Wed Dec 21 17:02:35 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * Make typedefs for structs work.

- Make get-slot-info (and thus foreign-slot-value) work on typedefs to a struct type. - Regression test: STRUCT.4

Wed Dec 21 10:54:27 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * Use fli:make-pointer instead of fli:*null-pointer*

Use FLI:MAKE-POINTER here instead of FLI:*NULL-POINTER* for implementing CFFI-SYS:NULL-POINTER since old versions of Lispworks don't seem to have the latter.

Tue Dec 20 04:38:49 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * CFFI-SYS-SPEC manual updates & Texinfo idioms

Patch from: Stephen Compall s11@member.fsf.org

- Use @var for arguments, rather than @code. - Use @deftpx for a chain of type defns, rather than repeated @deftp blocks. - Use @result{} instead of explicit =>. - Use @r with appropriate formatting for comments in @examples/@lisps. [didn't apply these changes since they didn't play well with the colorize script in the HTML output --luis] - Introduction: Convert naming convention to a list of general conventions, and define "foreign type". - Rename the pointer functions. - Document new functions. - Use new @impnote macro to add notes, so they can be conditionally removed from the manual.

Tue Dec 20 03:58:58 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * Forgot to export %close-foreign-library from cffi-lispworks.lisp

Thu Dec 15 15:45:26 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * Untabify cffi-ecl.lisp

Thu Dec 15 09:58:34 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * Preliminary support for close-foreign-library

Unimplemented for ECL and Corman. Lously implemented in CMUCL (and possibly in the other ports too). Not exported.

Wed Dec 14 11:08:39 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * Fix parsing of types to match UFFI's behaviour

Basically, extra quoting is supposed to be ignored. Thus 'foo, ''foo, '''foo, are all valid types.

Mon Dec 12 05:37:39 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * Bug fixes

- WITH-FOREIGN-OBJECT should eval the type parameter. Fixed this as well as the examples and tests that assumed it wasn't evaluated. - document WITH-FOREIGN-OBJECT in the manual. - removed the pseudo ability to specialize arguments on define-type-translator. That didn't quite work, doh. - removed dead code from cffi-uffi-compat::foreign-type-size specialized on the uffi-array-type. - uffi-compat: parse (:array <type>) as (:array <type> 1) - uffi-compat: reflect the fact that CFFI:WITH-FOREIGN-OBJECT now evaluates the type parameter.

Sun Dec 11 10:01:02 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * Fix uffi-compat wrt to the ptr->pointer changes

Sun Dec 11 06:45:57 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * Added GETENV to uffi-compat

Sun Dec 11 05:31:18 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * Oops

- Missing comma in define-type-translator. - Also, it almost but not quite accepted the method specifiers. Fixed.

Sun Dec 11 05:22:01 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * Type translation refactoring

- Refactoring of the type translation mechanism, now based on generic functions. The only user-visible changes is that you can now specialize the on the argument of the translator, and there's no type argument now (which was useless too for user-defined types). - Don't export define-type-spec-parser since it's useless on its own. - The anonymous :enum type is gone. - Updated manual.

Fri Dec 9 05:30:51 WET 2005 Luis Oliveira loliveira@common-lisp.net * Update manual: CMUCL passes all tests.
