Stefano Lattarini 7df8b28c 2012-12-31T18:18:37 maint: update copyright year for 2013 (in branch maint) Signed-off-by: Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattarini@gmail.com>
Stefano Lattarini ddac0505 2012-03-07T23:26:24 getopt: relax version requirement for perl * lib/Automake/Getopt.pm: Require perl 5.6.0, not 5.6.2: the former is enough. See also commit 'v1.11-2054-g7df05a0' on master (dated 04-03-2012).
Stefano Lattarini 7df05a0b 2012-03-04T15:44:46 maint: require perl 5.6 throughout That version of perl is quite old already, so it should be OK to require it. More importantly, it is the older perl versions the developers can currently use for testing, thus it's safer and more honest to just require it throughout. And anyway, we were already requiring it in Automake::Getopt, which implied that both automake and aclocal wouldn't have worked in practice with an older perl version. See also the discussion related to automake bug#10925. * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm: Adjusted to require perl 5.6. * lib/Automake/Channels.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Condition.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/General.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Item.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/ItemDef.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Location.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Options.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Rule.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/RuleDef.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Struct.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/VarDef.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Variable.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Version.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/Wrap.pm: Likewise. * lib/Automake/XFile.pm: Likewise.
Stefano Lattarini 3e887a13 2012-02-23T20:25:26 pm: do not quote `like this', as per GCS recommendation This patch converts the internal perl modules used by automake and aclocal to the use of new quoting format 'like this' or "like this" rather than `like this'. * lib/Automake/ChannelDefs.pm, lib/Automake/Channels.pm, lib/Automake/Condition.pm, lib/Automake/Configure_ac.pm, lib/Automake/DisjConditions.pm, lib/Automake/FileUtils.pm, lib/Automake/General.pm, lib/Automake/Item.pm, lib/Automake/Rule.pm, lib/Automake/Getopt.pm, lib/Automake/Options.pm, lib/Automake/Struct.pm, lib/Automake/VarDef.pm, lib/Automake/Variable.pm, lib/Automake/Version.pm, lib/Automake/XFile.pm: Update and adjust quoting format throughout, in comments and diagnostic. Some minor related rewordings and reformatting since we are at it.
Stefano Lattarini 52246cc7 2012-01-18T17:55:40 cmdline parsing: move into a dedicated perl module With this change, we delegate most of the automake and aclocal code for command-line options parsing to a new module "Automake::Getopt". This allows better code sharing between automake and aclocal, and also with Autoconf, which will sync the new module from us. See also autoconf commit 'v2.68-120-gf4be358' (2012-01-17, "getopt: new Autom4te::Getopt module"), and this mailing list discussion: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf-patches/2012-01/msg00033.html> This change might interact with the behaviour described in automake bug#7434; for example, starting from now, "automake -Wfoo --version" will cause automake to emit diagnostic like "unknown warning category 'foo'" before actually printing the version number and exiting. This is not a big deal in practice, and the code sharing and simplifications introduced by this patch is certainly worth it. Still, we should revisited the issue in the future. * lib/Automake/Getopt.pm: New module, basically a slightly-edited copy of the 'lib/Autom4te/Getopt.pm' file from the autoconf devel repository (commit v2.68-120-gf4be358). It defines and exports ... (parse_options): ... this new function. * automake.in (parse_arguments): Use the new function. * aclocal.in (parse_arguments): Likewise. * lib/Automake/Makefile.am (dist_perllib_DATA): Add the new file. * tests/getopt.test: Remove. * tests/list-of-tests.mk: Update.
