The SpiderMonkey support in ELinks now uses JS_GetReservedSlot,
which was added in SpiderMonkey 1.5 RC3a, released on 2001-05-11.
So ELinks no longer supports earlier versions of SpiderMonkey.
However, be careful not to claim that ELinks needs "SpiderMonkey
1.5 RC3a or later", because we haven't tested 1.5 RC3a.
(I guess we didn't test zlib 1.2.0.2 either... oh, well.)
I'm not sure if JS_GetReservedSlot exists in all versions of the SpiderMonkey.
IMHO the configure script should check for JS_GetReservedSlot.
The patch in the attachment.
It was reported at elinks-dev on 2007-06-03 that Solaris 10 comes with
zlib 1.1.4, which does not include gzclearerr(), which ELinks nowadays
requires. It would be possible to rewrite the decompression support
to use deflate() directly and avoid stdio, in which case gzclearerr()
would not be needed. That will take some time however, so I'm not
attempting it for ELinks 0.12.0. Instead, I'm just disabling gzip
decompression entirely if zlib is too old.
The configure script checks whether it is possible to compile a use of
POPpx without an n_a variable; if not, the source code then defines
those variables. This is slower than including Perl's patchlevel.h
and comparing the version numbers to 5.8.8 but I expect this to be
more reliable as well.
CPPFLAGS was dropped[1] back on 2004-04-24. Then a workaround was
introduced by commit 6d7e9bfe5b to fix
compilation on FreeBSD that used CPPFLAGS to store iconv related flags.
The use of CPPFLAGS with respect to the COMPILE "macro" reappeared in
40e257bedd on 2006-08-05.
This commit makes configure.in print CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS. Before,
CPPFLAGS and CFLAGS was mixed together in the feature summary. It also
restores the use of CPPFLAGS storing iconv related flags but keeps the
use of the SAVE/RESTORE_FLAGS in the iconv macro.

src/protocol/smb/smb.c: Added #error directives so that this
vulnerable code cannot be accidentally compiled in.
features.conf: Disable CONFIG_SMB by default and explain why.
configure.in: If CONFIG_SMB is enabled, disable it and warn the user.
This is for people who have customized features.conf.
This reverts the following commits:
- 86ed79deaf
Use wcwidth if available and applicable.
- 304f5fa1ea
comment fix (__STDC_ISO_10646__, not __STDC_ISO_10646)
- part of 71eebf1cc7
Compensate for glibc not defining wcwidth() when _XOPEN_SOURCE is not set
And adds a lengthy comment about LC_CTYPE problems.
The configure script no longer recognizes "CONFIG_UTF_8=yes" lines
in custom features.conf files. They will have to be changed to
"CONFIG_UTF8=yes". This incompatibility was deemed acceptable
because no released version of ELinks supports CONFIG_UTF_8.
The --enable-utf-8 option was not renamed.
... since the latter is for printing int64_T and we don't check for that and
we use PRId64 only for printing values having the off_t types.
Besides off_t has it's own ELinks specific defaults so it should be safer
to use an internal format string. If off_t is 8 bytes use "lld" else use
"ld".

Use the new names instead of the deprecated names to increase
the likelihood that later versions, which might lack the
backwards-compatibility wrappers, will work.
This changes GC checking to use the EL_CHECK_OPTIONAL_LIBRARY macro to
reduce redundancy. This means that there is --with-gc instead of
--enable-gc so you can pass it a path, which is needed on Debian systems
where <gc.h> resides in /usr/include/gc/gc.h.
The macro is adapted accordingly to serve the above purpose. That is,
"$withval/include" and "$withval/lib" is only appended to CFLAGS and LIBS
if they exist (else "$withval" is appended to CFLAGS).
- Use EL_ARG_DEPENDS(), the other way ended up in undefined symbols
errors with --enable-fsp and no fsplib.
- Also check for -lfsp in addition to -lfsplib.
- This could probably also use a --with-fsplib or something to specify the
path, had problems with that too, because fsplib-0.7 installed into
/usr/local, ...
This changes the init target to be idempotent: most importantly it will now
never overwrite a Makefile if it exists. Additionally 'make init' will
generate the .vimrc files. Yay, no more stupid 'added fairies' commits! ;)
- Remove AC_PROG_MAKE_SET; we's be using GNU.
- Don't AC_SUBST() SPARSE; AC_PATH_PROGS() already does that.
- Fix cleaning after previous builds by moving up builddir setting
and only cleaning under $builddir/src/ so as not to launch infinite
reruns of configure.
Either set CONFIG_SM_SCRIPTING in features.conf or pass to ./configure the
option --disable-sm-scripting. Now scripting is also enabled when needed
and not only if some other scripting backend is enabled.
Remove some remnants of SEE scripting backend.
The following patch makes the configure script of ELinks ignore an
installed GNUTLS that is too old. If --with-gnutls was specified, this
results in a fatal error.
Tested with:
- Debian libgnutls11-dev 1.0.16-14, configure --with-gnutls
-> error at configure time
- Debian libgnutls-dev 1.2.9-2, configure --with-gnutls
-> compiles OK
... but only if Makefile.config exists. cleanall will cause make to enter
even SUBDIR-no dirs and clean OBJS-no files. This should fix the linking
problem report by zas when running:
./configure --enable-fastmem ; make ; \
./configure --enable-debug ; make
SEE is David Leonard's Simple Ecmascript Engine. The SEE scripting backend
is very raw and not tested very much. The idea was to see what kind of
creature SEE is (and contradict pasky's aired opinion that no new features
are added anymore ;).
echo 'function goto_url() { return 'localhost'; }' > ~/.elinks/hooks.js
and get local for maximum security ...
FYI: SEE is smaller than Spidermonkey but doesn't have the same kind of
data-driven interface, although it looks like it is possible to build that.
Involves prefixing with $(srcdir) to some of the build rule variables. For
the builddir we create Makefiles which simply include the srcdir Makefile.
Add list make rule to get list of Makefiles to generate (find will get it
wrong for builddirs nested in srcdir).
There are still a few minor issues like the file paths echoed during make
install ...
Finally, we are able to identify the builds more accurately. Now we check
if commit-id (cogito tool) is available and pass the output to vernum.c
compilation which then exports it as a build_id string.
The first line of --version is now a bit long, we should probably move the
build date to a second indented line or something.
The root makefile is converted as well as some leaf Makefiles. This
also brings in the required infrastructure and adjusts configure.in
appropriately.
I converted only makefiles containing no configurable stuff, since
that'll require more consideration yet.
