The idea is that it should be possible to pass any additional params for
experimentation without need to patch sources (and without need to deviate
from or repeat baseline options).
Some people want to enable even more warnings. Let them do it without putting
burden on everyone. Some people vice versa think that current settings should
be relaxed. In this regard, -Werror is the most problematic, it disallows to
use #warning directive, and disallows to pass configuration settings on make
command lines. Again, until decided how to deal with these globally, allow to
work around these problems locally.
there are special tweaks and paths to be considered. Just provide some
defaults, in case the values are undefined.
- py-version.sh does not need any bash specific features.
- Use libdl only on Linux for now. FreeBSD provides dl*() calls from libc.
This reverts commit 6e76f7bc90.
This patch tries to workaround a previous clang workaround. Instead of going
into workaround of workaround spiral, the original workaround should be tamed.
Without this fix, I get the following error:
CC gccollect.c
gccollect.c: In function ‘gc_helper_get_regs’:
gccollect.c:63:1: error: bp cannot be used in asm here
stat() is bad function to use using FFI, because its ABI is largely private.
To start with, Glibc .so doesn't even have "stat" symbol. Then, layout of
struct stat is too implementation-dependent. So, introduce _os to deal
with stat() and other similar cases.
The autogenerated header files have been moved about, and an extra
include dir has been added, which means you can give a custom
BUILD=newbuilddir option to make, and everything "just works"
Also tidied up the way the different Makefiles build their include-
directory flags
In conjunction with #504 this allows you to do things like:
```shell
make -C unix clean && make -C unix test CC=gcc-4.7
```
all from the top-level micropython directory :-)
Something similar could probably be done for windows/Makefile too, but I don't have a cygwin setup to test with.
Foreign Function Interface module allows to load native dynamic libraries,
call functions and access variables in them. This makes possible to write
interface modules in pure Python.
This module provides thin wrapper around libffi. ctypes compatibility might
be possible to implement on top of this module (though ctypes allow to call
functions without prototypes, which is not supported by libffi (i.e.
implementation would be inefficient))).
