When a module is loaded from bytecode and then the value of
`use-compiled-file-paths' changes, an attempt to load a submodule
would fail, because source isn't used if the main module is
already declared, and the bytecode code is not used according to
`use-compiled-file-paths'. Make the bytecode path stick when it
is used once, so that submodule loads succeed, and make it work
even with `namespace-module-attach'.
The module-attach part of this protocol requires a change to the
API of a module name resolver: the notification mode gets two
arguments, instead of one, where the second argument is an
environment.
The new names are `prompt-tag/c` and `continuation-mark-key/c`
to keep the names consistent with the values that are being
contracted. Also updated the HISTORY file.
Add a `#:nothing' argument so the no-value value can be
made explicit --- based on discussion with Eli, but pending
further review.
Also, renamed `#:first' to `#:before-first' and `#:last' to
`#:after-last' to be more clear, more parallel ro `#:before-last',
and avoid a collision with prominent function names.
For all currently supported platforms, the result was already
portable, despite the documentation's hedging.
Also fixed up the documentation in other ways, such as the fact
that `seconds->date' returns a `date*'.
Includes the addition of 'overflow and 'start-overflow-work
events, whcih are effectively specializations of 'sync and
'start-work to expose overflow handling.
Also, fix a bug related to a potential GC during mark-stack
restore from a lightweight continuation.
The new predicates are `progress-evt?' `thread-cell-values?',
`prefab-key?', `semaphore-peek-evt?', and `channel-put-evt?'.
These were used internally, and now they appear in contract
error messages.
A common Slideshow pattern is to put a subset of slides in its
own module with a `run-slides' function, and then you'd
(un)comment a `(run-slides)' call at the end of the module to
work on the subset by itself. Now, you can write
`(module+ main (run-slides))' atthe end of the module and not
have to comment it out. Adding `main' support to the `slideshow'
executable makes it more consistent with using `racket' directly.
Checking first for a `slideshow' submodule makes it possible
for `slideshow' and `racket' to do different things, in case
that's useful.
When supplying an accessor to redirect, either the corresponding field
must be accessible through the current inspector, or a mutator for
the same field must be redirected, too.
Stevie realized that we need this constraint; otherwise, impersonators
can implement mutator-like behavior even when the mutator is otherwise
secret.
Add `raise-argument-error', `raise-result-error', `raise-arguments-error',
and `raise-range-error'.
The old convention was designed for reporting on a single (sometimes very
long line). The new convention is
<name>: <short message>
<field>: <detail>
...
If <detail> is long or itself spans multiple lines, then it may
also use the form
<field>:
<detail>
where each line of <detail> is indented by 3 spaces.
Backtrace information is shown as a multi-line "context" field.
Also, use keywords for `make-pen' and `make-brush'.
Adding `make-pen' and `make-color' creates many conflicts among
teaching libraries, such as `2htdp/image'. These are easy to fix
up in the tree, but adding such obvious names to `racket/draw'
may create other compatibility problems, so we might have to reconsider
the names.
In consultation with Asumu.
The preserved path is exposed by a new `module-path-index-submodule'
function, and `module-path-index-join' now accepts an optional
submodule path.
Also, fixed a problem with `collapse-module-path-index' when
a module path indx is built on a resolved module path that
is a submodule path.
In addition to the main repair, `collapse-module-path[-index]' is
correctly documented to allow '(quote <sym>) rel-to paths.
Finally, `collapse-module-path-index' changed to use a symbolic
resolved module path that appears as the base of a module path
index, rather than falling back to the given rel-to path. It's
possble that the old beavior was intentional, but it wasn't tested,
and it seems more likely to have been a bug.
