreter.h, opcode_table, parrot.h, test.pasm: (Here's hoping
9378 this takes) Added global_setup.h to declare init_world function
9380 Moved variable declarations out of the interpreter loop for small
9383 Changed end opcode to now be opcode #0. A function is provided for
9384 it, but isn't ever executed.
9386 When the interpreter sees an opcode 0 in the stream it means the
9387 end of stream. Things were coring on Cygwin otherwise. (I think I
9388 was dereferencing a zero, which is bad)
9390 2001-09-06 22:07 dan
9392 * basic_opcodes.ops, process_opfunc.pl:
9394 Minor tweaks to basic_opcodes.ops to fix some NV issues. The rest
9395 are minor changes now that things are in a fixed state.
9397 2001-09-06 16:13 dan
9399 * basic_opcodes.c, test_opcodes.c:
9400 test_opcodes.c is now irrelevant--they're all in basic_opcodes.ops.
9402 basic_opcodes.c is now autogenerated from basic_opcodes.ops, and
9403 should be nuked. So it is. :)
9405 2001-09-06 03:35 dan
9407 * basic_opcodes.ops, build_interp_starter.pl, process_opfunc.pl:
9408 Scripts to build the header file that holds the function table
9409 creation code, as well as the script to turn an opcode file to C
9410 source. (And the basic opcode functions turned into an opcode
9413 2001-09-06 03:31 dan
9415 * Makefile, interpreter.c:
9416 Changes to support the autogeneration of the opcode function
9417 pointer table in interpreter.c, along with the changes to the
9420 2001-09-05 13:27 simon
9422 * bytecode.c, config.h, docs/opcodes.pod, docs/overview.pod,
9423 docs/parrotbyte.pod, docs/vtables.pod:
9424 Added stubs for the documents; working on them this week. (What's
9425 left of it.) config.h change is just to type VTABLE, and the
9426 bytecode thing you might want to revoke. It's apidoc for the
9429 2001-09-03 18:26 simon
9432 A start on the string API documentation.
9434 2001-09-03 17:43 simon
9437 Since we specify the opcode number, we can rearrange to a more
9438 human-friendly ordering.
9440 2001-09-03 17:42 simon
9443 Coupl'a logic bugs. (I think)
9445 2001-09-03 17:41 simon
9447 * string.c, string.h, strnative.c:
9448 Tidying up the string vtables.
9450 2001-09-03 17:38 simon
9452 * make_op_header.pl:
9453 Spit out the whole of op.h, not just the bit in the middle.
9455 2001-08-29 13:16 ask
9457 * README: it seems like we indeed can commit. What about sending
9460 2001-08-29 13:07 simon
9462 * Makefile, README, assemble.pl, basic_opcodes.c, bytecode.c,
9463 bytecode.h, config.h, disassemble.pl, events.h, exceptions.h,

9469 Initial checkin of Simon's work directory - Dan, feel free to nuke.
9470 I'm still working on the string stuff, though.
9472 2001-08-29 12:44 ask
