Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author
2006-10-05	* Documented nix-store --dump / --restore.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-10-03	* toXML: propagate the context to allow derivations to be used in the	Eelco Dolstra
	argument.
2006-10-03	* toFile: added an additional argument to specify the store path	Eelco Dolstra
	suffix, e.g., `builtins.toFile "builder.sh" "..."'. * toFile: handle references to other files correctly.
2006-10-02	* Finally, a real "let" syntax: `let x = ...; ... z = ...; in ...'.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-10-02	* Hack for Bison 2.3 compatability.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-27	* Fix setuid builds.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-25	* Quick hack to let nix-install-package set the package name properly	Eelco Dolstra
	(e.g., "java-front-0.9pre15899" instead of "java-front"; particularly important when doing upgrades later on).
2006-09-24	* The result of a concatenation with a derivation on the left-hand	Eelco Dolstra
	side should be a path, I guess. * Handle paths that are in the store but not direct children of the store directory. * Ugh, hack to prevent double context wrapping.
2006-09-24	* Primop `toPath' to convert a string to a path.	Eelco Dolstra
	* Primop `pathExists' to check for path existence.
2006-09-24	* Builtin function `getEnv' for getting environment variables.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-24	* lessThan primitive for integer comparison.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-22	* Builtin function `add' to add integers.	Eelco Dolstra
	* Put common test functions in tests/lang/lib.nix.
2006-09-22	* Added a builtin function `isList' to test whether a value is a list.	Eelco Dolstra
	With this primitive, a list-flattening function can be implemented (NIX-55, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-flatten.nix).
2006-09-22	* Builtin functions `head' and `tail' to return the head and tail of	Eelco Dolstra
	list. Useful for lots of things, such as implementing a fold function (see NIX-30, example is in tests/lang/eval-okay-list.nix).
2006-09-22	* New builtin functions builtins.{hasAttr, getAttr} to check for	Eelco Dolstra
	attribute existence and to return an attribute from an attribute set, respectively. Example: `hasAttr "foo" {foo = 1;}'. They differ from the `?' and `.' operators in that the attribute name is an arbitrary expression. (NIX-61)
2006-09-22	* Use a bounded amount of memory in scanForReferences() by not reading	Eelco Dolstra
	regular files into memory all at once.
2006-09-22	* Don't allocate the buffer twice.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-22	* Don't allocate more than SIZE_MAX bytes.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-21	* GC options in nix-store --help (NIX-15).	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-21	* Fix comment.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-20	* Shut up a warning.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-20	* Print a better error message for wrong hashes (NIX-49).	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-14	* Wow, that bug has been there since r764.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-14	* nix-env --switch-generation / --list-generations /	Eelco Dolstra
	--delete-generations: lock the profile to prevent (extremely unlikely) race conditions.
2006-09-14	* Fix a huge gaping hole in nix-env w.r.t. the garbage collector.	Eelco Dolstra
	Nix-env failed to call addPermRoot(), which is necessary to safely add a new root. So if nix-env started after and finished before the garbage collector, the user environment (plus all other new stuff) it built might be garbage collected, leading to a dangling symlink chain in ~/.nix-profile... * Be more explicit if we block on the GC lock ("waiting for the big garbage collector lock..."). * Don't loop trying to create a new generation. It's not necessary anymore since profiles are locked nowadays.
2006-09-11	* Support `++'.	Eelco Dolstra
	* More follow restrictions on layout.
2006-09-08	* Remove debug message.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-05	* Missing #include.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-05	* Sone missing #includes.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-04	* Move setuid stuff to libutil.	Eelco Dolstra
	* Install libexpr header files.
2006-09-04	* Install header files in /nix/include/nix.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-04	* Remove unnecessary inclusions of aterm2.h.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-04	* Don't need extern "C".	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-04	* Compile the lexer as C++ code. Remove all the redundant C/C++	Eelco Dolstra
	marshalling code.
2006-09-04	* Use a proper namespace.	Eelco Dolstra
	* Optimise header file usage a bit. * Compile the parser as C++.
2006-09-04	* Store the Nix libraries in ${libdir}/nix instead of ${libdir}.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-09-01	* New primop: builtins.toFile, which writes a string into the store	Eelco Dolstra
	and returns its path. This can be used to (for instance) write builders inside a Nix expression, e.g., stdenv.mkDerivation { builder = " source $stdenv/setup ... "; ... }
2006-09-01	* Allow "$" in strings as long as they are not followed by "{". (Too	Eelco Dolstra
	bad flex doesn't have lexical restrictions, the current solution isn't quite right...)
2006-08-31	* Doh! Doh! Doh!	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-31	* Better error checking.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-30	* Okay, that's a bit harder than expected.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-30	* Uninitialised variable.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-29	* Support singleton values and nested lists again in `args', but print	Eelco Dolstra
	a warning.
2006-08-29	* Fix the ~ operator.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-28	* In toString, deal with nested lists properly (i.e., flatten them).	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-28	* Removed processBinding, instead we now apply toString to all	Eelco Dolstra
	derivation attributes to flatten them into strings. This is possible since string can nowadays be wrapped in contexts that describe the derivations/sources referenced by the evaluation of the string.
2006-08-26	* Refactoring.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-25	* Remove those storePath attribute sets, we don't need 'em.	Eelco Dolstra

2006-08-24	* Escape newlines in XML attributes to prevent them from being	Eelco Dolstra
	normalised away.
2006-08-24	* New primop __toXML (or builtins.toXML) to convert an expression to	Eelco Dolstra
	an XML representation stored in a string. This should be useful to pass structured information to builders.
