new .h files: hacklib.h selvar.h stairs.h
new .c files: calendar.c, getpos.c, report.c, selvar.c, stairs.c,
strutil.c, wizcmds.c
cleanup of hacklib.c and mdlib.c
hacklib contains functions that do not have to link with the core
relocate wiz commands from cmd.c to wizcmds.c
relocate CRASHREPORT stuff to report.c
relocate getpos stuff from do_name.c to getpos.c
remove temporary struct definition from extern.h
cross-compile PRE-section split into cross-pre1.370 and cross-pre2.370
Windows sys/windows/Makefile.nmake and sys/windows/Makefile.mingw32 and
visual studio project file updates
Unix sys/unix/Makefile.src, sys/unix/Makefile.utl
populate selvar.c and selvar.h
build on MS-DOS (not cross-compile) Makefile updates
for sys/msdos/Makefile.GCC (untested)
vms updates for above (untested)
creates new coloratt.c file
Also, this attempts to fulfill a wish-list item by paxed, to
allow naming colors in symbols file by name as an alternative
to using r-g-b values. The basic color names as well as html
color names are supported.
Default to INTERNET_AVAILABLE=Y. If the build computer is not
online with the internet available, an explicit
INTERNET_AVAILABLE=N
will be required for the build, if pdcurses and Lua are not already
staged in the lib folder. That can be done by editing the appropriate line
in the Makefile, or by altering the command line:
nmake INTERNET_AVAILABLE=N install
With Makefile.nmake:
Store pdcurses wingui and pdcurses wincon object files in separate
directories.
Rename the two pdcurses static libraries.
Because of the static library changes, the following will be required
prior to the next build:
nmake spotless
Compile-time option SELF_RECOVER was implemented for Windows;
add it to unix systems too, with it being on by default when
compiling with the linux hints file.
add CRASHREPORT for Windows
add ^P info to report (via DUMPLOG)
new options: crash_email, crash_name, crash_urlmax
new game command: #bugreport
new config option: CRASHREPORT_EXEC_NOSTDERR
new command line option: --bidshow
deleted helper scripts:
NetHackCrashReport.Javascript
nhcrashreport.lua
misc:
update CRASHREPORTURL (will need to be updated before release)
update bitrot in winchain
winchain for Windows
add missing synch_wait for NetHackW --showpaths
add PANICTRACE (and CRASHREPORT) in mdlib.c:build_opts
missing:
packaging (Windows needs the pdb file)
no testing with MSVC command line build
port status:
linux: working, but glibc's backtrace doesn't show static functions
Windows VS: working. pdb file is large - looking into options
MacOS: working
msdos: not supported
VMS: not supported
MSVC: planned, but not attempted
MSYS2: working, but libbacktrace not showing symbols (yet?)
Add distinct potential steps into Makefile.top for putting
sysconf into place, instead of appending the steps for doing so
to the generic POSTINSTALL.
SYSCONFINSTALL is used for 'make install' and unconditionally
copies sys/unix/sysconf to the install directory.
SYSCONFENSURE is used for 'make update' and only copies
sys/unix/sysconf to the installation directory if it doesn't
already exist.
The initial trigger for revisiting this was because of new reports
that cp from (GNU coreutils) 9.4 is now issuing a warning during
NetHack builds. The warning pertains to deprecated use of the '-n'
switch with cp, which is used to only copy the file if the target
does not exist.
After this update, the shell is used to make that determination,
and if the file doesn't exist, cp is now invoked on Linux without
the '-n' switch.
For the macOS hints file, macOS.370, cp wasn't being used for sysconf
anyway, a utility script was being invoked and this doesn't change
that. macOS.370 was updated to remain in sync with linux.370 and
Makefile.top regarding the use of SYSCONFINSTALL and SYSCONFENSURE.
- add nhl_pcall_handle() to wrap all nhl_pcall calls that didn't check
return value and either panic() or impossible()
- add --loglua (unix only) to dump Lua memory and steps info to livelog
- remove old logging
- set memory and step limits on all Lua VMs
WANT_SOURCE_INSTALL=1 can be specified when compiling to build NetHack
within the repo/source tree, rather than in the normal system install
location. I find it useful for development on OSX, but it wasn't
present in any other hints files, so I've been using a custom hints file
on Linux for a while that adds the same option. The code is based on
the macOS.370 hints file.
Before using this updated packaging you will need
to do the following (one time):
sh sys/msdos/fetch-cross-compiler.sh
And you'll need to update your Makefiles as follows.
On Linux:
sh sys/msdos/setup.sh sys/unix/hints/linux.370
or on macOS;
sh sys/msdos/setup.sh sys/unix/hints/macOS.370
Create the msdos package with:
make CROSS_TO_MSDOS=1 package
