Only generate the classes' own funcs/events (and overridden). Let other
classes generate their own stuff. This prevents some files from being
generated multiple times, which more than halves generation time.
This allows us to unify retrieval of docs for both regular and
overridden funcs without having two separate APIs. It's currently
missing validation and docgen is still not adjusted properly for
it either, but at least there's this. Enables retrieval of docs
for overridden funcs by default as well.
As there is no need to have separate is_auto, is_empty and
is_pure_virtual for functions and implements (each function has
its own base implement by default) I removed the function ones.
Instead, I added a way to retrieve a function's base implement
so that you can instead do the checks on the implement even when
you only have the function.
I also moved base implement build directly into the parser instead
of the database filler. That allows for significant cleanup. I
also removed distinction of implement pointers in Eolian_Function
for get and set as implements now always contain an entire thing
so the pointer was always the same anyway.
Things should still behave more or less the same, but ordering
of generated functions has changed because ordering of implements
has changed.
Previously one API used just virtual (incorrect) and one used
virtual_pure (which just sounds weird). So unify with a single
name, pure_virtual, similar as in other lanugages.
This does not change eo file syntax yet.
Now all error/unknown/etc values returned from APIs are zero,
previously it was a mix of zeroes and minus ones. Also, some
enums that had no error/invalid value before have one now, which
allows for better distinction between what is an error and what
is an intended result.
As usual with our code, EFL_RUN_IN_TREE=1 will lead to usage of
binaries from the current build dir instead of system.
To make user life easier, add -l/--lifecycle-debug and
-L/--lifecycle-no-debug options, as well as -h/--help. The
lifecycle-debug option will export the correct environment variables,
such as EO_LIFECYCLE_DEBUG, EO_LIFECYCLE_NO_DEBUG and
EINA_LOG_LEVELS=eo_lifecycle:4 if no such level was set for that
domain.
Last but not least, pass all command's stderr thru eina_btlog so
backtraces are automatically translated to function names, files and
lines. This one was a bit trickier to respect colors and stdout/stderr
contents, see comments in the script.
This has been in the making for a very long time. Thanks to Marcel for
reminding me to do it.
What is it?
This is a tool to help application developers debug their apps with
everything Eo. Eo is strict, but not as strict as it can be. Many strict
tests and debug are very expensive to implement, and we have so many
hot-paths that even basic "ifs" to check if debugging is enabled will
add significant overhead to normal running applications. This is why I
created this library. All the expensive tests and bookkeeping should be
wrapped around with "#ifdef EO_DEBUG". With this change, libeo.so is
compiled twice, once normally, and once with this define set (as
libeo_dbg.so). This means that normal eo code will not be affected, but
if you decide to debug your application, all you need to do is:
LD_PRELOAD=/path/to/libeo_dbg.so ./app
Or use the convenient wrapper:
eo_debug ./app
Which will load the debug heavy version.
What's currently there: at the moment, EO_DEBUG enables xref and
data_xref and stricter tests when fetching object data.
In the future, I also plan introducing "zombie objects", which
essentially mean that objects are never really deleted, so you can query
them long after they are gone to get more information on what they were.
So if for example you have an object id that you want to query after the
object has been deleted, you can.
I also plan on having a way to disable/enable certain debug mode
features via env vars, and maybe make the test suite link against this
one instead of the normal one, and possibly add more internal hooks for
the test suite to better inspect internal state?
P.S: The amount of errors spewed out when running it on elementary_test
makes me wish I wrote this earlier. :(
