Re: [Chicken-hackers] will we have a release this year?

2012-09-24 Thread Andy Bennett
Hi,

The environments egg will not work under Chicken 4.7.4 and later, due
 to changes in the internal representation (also noted in the
 documentation). The rewrite branch is meant to fix this issue.

This was an error from the rewrite branch. We were wondering whether an
internal error such as the one reported would be from chicken or the egg.






Regards,
@ndy

Hi,

  I have been testing 4.8.0rc4 quite a bit this week, and everything
 seems to work fine, so if there are no objections, I will make the
 release next Monday.

Did people see my bug report on chicken-users regarding the environments
egg and eval? I posted in the Re: [Chicken-users] Chicken 4.8.0 release
candidate 4 now available thread on 2012/09/18.

Another was segfaulting and continued to segfault on 'load'. I narrowed
it down to this repro case in the interpreter:

-
#;1 (use environments)
#;2 (define widget-eval-env (make-parameter (environment-copy
(scheme-report-environment 5) #t)))
-

Using Mortiz's rewrite branch of the environments egg:
https://anonymous:@code.call-cc.org/svn/chicken-eggs/release/4/environments/branches/rewrite/
... stops the segfault.

I can get a binary out but it throws an exception somewhere it didn't
used to:

-
unbound variable
##sys#list
-

...and my debugging efforts so far point to a problem with eval and an
environment from the environments egg.

Thanks for all the release work!

I am happy to report a successful installation with gcc 4.7.2 (released some
hours ago), Linux, 64bit.

Since you are getting bored and we wouldn't want you to switch to
 C# or anything like this, perhaps I can just make the release after
 you are done with the keyword reading fix? This is already the Most
 Tested Release Candidate of Chicken Ever, so a release can be made
 with (some) confidence ;-)

 That was what I wanted to suggest. We only need the keyword fix signed
 off and wait for a salmonella run.

The keyword fix has been pushed and salmonella doesn't show anything
abnormal today:
http://tests.call-cc.org/master/linux/x86/2012/09/15/yesterday-diff/

So, I think we are ready to release.

Best wishes.
Mario

[Chicken-hackers] will we have a release this year?

2012-09-13 Thread Felix
Hi!


I'm slowly getting bored with this endless bugfixing. Can I make a new
release candidate, please? The one open bug is the keyword reading
stuff, a patch is pending. The OpenBSD bugs are 1) obscure and long
known (symbol-GC test), or 2) non-critical and caused by politically
correct compiler-warnings (scrutiny-test failure), which I do not see
as something that should block a release. The sh-stuff reported by
Claude is also nothing too serious, so let's get on with it, I want to
take a break.


cheers,
felix
