there was a request to improve the error message, but the whole function
has non-informative errors. (both functions, actually, since the code is
duplicated)
as such, instead of catching it directly, address the assumption that
led to the SIGSEGV and let it be caught by the functions themselves,
thus reusing existing error messages (which can then be improved
separately).
When there is no format to be found after a %, get_fmt_mapping returns
NULL. It then gets called against strlen, which is a typical SEGV.
Check for NULL aginst mapping, which signals a null format being
specified.
Should make janet a bit easier to use. Also changes the
header to not expose the size of native mutexes and rwlocks, except
with janet_os_mutex_size and janet_os_rwlock_size.
We did not allow arbitrary utf8 to be printed with %j, even though the parser
allows. Thos changes uses the existing built in utf8 detectiotion to
exclude only unprintable symbols from the docstring.
The old function was not very useable. In the likely
case that there is no external code using this
(not well documented/janet_formatc is more convenient), we
can change this.
Because we use an amalgated build, feature
test macros should be set in a single file that
is included before any other headers, and is placed
at the top of the amalgamated build.
This adds several common patterns, which are defined in
boot.janet. This essentially gives more primitive patterns
to work with out of the box.
Fix build when JANET_REDUCED_OS is defined.
Also adds the janet_lengthv API call. This is
needed because janet_length returns a 32 bit integer, where
as lengthv lets us return larger values (useful for typed arrays).
janet_mcall is an api function that should make it easier to call
a janet method from C code. It shares a similar signature with
janet_call.
