* version 3.5.1v3.5.1Benoit Germain2013-02-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | * new lanes.h header and API call luaopen_lanes_embedded() for embedders * "lanes.core" is an acceptable library in the generator libs argument * library "*" wildcard also opens lanes.core * tweaked code for Xbox 360 build
* version 3.5.0Benoit Germain2013-01-301-6/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | * new: API lanes.require(), use it instead of regular require() for modules that export C functions you need to send over. * new: lanes no longer require 'lanes.core' by default in every created state. Use {required={"lanes.core"}} if you need to transfer lanes functions. * internal: because of the above, reworked the timer implementation to remove upvalue-dependency on lanes.core * new: API lanes.timer_lane, to be able to operate on timer lane if need be * improved: if a module is a full userdata, scan its metatable for function database population * improved: on_state_create can be a Lua function * changed: on_state_create is called after the base libraries are loaded * package[loaders|searchers] is no longer transfered as function naming depends on slot order * internal: changed separator from '.' to '/' in lookup databases to be able to distinguish search levels and dot coming from module names * added some mode debug spew * updated tests to reflect the above changes
* * More detailed DEBUG_SPEW logsBenoit Germain2013-01-281-19/+24
| | | | * A bit of code cosmetics
* version 3.4.4v3.4.4Benoit Germain2013-01-261-3/+1
| | | | | | | | * bugfix: take into account the fact that "coroutine" is no longer part of base library in Lua 5.2 * bugfix: if "bit32" was listed in the libraries, it wouldn't open (library list parsing failing on digits) * bugfix: Use luaL_requiref() to open standard libraries in Lua 5.2 as we should * bugfix: any Lua state created by Lanes reuses the allocator function of the originating state * bugfix: don't call on_state_create() while GC is suspended during lua state initialization
* version 3.4.3v3.4.3Benoit Germain2013-01-241-34/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | * raise an error if lane generator libs specification contains a lib more than once * bit32 is a valid lib name in the libs specification (silently ignored by the Lua 5.1 build) * improved lanes.nameof to search inside table- and userdata- metatables for an object's name * fixed an unwarranted error when trying to discover a function name upon a failed transfer * contents of package.[path,cpath,preload,loaders|searchers] are pulled *only once* inside keeper states at initialisation * Lua function upvalues equal to the global environment aren't copied by value, but bound to the destination's global environment especially useful for Lua 5.2 _ENV * fixed loading of base libraries that didn't create the global tables when built for Lua 5.2

* version 3.4.0Benoit Germain2012-09-261-17/+77
| | | | | | | | | | * new method linda:dump() that outputs the full contents of a linda as a table, also linked to __towatch for Decoda support * linda:receive() API change! * instead of [val, key], linda:receive( timeout, key) returns [key, val] * instead of [val, [...]], linda:receive( timeout, linda.batched key) returns [key, val[, ...]] this is to unify the return values of regular and batched mode, and to be able to tell when batched mode is interrupted by a lane cancellation * fixed Lua 5.2 build to take into account the "loaders"->"searchers" name change in 'package' module. * a bit of html cleanup and added some infos in the documentation regarding the Lanes internals

| | | | | * keeper internals implemented in C instead of Lua for better performances * fixed arguments checks in linda:limit() and linda:set()

* Yet another shutdown crash fixbenoit-germain2012-08-101-0/+4
| | | | Perform keeper desinit in two stages, in case the keeper state being closed contains a reference to a linda bound to a previously desinitialized keeper, causing it to be destroyed after its keeper state. (occurs only for applications using more than one keeper).
* fix possible crash at application shutdown when a race condition causes ↵Benoit Germain2012-08-101-15/+18

| | | | | | * lua51-lanes renamed lanes.core * keeper state microcode is no longer embedded inside lanes.core, but located and loaded with package.loaders[2] * changed rockspec build type from "make" to "builtin"
* * changed lanes.configure signature to receive a table instead of individual ↵Benoit Germain2012-02-181-11/+7

* * process exit change: close everything at GC when main state closes, not ↵Benoit Germain2011-11-051-27/+85
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | when atexit() handlers are processed * Lua 5.2-style module: * module() is no longer used to implement lanes.lua * a global "lanes" variable is no longer created when the module is required * the Lanes module table is returned instead * Lanes must be initialized before used: * the first occurence of 'require "lanes"' produces a minimal interface that only contains a configure() function * the remainder of the interface is made available once this function is called * subsequent calls to configure() do nothing * configure() controls the number of keeper states and the startup of timers * LuaJIT 2 compatibility * non-Lua functions are no longer copied by creating a C closure from a C pointer, but through 2-way lookup tables * this means that if a lane function body pulls non-Lua functions, the lane generator description must contain the list of libraries and modules that exports them * introduces a change in configuration .globals management: contents are copied *after* std libs are loaded * new .required configuration entry to list modules that must be require()'ed before lane body is transferred * lane:cancel() wakes up waiting lindas like what is done at lane shutdown
* * linda uses a fast FIFO implementation to speed up data exchangesBenoit Germain2011-04-181-6/+30
| | | | | | | | * new linda:count() method * new linda batched data read mode * proper key type check in all linda methods * fix setup-vc.cmd to support Visual Studio 2010 and Windows 7 64 bits * bugfix: release keeper state mutex at desinit
