Add `file-position*', which can return #f instead of raising
an exception when a port's position is unknown. Change
`make-input-port' and `make-output-port' to accept more
kinds of values as the initial position.
These changes make it possible to synchronize a port's
position with a `port-commit-peeked' action. It's ugly,
which I think reflect something broken about position
tracking in the port protocol (which seems difficult to fix
without breaking compaibility).
Providing a port instead of a reading or writing procedure
redirects the read/write to the specified port. This shortcut
is kind of a hack, but the run-time system can easily streamline
the redirection when it's exposed this way.
Using the new redirection feature reduces overhead in
`with-output-to-bytes' and `pretty-print'.
Since SIGHUP normally means that the output has gone away,
don't try to write to it.

problem that is noted in the PR)
corner of the definitions window, based on the information that check
syntax computes
This commit contains two separate changes to make this work:
- adding a new renderer, based on the text renderer, that
pulls out the contents of the blue boxes and saves them
in the doc/ directories (specifically in the files named
contract-blueboxes.rktd)
- extend check syntax to use and display the information
build by the new renderer
code that skips over them when building the search indices.
Overall, this means that the only change most people would see
is that multiple constructors in the same class will get a warning
(and there was one of those, so fixed that too).
Also, Rackety. Specifically, transformed this surprising combination
of constructs (where all caps are placeholders for something specific):
((if PRED
(λ (c mk) BODY2)
(λ (c mk) BODY1))
content
(lambda (tag) BODY3))
into this one:
(define (mk tag) BODY3)
(if PRED
BODY1{c:=content}
BODY2{c:=content})
Things wrong:
- indentation
- the dc callback didn't reset the dc state
(this is okay if you only use the pict
in the interactions window in drracket,
because drracket protects itself, but it
is not okay if you use them in slideshow
or something)
- the dc callback didn't use the 'dx' and 'dy'
arguments properly
(you could see this going wrong if you put
two of the picts together in an hc-append
and looked at the compound pict in the
interactions window)
conventions in 9.2.1 of the reference (altho the messages do
not yet do the extra level of indenting when a field is too
long, nor are there any field names ending in ...)
Also, fix the docs for the #:stronger argument to
make-contract, make-chaperone-contract, and make-flat-contract
A progress evt from a close input port must be initially ready,
and the primitive `peek-bytes-avail!' checks a progress evt
before checking whether the port is closed.
These changes resolve a race in `read-bytes-evt' and related evt
constructors.
Commit 18883681a2 reordered the methods. Although the convention in
the `racket/draw' manual is to order methods alphabetically,
alphabetical does look strange for `color%', and I've refined the
non-alphabetical order to one I like even more.
Leave it working in splicing mode. I prefer doing that over always
splicing them, since that would make a less uniform interface, so I
rather keep all options open. There is no longer a `#:nothing' keyword,
which is the main point of this downgrade.
(See mailing list discussion on "no-argument" for the reason.)
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 libraries moved were:
- mzlib/control => racket/control
- mzlib/date => racket/date
- mzlib/deflate => file/gzip
- mzlib/inflate => file/gunzip
- mzlib/port => racket/port
- mzlib/process => racket/system
- mzlib/runtime-path => racket/runtime-path
- mzlib/shared => racket/shared
- mzlib/unit => racket/unit
- mzlib/unit-exptime => racket/unit-exptime
- mzlib/zip => file/zip
The old modules in mzlib are now pointers to the
new modules. These are all modules that were already
redirected in the documentation.
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.
The generics library now generates a `name/c` macro
for a generic interface `name`. The combinator can be
used to contract instances (or constructors) of a
generic interface across standard contract boundaries.
See PR 12860; some of problem related to the PR were "fixed" by
adjusting the guarantees that are specified in the documentation.
Another problem was that non-consecutive bytes could be returned.
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*'.
* The old function was removed completely, people will get it from
`racket/base' anyway.
* I also removed its documentation. I thought about leaving a note in,
but if `define-ffi-definer' is the preferred style, then this should
be done when there's a way to make `define-ffi-definer' use it. (Eg,
some new #:keyword that adds a way to change the defined name.)
* Note that the function is added to `racket/private/string' and not to
`racket/string' because the latter deals only with strings, and the
new function accepts byte strings too. It might be better to start a
new `racket/regexp' module for these functions.
Add extra intitial-message lines, use "..." on a field name

and refine some existing messages.
Includes the addition of 'overflow and 'start-overflow-work
events, whcih are effectively specializations of 'sync and
'start-work to expose overflow handling.

- added some color (mostly to try to disambiguate the lines)
- several of the things named '*-element' actually belong under content, not element.
- element has 'content', not the substructs.
- convertible?s are content's.
- the 'content' field in an element is not a list, but simply a content.
- there are a bunch of things under target-element.
- image-element was missing fields
- collect-element was missing the collect field
For example, a syntactic form box is labeled with "SYNTAX". Forms
such as `defform' and `defthing' now support a `#:kind' option
for setting the label.
Added alises for call-with-continuation-prompt,
abort-current-continuation, and call-with-composable-continuation.
Also allow % and fcontrol to take an optional prompt tag argument.
Revise the subword matching to have three different levels for full
match (= a permutation of the input), a generic match for all parts, and
everything else.
Instead of just one array for exact results and one for all the rest,
use one array for each possible comparison result, and concatenate them
all for the final list.
Also, fix FFI procedures to preserve names: change `ptr-ref' with
`_fpointer' on an `ffi-obj' value to return the `ffi-obj'
value, so that the name in the `ffi-obj' value can be used
by `_cprocedure'.

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.
The text that says that (regexp-split #rx"whatever" "") returns '("")

If `input' contains no matches [...] the result is a list containing
input’s content [...] as a single element.
This is a little implicit, if you consider such an input as having
nothing left to match over so it's as if there is no input (with a port
this confusion is a little clearer).
Clarify with an example in the docs, and also add tests.

Otherwise, a reader is forced to reverse-engineer the

The properties appear in the inlining expansion of an application
of a keyword-accepting function, and they're mainly intended for
use by Typed Racket.
The property keys are hidden, so that the property value can be
trusted as originating from `racket/base'. The accessor functions are
`syntax-procedure-alias-property' and
`syntax-procedure-converted-arguments-property' from
`racket/keyword-transform'.
In consultation with Ryan. We'd prefer to have versions of all
useful things in a `racket/...' library that is consistent as
possible with Racket forms and conventions.

These primitives atomically update a box to a new value, as long
as the current value is the same as a provided value. They also
are future-safe.
When futures are enabled, they use low-level hardware instructions
to perform the change atomically.
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 example relied on the current code inspector affecting
syntax object created during `eval', but since the switch
from certificates to taints, the relevant code inspector is
determined by the namespace, and a namespace gets its code
inspector at creation time.

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.

library (mostly in opt/c)
Specifically:
- add inlining declaration for ->i helper function
- modernized the opt/c contracts and improved them so that mutually
recursive define-opt/c functions recognize each other instead of
bailing out to the slow path.
- added =/c as an optimized contract
- improve the error message for the between and comparison opt
contracts
- adjust the blame struct so the name is created lazily, since opt/c
contracts just stick a copy o the contract into the thunk that
creates the name and we don't want to run those effects twice if we
can help it.
Renamed `convert' to `pict-convert', etc., to avoid confusion

Moved out of `slideshow/pict' to `slideshow/pict-convert', because

'symbols'/'one-of/c's stronger check is.
This convention makes it easier to deal with a set
of ".rkt" files that implement tests, while a `test'
module implements a `main'-like split for some of the
files.
The `get-handle' method provides the underlying Cairo surface for
a bitmap, while the unsafe `make-handle-brush' function supports the
use of a Cairo surface as a `brush%'.
Also, add `racket/draw/unsafe/cairo-lib', which simplifies access
Cairo from external libraries. Documenting `racket/draw/unsafe/cairo'
might be better, but that's a lot more work.
The default is that hiniting is enabled, which causes some text
metrics (notably width) to be rounded to integer values, which makes
spacing more consistent. This default is backward-compatible. The
non-default 'unaligned mode refrains from rounding, which makes metric
information scale correctly and improves output for PS/PDF (such as
Redex output).
The `text' function from `slideshow/pict' defaults to
disabling hinting --- which is consistent with its default to combine
text instead of drawing character-by-character -- so slides and Redex
inherit the improvement.

Although th eoriginal idea was to distinguish "text" paths
from derived filesystem paths, practically everythign that accepts
a module path also accepts a path. Building the generalization into
`module-path?' makes it easier to support `submod' wrappers on paths,
and it seems to fix things rather than break them.
Previously, sandbox creation used `gui?', which is the result of
`gui-available?' at the time that `racket/sandbox' is instanited.
This change makes sandbox behavior less sensitive tothe order in
which modules `require'd into a program are intiantiated.
The change depends on a new `sandbox-make-namespace' default
function for `sandbox-namespace-specs'. The new function uses
either `make-base-namespace' or `make-gui-namespace', depending
on whether the GUI library is available at that point.
A new `sandbox-gui-enabled' parameter can disable use of the
GUI library even if it is available.
The `gui?' binding is still exported for backward compatibility,
but it shouldn't be used anymore.
