fish will react to certain variable modifications, such as "TZ." Only do
this if the main stack is modified. This has no effect now because there
is always a single stack, but will become important when concurrent
execution is supported.
PATH and CDPATH have special behavior around empty elements. Express this
directly in env_stack_t::set rather than via variable dispatch; this is
cleaner.
Prior to this fix, fish would invalidate the exported variable list
whenever an exported variable changes. However we soon will not have a
single "exported variable list." If a global variable changes, it is
infeasible to find all exported variable lists and invalidate them.
Switch to a new model where we store a list of generation counts. Every
time an exported variable changes, the node gets a new generation. If the
current generation list does not match the cached one, then we know that
our exported variable list is stale.
This makes the following changes:
1. Events in background threads are executed in those threads, instead of
being silently dropped
2. Blocked events are now per-parser instead of global
3. Events are posted in builtin_set instead of within the environment stack
The last one means that we no longer support event handlers for implicit
sets like (example) argv. Instead only the `set` builtin (and also `cd`)
post variable-change events.
Events from universal variable changes are still not fully rationalized.
Prior to this fix, a function_block stored a process_t, which was only used
when printing backtraces. Switch this to an array of arguments, and make
various other cleanups around null terminated argument arrays.
This runs build_tools/style.fish, which runs clang-format on C++, fish_indent on fish and (new) black on python.
If anything is wrong with the formatting, we should fix the tools, but automated formatting is worth it.
This was a sort of side channel that was only used to propagate redraws
after universal variable changes. We can eliminate it and handle these
more directly.
env_scoped_t lives between environment_t and env_stack_t.
It represents the read-only logic of env_stack_t and will be used to back
the new environment snapshot implementation.
This new file is supposed to encapsulate all of the logic around
reacting to variable changes, as opposed to the environment core.
This is to help break up the env.cpp monolith.
This switches env_var_t to be an immutable value type, and stores its
contents via a shared_ptr. This eliminates string copying when fetching
env_var_t values.
For some reason, we have two places where a variable can be read-only:
- By key in env.cpp:is_read_only(), which is checked via set*
- By flag on the actual env_var_t, which is checked e.g. in
parse_execution
The latter didn't happen for non-electric variables like hostname,
because they used the default constructor, because they were
constructed via operator[] (or some such C++-iness).
This caused for-loops to crash on an assert if they used a
non-electric read-only var like $hostname or $SHLVL.
Instead, we explicitly set the flag.
We might want to remove one of the two read-only checks, or something?
Fixes#5548.
This requires threading environment_t through many places, such as completions
and history. We introduce null_environment_t for when the environment isn't
important.
This switches quoted expansion like "$foo" to use foo's delimiter instead of
space. The delimiter is space for normal variables and colonf or path variables.
Expansions like "$PATH" will now expand using ':'.
This commit begins to bake in a notion of path-style variables.
Prior to this fix, fish would export arrays as ASCII record separator
delimited, except for a whitelist (PATH, CDPATH, MANPATH). This is
surprising and awkward for other programs to deal with, and there's no way
to get similar behavior for other variables like GOPATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
This commit does the following:
1. Exports all arrays as colon delimited strings, instead of RS.
2. Introduces a notion of "path variable." A path variable will be
"colon-delimited" which means it gets colon-separated in quoted expansion,
and automatically splits on colons. In this commit we only do the exporting
part.
Colons are not escaped in exporting; this is deliberate to support uses
like
`set -x PYTHONPATH "/foo:/bar"`
which ought to work (and already do, we don't want to make a compat break
here).
This switches fish to a "virtual" PWD, where it no longer uses getcwd to
discover its PWD but instead synthesizes it based on normalizing cd against
the $PWD variable.
Both pwd and $PWD contain the virtual path. pwd is taught about -P to
return the physical path, and -L the logical path (which is the default).
Fixes#3350
