2006-08-03 * `nix-instantiate --print-args': produce XML output so that theEelco Dolstra4-60/+81
result can be used more easily by scripts.
2006-08-03 * Simple class for writing XML files.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+161
2006-08-03 urgh...for some weird reason this one-liner was not in svn. PEBKAC!Armijn Hemel1-1/+1
2006-08-01 * Better error checking.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+2
2006-08-01 add a flag --target, so we can override the URL in the MANIFEST file. ThisArmijn Hemel1-0/+9
is only for local copies (so file:///)
2006-08-01 * Ugh. Darwin's chmod insists that flags come before the modeEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
specification.
2006-08-01 * Show some progress.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+1
2006-07-28 * `nix-instantiate ... --arg NAME VALUE': allow arguments to be passedEelco Dolstra8-32/+58
to functions from the command line. * nix-build: started removing backticks.
2006-07-28 * `nix-instantiate --print-args': print out the valid values forEelco Dolstra3-3/+37
functions arguments that have a domain.
2006-07-26 * Refactoring: get the selection path stuff out of getDerivations()Eelco Dolstra9-119/+170
and put it into a separate function findAlongAttrPath().
2006-07-25 * `nix-instantiate --print-args' prints out the arguments of aEelco Dolstra3-7/+28
top-level function.
2006-07-25 * Applied rbroek's patch from the branch atEelco Dolstra4-15/+37
https://svn.cs.uu.nl:12443/repos/trace/buildfarm-control/trunk/ext/nix/, with some modifications. This allows `nix-env -qa' to show the attribute path that can be used to unambiguously install a package using `nix-env -i -A'. Example: $ nix-env -f top-level/all-packages.nix -qaA subversion xorg-server subversionWithJava subversion-1.2.3 subversion subversion-1.3.2 subversion14 subversion-1.4.0pre-rc1 xorg.xorgserver xorg-server-1.1.0
2006-07-25 * Doh.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-07-25 * Support the --attr / -A flag in nix-env as well. So now we can do,Eelco Dolstra3-3/+27
e.g., $ nix-env -i -A subversion xorg.xorgserver The main advantage over using symbolic names is that using attribute names is unambiguous and much, much faster.
2006-07-24 * When there is a domain check, we have to evaluate the argument.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+1
Can't be lazy!
2006-07-24 * New language feature: domain checks, which check whether a functionEelco Dolstra4-13/+40
argument has a valid value, i.e., is in a certain domain. E.g., { foo : [true false] , bar : ["a" "b" "c"] }: ... This previously could be done using assertions, but domain checks will allow the buildfarm to automatically extract the configuration space from functions.
2006-07-24 * `touch' might not be in $PATH.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+0
2006-07-24 * Tests for domain checks.Eelco Dolstra3-0/+15
2006-07-24 * Refactoring to support domain checks.Eelco Dolstra10-29/+36
2006-07-21 * Purify `make check'.Eelco Dolstra26-29/+28
2006-07-21 * Test for runtime root finding.Eelco Dolstra5-5/+64
2006-07-21 * Don't try to do DNS lookups.Eelco Dolstra2-2/+2
2006-07-20 * Use $(libexecdir) to find find-runtime-roots.pl.Eelco Dolstra5-1/+8
2006-07-20 * Doh.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-07-20 * Use debug().Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-07-20 * svn:ignore.Eelco Dolstra0-0/+0
2006-07-20 * Call find-runtime-roots.pl from the garbage collector to preventEelco Dolstra6-16/+138
running applications etc. from being garbage collected.
2006-07-19 * Added a tool to find additional roots for the garbage collector,Eelco Dolstra2-2/+62
such as open files, current directories, mmaped files, etc. This is inherently unportable, but it's easy to adapt this script to other platforms. Currently we call `lsof' and try to read various bits in /proc/NNN. The goal is to prevent the garbage collector from removing store paths that are no longer reachable from a permanent root but that are still in use (for instance, after the user has done "nix-env -e" on a running program).
2006-07-19 * Add a precise test for hashDerivatioModulo.Eelco Dolstra3-0/+34
2006-07-19 * Better error messages (especially wrt types).Eelco Dolstra7-62/+96
2006-07-11 * Doh! Of couse we cannot memoize across scopes.Eelco Dolstra1-4/+8
2006-07-10 * This expression has an undefined variable which isn't detected, soEelco Dolstra1-0/+11
evaluation fails: error: impossible: undefined variable `gcc'
2006-07-06 * Allow the canonical system name to be specified at runtime in theEelco Dolstra6-8/+27
Nix config file.
2006-06-27 * `nix-env --upgrade --eq': only upgrade if the old version is equalEelco Dolstra2-2/+5
to the new version. This is actually useful.
2006-06-22 * Apply the ATerm aliasing patch so that Nix works correctly with gcc 4.1.x.Eelco Dolstra2-1/+226
2006-06-20 * Concurrent GC on Cygwin.Eelco Dolstra3-73/+146
2006-06-19 * Oops.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+2
2006-06-19 * _exit() doesn't seem to work right on Cygwin.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+11
2006-06-19 * On Windows we cannot delete open (lock) files, so we delete lockEelco Dolstra1-4/+47
files after we've closed them. Since this only succeeds if the lock is no longer opened by any process, the token trick used on Unix is not necessary.
2006-06-19 * Write messages to stderr in a slightly more atomic way. Useful whenEelco Dolstra1-1/+2
there are several parallel processes.
2006-06-16 * Skip this test on Cygwin, too slow (and doesn't test anything ↵Eelco Dolstra1-0/+3
Cygwin-specific).
2006-06-16 * Show when we're blocked waiting for a lock.Eelco Dolstra1-4/+4
2006-06-15 * In `nix-env -i|-u|-e', lock the profile to prevent races betweenEelco Dolstra3-6/+26
concurrent nix-env operations on the same profile. Fixes NIX-7.
2006-06-15 * Removed.Eelco Dolstra1-30/+0
2006-06-14 (no commit message)Eelco Dolstra1-0/+3
2006-06-14 * Fix for a problem with BSD's group ownership semantics when the user Eelco Dolstra1-1/+13
is not in the "wheel" group.
2006-06-14 * Oops.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-06-07 * Fix for a locking bug in Berkeley DB on Cygwin.Rob Vermaas2-1/+23
2006-06-01 * Minor cleanup.Eelco Dolstra1-7/+3
2006-05-31 * On Cygwin, set the system type to i686-cygwin, and disable dynamicEelco Dolstra1-2/+28
linking.
