Handle the case where none of getActualAttrPaths() actually exists,
in which case instead of returning an empty vector.
This fixes the case where the user misspells the attribute name in nix
search. Instead of getting no search results, now it shows an error with
suggestions.
Also remove InstallableFlake::getCursor() override since it's now
equivalent to the base class version.
Originally there was no `path-info.*`, then there was `path-info.hh`,
then there was `path-info.cc`, but only for new things. Moving this
stuff over makes everything consistent.
This should be a non-empty set, and so we don't want people doing this
by accident. We remove the zero-0 constructor with a little inheritance
trickery.
`DerivedPath::Built` and `DerivationGoal` were previously using a
regular set with the convention that the empty set means all outputs.
But it is easy to forget about this rule when processing those sets.
Using `OutputSpec` forces us to get it right.
It appears that on current macOS versions, our use of poll() to detect
client disconnects no longer works. As a workaround, poll() for
POLLRDNORM, since this *will* wake up when the client has
disconnected. The downside is that it also wakes up when input is
available. So just sleep for a bit in that case. This means that on
macOS, a client disconnect may take up to a second to be detected,
but that's better than not being detected at all.
Fixes#7584.
This way the links are clearly within the manual (ie not absolute paths),
while allowing snippets to reference the documentation root reliably,
regardless of at which base url they're included.
Prior to this change, we had a bunch of ad-hoc string manipulation code
scattered around. This made it hard to figure out what data model for
string contexts is.
Now, we still store string contexts most of the time as encoded strings
--- I was wary of the performance implications of changing that --- but
whenever we parse them we do so only through the
`NixStringContextElem::parse` method, which handles all cases. This
creates a data type that is very similar to `DerivedPath` but:
- Represents the funky `=<drvpath>` case as properly distinct from the
others.
- Only encodes a single output, no wildcards and no set, for the
"built" case.
(I would like to deprecate `=<path>`, after which we are in spitting
distance of `DerivedPath` and could maybe get away with fewer types, but
that is another topic for another day.)
