Also fix marshalling functions without full
sourcemapping information, as well as thread/receive
ignoring bad messages. Instead, thread/receive will error
on bad messages.
- Add thread/exit to kill the current thread.
- Add global lock aroung custom getline and add atexit handler
- to prevent any possible issues when exiting program.
- Allow sending stderr, stdout, and stdin over thread.
Since you already incur the cost of creating the
core environment, this is probably what you want anyways.
This will make eval and other reflective code work as expected.
This allows unmarshal to optional marshal raw
pointers and cfunctions and send them across threads.
This flag is only exposed in the C API as it is very easy
to misuse and cause segfaults.
The %q formatter for janet_formatc now expects a Janet, not a JanetString or
JanetSymbol or JanetKeyword.
Also fix some reference counting issues with threads when destroying
threads, which should fix#287's
SIGSEGV. Still fails to send messages sometimes, though.
Required a few changes to APIs, namely janet_root_fiber()
to get topmost fiber that is active in the current scheduler.
This is distinct from janet_current_fiber(), which gets the bottom
most fiber in the fiber stack - it might have a parent, and so cannot
be reliably resumed.
This is the kind of situation that makes symmetric coroutines more
attractive.
This means we can add new properties to abstract types without
breaking old code. We can also make simple abstract types without
needing to add many NULL fields to the type.
Also make integer to size_t casts explicit rather than relying on
int32_t * sizeof(x) = size_t. This is kind of a personal preference for
this problem.
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 unifies equality and comparison checking. Before, we had
separate functions and vm opcodes for comparing general values vs.
for comparing numbers, where the numberic functions were polymorphic and
had special cases for handling NaNs. By unfiying them, abstract types
can now better integrate with other number types and behave as keys.
For now, the old functions are aliased but will eventually be removed.
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.
(thread/send thread msg &opt timeout) can now timeout. Also
changed thread/self to thread/current for better consistency with
fibers, and all blocking operations will by default timeout after 1
second. I think its bad to make things block forerver by default.
