This is a temporary remedy for time_t transition to 64 bit on newer
Linux libc (musl >= 1.2.0, glibc >= 2.32).
In the future we might want to move away from libc, or figure out a way
to reliably detect the real size of C types at compile time, both of
which are difficult.
This commit indents the contents of a `code-block` in `httpclient.nim`
so that it displays correctly. The bug was introduced by 42a64245f8.
I did a quick search for other `code-block`s that are broken in the same
way, but the only other one I found (in `pegs.nim`) is not included in
the generated documentation.
Fix an issue reported on IRC: using encodings with --dynlibOverrideAll
result in duplicated iconv definitions, causing compile errors.
This commit remove the `var` wrapper of iconv and go all out on
pointers, as it should due to how the API accepts nil. Also corrected
the API to resemble iconv(3p).
* fix#14142: no more clash with: import os + use of existsDir/dirExists/existsFile/fileExists/findExe in config.nims
* remove a comment
* Revert "fixes the regression #12860 caused; hotfix"
This reverts commit 3d2459bdc0.
* Revert "Undefine `paramCount` & `paramStr` in nimscript.nim for *.nims (#12860)"
This reverts commit d38853c504.
* noNimScript => noWeirdTarget + noNimJs
* Unwind just the "pseudorandom probing" (whole hash-code-keyed variable
stride double hashing) part of recent sets & tables changes (which has
still been causing bugs over a month later (e.g., two days ago
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/13794) as well as still having
several "figure this out" implementation question comments in them (see
just diffs of this PR).
This topic has been discussed in many places:
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/13393https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/13418https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/13440https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/13794
Alternative/non-mandatory stronger integer hashes (or vice-versa opt-in
identity hashes) are a better solution that is more general (no illusion
of one hard-coded sequence solving all problems) while retaining the
virtues of linear probing such as cache obliviousness and age-less tables
under delete-heavy workloads (still untested after a month of this change).
The only real solution for truly adversarial keys is a hash keyed off of
data unobservable to attackers. That all fits better with a few families
of user-pluggable/define-switchable hashes which can be provided in a
separate PR more about `hashes.nim`.
This PR carefully preserves the better (but still hard coded!) probing
of the `intsets` and other recent fixes like `move` annotations, hash
order invariant tests, `intsets.missingOrExcl` fixing, and the move of
`rightSize` into `hashcommon.nim`.
* Fix `data.len` -> `dataLen` problem.
* Add neglected API call `find` to heapqueue.
* Add a changelog.md entry, `since` annotation and rename parameter to be
`heap` like all the other procs for consistency.
* Add missing import.
