2006-09-24	* Primop `toPath' to convert a string to a path.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-7/+26
	* Primop `pathExists' to check for path existence.
2006-09-24	* Builtin function `getEnv' for getting environment variables.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-6/+18

2006-09-24	* lessThan primitive for integer comparison.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+9

2006-09-22	* Builtin function `add' to add integers.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-0/+20
	* Put common test functions in tests/lang/lib.nix.
2006-09-22	* Added a builtin function `isList' to test whether a value is a list.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+9
	With this primitive, a list-flattening function can be implemented (NIX-55, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-flatten.nix).
2006-09-22	* Builtin functions `head' and `tail' to return the head and tail of	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+25
	list. Useful for lots of things, such as implementing a fold function (see NIX-30, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-list.nix).
2006-09-22	* New builtin functions builtins.{hasAttr, getAttr} to check for	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+16
	attribute existence and to return an attribute from an attribute set, respectively. Example: `hasAttr "foo" {foo = 1;}'. They differ from the `?' and `.' operators in that the attribute name is an arbitrary expression. (NIX-61)
2006-09-22	* Use a bounded amount of memory in scanForReferences() by not reading	Eelco Dolstra	1	-9/+26
	regular files into memory all at once.
2006-09-22	* Don't allocate the buffer twice.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-7/+9

2006-09-22	* Don't allocate more than SIZE_MAX bytes.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+7

2006-09-21	* GC options in nix-store --help (NIX-15).	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+10

2006-09-21	* Fix comment.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+1

2006-09-20	* Shut up a warning.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+1

2006-09-20	* Print a better error message for wrong hashes (NIX-49).	Eelco Dolstra	3	-4/+16

2006-09-14	* Wow, that bug has been there since r764.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-2/+2

2006-09-14	* nix-env --switch-generation / --list-generations /	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+9
	--delete-generations: lock the profile to prevent (extremely unlikely) race conditions.
2006-09-14	* Fix a huge gaping hole in nix-env w.r.t. the garbage collector.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-22/+26
	Nix-env failed to call addPermRoot(), which is necessary to safely add a new root. So if nix-env started after and finished before the garbage collector, the user environment (plus all other new stuff) it built might be garbage collected, leading to a dangling symlink chain in ~/.nix-profile... * Be more explicit if we block on the GC lock ("waiting for the big garbage collector lock..."). * Don't loop trying to create a new generation. It's not necessary anymore since profiles are locked nowadays.
2006-09-11	* Support `++'.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-6/+14
	* More follow restrictions on layout.
2006-09-08	* Remove debug message.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+0

2006-09-05	* Missing #include.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2

2006-09-05	* Sone missing #includes.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-1/+3

2006-09-04	* Move setuid stuff to libutil.	Eelco Dolstra	4	-142/+146
	* Install libexpr header files.
2006-09-04	* Install header files in /nix/include/nix.	Eelco Dolstra	5	-14/+25

2006-09-04	* Remove unnecessary inclusions of aterm2.h.	Eelco Dolstra	7	-9/+13

2006-09-04	* Don't need extern "C".	Eelco Dolstra	2	-4/+0

2006-09-04	* Compile the lexer as C++ code. Remove all the redundant C/C++	Eelco Dolstra	4	-276/+234
	marshalling code.
2006-09-04	* Use a proper namespace.	Eelco Dolstra	61	-266/+648
	* Optimise header file usage a bit. * Compile the parser as C++.
2006-09-04	* Store the Nix libraries in ${libdir}/nix instead of ${libdir}.	Eelco Dolstra	5	-5/+5

2006-09-01	* New primop: builtins.toFile, which writes a string into the store	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+14
	and returns its path. This can be used to (for instance) write builders inside a Nix expression, e.g., stdenv.mkDerivation { builder = " source $stdenv/setup ... "; ... }
2006-09-01	* Allow "$" in strings as long as they are not followed by "{". (Too	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+5
	bad flex doesn't have lexical restrictions, the current solution isn't quite right...)
2006-08-31	* Doh! Doh! Doh!	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2006-08-31	* Better error checking.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-11/+6

2006-08-30	* Okay, that's a bit harder than expected.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-9/+19

2006-08-30	* Uninitialised variable.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2006-08-29	* Support singleton values and nested lists again in `args', but print	Eelco Dolstra	2	-8/+9
	a warning.
2006-08-29	* Fix the ~ operator.	Eelco Dolstra	4	-3/+24

2006-08-28	* In toString, deal with nested lists properly (i.e., flatten them).	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+21

2006-08-28	* Removed processBinding, instead we now apply toString to all	Eelco Dolstra	2	-139/+139
	derivation attributes to flatten them into strings. This is possible since string can nowadays be wrapped in contexts that describe the derivations/sources referenced by the evaluation of the string.
2006-08-26	* Refactoring.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-10/+11

2006-08-25	* Remove those storePath attribute sets, we don't need 'em.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-18/+2

2006-08-24	* Escape newlines in XML attributes to prevent them from being	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+3
	normalised away.
2006-08-24	* New primop __toXML (or builtins.toXML) to convert an expression to	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+10
	an XML representation stored in a string. This should be useful to pass structured information to builders.
2006-08-24	* Refactoring.	Eelco Dolstra	4	-87/+111

2006-08-24	* Strict evaluation and XML printing of lists.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-4/+16

2006-08-24	* Refactoring: move strictEval to libexpr.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-44/+48

2006-08-23	* Allow --arg in nix-env as well, example:	Eelco Dolstra	1	-7/+20
	$ nix-env -qa --system-filter \* --arg system '"powerpc-darwin"' to override the system from the default value (__currentSystem in all-packages.nix).
2006-08-23	* Pass the autoArgs to findAlongAttrPath so that "nix-instantiate	Eelco Dolstra	3	-7/+11
	foo.nix -A attr --arg name value" will work if (name, value) is needed in the evaluation leading up to "attr".
2006-08-23	* Quotes.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2006-08-23	* New primop: abort "error message".	Eelco Dolstra	3	-2/+11

2006-08-23	* A new primop `builtins', which returns an attribute set containing	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+26
	all the primops. This allows Nix expressions to test for new primops and take appropriate action if they're not available. For instance, rather than calling a primop `foo' directly, they could say `if builtins ? foo then builtins.foo ... else ...'.
