2006-09-27 * Fix setuid builds.Eelco Dolstra2-9/+9
2006-09-25 * Quick hack to let nix-install-package set the package name properlyEelco Dolstra1-1/+11
(e.g., "java-front-0.9pre15899" instead of "java-front"; particularly important when doing upgrades later on).
2006-09-24 * The result of a concatenation with a derivation on the left-handEelco Dolstra2-4/+13
side should be a path, I guess. * Handle paths that are in the store but not direct children of the store directory. * Ugh, hack to prevent double context wrapping.
2006-09-24 * Primop `toPath' to convert a string to a path.Eelco Dolstra1-7/+26
* Primop `pathExists' to check for path existence.
2006-09-24 * Builtin function `getEnv' for getting environment variables.Eelco Dolstra1-6/+18
2006-09-24 * lessThan primitive for integer comparison.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+9
2006-09-22 * Builtin function `add' to add integers.Eelco Dolstra3-0/+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 Dolstra1-0/+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 ofEelco Dolstra1-0/+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 forEelco Dolstra1-0/+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 readingEelco Dolstra1-9/+26
regular files into memory all at once.
2006-09-22 * Don't allocate the buffer twice.Eelco Dolstra1-7/+9
2006-09-22 * Don't allocate more than SIZE_MAX bytes.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+7
2006-09-21 * GC options in nix-store --help (NIX-15).Eelco Dolstra1-1/+10
2006-09-21 * Fix comment.Eelco Dolstra1-3/+1
2006-09-20 * Shut up a warning.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+1
2006-09-20 * Print a better error message for wrong hashes (NIX-49).Eelco Dolstra3-4/+16
2006-09-14 * Wow, that bug has been there since r764.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+2
2006-09-14 * nix-env --switch-generation / --list-generations /Eelco Dolstra1-0/+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 Dolstra3-22/+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 Dolstra1-6/+14
* More follow restrictions on layout.
2006-09-08 * Remove debug message.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+0
2006-09-05 * Missing #include.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+2
2006-09-05 * Sone missing #includes.Eelco Dolstra3-1/+3
2006-09-04 * Move setuid stuff to libutil.Eelco Dolstra4-142/+146
* Install libexpr header files.
2006-09-04 * Install header files in /nix/include/nix.Eelco Dolstra5-14/+25
2006-09-04 * Remove unnecessary inclusions of aterm2.h.Eelco Dolstra7-9/+13
2006-09-04 * Don't need extern "C".Eelco Dolstra2-4/+0
2006-09-04 * Compile the lexer as C++ code. Remove all the redundant C/C++Eelco Dolstra4-276/+234
marshalling code.
2006-09-04 * Use a proper namespace.Eelco Dolstra61-266/+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 Dolstra5-5/+5
2006-09-01 * New primop: builtins.toFile, which writes a string into the storeEelco Dolstra1-0/+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 "{". (TooEelco Dolstra1-1/+5
bad flex doesn't have lexical restrictions, the current solution isn't quite right...)
2006-08-31 * Doh! Doh! Doh!Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-08-31 * Better error checking.Eelco Dolstra1-11/+6
2006-08-30 * Okay, that's a bit harder than expected.Eelco Dolstra2-9/+19
2006-08-30 * Uninitialised variable.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-08-29 * Support singleton values and nested lists again in `args', but printEelco Dolstra2-8/+9
a warning.
2006-08-29 * Fix the ~ operator.Eelco Dolstra4-3/+24
2006-08-28 * In toString, deal with nested lists properly (i.e., flatten them).Eelco Dolstra1-0/+21
2006-08-28 * Removed processBinding, instead we now apply toString to allEelco Dolstra2-139/+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 Dolstra3-10/+11
2006-08-25 * Remove those storePath attribute sets, we don't need 'em.Eelco Dolstra2-18/+2
2006-08-24 * Escape newlines in XML attributes to prevent them from beingEelco Dolstra1-0/+3
normalised away.
2006-08-24 * New primop __toXML (or builtins.toXML) to convert an expression toEelco Dolstra1-0/+10
an XML representation stored in a string. This should be useful to pass structured information to builders.
2006-08-24 * Refactoring.Eelco Dolstra4-87/+111
2006-08-24 * Strict evaluation and XML printing of lists.Eelco Dolstra2-4/+16
2006-08-24 * Refactoring: move strictEval to libexpr.Eelco Dolstra3-44/+48
2006-08-23 * Allow --arg in nix-env as well, example:Eelco Dolstra1-7/+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-instantiateEelco Dolstra3-7/+11
foo.nix -A attr --arg name value" will work if (name, value) is needed in the evaluation leading up to "attr".
