Adds method call support for all functions in the patch, but it cannot
be fully ported due to missing tests for:
- getcwd(): requires chdir() and Test_chdir_func() from v8.1.1291.
Note that the method call tests for getreg() and getregtype() were
removed in v8.2.1547, which has already been ported, but doesn't seem to
have been replaced with a new test...
This patch also makes getchangelist()'s argument optional (defaults to
the current buffer).
eval.txt includes a typo for gettabwinvar(), which is fixed in
v8.1.1952.
- Return VimL errors instead of generic errors for:
- nvim_call_function
- nvim_call_dict_function
- Fix tests which were silently broken before this change.
This violates #6150 where we agreed not to translate API errors. But
that can be fixed later.
In Windows Lua's os.tmpname() returns relative paths starting with \s,
prepend them with $TEMP to generate a valid path.
In OS X os.tmpname() returns paths in '/tmp' but they should be in
'/private/tmp'. We cannot use os_name() for platform detection because
some tests use tempname() before nvim is spawned, instead use one of the
following:
1. Set SYSTEM_NAME environment variable before calling the tests, it
is set from CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME(i.e. uname -s or 'Windows')
2. Call uname -s
3. Assume windows
It is otherwise impossible to determine which test failed sanitizer/valgrind
check. test/functional/helpers.lua module return was changed so that tests which
do not provide after_each function to get new check will automatically fail.
