Eelco Dolstra
1d61e473c8 * New query `nix --query --predecessors' to print the predecessors of
a Nix expression.

0abe185688 * `nix --verify': check and repair reverse mapping for successors. 2003-10-10 15:14:29 +00:00

d3d5e77810 * Reverse mappings for the successor and substitute mappings. 2003-10-10 14:46:28 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
1eb4da156c * Performance improvement: don't register already registered terms,
thus greatly reducing the number of db transactions.

08b7319f5b * Follow successors by default (use `--no-successors' to override). 2003-10-09 15:38:31 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
6409c215e5 * Fixed nix-switch. 2003-10-09 15:37:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
6baa2c4420 * Get rid of identifiers since they are redundant now. This greatly
simplifies stuff.

* The format of Nix expressions and the database schema changed
  because of this, so it's best to delete old Nix installations.

b9f4942bd2 * string -> Path. 2003-10-07 14:37:41 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
5d4171f7fb * Synchronise terminology with the ICSE paper (e.g., slice -> closure,
fstate -> Nix expression).
* Fix src/test.cc.

563afb7fcc * Use passive FTP in wget. 2003-10-02 15:48:47 +00:00

e78f753aa8 * Include the right files in a distribution. 2003-10-02 12:22:19 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
4193d62e08 * Nix now respects $TMPDIR for the creation of temporary build directories.
* Retry creation of a temporary directory (with a different name) in the 
  case of EEXIST.

9fb94f4f2f * Forgot a file. 2003-09-24 08:39:49 +00:00

9ba2397ea9 * Added missing files to `make dist'. 2003-09-24 08:28:04 +00:00

41730f5779 * Put the SVN revision number in the version string. 2003-09-23 14:26:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
1c7d6bf5fc * Removed references to char_traits so that boost/format also works on
GCC 2.95.

d930a9bc5a * Added some missing #includes. 2003-09-11 08:31:29 +00:00

803a924b77 * Make nicer dot graphs. Also show the inner structure of slices. 2003-09-03 14:49:58 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
c0bbed0959 * Factored out dot graph generation into a separate file. 2003-09-03 11:20:18 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
0d2bc68681 * Do not show the output of the builder unless the verbosity is at
least at debug level (-vvv).  The output is still appended to the 
  build log in /nix/var/log/nix.

25304af72e * Set a path. 2003-08-28 10:51:52 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
b018517314 * Do not try to remove write permission from symlinks, since chmod()
follows symlinks.  (Note that the permissions on symlinks are
  ignored anyway.)

c4f1f49574 * nix-push generated invalid (old-style) slices.
* nar.sh needs a path.
2003-08-28 10:10:12 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
31be53cd0a * Fix the atrocious (exponential? factorial?) time complexity in
`nix --query --requisites'.

920193beb1 * Don't continue when the call to nix fails. 2003-08-25 14:36:04 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
a88144215c * Remove write permission from output paths after they have been built.
* Point $HOME to a non-existing path when building to prevent certain tools (such as 
  wget) from falling back on /etc/passwd to locate the home directory (which we 
  don't want them to look at since it's not declared as an input).

56b98c3857 * Some work on the introduction. 2003-08-22 11:29:20 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
956801fcc2 * Use maps and sets in the FState data type. This ensures normalisation of
slices and derivations w.r.t. order of paths, slice elements, etc.
2003-08-20 14:11:40 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
624c48260f * Change the abstract syntax of slices. It used to be that ids were used as
keys to reference slice elements, e.g.,

    Slice(["1ef7..."], [("/nix/store/1ef7...-foo", "1ef7", ["8c99..."]), ...])

  This was wrong, since ids represent contents, not locations.  Therefore we
  now have:

    Slice(["/nix/store/1ef7..."], [("/nix/store/1ef7...-foo", "1ef7", ["/nix/store/8c99-..."]), ...])

* Fix a bug in the computation of slice closures that could cause slice
  elements to be duplicated.

710175e6a0 * Bumped the version number to 0.3. 2003-08-20 11:31:15 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
ed0db2e0d8 * Fixed a serious bug in the computation of slices. Sometimes the slices
would not be properly closed under the path reference relation.

1472cc4825 * Pipe /dev/null into stdin. 2003-08-19 13:07:38 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
2de8504791 * Delete the temporary directories of failed builds by default, and an
option `--keep-failed' to override this behaviour.
2003-08-19 09:04:47 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
31e4aa6439 * Allow lists in package bindings, e.g.,
("srcs", [Relative("foo/bar.c"), Relative("foo/baz.h")])

  The result is an environment variable that contains the path names of the
  inputs separated by spaces (so this is not safe for values containing
  spaces).

ebbb6ce578 * Most shells initialise PATH to some default (/bin:/usr/bin:...)
when PATH is not set.  We don't want this, so fill it in with
  some dummy value.

c32e01eab2 * Revision 300!
* Put `@' in front of echo's in the Makefile.

08f9cfe267 * No longer automatically download Berkeley DB / ATerm. 2003-08-18 08:35:16 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
96c7b98bf0 * Argument support in Fix. Arguments can be passed through the
builder using the `args' binding:

  ("args", ["bla", True, IncludeFix("aterm/aterm.fix")])

  Note that packages can also be declared as inputs by specifying them
  in the argument list.
2003-08-15 13:01:45 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
555347744d * Derivation expressions now can specify arguments to be passed to the
builder.  Note that this unfortunately causes all Fix-computed
  hashes to change.
2003-08-15 12:32:37 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
e374dbf89b * A script `nix-prefetch-url' to fetch a URL, place it in the Nix
store, and print its hash.

01e30360d4 * Don't use a temporary file. 2003-08-15 09:39:33 +00:00

163db7367f * Fix can now read expressions from stdin (by saying `fix -'). 2003-08-15 09:21:19 +00:00

161aab582b * Use a catalog when calling xsltproc. 2003-08-14 18:24:40 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
a24cb19361 * Use xmllint instead of nsgmls to validate the manual. 2003-08-14 18:17:02 +00:00
