Problem: Items in a list given to :const can still be modified.
Solution: Work like ":lockvar! name" but don't lock referenced items.
Make locking a blob work.
021bda5671
Problem: Incorrect error messages for functions that now take a Blob
argument.
Solution: Adjust the error messages. (Dominique Pelle, closesvim/vim#3846)
0d17f0d1c0
Problem: Not enough documentation for Blobs.
Solution: Add a section about Blobs.
d89682477c
Include doc changes for empty() from v7.4.1274.
Include some minor typo fixes.
Strings that previously decoded into a msgpack special for representing
BINs with NULs now convert to Blobs. It shouldn't be possible to decode
into this special anymore after this change?
Notably, Lua strings with NULs now convert to Blobs when passed to VimL.
Problem: Cannot handle binary data.
Solution: Add the Blob type. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto, closesvim/vim#3638)
6e5ea8d2a9
Nvim-specific Blob conversions are implemented in future commits.
Refactor write_blob() to use a FileDescriptor, as f_writefile() was
refactored to use one (does not apply to read_blob()).
Use var_check_lock() in f_add() for Blobs from v8.1.0897.
Add a modeline to test_blob.vim and fix some doc typos.
Include if_perl.txt's VIM::Blob() documentation. Interestingly, this
function already worked before this port, as it just returns a Blob
string literal, not an actual Blob object.
N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:8.1.0741: viminfo with Blob is not tested
Problem: Viminfo with Blob is not tested.
Solution: Extend the viminfo test. Fix reading a blob. Fixed storing a
special variable value.
8c8b8bb56c
vim-patch:8.1.1022: may use NULL pointer when out of memory
Problem: May use NULL pointer when out of memory. (Coverity)
Solution: Check for blob_alloc() returning NULL.
e142a9467a
Problem: Cannot use octal numbers in scriptversion 4.
Solution: Add the "0o" notation. (Ken Takata, closesvim/vim#5304)
c17e66c5c0
:scriptversion is N/A.
Cherry-pick latest str2nr() doc changes from v8.1.2035.
Cherry-pick various mentions of the 0o prefix from:
- v8.2.2324
- 2346a63784
- 11e3c5ba82
- 82be4849ee
Patch used ascii_isbdigit() by mistake, which was fixed in v8.2.2309.
Make STR2NR_OOCT work the same as STR2NR_OCT when forcing.
In Vim, STR2NR_FORCE | STR2NR_OOCT isn't handled, and doesn't actually
force anything. Rather than abort(), make it work as STR2NR_OCT.
This means STR2NR_FORCE | STR2NR_OCT works the same as
STR2NR_FORCE | STR2NR_OOCT and STR2NR_FORCE | STR2NR_OCT | STR2NR_OOCT.
Problem: Recognizing octal numbers is confusing.
Solution: Introduce scriptversion 4: do not use octal and allow for single
quote inside numbers.
60a8de28d1
:scriptversion is N/A.
Cherry-pick Test_readfile_binary() from v8.1.0742.
Note that this patch was missing vim_str2nr() changes, and so fails the
tests; this was fixed in v8.1.2036.
Problem: Cannot enforce a Vim script style.
Solution: Add the :scriptversion command. (closesvim/vim#3857)
558ca4ae55
:scriptversion is N/A, but ":let ..=" is relevant.
N/A patches for version.c
vim-patch:8.1.1188: not all Vim variables require the v: prefix
Problem: Not all Vim variables require the v: prefix.
Solution: When scriptversion is 3 all Vim variables can only be used with
the v: prefix. (Ken Takata, closesvim/vim#4274)
d2e716e6df
vim-patch:8.1.1190: has('vimscript-3') does not work
Problem: has('vimscript-3') does not work.
Solution: Add "vimscript-3" to the list of features.
93a4879c20
vim-patch:8.1.2038: has('vimscript-4') is always 0
Problem: has('vimscript-4') is always 0.
Solution: Add "vimscript-4" to the feature table. (Naruhiko Nishino,
closesvim/vim#4941)
af91438338
In particular:
- jobwait: omitting {timeout} arg is the same as -1.
- sockconnect: omitting {opts} arg is the same as {}.
- jobsend: obsoleted by chansend; don't mention it in job_control.txt.
- menu_get: add to |functions| table.
[skip ci]
Problem: More functions can be used as methods.
Solution: Make a few more functions usable as a method.
64b4d73524
Note that the old-style version of Test_byteidx() was already translated
to a Lua test in 069_multibyte_formatting_spec.lua. Keep both versions,
using Test_byteidx() to mainly test the method call syntax for byteidx()
and byteidxcomp().
Problem: More functions can be used as methods.
Solution: Make various functions usable as a method.
073e4b92e6
test_popup.vim already has the changes from this patch (they're N/A
anyway).
Problem: More functions can be used as methods.
Solution: Make float functions usable as a method.
93cf85f9ef
Fix atan2() doc typo (patch referred to it as atan()).
Adjust Test_fmod() method test to expect "str2float('nan')".
Problem: Cannot use a lambda as a method.
Solution: Implement ->{lambda}(). (closesvim/vim#4768)
22a0c0c4ec
Add an additional lua_funcname argument to call_func_rettv() to maintain
support for v:lua.
A memory leak was introduced with this patch that was fixed in
v8.1.2107.
Problem: More functions can be used as a method.
Solution: Add append(), appendbufline(), assert_equal(), etc.
Also add the :eval command.
25e42231d3
:eval is already ported.
Problem: All builtin functions are global.
Solution: Add the method call operator ->. Implemented for a limited number
of functions.

- Note that to *exactly* port hunk @@ -7376,18 +7444,19 from
handle_subscript(), we need the :scriptversion patches (I have an open
PR for those, but this patch works fine without them anyway).
- Port call_internal_func() from v7.4.2058.
- Adjust some error messages in tests, as they rely on the Blob patches.
- Add a modeline to test_method.vim.
Ignore the global_functions and base_method tables and prefer the
current GPerf implementation. Instead, add an extra base_arg field to
VimLFuncDef that holds the number of the argument to use as the base
(1-indexed, so that 0 may be used to refer to functions that cannot be
used as methods).
This also means we support using any argument as a base from the get-go,
rather than just the first (Vim includes this ability in future patches,
however).
To mark a function as usable as a method, use the "base" key as
described in eval.lua.
Problem: win_gettype() does not recognize a quickfix window.
Solution: Add "quickfix" and "loclist". (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#8676)
28d8421bfb
Problem: Location list only has the start position.
Solution: Make it possible to add an end position. (Shane-XB-Qian,

N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:8.2.3002: Vim doesn't abort on a fatal Tcl error
Problem: Vim doesn't abort on a fatal Tcl error.
Solution: Change emsg() to iemsg(). (Dominique Pellé, closesvim/vim#8383)
affd0bc626
vim-patch:8.2.3030: Coverity reports a memory leak
Problem: Coverity reports a memory leak.
Solution: Fix the leak and a few typos. (Dominique Pellé, closesvim/vim#8418)
cb54bc6562
Patch v8.2.3022 is mostly N/A but cannot be included here
because of new feature check for "has()".
vim-patch:8.2.3032: build problems with MSVC, other crypt issues with libsodium
Problem: Build problems with MSVC, other crypt issues with libsodium.
Solution: Adjust MSVC makefile. Disable swap file only when 'key' is set.
Adjust error message used when key is wrong. Fix Coverity issues.
(Christian Brabandt, closesvim/vim#8420, closesvim/vim#8411)

vim-patch:8.2.3044: Amiga MorphOS and AROS: process ID is not valid
Problem: Amiga MorphOS and AROS: process ID is not valid.
Solution: Use FindTask to return something which is unique to all processes.
(Ola Söder, closesvim/vim#8444)
3a62b14077
vim-patch:8.2.3046: Amiga MorphOS: Term mode is set using DOS packets
Problem: Amiga MorphOS: Term mode is set using DOS packets.
Solution: Use the same way of setting term mdoe on all next gen Amiga-like
systems. (Ola Söder, closesvim/vim#8445)
b420ac9d20
Problem: Using getchar() in Vim9 script is problematic.
Solution: Add getcharstr(). (closesvim/vim#8343)
3a7503c34c
Cherry-pick Test_getchar() changes from patch v8.1.2304
to sync with upstream.
Port f_getcharstr() to src/nvim/eval/funcs.c, not src/nvim/getchar.c.
Patch v8.1.2042 is not ported yet.
Some programs behave differently when they detect that stdin is being
piped. This can be problematic when these programs are used with the job
control API where stdin is attached, but not typically used. It is
possible to run the job using a PTY which circumvents this problem, but
that includes a lot of overhead when simply closing the stdin pipe would
suffice.
To enable this behavior, add a new parameter to the jobstart options
dict called "stdin" with two valid values: "pipe" (the default)
implements the existing behavior of opening a channel for stdin and
"null" which disconnects stdin (or, if you prefer, connects it to
/dev/null). This is extensible so that other modes can be added in the
future.
Problem: Cannot use "z=" when 'spell' is off.
Solution: Make "z=" work even when 'spell' is off. (Christian Brabandt,
Gary Johnson, closesvim/vim#6227)
152e79e94b
Problem: It is not possible to customize the quickfix window contents.
Solution: Add 'quickfixtextfunc'. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#5465)
