annotate INSTALL-CVS @ 53341:d4e6a050c9b1

Bugfix festival. lib-src/emacsclient.c (main_argc, main_argv): New variables. (main): Initialize them. (fail): Use them. (window_change, copy_from_to): Don't kill if emacs_pid is zero. (pty_conversation): Watch the command socket, too. Read emacs_pid here. Emacs and emacsclient could deadlock if Emacs tried to do a reset_sys_modes before sending its pid. lisp/server.el: Automatically delete the client frame when done editing. (server-frames): New variable. (server-process-filter, server-sentinel, server-buffer-done): Use it. (server-process-filter): Do a redisplay before evaluating other parameters. (Prevents "emacsclient -h -e '(delete-frame)'" from messing up the system. src/dispextern.h: Update prototypes. src/dispnew.c (window_change_signal): Do nothing if !term_initted. (init_display): Set the frame size from the tty data after term_init. src/emacs.c (main): Make sure things that init_sys_modes needs are initialized before init_display (which calls init_sys_modes now). (sort_args): Use xfree, not free. (shut_down_emacs) [!EMACS_HAVE_TTY_PGRP]: Use reset_all_sys_modes instead of reset_sys_modes. src/frame.c (make_terminal_frame): Sigh. Move terminal initialization back to the middle of frame setup. Handle errors by making sure that the delete_tty() called from term_init() will see and delete this frame. (Fdelete_frame): Kill the frame before calling delete_tty(). Fix condition for tty deletion. src/keyboard.c (Fset_input_mode): Use reset_sys_modes on the current terminal only. src/lisp.h: Remove duplicate prototypes. src/msdos.c (croak): use reset_all_sys_modes(). src/sysdeps.c (init_baud_rate): Added tty parameter, use it instead of CURTTY. (child_setup_tty): Reset sigio on stdin, not CURTTY(). (reset_sigio): Added fd parameter, put explicit fcntl there. (request_sigio, unrequest_sigio)[FASYNC]: Simply block/unblock the SIGIO signal, don't touch the file params. There are multiple ttys now, and we can't disable the SIGIO from emacsclient. (get_tty_size)[VMS]: Use tty_out instead of CURTTY(). (reset_sys_modes): Don't call cursor_to, clear_end_of_line; call cmgoto and tty_clear_end_of_line instead. The frame may already be dead. Updated reset_sigio call. src/term.c (clear_and_of_line): Separate tty-dependent stuff to tty_clear_end_of_line() for reset_sys_modes. (tty_clear_end_of_line): New function. (term_init): Added frame parameter, don't use selected_frame. Set the frame's output_data.tty value (in case there is an error later). Set the frame size in Wcm, not in the frame. Only free the termcap buffer if there is a termcap-related error. Call init_sys_modes last, not first. (deleting_tty): New variable. (delete_tty): Use it for handling recursive calls. Free deleted tty, except its Wcm (there is still a dangling reference somewhere). git-archimport-id: [e-mail]--2004/emacs--multi-tty--0--patch-19

	      Building and Installing Emacs from CVS

Some of the files that are included in the Emacs tarball, such as
byte-compiled Lisp files, are not stored in the CVS repository.
Therefore, to build from CVS you must run "make bootstrap"
instead of just "make":

  $ ./configure
  $ make bootstrap

The bootstrap process makes sure all necessary files are rebuilt
before it builds the final Emacs binary.

Normally, it is not necessary to use "make bootstrap" after every CVS
update.  Unless there are problems, we suggest the following
procedure:

  $ ./configure
  $ make
  $ cd lisp
  $ make recompile EMACS=../src/emacs
  $ cd ..
  $ make

(If you want to install the Emacs binary, type "make install" instead
of "make" in the last command.)

Occasionally the file "lisp/loaddefs.el" will need be updated to reflect
new autoloaded functions.  If you see errors about undefined lisp
functions during compilation, that may be the reason.  Another symptom
may be an error saying that "loaddefs.el" could not be found; this is
due to a change in the way loaddefs.el was handled in CVS, and should
only happen once, for users that are updating old CVS trees.

To update loaddefs.el, do:

  $ cd lisp
  $ make autoloads EMACS=../src/emacs

If either of above procedures fails, try "make bootstrap".

Users of non-Posix systems (MS-Windows etc.) should run the
platform-specific configuration scripts (nt/configure.bat, config.bat,
etc.) before "make bootstrap" or "make"; the rest of the procedure is
applicable to those systems as well.

Questions, requests, and bug reports about the CVS versions of Emacs
should be sent to [e-mail] rather than gnu.emacs.help
or gnu.emacs.bug.  Ideally, use M-x report-emacs-bug RET which will
send it to the proper place.
