The changes to cl argument parsing are not backwards compatible, and
cause inconvenience when writing macros (e.g., instead of doing '&aux
,@auxargs', some more complicated conditionals would be required).
The `cl-defstruct' macro makes use of this convenience when defining
empty structs (Bug#29728).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl--transform-lambda):
(cl--do-&aux, cl--do-arglist): Undo strict checking of &rest, &key,
and &aux.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs-tests.el (cl-macs-bad-arglist): Remove
test.
* etc/NEWS: Explain that '&optional' not followed by a variable is now
an error.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl--transform-lambda, cl--do-&aux)
(cl--do-arglist): Also reject '&optional', '&rest', or '&aux' not
followed by a variable for consistency.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs-tests.el (cl-macs-bad-arglist): New
test.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl-destructuring-bind): Use
cl-macro-list1 instead of cl-macro-list in Edebug spec.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/edebug.el (edebug-after-dotted-spec): Delete
unused variable.
(edebug-dotted-spec): Add docstring.
(edebug-match-specs): Allow &optional and &rest specs to
match nothing at the tail of a dotted form. Handle matches of
dotted form tails which return non-lists.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/edebug-tests.el (edebug-tests-dotted-forms):
New test.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/edebug-resources/edebug-test-code.el:
(edebug-test-code-use-destructuring-bind): New function.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el: Modify the Edebug spec for
`cl-lambda-list' to support destructuring argument lists.
(cl-defun, cl-defmacro): Fix spelling errors in docstrings.
* lisp/textmodes/rst.el: Remove alternate version of Edebug
specs for `cl-lambda-list' and `cl-type-spec'.
Since (:documentation FORM) can be used to create a docstring
when lexical-binding is on, allow for that possibility in Edebug
specs (bug#24773).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/edebug.el: Define an Edebug spec for docstrings
called lambda-doc and modify the Edebug specs for defun and
defmacro to use it.
(edebug-instrument-function): Check for generic functions first,
to fix bug where edebug-step-in didn't work on methods now that
cl-defgeneric has an Edebug spec.
* lisp/subr.el (lambda): Modify Edebug spec to use lambda-doc.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-generic.el (cl-defgeneric): Add Edebug spec
(bug#27747).
(cl-defmethod): Use lambda-doc in Edebug spec.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el: Modify Edebug spec for
cl-declarations-or-string to use lambda-doc, and modify Edebug
spec for cl-lambda-expr to use cl-declarations-or-string.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/pcase.el (pcase-lambda): Modify Edebug spec to
use lambda-doc, as well as &define and def-body which are
necessary for using Edebug on code wrapped by lambda.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/generator.el (iter-defun, iter-lambda): Add
Edebug specs.
Most of this change is to boilerplate commentary such as license URLs.
This change was prompted by ftp://ftp.gnu.org's going-away party,
planned for November. Change these FTP URLs to https://ftp.gnu.org
instead. Make similar changes for URLs to other organizations moving
away from FTP. Also, change HTTP to HTTPS for URLs to gnu.org and
fsf.org when this works, as this will further help defend against
man-in-the-middle attacks (for this part I omitted the MS-DOS and
MS-Windows sources and the test tarballs to keep the workload down).
HTTPS is not fully working to lists.gnu.org so I left those URLs alone
for now.
'cl-gensym' was simply moved here, but let us take an opportunity to
shed some historical baggage.
* lisp/subr.el (gensym): Remove special treatment of PREFIX as a
number. Use "g" as prefix to differentiate from cl-gensym defaults.
* doc/lispref/symbols.texi (Creating Symbols): Update accordingly.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl--gensym-counter, cl-gensym): Restore.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl--sm-macroexpand): Remove.
(cl-symbol-macrolet): Instead of adding each binding directly into the
main environment with a special key format, put all symbol macro
bindings into a single entry in the main environment under
`:cl-symbol-macros'.
(cl--sm-macroexpand): Look up symbol bindings in the
`:cl-symbol-macros' entry of the environment.
Revert 0d112c00ba (to fix bug#26325)
and use a different fix for bug#26068.
(cl--symbol-macro-key): New function.
(cl--sm-macroexpand, cl-symbol-macrolet): Use it instead of `symbol-name`.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-lib-tests.el (cl-lib-symbol-macrolet):
Failure is not expected any more.
Since copy-sequence seems to be needed anyway for records, have it
work on records, and remove copy-record as being superfluous.
* doc/lispref/records.texi (Records, Record Functions):
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl-defstruct):
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio.el (make-instance, clone):
* test/src/alloc-tests.el (record-3):
Use copy-sequence, not copy-record, to copy records.
* doc/lispref/sequences.texi (Sequence Functions)
(Array Functions): Document that aref and copy-sequence
work on records.
* etc/NEWS: Omit copy-record.
* src/alloc.c (Fcopy_record): Remove.
* src/data.c (Faref): Document that arg can be a record.
* src/fns.c (Fcopy_sequence): Copy records, too.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-lib.el (cl--old-struct-type-of): New function.
(cl-old-struct-compat-mode): New minor mode.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl-defstruct): Pass `record' to
cl-struct-define to signal use of record objects.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-preloaded.el (cl--struct-get-class,
cl-struct-define): Enable legacy defstruct compatibility.
* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-lib-tests.el (cl-lib-old-struct,
old-struct): New tests.
* doc/lispref/elisp.texi, doc/lispref/records.texi: Document
`old-struct-compat'.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-extra.el (cl--describe-class)
(cl--describe-class-slots): Use the new `type-of'.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-generic.el (cl--generic-struct-tag): Use type-of.
(cl--generic-struct-specializers): Adjust to new tag.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl-defstruct): When type is nil, use records.
Use the type symbol as the tag. Use copy-record to copy structs.
(cl--defstruct-predicate): New function.
(cl--pcase-mutually-exclusive-p): Use it.
(cl-struct-sequence-type): Can now return `record'.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-preloaded.el (cl--make-slot-desc): Adjust ad-hoc
code to new format.
(cl--struct-register-child): Work with records.

* test/lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-lib-tests.el (cl-lib-defstruct-record):
New test.
* doc/lispref/records.texi, doc/misc/cl.texi: Update for records.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl-defstruct): Don't signal an error but
emit a warning for those coders who forgot to put a default value in
their slot.

The accessor functions use the predicate function, which causes problems
when reloading after unload-feature: the compiler-macro property is
still present on the predicate symbol, and the compiler fails to find
the definition when trying to inline it into the accessor
function (Bug#25088).
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl-defstruct): Move predicate definition
before field accessor definitions.
Problem reported by Artur Malabarba in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2015-11/msg01513.html
Most of these fixes are to documentation; many involve fixing
longstanding quoting glitches that are independent of the
recent substitute-command-keys changes. The changes to code are:
* lisp/cedet/mode-local.el (mode-local-augment-function-help)
(describe-mode-local-overload):
Substitute docstrings before displaying them.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl--transform-lambda):
Quote the generated docstring for later substitution.
* lisp/help-fns.el (describe-symbol-backends): Move to help-mode.el.
(describe-symbol): Improve the selection of default.
* lisp/help-mode.el: Require cl-lib.
(describe-symbol-backends): Move from help-fns.el.
(help-make-xrefs): Use it.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-extra.el (describe-symbol-backends): Add entry
for types.
(cl--typedef-regexp): New const.
(find-function-regexp-alist): Add entry for types.
(cl-help-type, cl-type-definition): New buttons.
(cl-find-class): New function.
(cl-describe-type): New command.
(cl--describe-class, cl--describe-class-slot)
(cl--describe-class-slots): New functions, moved from eieio-opt.el.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-generic.el (cl--generic-method-documentation)
(cl--generic-all-functions, cl--generic-specializers-apply-to-type-p):
New functions. Moved from eieio-opt.el.
(cl--generic-class-parents): New function, extracted from
cl--generic-struct-specializers.
(cl--generic-struct-specializers): Use it.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl-defstruct): Use pcase-dolist.
Improve constructor's docstrings.
(cl-struct-unknown-slot): New error.
(cl-struct-slot-offset): Use it.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-preloaded.el (cl-struct-define): Record the type
definition in current-load-list.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-core.el (eieio--known-slot-names): New var.
(eieio--add-new-slot): Set it.
(eieio-defclass-internal): Use new name for current-load-list.
(eieio-oref): Add compiler-macro to warn about unknown slots.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio.el (defclass): Update eieio--known-slot-names
as compile-time as well. Improve constructor docstrings.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio-opt.el (eieio-help-class)
(eieio--help-print-slot, eieio-help-class-slots): Move to cl-extra.el.
(eieio-class-def): Remove button.
(eieio-help-constructor): Use new name for load-history element.
(eieio--specializers-apply-to-class-p, eieio-all-generic-functions)
(eieio-method-documentation): Move to cl-generic.el.
(eieio-display-method-list): Use new names.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/lisp-mode.el (lisp-imenu-generic-expression):
Add "define-linline".
(lisp-fdefs): Remove "defsubst".
(el-fdefs): Add "defsubst", "cl-defsubst", and "define-linline".
* lisp/emacs-lisp/macroexp.el (macroexp--warned): New var.
(macroexp--warn-and-return): Use it to avoid inf-loops.
Add `compile-only' argument.
Previously it was initialized to a random value, which made it
harder to reproduce earlier Emacs runs. The need for a random
value went away when Emacs introduced and used the #: syntax for
uninterned symbols (Bug#20862).
* doc/misc/cl.texi (Creating Symbols, Common Lisp Compatibility):
Document that cl--gensym-counter now starts with 0.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-lib.el (cl--gensym-counter): Remove.
(cl--random-time): Move to near only remaining use.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl--gensym-counter): Initialize to 0.
Adding a string after a constructor's argument list will use
that string as the constructor function docstring. If this string
is absent but the struct itself was given a docstring, use that as
the constructor's docstring.
Fixes (bug#17284).
