* Error -> Defect for defects
The distinction between Error and Defect is subjective,
context-dependent and somewhat arbitrary, so when looking at an
exception, it's hard to guess what it is - this happens often when
looking at a `raises` list _without_ opening the corresponding
definition and digging through layers of inheritance.
With the help of a little consistency in naming, it's at least possible
to start disentangling the two error types and the standard lib can set
a good example here.
* removed from `compiler`:
* lists (deprecated 2 years ago)
* removed from `lib` (all deprecated 3 years ago):
* ssl
* matchers
* httpserver
* removed from `lib/deprecated`:
* unsigned
* actors (and three accompanying tests)
* parseurl
* moved to `lib/deprecated`:
* securehash (the reason for not directly removing - it was deprecated (only) one year ago)
* Give error when case has an else branch even though all cases are already covered.
* Don't check for invalid else for type tyFloat..tyFloat128, tyString, tyError
* Remove unnecessary else in unittest.nim
* Fix sockets.nim
* posix_other: Haiku now has spawn.h
This is added per https://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/13446
* posix_other: Add Haiku specific Dirent members
* cpuinfo: Add an implementation for Haiku
* distros: Add basic Haiku support
* encodings: update Haiku support
* fenv, math: Haiku now provides libm
* times: Add Haiku struct members
* ansi_c, osalloc: Add Haiku constants
* threads: Add Haiku support
* testament: Haiku uses LIBRARY_PATH
* nim.cfg: Update Haiku support
libnetwork should only be linked if network functions are used
* threads: Haiku does not support -pthread switch
* tworkingdir: Haiku's env is in /bin
* posix_other: add SIGKILLTHR for Haiku
* sockets: link with libnetwork on Haiku
* coro: correct ucontext.h location
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009696699/basedefs/ucontext.h.html
* coro: ucontext backend is not available on Haiku
Haiku doesn't provide the <ucontext.h> header, as it was removed from POSIX
* coro: fix setjmp backend
The compiler does not allow statements after a noreturn function
* nativesockets: Haiku doesn't support AI_V4MAPPED
* system: hostOS can contains "haiku"
* os: add support for Haiku's packagefs
packagefs is read-only, but there are writable holes to the underlying
file system as well
* os: update constant for Haiku
* refactor posix.nim
* types move to separate files for platform-specifc and generic
("other')
* consts move to separate files that get autogenerated by detect.nim
* proc's stay where they are for now, though in a second stage might
move as well
* fix missing when
This change was done to avoid confusion with TCP/IP raw sockets. Native sockets
module represents handling native system low level socket API in general and is
not just limited anyhow to TCP/IP raw sockets.
A stub lib/deprecated/pure/rawsockets.nim module has been added as
compatibility layer for old code using rawsockets, so this change will not
break existing code.
