heap to point to the global stack and change garbage collector

<LI> NEW: predicate_property(X,public).
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: public/1 directive, handling of source was cleaned up
|
|
|
|
|
(it used to be broken if one would switch between source and
|
|
|
|
|
no-source).
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: special meta-call handling for ISO mode. Reduce
|
|
|
|
|
amount of testing for other cases.
|
|
|

<LI> CLEANUP: complete cleanup of eval. No more duplicate code,
|
|
|
|
|
no more reg and fli.
|
|
|
|
|

<LI> NEW: strict_iso mode.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
between floating-point numbers in Linux.
|

|
<LI> NEW: handle floating point exceptions.
|

|
|
|
<LI> CLEANUP: get rid of EQUAL_FLOATS and EQUAL_LONG_INTS as

|
interface to the current input for their own dubious purposes.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: yap_flag(discontiguous_warnings, single_var_warnings,
|
|
|
|
|
redefine_warnings) as in SICStus. This should eventually
|
|
|
|
|
replace style_check and no_style_check.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: do not mark or sweep environments twice. This fixes
|
|
|
|
|
Bart's YAP GC performance bug (as mentioned in comp.lang.prolog!).
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: do variable shunting, not that it helps very much.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: save should only save as many registers as it
|
|
|
|
|
needs, and the ones it does should be adjusted when restoring.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: stream_select/3.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: save/2.
|
|

|
<LI> NEW: char_conversion/2 and current_char_conversion. Add
|
|
|
|
|
ISOGetc for this, change scanner for having two getcs (one
|
|
|
|
|
within strings, the other elsewhere).
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: was recording source for optimised clauses, not
|
|
|
|
|
just source for module preprocessed clause.

<LI> CLEANUP: got rid of PlPutChar();
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: ISO compatible mode for floor and friends.

|
<LI> FIXED: miscellaneous error handling in eval.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: number_chars and friends should be compatible with
|
|
|
|
|
scanner.

|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: stream_property should not work with aliases.
|
|
|
|

<LI> FIXED: ISO mode activates fileerrors.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: avoid using atom_chars within the system.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: number_chars(X,I) and number_codes/2 with bad I
|
|
|
|
|
should give error in ISO mode.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: make ISO abolish/1 succeed for undefined procedures.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: number_chars and atom_chars should be ISO
|
|
|
|
|
compatible in ISO mode.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: errors in call should throw ISO errors.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: functor/3 should now have standard ISO behaviour on
|
|
|
|
|
errors.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: assert(X) would loop.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: char_conversion/2 is now also a directive.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: ensure_loaded/1 should be directive and not a built-in.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: current_predicate/1 should not show system
|
|
|
|
|
predicates and should be module aware.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: utilpred.s now compiles with -DEUROTRA.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: abolish/1 had several nasty bugs, especially in ISO mode.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> CLEANUP: got rid of nasty config.cache in main directory.

|
|
|
|
|
full meta-call, and a system catch, that uses $execute0 and

$mod_switch and that should be only used deep within the bowels

<LI> Restoring embedded C-functions is now performed by
|
|
|
|
|
restore_heap together with InitStaff.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> The code to restore a clause has been updated to use
|
|
|
|
|
yamop and GONEXT. The same code does both indices and clauses.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> All macros that adjust pointers are now functions,
|
|
|
|
|
and type-check their arguments.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> All functions that restore a stack (from restore,
|
|
|
|
|
growheap and growlocal) have now been merged in a general
|
|
|
|
|
function in grow.c. This decreases efficiency slightly, but
|
|
|
|
|
should improve maintainability.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> InitStaff() now has an argument saying whether we are
|
|
|
|
|
calling from boot or from restore. Note that most Prolog
|
|
|
|
|
executions will actually call InitStaff() twice.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> initialisation code in yap.c was simplified. Several
|
|
|
|
|
functions and variables were moved out to init.c.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> routines that start new goals were moved out of
|
|
|
|
|
cdmgr.c to exec.c.

</UL>

<LI> FIXED: all clauses should terminate with _Ystop, but we

<LI> NEW: save_program/2.

save_program.

<LI> FIXED: break should not remove choice-points.

<LI> FIXED: allow (call(X), X) to possibly succeed. It is
|
|
|
|

unclear whether that conforms to the ISO standard, but there
|
|
|
|

is the excuse it is SICStus compatible.

multi-assignment variables even if they were not heap

<LI> FIXED: call/1 was not importing modules correctly.
|
|

<LI> NEW: A library. Right now it just consists of
|
|
|
|
|
several files copied from the Edinburg Prolog library, with

little or no change. To use it, you must do "make install" or

have LIBDIR in the Makefile set to the YAP source directory.
|

<LI> FIXED: garbage in debugger.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: fix writing \+ (a,b) properly.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: get rid of addresses for the unify() routines. Unify
|
|
|
|
|
now receives values, as it should, instead of addresses.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: get rid of the representant stuff for
|
|
|
|
|
coroutining. Instead of trying to find out if we bound an
|
|
|
|
|
external variable, from now on we must guarantee that we
|
|
|
|
|
pass a non-dereferenced external variable (e.g. argument) to

the unification routine, otherwise delayed variables may not

<LI> FIXED: prompt (again).

reading and writing on sockets work, unify all close

operations on sockets, update iopreds to take special care of

always grow linearly. Change compiler to informe gc of actual

live variables in an environment at any point, not including

problem was that the hash function could return an offset <

<LI> NEW: in GC check if db terms are in use, and if not reset

<LI> FIXED: random would only work in Linux.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: better names for array_element/3 and update_array/3.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: array access now does boundary checking, and fails
|
|
|
|
|
if you try to access an undefined reference.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: profiling now counts calls to non-profiled
|
|
|
|
|
predicates, included system built-ins.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: profiling now does not need to disable indexing.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: predicate_property was returning just the name for
|
|
|
|
|
unbound calls.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: putenv/2. If you want to start shell scripts.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: YAP now supports 8 bits char sets. The default is iso-latin.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: call_residue/2 now available.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: serious bug in can_unify: HB was not set to
|
|
|
|
|
H. Should be no problem with B.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: trim_trail is not compatible with Multi-Assignment
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

<LI> FIXED: under a few cases code could have problems if some
|

<LI> NEW: improve absmi for coroutining.
|
|

<LI> FIXED: bug in statistics(runtime,T).
|
|

<LI> NEW: statics(walltime,T) and internal walltime() function
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: changed code that assumed dir_separator could only
|
|
|
|
|
be a single character. Some MS-DOS systems accept both slash
|
|
|
|
|
and backslash.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: for compatibility with other Prologs, YAP now
|
|
|
|
|
changes directory to the directory
|

containing the file it is consulting. Don't need to create an
|

|

<UL>
|

<LI> FIXED: bug in read_term/singletons. I incorrectly assumed
|
|
|
|
|
variables were being allocated in order.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: too much space was being allocated for 64 bit
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: error handling in data base could collapse.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: ASP for growheap could be wrong.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: growheap and growstack forgot about dangling
|
|
|
|
|
pointers in the trail.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: increase margins as garbage collections happens.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: make recorded and friends restartable for the
|
|
|
|
|
case there is no space left to copy the new term.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: make memory allocation routine more generic, try
|
|
|
|
|
to use temporary files when /dev/zero is not available,
|
|
|
|
|
control whether we are fetching the right addresses, and
|
|
|
|
|
close open mmaped stream.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: make sure we always have an error handler in the
|
|
|
|
|
debugger.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: GC should now work with named dynamic arrays and
|
|
|
|
|
array extensions. Access to named dynamic arrays now goes
|
|
|
|
|
through the trail.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: make arg/3 silently fail on negative or 0 first
|
|
|
|
|
arguments. Breaks the ISO standard, but seems to be compatible
|
|
|
|
|
with other Prologs.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: dequeue could leave dangling pointers to the data-base.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: bad error handling in arithmetic built-ins.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: absolute_file_name/2 was buggy.

<LI> NEW: extend C-interface to allow calling back Prolog.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: moved to version 98.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: variable ppc was causing trouble with Rhapsody.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: GC should now work with coroutining.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: coroutining had bug with reference chains.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: error handler called unexisting procedure $close/2.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: small bug in unknown/2.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> CLEANUP: improve meta-call performance by avoiding
|
|
|
|
|
unnecessary choice-points.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: assert and source mode are now aware that modules
|
|
|
|
|
call meta-calls.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: libraries should be checked for existence before
|
|
|
|
|
checking for the files themselves.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: dynamic loader now works in Linux/Alpha and in
|
|
|
|
|
Digital Unix/Alpha! Fixed bugs where YAP would corrupt global
|
|
|
|
|
variables allocated by external functions.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: BP_FREE didn't do callee save for PREG, possibly
|
|
|
|
|
corrupting the caller. Core dumped print/1 on X86.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> CLEANUP: separate error handling into separate files.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: RATIONAL_TREES should now work in all built-ins.

<LI> NEW: execute_goal(Goal) function allows calling
|
|
|
|

Prolog from C. Still under testing, and not yet officially in
|
|
|
|
|
the interface. Note that execute_goal will destroy all X

arguments, and that it only keeps the first solution (it
|
|
|
|
|
performs an implicit cut).
|
|
|

<LI> FIXED: complaints while compiling YAP in WIN/NT platform.
|

<LI> FIXED: debugger got confused when quasi-skipping through

inline builtins
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> FIXED: DEPTH_BOUND_CALL was not restoring depth for retry_c.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> NEW: compilation flag LOW_LEVEL_TRACER, if this flag is
|
|
|
|
|
defined, enables detailing execution. Use
|
|
|
|
|
start_low_level_trace and stop_level_trace, or T from

interrupt to access this functionality.
|

|
<LI> CLEANUP: overflows are now processed within the
|
|
|
|
|
emulator, not back in the caller.
|
|

<LI> FIXED: memory allocation during boot could crash returning NULL
|

pointer, system would then crash.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> ISO-YAP: many new predicates, major rewrite of manual.
|

|
<LI> FIXED: debugger should now understand better immediate

update semantics (eg, dynamic predicates).
|

<LI> ISO-YAP: all error handling is now ISO style.
|

<LI> FIXED: could not write MIN_INT
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> ISO-YAP: add Z is float_integer_part(X).
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> ISO-YAP: add Z is float_fractional_part(X).
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> ISO-YAP: arg/3 now generates errors.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> ISO-YAP: abolish/1 now does errors the YAP way, and
|
|
|
|
|
only abolishes dynamic procedures. Use abolish/2 to clear
|
|
|
|
|
static procedures.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> break boot.yap file into smaller files.
|
|
|

<LI> X now is called XREGS to avoid problems with Linux/Alpha
|

|
includes.
|
|
|
|
|
<LI> Abort now jumps to before the absmi emulator and then
|
|

does a long cut. This should simplify YapOr, and allow for

restricting toplevels.
