According to Eric Blake on 11/22/2007 8:44 PM: > A lot of error messages include the macro name, and some even make the > enclosing macro name optional (such as detecting end of file in a string). > However, blindly printing a macro name to a tty can corrupt terminal > state, if the user has used changeword/changesyntax, or is using indir, to > include non-printing characters in the macro name. So this patch factors > out the macro name into the m4_warn function, so that a future patch can > use the gnulib quotearg module to protect strange macro names in one place > (other things also need help from quotearg, but one step at a time...). > The branch has the bigger impact, but even head is impacted. > > 2007-11-22 Eric Blake <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > More error messages tied to macro names. > * src/input.c (set_word_regexp): Take additional parameter. > (input_init): Adjust caller. > * src/debug.c (debug_set_file, debug_set_output): Take additional > parameter. > (debug_init): Adjust caller. > (expansion_level): Move declaration... > * src/m4.h (expansion_level): ...here. > (debug_set_output, set_word_regexp): Adjust prototypes. > * src/builtin.c (m4_changeword, m4_m4exit, m4_debugfile): Adjust > callers. > * src/m4.c (main): Likewise. > > Refactor error messages to avoid macros. > * src/m4.h (_): Define, as a placeholder for now. > (M4ERROR, M4ERROR_AT_LINE): Delete. > (m4_error, m4_error_at_line): Change prototype. > (m4_warn, m4_warn_at_line): New prototypes. > * src/m4.c (m4_verror_at_line): New helper function. > (m4_error, m4_error_at_line): Use new function, and properly call > va_end. > (m4_warn, m4_warn_at_line): New functions. > (stackovf_handler, main): All callers changed. > * src/builtin.c: Likewise. > * src/debug.c: Likewise. > * src/eval.c: Likewise. > * src/format.c: Likewise. > * src/freeze.c: Likewise. > * src/input.c: Likewise. > * src/macro.c: Likewise. > * doc/m4.texinfo (Indir, Builtin, Dumpdef, Incr, Eval, Substr) > (Improved forloop): Adjust tests accordingly. > I've also rebased the argv_ref branch on top of these changes. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
