2006-08-23 * Quotes.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-08-23 * New primop: abort "error message".Eelco Dolstra3-2/+11
2006-08-23 * A new primop `builtins', which returns an attribute set containingEelco Dolstra1-0/+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 ...'.
2006-08-17 * Print attributes in sorted order, rather than the arbitrary orderEelco Dolstra1-9/+22
produced by ATermMap. Necessary for testing. * `--strict' should also work on stdin.
2006-08-16 * More XML output. `--strict' to strictly evaluate attribute sets andEelco Dolstra2-46/+91
so on. * Removed `--print-args', it's subsumed by `--eval-only --xml'.
2006-08-16 * `nix-instantiate --{eval|parse}-only --xml': print an XMLEelco Dolstra4-12/+81
representation instead of an ATerm. * Indent XML output.
2006-08-16 * Handle carriage returns. Fixes NIX-53.Eelco Dolstra2-5/+14
2006-08-15 On cygwin, disable the check that the output is not group or worldMartin Bravenboer1-0/+2
writable. File permissions on Cygwin are rather complex, and in this case this check introduced a problem with build jobs invoke from outside of Cygwin (MSYS). It seemed almost impossible to fix the permissions of the directory, so for now this safety check is disabled on Cygwin.
2006-08-14 * Put the value in an attribute.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+3
2006-08-11 * `nix-store --gc --print-dead': print the total size of the storeEelco Dolstra2-5/+19
objects that would be freed.
2006-08-11 * Don't assume that paths returned by the runtime root finder areEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
valid.
2006-08-10 * New configuration setting `build-max-jobs' which sets the defaultEelco Dolstra1-0/+7
for the `-j' flag (i.e., the maximum number of jobs to execute in parallel). Useful on multi-processor machines.
2006-08-09 * Fix the help message wrt --attr.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-08-09 * Print a warning that the subpath operator (~) is deprecated.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+5
2006-08-07 * Workaround for a bug (?) in GCC 2.95.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-08-04 * Fix a few warnings.Eelco Dolstra4-5/+5
2006-08-04 * Weird issue on Cygwin with the include file order.Eelco Dolstra1-4/+4
2006-08-03 * `nix-env -q --xml': show query result in XML format for easierEelco Dolstra3-25/+82
automated processing.
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
2006-08-01 * Show some progress.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+1
2006-07-28 * `nix-instantiate ... --arg NAME VALUE': allow arguments to be passedEelco Dolstra7-30/+48
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 * Support the --attr / -A flag in nix-env as well. So now we can do,Eelco Dolstra2-3/+24
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 Dolstra3-13/+33
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 * Refactoring to support domain checks.Eelco Dolstra7-26/+33
2006-07-20 * Use $(libexecdir) to find find-runtime-roots.pl.Eelco Dolstra5-1/+8
2006-07-20 * Use debug().Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-07-20 * Call find-runtime-roots.pl from the garbage collector to preventEelco Dolstra4-16/+134
running applications etc. from being garbage collected.
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
2006-07-06 * Allow the canonical system name to be specified at runtime in theEelco Dolstra5-8/+7
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.
2006-06-20 * 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 * 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.
2006-06-14 * Fix for a problem with BSD's group ownership semantics when the user Eelco Dolstra1-1/+13
is not in the "wheel" group.
2006-06-01 * Minor cleanup.Eelco Dolstra1-7/+3
2006-05-31 * For fixed-output derivations, pass the environment variables listedEelco Dolstra1-3/+20
in the attribute variable `impureEnvVars' from the caller to the builder.
2006-05-30 * Not all platforms have sys/select.h.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2006-05-30 * Don't use badTerm, it gives awful error messages.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+2
2006-05-29 * Disable the concurrent garbage collector on Cygwin for now.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+8
