libexpr: Use int64_t for NixInt
Using a 64bit integer on 32bit systems will come with a bit of a
performance overhead, but given that Nix doesn't use a lot of integers
compared to other types, I think the overhead is negligible also
considering that 32bit systems are in decline.

The biggest advantage however is that when we use a consistent integer
size across all platforms it's less likely that we miss things that we
break due to that. One example would be:

https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/44233

On Hydra it will evaluate, because the evaluator runs on a 64bit
machine, but when evaluating the same on a 32bit machine it will fail,
so using 64bit integers should make that consistent.

While the change of the type in value.hh is rather easy to do, we have a
few more options available for doing the conversion in the lexer:

  * Via an #ifdef on the architecture and using strtol() or strtoll()
    accordingly depending on which architecture we are. For the #ifdef
    we would need another AX_COMPILE_CHECK_SIZEOF in configure.ac.
  * Using istringstream, which would involve copying the value.
  * As we're already using boost, lexical_cast might be a good idea.

Spoiler: I went for the latter, first of all because lexical_cast does
have an overload for const char* and second of all, because it doesn't
involve copying around the input string. Also, because istringstream
seems to come with a bigger overhead than boost::lexical_cast:

https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/release/doc/html/boost_lexical_cast/performance.html

The first method (still using strtol/strtoll) also wasn't something I
pursued further, because it is also locale-aware which I doubt is what
we want, given that the regex for int is [0-9]+.

Tuomas Tynkkynen a0e38c16bc libexpr: Recognize newline in more places in lexer
Flex's regexes have an annoying feature: the dot matches everything
except a newline. This causes problems for expressions like:

"${0}\
"

where the backslash-newline combination matches this rule instead of the
intended one mentioned in the comment:

    <STRING>\$|\\|\$\\ {
                    /* This can only occur when we reach EOF, otherwise the above
                    (...|\$[^\{\"\\]|\\.|\$\\.)+ would have triggered.
                    This is technically invalid, but we leave the problem to the
                    parser who fails with exact location. */
                    return STR;
                }
However, the parser actually accepts the resulting token sequence
('"' DOLLAR_CURLY 0 '}' STR '"'), which is a problem because the lexer
rule didn't assign anything to yylval. Ultimately this leads to a crash
when dereferencing a NULL pointer in ExprConcatStrings::bindVars().

The fix does change the syntax of the language in some corner cases
but I think it's only turning previously invalid (or crashing) syntax
to valid syntax. E.g.

"a\
b"

and

''a''\
b''

were previously syntax errors but now both result in "a\nb".

Guillaume Maudoux a143014d73 lexer: remove catch-all rules hiding real errors
With catch-all rules, we hide potential errors.
It turns out that a4744254 made one cath-all useless. Flex detected that
is was impossible to reach.
The other is more subtle, as it can only trigger on unfinished escapes
in unfinished strings, which only occurs at EOF.

Eelco Dolstra 95c74eae26 Allow dashes in identifiers
In Nixpkgs, the attribute in all-packages.nix corresponding to a
package is usually equal to the package name.  However, this doesn't
work if the package contains a dash, which is fairly common.  The
convention is to replace the dash with an underscore (e.g. "dbus-lib"
becomes "dbus_glib"), but that's annoying.  So now dashes are valid in
variable / attribute names, allowing you to write:

  dbus-glib = callPackage ../development/libraries/dbus-glib { };

and

  buildInputs = [ dbus-glib ];

Since we don't have a negation or subtraction operation in Nix, this
is unambiguous.

Eelco Dolstra 1ecc97b6bd * Add a Nix expression search path feature. Paths between angle
brackets, e.g.

    import <nixpkgs/pkgs/lib>

  are resolved by looking them up relative to the elements listed in
  the search path.  This allows us to get rid of hacks like

    import "${builtins.getEnv "NIXPKGS_ALL"}/pkgs/lib"

  The search path can be specified through the ‘-I’ command-line flag
  and through the colon-separated ‘NIX_PATH’ environment variable,
  e.g.,

    $ nix-build -I /etc/nixos ...

  If a file is not found in the search path, an error message is
  lazily thrown.

  For instance, an expression like

    stdenv.lib.attrByPath ["features" "ckSched"] false args

  can now be written as

    args.features.ckSched or false

Eelco Dolstra ed711f73bc * Don't use ATerms to represent integers in the lexer. 2010-04-12 10:38:18 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 9279174dde * Added an experimental feature suggested by Andres: ellipses ("...")
in attribute set pattern matches.  This allows defining a function
  that takes *at least* the listed attributes, while ignoring
  additional attributes.  For instance,

    {stdenv, fetchurl, fuse, ...}:
    
    stdenv.mkDerivation {
      ...
    };
    
  defines a function that requires an attribute set that contains the 
  specified attributes but ignores others.  The main advantage is that
  we can then write in all-packages.nix

    aefs = import ../bla/aefs pkgs;

  instead of

    aefs = import ../bla/aefs {
      inherit stdenv fetchurl fuse;
    };

  This saves a lot of typing (not to mention not having to update
  all-packages.nix with purely mechanical changes).  It saves as much
  typing as the "args: with args;" style, but has the advantage that
  the function arguments are properly declared (not implicit in what
  the body of the "with" uses).
