* [EXPAND] Add likely flags in expariHerbert Xu2007-10-11
| | | | The case where the expansion isn't quoted is the norm.
* [ARITH] Add assignment and intmax_t supportHerbert Xu2007-10-11
| | | | | This patch adds assignment operator support in arithmetic expansions. It also changes the type used to intmax_t.
* [PARSER] Report substition errors at expansion timeHerbert Xu2007-10-08

This patch moves the error detection to expansion time. Test case: if false; then echo ${a!7} fi echo OK Old result: dash: Syntax error: Bad substitution New result: OK
* [MEMALLOC] Add pushstackmarkHerbert Xu2007-10-06
| | | | | | | | This patch gets rid of the stack mark tracking hack by allocating a little bit of stack memory if we're at risk of planting a stack mark which may be grown later. To do this a new function pushstackmark is added which lets the user pick a bigger amount to allocate since some users do that anyway after setting a stack mark.
* [EXPAND] Refresh stack pointers after makestrspace in _rmescapesRoy Marples2007-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dash-0.5.3 has an issue reading some line lengths [1]. This is reproducable on amd64, but not on other arches for some reason. $ cat bug.sh (read line; echo "${line%%=*}") <<EOF TITLE=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx+xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx EOF printf "\ TITLE=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx+xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx " | (read line; echo "${line%%=*}") $ bash bug.sh TITLE TITLE $ dash bug.sh TITLE=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx+xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx TITLE Attahced is a patch to fix the issue Thanks Roy [1] http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=180680
* [EXPAND] Move parse-time quote flag detection to run-timeHerbert Xu2007-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because the parser does not recursively parse parameter expansion with respect to quotes, we can't accurately determine quote status at parse time. This patch works around this by moving the quote detection to run-time where we do interpret it recursively. Test case: foo=\\ echo "<${foo#[\\]}>" Old result: <\> New result: <>
* [EXPAND] Do not expand tilde in parameter expansion within quotesHerbert Xu2007-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously code was added so that tilde expansion was carried out parameter expansions within double quotes. This change was made with reference the behaviour of bash at the time. Bash has since be fixed so that this behaviour no longer occurs which is in line with most other POSIX shells. So this patch removes that behaviour in dash as well. Test case: unset a echo "${a:-~root}" Old result: /root New result: ~root
* [EXPAND] Perform tilde expansion in all parameter expansion wordsHerbert Xu2007-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously tilde expansion was not carried out for =?#% expansion words. This is contrary to the POSIX specification. Test case: a=~root:~root echo ${a#~root} Old result: /root:/root New result: :/root
* [EXPAND] Do not quote back slashes in parameter expansions outside quotesHerbert Xu2007-09-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Test case: a=/b/c/* b=\\ echo ${a%$b*} Old result: /b/c/* New result: /b/c/
* [EXPAND] Fixed inverted char class matchingHerbert Xu2006-10-04
| | | | | | | | The return value of ccmatch was being treated as 0 or 1 but it's actually zero or non-zero. This broke inverted character class matching. Reported by Alexander Skwar.
* [PARSER] Only use signed char for syntax arraysHerbert Xu2006-04-23
| | | | | | | | | The existing scheme of using the native char for syntax array indicies makes cross-compiling difficult. Therefore it makes sense to choose one specific sign for everyone. Since signed chars are native to most platforms and i386, it makes more sense to use that if we are to choose one type for everyone.
* Added missing system.h inclusion for mempcpyHerbert Xu2005-10-29
| | | | All users of mempcpy must include system.h.
* Fixed gcc 4.0 compilation problemsHerbert Xu2005-10-29
| | | | | | | | Removed obsolete extern declaration on funcnest. This conflits with the correct static definition. Changed memtodest prototype to use char * instead of unsigned char *. Perform the unsigned char cast inside memtodest instead.
* [EXPAND] Added getpwhome as a wrapper for getpwnamHerbert Xu2005-10-29
| | | | | klibc doesn't have and doesn't need getpwnam. This change creates getpwhome which always returns NULL if getpwnam doesn't exist.
* Copyright/licence updates and remove all traces of sys/cdefs.hHerbert Xu2005-10-29
| | | | | | | | | | | This change updates the BSD licence to the three-clause version since NetBSD has already done so. This makes dash GPL-compatible. It also adds Christos Zoulas (NetBSD ash maintainer) to the COPYING file. I've added "copyright by Herbert Xu" to most files. Finally all CVS IDs and inclusion of sys/cdefs.h have been removed. The latter is needed for support of klibc.
