2006-09-04* Use a proper namespace.Eelco Dolstra
* Optimise header file usage a bit. * Compile the parser as C++.
2006-07-28* `nix-instantiate ... --arg NAME VALUE': allow arguments to be passedEelco Dolstra
to functions from the command line. * nix-build: started removing backticks.
2006-07-26* Refactoring: get the selection path stuff out of getDerivations()Eelco Dolstra
and put it into a separate function findAlongAttrPath().
2006-07-25* `nix-instantiate --print-args' prints out the arguments of aEelco Dolstra
top-level function.
2006-07-25* Applied rbroek's patch from the branch atEelco Dolstra
https://svn.cs.uu.nl:12443/repos/trace/buildfarm-control/trunk/ext/nix/, with some modifications. This allows `nix-env -qa' to show the attribute path that can be used to unambiguously install a package using `nix-env -i -A'. Example: $ nix-env -f top-level/all-packages.nix -qaA subversion xorg-server subversionWithJava subversion-1.2.3 subversion subversion-1.3.2 subversion14 subversion-1.4.0pre-rc1 xorg.xorgserver xorg-server-1.1.0
2006-07-24* Refactoring to support domain checks.Eelco Dolstra
2006-07-19* Better error messages (especially wrt types).Eelco Dolstra
2006-05-30* Don't use badTerm, it gives awful error messages.Eelco Dolstra
2006-05-04* Use the new ATermMap.Eelco Dolstra
2006-05-02* Huge reduction in memory use (2/3 or so on large nix-env -qasEelco Dolstra
operations): share ATermMaps between DrvInfos.
2006-05-02* Some preliminaries towards NIX-45.Eelco Dolstra
2006-05-01* Allow string concatenations involving derivations, e.g.,Eelco Dolstra
configureFlags = "--with-freetype2-library=" + freetype + "/lib";
2006-03-23* In `nix-env', look for derivations inside attribute sets that haveEelco Dolstra
the `recurseForDerivations' attribute set to `true'.
2006-03-10* `nix-env -qa --description' shows human-readable descriptions ofEelco Dolstra
packages (provided that they have a `meta.description' attribute). E.g., $ ./src/nix-env/nix-env -qa --description gcc gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for sparc-linux) gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for mips-linux) gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x (cross-compiler for arm-linux) gcc-4.0.2 GNU Compiler Collection, 4.0.x
2006-03-09* Regression: semantics of the result of getDerivation() changed.Eelco Dolstra
2006-03-08* When obtaining derivations from Nix expressions, ignore allEelco Dolstra
expressions that cause an assertion failure (like `assert system == "i686-linux"'). This allows all-packages.nix in Nixpkgs to be used on all platforms, even if some Nix expressions don't work on all platforms. Not sure if this is a good idea; it's a bit hacky. In particular, due to laziness some derivations might appear in `nix-env -qa' but disappear in `nix-env -qas' or `nix-env -i'. Commit 5000!
2006-02-10* In nix-instantiate, allow us to specify a "path" to theEelco Dolstra
derivation(s) we're interested, e.g., $ nix-instantiate ./all-packages.nix --attr xlibs.libX11 List elements can also be selected: $ nix-instantiate ./build-for-release.nix --attr 0.subversion This allows a non-ambiguous specification of a derivation. Of course, this should also be added to nix-env and nix-build.
2006-02-08* When querying all derivations, filter out syntactically equal derivations.Eelco Dolstra
2006-02-08* When evaluating, automatically call functions with default arguments.Eelco Dolstra
2006-02-08* Refactoring: move derivation evaluation to libexpr.Eelco Dolstra
